New York. Aug. l5.-Speculation at the
Stock Exchange quoted down good deal to-
day; II was not unusual In view OF the sharp
rise of the past few days and the disposition
to limit new operations until tarln matters
are hnally adjusted, either by President
Cleveland afiXlng his signature to the senate
bill or the bill becoming law after ten days
have elapsed wltho al such action by the
President. Wall street regards a veto as out
of the question. The transactions to-day ag-
gre Iated only 2ll IS, against 1872 10 shares
yesterday, but the falling OF was largely due
to a decrease III sales OF sugar, which figured
for 500. against $4,000 shares yesterday.
AS early cables reported Americans lower
abroad. the market opened at decline Of "a
10 3 per cent, the latter in Louisville and
Nashville the foreigners had selling
orders in this stock, as well as
in st. Paul, having been able
to realize handsome profits. The
market took their offerings very we'll and
when the bulls took hold improved rapidly
sugar ran up from 1917 to 1854, Lead from
429l to "A, American Tobacco from 92H to 9iis
and the general list improved Is 70 per cent.
Rock island Chicago Gas. New York Central.
II. Paul and Western Union we're notIceably
firm. The advance was stimulated by adWces
from Washington that Secretary Carlisle had
stated that unless the Senate bill became a
law an issue OF bonds by the government
would be necessary which naturally strength
ened the belief that the "popgun" bills for
free sugar, coal etc, will fail TO the ground.
The further decline in sterling exchange also
had a favorable influence on speculation. In
the late trading Disulltng and Cattle Feeders
was the main attraction, declining from p !
TO 2Ois under heavy sales on reports that the
negotiations tor a - O0)O0J loan required
Dv the company TO take spirits out OF
bond had fallen through. The stock finally
rallied 10 2Ua, on denial Of these reports. The
general list closed at a react on OF IS 10 70 per
cent from the highest OF the day. . he net
changes show an advance of per cent. In
sugar and declines OF SODA per cent. In the
Grangers and Louisville and Nashville. Dis
tiners lost \ on the day. The market closed
