GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, June 3-AIthough extreme
ly dull and professional. the tone of today's
market was uniformly strong and confident.
Opening figures were irregular within a
radius Of v per cent. but subsequently be-
came steady at fractional advances. The
tendency to limit the activity to the steadi-
ly increasing group of specialties was again
pronounced. National Lead Common was
in good demand. as the result of improved
dividend prospects. gaining / Is per cent
from strong opening
General Electric added IL per cent to
FIRST prices on the revival of the rumor
that the company will likely secure the
contract for the proposed electrical equip
nent of Manhattan
Pacific Mail was advanced over 30 as
originally predicted by those in charge Of
erty.
Sugar was dull and at times neglected,
but sentiment in the main is favorable to
higher prices before the closing of the .om-
Tanys books for the next quarterly diyi-
dend.
In the regular list the Grangers were the
most conspicuous features at moderate
advances over opening figures Burlington
advanced easily under a fair demand and
VIII likely lead the group in the next
active market. Manhattan gained l per
cent on purchases by traders who were
noted among last weeks sellers.
The corrse of prices during the week
VIII depend largely on Lonaon's attitude
on the resumption of business tomorrow
and the character Of crop reports.
The street Is far from satisfied with the
reports of damage thus far received, many
OF them being contradictory and illogical
ana is awaiting more congruous details.
There are evidences of Individual inter-
ests having been considered in the compli-
cation Of certain reports previously sent
out, as the same reports did duty in both
the stock and grain markets, but with op-
the beginning of the rise which followed
the consummation of the bond deal were
not too low 1t might reasonably be con-
strued that those now prevailing oyeresti-
mate the extent of the improvement in
general business, cut it is believed that the
lower level WILL on investigation, be found
the more inconsistent. Should crop reports
be unfavorable, reaction would follow
Immediately, but the decline is not likely to
SO completely revolutionize ntiment as to
deliver the control of speculation into the
hands Of the pessimists. Cautious trading
and a decreased volume of business should,
and probably would, follow. but the short
side of the market, after the first furry,
will become extremely hazardous to the
average operator.
The trading of the last hour was un-
changed in character, traders trying to
adjust prices so as to influence Iondon's
opening tomorrow.
Some concessions from best prices were
recorded, but the changes were not signifi-
cant. The days trading disclosed the al
most complete absence of incentive, and un-
til one is found Inactivity and narrowness
are sure to follow.

A Suspicion That 1t May Have Been In
Regard to Mr.. Olney.
President Cleveland arrived at-the White
House this morning at 10 O'Clock, and short
Iy afterward sent for Secretaries Carlisle
and Lamont. He was in consultation with
the secretaries some time and after they
left sent for Attorney General Olney. who
reached the White House about O'Clock
this afternoon.
These meetings at time when the talk
of a successor to the late Secretary OF
State Gresham is at it's height gave rise to
spec eculations in regard to the appointment.
1t was considered possible that the
earlier consultation had been to talk over
the availability of the Attorney General
for the vacancy and that his being sum-
moned to the White House meant that he
was to be asked if he would take the port
folio of the State Department.
At the White House no information re-
garding the prospective appointment could
be secured. Secretary Thurber said that
so far as he knew the matter had not been
discussed.

The Greatest Good.
Charlotte News.

Charlotte News.
Patriotism should be a
ST. onger sentiment than par
tisanshp. 1t should be t n e
handspring of action and in
individuals as well as parties.
The common good should be
placed above party success.
The welfare of the masses
should be the ann of pollti-
cal parties, and that party
which has the interests ofthe
people most at heart should
receive popnlarsupport. whe-
ther it hp>penocratic, Popu-
list or Republican.
o II the Rrpuolicilnpnrty was
the friend Of the masses it
ought to commend their sup
port. If the interests of the
country would be advanced
by the surceSss OF the "Popu-
list party patriotism would
demand that we support that
party, If greatest good to
the greatest number can be
secured through the Demo
cratic party then we ought
all to be Democrats.
We do not believein nnrea
soning, blind craftsmanship.
Every man ought; to vote
and affiliate with n party be
cause he. believes in it's prin-
ciples and endorses its pro-
fessions. lie ought to study
the situation and be able to
act intplligently in these mat
ters. Nor ought we to allow
ourselves to be guided in our
action upon public questions
by selfish motives. Self inter
est is veryShard to keep out,
but a, broad, philanthropic
and patriotic consideration
of a public policy will help to
overcome this selfish action.
| Uniortunately v this broader
view is not taken. For in
stance, tn, protected manu-
facturer is nearly always in
favor Of protection regard
less of the hardships it may
entail upon nultitu'ies of his
fellIow.c citizens. The man who
has large accumnlations OF
wealth agree with Mr.. Cleve
land in views on the fnnn,
cial question because it is, he
believes, to his interest to do
so.
1t is the financial question
upon which we desire to lay
special stress, az it il fore
most in the public mind. Its
solution is~the problem of the
hour. Ii gold monomettal-
lism would be best for t h e
great masses we ought to
) take that stand regardless OF
personal interest. If binet-
allism, the free coinage OF sill
yer and gold, would bring
prosperity we ought to lay
aside personal preferences
and work for that. The pub
lie good should be our aim
and our efforts should be di-
