The stock Market.

New York, Sept. 13.-The stock mar ket opened this morning with indica- tions that the reactionary period had come to an end. Prices In the railroad list advanced almost without exception under the stimulus of higher prices for Americans in London and sharp de- mand for Peoples Gas on reports that the dispute with the Indiana Gas com- pany had been adjusted. Severe de- pression in some of the specialties, not ably Brooklyn Transit, Manhattan, Minnesota Iron and Consolidated Gas, checked the upward movement. The bears sold the list freely and their con- fidence was justified by the renewal of liquidation induced by the decline of prices. There was stubborn resistance to the decline in some of the railroad stocks, but prices generally fell below yesterdays low point and dullness ir- tervened. The market was one of spe- cialties during the greater part of the day and some sharp declines were shown. Sugar was advanced at one time on the usual buying in anticipa- tion of to-morrows dividend disburse- ment, but dropped suddenly 3-3 from the top level in the late dealings and unsettled the whole market Metropol- itan Street Railway was also conspicu- ously weak The declaration of the usual quarterly dividend on Manhat- tan and Western Union did not avail to save those stocks from decline in of 1xyh h,.ol tive in the Gould stocks. The whole group sympathized in the weakness, Minnesota Iron, Illinois Steel and American Steel and Wire all suffered heavy losses. There were confident as- surances during the day that the pe- riod of possible stringency in the money market had passed. But the marking up of call loans on the board to per cent, detracted from the effect of these assurances.
 Sterling exchange held strong, how ever and there is belief that the present stiffness of call money rates Is due to technical causes, the influence of which is not likely to extend far be- yond the stock exchange.
 No difficulty is apprehended in pro- viding for the payment of the remain ing subscriptions on the government loan without strain on the money mar ket
 The evident strength In the wheat market gives confidence that the farm ing population is to see another year of prosperity.
 The bond market was rather neglect ed and prices declined in sympathy with stocks Total sales, $2,5l5,000
 Government bonds were unchanged.

resents the French people, actually pre- fers this phantom hope of regaining these provinces to lifting from the shoulders of the masses the vast weight of taxation which the French arma- ment produces. l believe time will pro- duce different result. Happily 1t is no longer nobles which control in eith- CT England, Germany or France. Commerce is master in all three. Rus sia was the one country in Europe In which the commercial classes were not in the ascendant. It is a piece of great fortune that the proposition should have come from that country, and too from the most military country in Flu rope. I believe the commercial inter- ests will make themselves felt in the other countries, and that even France will be forced into line by practical men, who are not at all anxious to load France with another debt to get back Alsaee and Lorraine. If the re- alization of the Cars proposition means that there cannot be another war with Germany, business men in both France and Germany will want to invest in that insurance.
 I am disappointed to read in the Paris Herald that the Czar's proposi- tion is not as warmly welcomed in America as one would expect There seems to be not a few people in the United States who think they have discovered a new gospel, and who want for the sake of a little national glory to load the American farmer with the same burden which the poor French and German peasant bears. The freedom of the American farmer and mechanic from military taxation is worth more than all the islands of the seas. E. P. ARVINE.

The Republican members of the COM

Messrs. Hill Comm and Fowler On. J)
were appointed a committee to prepare

and discussion of the various princi-

principle is to be voted on.
All the Republicans, except South

IN the proceedings, were present. A
resolution offered by Mr.. Johnson as

In which to declare his attitude, wheth-
er there was necessity for banking

principles he favored for incorpation
in the currency measure to be finally

PRESIDENT NJ. D. Ratchford Of tba
United Mine Workers expressed him
self satisfied with the work of the cor
Vention- He said: Il consider the es-
tapnshment of an eight-hour dav for
miners one of the greatest labor viz
tories of the century. 1t IS. In NV astI-

Col. w. r. Rend, Of Chicago. who
owns and operates coal lines in Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, expressed
himself as highly pleased with the re-
suits of the convention He said:
When the convention met a week ago
last Monday, predicted a peaceful set
tlement OF course, there were many
young delegates who insisted on being
heard, and the deliberations were long
drawn out, but moderation, which I
have counselled from the beginning.
has prevailed, and l congratulate the
miners of this country on their splendid
achievement"
Walter s. Boyle, an extensive ope-
rator In Indiana, expressed himself in a.
like manner. Mr. Boyle was perhaps
the strongest ally the miners had
among the operators for a uniform day
of eight hours. He said: THE con-
veution has been a grand success. The
miners have been very considerate in
their demands. especially as to the date
OF a new scale, changing the period
from Jan. Is to April l, and In so do
ing went far to conciliate the operators
In regard to the general terms We. Of
Indiana, have made a strong fight for

Mr.. Hill Comm favored the none

HELENA, Ark, Jan. 26-At 1850
o'clock tonight this city was startled
by a severe earthquake shock. Houses
were shaken to their foundations and
a succession of noises was heard that
sounded like immense explosions. The
people who had assembled in the Pres
byterian church for prayer meeting
rushed out Of the church expecting the
walls to tumble down upon them.
There were three distinct shocks in
quick succession, the first being the
most severe and the three occupying
less than a half dozen seconds. They
were followed by a trembling or shak-
ing motion and not by the usual sway
ing and waving motion. Telephone
messages from country points indicated
that the shock was felt at many places.

possible loss of a carrier or two as to

subject. Meantime, he declared that
the service could not possibly suffer
