Third Avenue deserves TO be considered
the chief feature Of the market at the
present time. Its pre-eIninence is not OF
an enviable character, however. The at
fairs of the company are in a pitiable con-
eition and although eminent fnanciers
are making strenuous efforts &c straighten
them out for heavy commissions, OF
course. there are those that believe re-
Ownership would be much the best ending
of the situation for all concerned. The fl
ing of a mechanics lien for sl44, 600
against the company yesterday indicates
that a legal adjudication Of its affairs is
quite possible. Yesterday saw another
tremendous break in the price TO "a and a
fraction. The price on Friday was 81. A
few days ago il was selling al par. At
the beginning of the year the price was 1855.
In December il was as high as 49, Early
las year the top price reached was 242.
Tie total declines. therefore, TO the low
price yesterday was 1853 points. The cap
ital stock Of the company is $500 GOO and
il will be seen that this tumble of les
points represents loss in the value of the
total stock OF nearly s27000,O0c.
The other traction securities have with
stood the strain of the selling o. Third
Avenue very well until yesterday, but the
bears attacked the entire group fercely
just before the close of the short session
and succeeded in causing a quick slump in
prices in them all except Metropolitan
which declined on Friday. Brooklyn Rap
i'd Transit sold below 20 for the first time
in several days, and Manhattan went as
low as Sc, closing on the bottom.
The anthra lite and bituninUus coal
stocks have been the strong features oil
the market during the week Several Of
the securities have been distinctly buoy
ant in the face of the general dullness and
depression, SO that they have attracted
much attention. The affairs Of the rail-
ways themselves have also been conspicu-
Gus on account of a number of earnings

showing made by the lines in all sections

election returns from oil over the state

any decided change from those already
received. The estimates sent out hold

The same places in 1895 gave Powers

These show u Republican loss of II per

Despite the Democratic gains In Knox
