CONSIDERING A REDUCTION.
Interstate Lines Action on the
nnEGing md Tic Rntc.

Interstate Lines Action on the
Bngging and Tic Rate.
Mr.. p. II. Goodwin, general freight agent
of the Santa Fe, knew whereof he spoke
when he told the railroad commission that
the interstate lines were considering the re-
duction of the bagging and tie rate to ac-
cord with the emergency rate placed in ef-
feet by the railroad commission. Such a
reduction is being figured upon by the
lines interested and unless the commission
withdrews the rate from Houston and GAL
weston, the St Louis Texas common point
rate will drop in consequence The reason
for the publication of the rate on bagging
and ties by the lines in the Southwestern
freight bureau was merely to affirm the
same, as is frequently done when the rate
on any certain comomdity is in the least
doubt An error was made by substituting
a figure 3 for figure 4, leading the COM
mission to believe that the rate TO Texas
common points had really been reduced 10
cents. The common point differentia OF
Houston and Galveston under St Louis Is
II and IA cents respectively. The com
tariff puts in 21cent rate from
Galveston and an 1S-cent rate from Hous
ton The bagging and tie shipments do not
begin to move until In June or July, but
the Interstate lines contemplate settling the
matter as far as they are concerned during
the next week.

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, April 25.-The market for se- burities was sluggish and almost stagnant to- day Prices ruled below Saturdays close and while there brief pause at one time dur ing the morning In the downward course, due to strength shown by one or two of the in dustrials the sagging tendency of the market was practically uninterrupted. The trading was narrow and professional. and declines really represented nothing more than natural re- action from Saturdays advance. The supply of stocks continued very limited, holders ap- parently being content to hold their property for higher prices. Neither is there any very active demand for stocks at the present level. The consequence is that the movement of prices is rather narrow. There being genuine de- mand for stock and no real pressure of liqui- dation prices naturally lose day what was gained the day before gain the next day what they lose to-day. There was some sell ing in this market to-day for London account which may have represented liquidation by tirnid foreign holders There was some specu- lative activity also, and quite wide move ment of prices in some of the higher-priced industrial speclalties. Otherwise the market was in the hands of the room traders. The waiting attitude Of traders Is likely to con- tinue until the occurrence of some event gives a clear indication of the course or probable duration of the with Spain.
 The future of the stock market Is also de- pendent largely tho course Of the money market. There nothing in to-day's develop ment to indicate accurately what that course will be. There is some demand for currency from the interior.

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top ng- ures at station indicate minimum temperature for the days; those underneath it, if any. the amount of rainfall or of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the a5t twelve hours lsobars, CT solid lines, connect points of. equal air pressure; isotherms. dotted lines. equal temperature The word high means high barometric pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather; low refers to low pres by cloudy weather and rains. Lows usually first appear on tie Washington coast. When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast. rain Is probabe but when the low is inclosed with isoNars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon Is inn probable. With a high in the vicinity of Idaho. and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result
