CONFUSION. The

"CONFUSION.'- The second pro-
ductfon of this laughabIe comedy was
given before a fair-sized audience at
the Grand last evening. To lengthen
out the bill, Miss Remark and Mr.
Lothian appeared in a curtain raiser
called Husband in Clover" in which
the lady especially appeared to good
advantage. While Confusion" hardly
went with the zest and ginger impart-
city, it rs so clever and unique that it
in the hands of a less capable COM
pany than that ait the Grand. Miss
Cook, Miss Remark and Miss Truax
rather walked off with the llonors of the
piece. Neither Mr.. King nor Mr.. Blake
more brings out all there is in his role,
and the last-named gentleman grows
indistinct in his endeavorS to cultivate
a British accent AS for Mr.. King, he
utterly fails to draw out the wealth of
fun there is in the role of Sliggard
Mr.. Lothian played Mortimer accept
ably. Mr.. Jennings was rather too
grotesque as DR.. Jones, and Miss Henry
played Violet in rather a colorleSs man

WALL STREET.

New York, March 26.-The specula-
4ion today on the stock exchange was
professional in the extreme, and even
at that the dealings were on a more
limited scale than for some time past,
and the fluctuations in every instance
nearly narrow. All intervals the trad
ing came to an actual standstill. Bust
ness in Americans in London, after
the holidays, was on declining trend
the foreign dealers being sympathet-
cally influenced by the change IN the
speculative temper here yesterday from
the firm tone that had characterized
the late weak markets.
On the local exchanges the operations
for European account were on both
sides of the market, with most of the
orders, however, to sell. There was a
dearth of news bearing generally upon
prices, excepting a few crop reports
and railroad earnings, and slightly
easier tendency in money rates. This
last development was largely due to
the apathy in the stock market. The
earnings were mainly favorable, but TO
stress was made upon an item OF de-
cidedly encouraging character, namely
an increasing movement OF corn yes
terday and today the receipts of that
staple being on much larger scale
than during the previous week, al
Though shipments still show a con-
siderable falling off as compared with
this time last year. The specialties
were again the points of chief interest,
with sugar and Manhattan the most
CONSPICUOUS for irregularity in move
ment The first mentioned stock was
relatively active, and its course was
clearly the result of manipulation by

decline early and subsequently worked
in an erratic fashion, but displayed an
upward tendency in the late dealings.
The closing was at a net gain OF rs

The Bow and Arrow Man.

w. NJ. Eddy, who acquired a good deal
of notoriety in this city a couple of years
ago in connection with a skin game
known as the bow and arrow game, IS
again in the tolls. He was arrested last
evening by the police on a reCuisition
from Butte, where it is said he and
others successfully worked a game
similar in every way to the bow and
arrow trick they attempted here, but
were prevented by the vigilance of the
police from carrying to a successful
termination.
Eddy will be held pending the arrival
of the Butte officials

SAN FRANCISCO, May 26.-Sir
Henry Dering, the English minister
to the Mexican republic, arrived here
last night from the City OF Mexico.
In discussing Mexican affairs he
said: Business conditions are good
in Mexico. Copper is being exported

just at present Americans appear to
have the lead in the smelling indus
tries, while in the manufacture of cot
ton and wooden goods the Mexicans
are making splendid progress. Silver
is the money of the country, and the
great premium ON gold is tending to
lessen imports and increase local pro-
duction of cotton, jute and wooden
goods. The latter are more or less crude
but are meeting the demand of the
people

Mr.. Dubois said senators acclaimed
for more revenue. He denied that this
would place a great burden on the con-
sumner of beer. Beer was cheap, two
glasses for 5 cents, and the price would
not raise.
Mr.. Mills Oem., Tex) supported the

the opposition came from senators who

Mr.. Aldrich Rep., R. u expressed

Mr. Gray Oem., Del.) said the cheese
bill was confessedly not to raise rev.

most opportune to make the bill what
it purported to be-a revenue matter.
