did Not wait ON Congress.

Some time ago the Western roads decided
that they would not grant reduced rates to
several of the large meetings of the year
until they saw whether or not Congress
would pass the anti-scalping law. They
were afraid that in the event of its not be-
ing passed they would have again the old
decentralization in rates that has confronted
them after all the large gatherings The
Cuban trouble has prevented Congress from
taking any action on the anti-scalping law
bill, and now the roads have been compelled
to make ra les for two of the meetings
which they declared they would not do until
after the fate of the bill was settled They
have voted in favor of a rate OF one fare
plus 81, for the meeting of the American
Medical Association at Denver in June. ard
for the annual meeting of the Elks in New
Orleans in the early part of May.

Prices of Stocks Again Fall.


 New York, March 17.-There was a complete reversal of sentiment on the stock exchange to-day compared with that of the earlier part of the week, and prices sagged almost continuously The losses averaged nearly per cent in the standard shares and were more pronounced in the specialties, where in one case the decline exceeded 4 per cent. Trading was dominated by the announced completion of the Maine board of inquiry report, the failure of the Pacific roads to reach an amicable agreement upon passenger rates and the heavy selling by houses with Washington connections. A favorable factor which had little influence was the continued influx of gold The pres ent movement, including to-day's en- agreements of $1,SoO,OOO and the $5,5OO,- 900 en route from Australia, is in excess of $3O,OOO,OOO.
 The continued ease of money likewise attracted little attention. The resump- tion of uneasiness as to the general Cuban situation seemed not to be shared on the foreign bourses, where Spanish fours advanced, although this may have been due to the announce ment that the interest payments which had been in doubt would be made The bears offered round amounts of the grangers, Sugar, Manhattan, Metropol- itan Street Railway and other promi- nent securities.
