BILE point of attack and was driven down
over 2 per cent. The bears also succeed
ed in depressing New Jersey Central
Manhattan and one or two other recent
ly susceptible stocks. But the sympa
thetic decline brought about in the rest
of the list was narrow, and gave subj
cient warning to the bears that they were
not to have things there own way SO un-
resistedly as yesterday. The Coalcrs
showed marked tendency TO recover. The
southern railways enjoyed the benefit OF
the very large cotton movement, which
resulted from the lifting of the yellow
fever quarantine and which has sent the
price Of cotton so near the lowest priec,
on record.
The whole railway list also was
strengthened by the decision of the SUI
premc court yesterday denying the right
of the interstate commerce commissions
to enforce absolutely the long and short
haul clause of the interstate law. There
was II marked subsistence of the Span
ish war rumors. One of the strongest
factors in the improved tone was the
large and confident buying for London'
account. Money in London shows an
easier tendency. Part of the buying was
also incident to the settlement IN progress
on the London exchange. The repeats
of railway earnings were many of them
very favorable. There were periods Oft
dullness and hcsitancy during the day,
and the total sales were less than AGO.

K boiIy participating. The meeting was
neiu IN charge by Mr.. Jeff johnson at the
o opentns ana Governor Hogg during the
5ai a oh; part OF the evening. The princ-
pc Pf' oDJect OF the meeting, the nomination
VI d mayor. was contaminated by the
nomination of the Hon. Jno. d. Mccall,
VINO, 1t was assured by his friends, would
accept the position, though he was not
present to speak for himself. With fhe
SITUATION so suspicious the meeting went
u step further and adopted a resolution
setting forth that it was the sense of the
meeting that every ward in the city
should mold elections at once and nomi-
nate party candidates who would endorse
the platform of this convention and its
nominee. The platform provides for the
cutting of the city into seven wards, the
seven aldermen to be elected by the popu-
lar vote of the city. All charter officers
are to be elective in future if the legisla-
ture can be made to grant the necessary
charter, and the city is to be conducted
ON very economical plan according to
the promises of this platform. Governor
Hogg asked for a minister to open the
proceedings with prayer, but as there
was none at hand he asked the Almighty
to either assist or sit still and look on
one of the most interesting little fights
that has been put up iir' many a day, ac-
cording to Governor Hogs forecast of
the situation and the forthcoming en-
gagement.
