STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. June 22.-The stock mar
ket to-day again gave demonstration
of it's astonishing capacity for sustained
increase of prices with only temporary
pauses and trivial reactions. The matur-
ing plan of the committee of directors or
the Chicago and Northwestern for re-
funding the bonds of the company so as
to effect a saving, which may be applied
to the stock, has become the central OBJ
iect of interest in the market. The up
ward tendency of prices which radiated
from this stock ultimately permeated the
whole market, carrying even the INDUS
trial stocks, some of which had sagged
during the morning, to higher plane.
Northwest's extreme rise was 3A. Omaha
Ias being nearest in relations to North
west, followed its course with closest
sympathy But the Vanderbilt stocks
were all strong in sympathy. Lake
Shore made a new record price, Jump
ing 81 to IT'S. This was doubtless on
exact information of the benefits to ac-
crue to the stock from the refunding of
the bonds, the time of the exchange Of
the old bonds for the new 312's expiring
tomorrow. The New York, Chicago and
ST. Louis stocks, on account of the close
relation of traffic interests with Lake
Shore, also showed marked advance. The
first preferred was bid at II, against 30
bid yesterday. The common stock gain
ed ~ and the second preferred 2. Lacka-
wanna gained 49, to 1856 on definite an
nouncement that the regular quarterly
dividend will shortly be declared. A
striking feature of the markets course
was the comparatively small trans
actions on which prices rose. This wis,
of course, more markedly true Of the
high priced investment stocks, very
small supply Of which is offering in the
market at any time. A quickened demand
naturally marks up the price very sharp
". But the volume Of transactions as a
whole was not large and the dealings
were lacking in animation all day. Sugar
and Chicago Gas, which usually occupy
so large a share of attention, and some
other specialties, were rather heavy and
neglected all day, though they showed a
recovering tendency before the close.
Southwestern Railroads were particularly
strong on account Of the good outlook
for business in that section. Continued
good crop reports sustained the market,
particularly the Changers. The an
nouncement of 100000 shipment OF
gold for Thursdays steamer, and the
probability that more will go, did not re-
new yesterdays rather Fictitious alarm
on the subject. The weeks exports OF
general merchandise from New York,
, amounting to $7,909,6S0, a decrease of
S2,17S, 124 from last week, indicates one
source of the strength in exchange.

Cause of Free Silver Craze.

The causes of the free silver craze arc
thought by the Baltimore Sun to be
'the same which caused the greenb3ch
heresy TO find advocates in so many
states of the union 2O years ago-the
feeling of unrest and a desire for 4
change, no matter what, produced by
hard times, bad business and lack OF
employment-the desire, conscious or
unconscious, of debtors 10 scale their
debts by paying them in a deprecated
currency-the vague idea that more
money in circulation means more
money in each individuals pocket, with
out reference to his means or oppOrtu'
nifty to carr or acquire it."
