REVIEW OF SPECULATION.
Great Expectations Were Not Fully
Realized This Week.

New York, Jan. G. -Bradstreet's fnan-
cial review tomorrow Will say: After
the extremely bulIish demonstrations
with which last weeks speculations
| closed, it was expected that the open
ing of the new year would be marked
| by strength of an equally decided kind.
| This was only partly realized this
week, new records as TO quotations
having been made in many parts of
the stock list, While the trading, par
ticularly in the last two days. has
shown an activity fully up to the re-
cent higher average. There was, how
ever, some disappointment in Wall
street, because when the stock eX-
change opened after the three days
holiday, a disposition to realize profits
took place, instead of the expected
larger public buying demand. A SEN
sitiVe money market in London. re-
sulting in rather bearish attitude
toward American stocks there con-
tributed to the hesitation, which made
itself felt in the general railroad share
list here, and which apparently caused
some of the professional traders to
temporarily take the bear side. The
easing off of quotations on Tuesday
and Wednesday throughout the mar
ket, was not at all severe. and in the
face of it the coal stocks displayed con-
siderable activity, while certain special
ties, like Federal Steel, Brooklyn Rapid
Transit and Peoples Gas, had effective
support and made rapid advances.
These movements continued on Thurs
day, by which time the Slight harden
ing of call loan rates, due to the heavy
January disbursements and changing
of loans. had entirely disappeared.
1t may be noted that on last Tuesday
New York bank clearings were the
largest for any day in the history of
the clearing house, and that, notwith-
standing this. the current rates for call
money can hardly be said TO have ad-
vanced above 4 per cent, while time
money was freely offered, and was in
as little demand as ever. London, af-
ter suffering somewhat from fears
about the relations between Great !
Britain and France and from the large |
calls which the season naturally
brought on the Bank Of England, main I

the fact that on Thursday 81, 500 coo
gold was taken there in the open mar
ket for shipment to this side. The

AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENTS.
Much Good Accomplished By the

Washington, Jan. 6.-The secretary of
agriculture has forwarded to congress
a report of the work and expenditures
for the fiscal year 1888. During that

as rule, steadily pursued their inveS-
legations, much useful work has been
accomplished, and the facilities for in

Wyoming and Arkansas. the, Sub-sta-
! tons have been abandoned. Much
progress has been made in the import
ance and thoroughness of the original
Investigations pursued. and the number
of officers competent to undertake such
Investigations has been increased. One
of the most necessary features of fu-
ture work is the practical application
Of the results of Investigations made
so that farmers can be taught to make
the best use Of discoveries. Aid from
the states is necessary for this work.
Much encOura cement has been afford

states, as the Importance of the work

C OLOR LINE DRAWN.
Proposed Legislation Concerning Ne
groes In South Carolina.

Raleigh, N. c.. Jan. 6.-Two bills have
been introduced in the house of the
North Carolina legislature, requiring
all railroads in the state to operate
separate coaches for white and colored
passengers. One Of the bills is an ex-
act copy of the law now in force in
Tennessee, which has been declared
unconstitutional. The other is similar
to 1t, except that it provides that any
first-class coach may be divided into
compartments, separated by a sub
stantial partition, in lieu of separate
coaches" A bill also was introduced
in the house to amend the state consti-
tuition so as to provide that "all the
moneys arising from the taxation of
the polls and property of the white
race for public schools, shall be applied
to the support of the public schools of
the white race, and all the moneys
arising from the taxation of the polls
and property of the colored race for
public schools, shall be applied to the
support of the public schools of the
colored race"
The school fund is now proportional
according to population, the negroes
getting as much per capita as the white
people, though they pay only about 10
per cent of the taxes.
