ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 2S.-The sub
committee of the Populist state central
committee, to whom was entrusted the
settlement of the fusion question, to-
night formally withdrew the PopuIist

themselves to electing their congress

they will in several instances have the

Activity in Bonds.

NEW YORK, Oct 2S.-Bradstreet's financial
review tomorrow will say: While larger in
terests in the markets maintain conservative
attitude. the tone this week was bullish, and
the tendency of speculation has generally been
toward higher prices. The advance of the
Bank of England rate from to per cent on
Thursday was fully expected, and produced
no speculative Reorganization. Among the
most satisfactory indications OF the week was
the strength of advances in the bond list.
Governments were a feature, the new fours
rising from 115A to 117A, while both invest
ment and speculative issues of railroad mort
cages have generally been higher. Another
circumstance worthy of notice is that New
York stock exchange seats are quoted this
week at SIS 000, an advance of several thou
sands over the last transfers.
