A DAY IN WALL STREET.
The Buying Demand Came Almost En-.
tireIy From Profssssonal
Sources.

NEW YoRK, Feb. 15.--The stock mar
ket Wednesday showed continuance of
Tuesdays strength in the early dealings,
but the buying demand came almost al-
together from professional sources, with
the purpose Of inviting outside demand.
The outside demand failed to mnterialize,
business from the commission houses
continuing on very small scale. In
fact, selling orders to some extent came
on the market from commission houses,
which were attributed to western ac-
count, but which were without explana-
ton.
The professional buyers grew tired
and sold to realize when the futility Of
the efforts to attrack outside buying was
perceived. Several points Of positive
weakness were developed by the search.
ing efforts Of the bears and stop loss or
ders were uncovered by offerings prices
down. The result was a general reac-
tionary tendency, which wiped out prae-
tically all of the earlier gains and estab-
ished some sharp losses in special
stocks.
The shorts covered before tho close,
causing sharp rallies at the weak spots
and a general stiffening Of tho whole

was firm and net changes in the majority
Of stocks small. Continued heavy buy
ing was in evidence in Pennsylvania,

was attributed to operutions by specula-
tive pools.
Sugar fell az from the top, Federal
Steel ~, Pacific Mail ~ and Baltimore

take profits on the pending passage by
the senate Of the financial bill, which Is
taken for grudted, and which has been
the basis Of some speculation on account
Of its provisions for expanding the cur
rency. Money on call continued Offering
in abundant supply, so that speculntors
were not made uneasy by the evidences
Of absorption Of cash by the sub-treas.

Not Grant Injunctions In the
Kentucky Cases.

, CINCINNATI, Feb. 15.-In the circuit
court of the United States Judge w. II.
Taft denied tho motion for preliminary
Injunction in both tho cases from Ken
lucky, declaring this court had no juris-
diction.
While the court held that no inJunc.
ticns would issue under these bills, yet
1t also held that after tho cases had been
heard in the state courts, they could get
in on error for review in the United
States supreme court. After the decision
was announced, former Governor Brad.
ley and his associate counsel announced
that they were unable to state what
would be the next step of the Repnbf-
can state officers Of Kentucky.
Counsel for the plaintiffs held a long
consultation after the announcement Of
the decision. Governor Bradley and his
associate counsel, after their oonsulta-
ton, said they had no doubt. either Of
the ultimate possibility Of a hearing Of
these cases in the United States supreme
court, as indicated by Judge Taft, or Of
the final result, but at present counsel

WASHINGTON, Feb. I5.--A vU.e is due
ON tho financial bill in the senate today.
Debate under the ten-minute rule, Wed.
nosday, was rather lively
Late In the afternoon test vote, in
dicating approximately the majority on
the passage Of the bill, was taken. Mr..
Chandler rep. N. HI offered an
amendment to authorize the President
to appoint commissioners to any inter.

might be called. Walcott said this was

In the way OF international bimetallim.
Some Of the opposition senator's ar

catch votes,
AT one point, Mr.. Allison suggested
that the trouble with senators on the
Democratic side was that they were not

Were silver monometallists. He said:
"There is not single line or syllable
in this bill which puts in the way of in

Mr.. Jones (Ark.) expressed his surprise

The reason for the presentation Of the

pess Places.

HAsHIsBURa, Feb. l5.--Attorney Con.
eral Ellin rendered an opinion to Au.
ditor General McCauley on several ques.
tions connected with the mercantile tax
law passed by the last legislature. Mr.
Elldn says the new law contemplates
tho payment OF mercantile taxes by the
samc class Of dealers who were required
to pay under tho old law, and that only
those persons who can be properly
classed as merchants or dealers in goods,
wares aud merchandise. and who have a
permanent and fixed place Of business,
should be included In the mercantile up.
piaisers' List.
He also says that the oct Of April 90,
1881 which provides for the publication
OF tho mercantile appraisers lists in
newspapers, still remains in full force
and effect There viii he no necessity
to designate in the published list the
amount Of mercantile tax paid by each
dealer because there is no such classif.
cation. ...-
MIR. El!dn says the list should contain
the name OF each dealer togoi er with
his business address and the lind Of
business ho is orgaged in.

Mrs. Chickcriug Asked That No Consres.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.--At the re-
quest of Mrs. Chickering, wife of the
late Representative Chickering, of New
York, there is to be no congressional
funeral in connection with the inter.
ment Of the deceased congressman, and
the senator's and representatives hereto
fore named as an escort have been mott
fled that the congressional party will be

This is the only case in recent years
III which the fornalities of such fu.

GUS character Of such affairs.
A dispatch from Albany says that Mr..
Chickering's friends there have been
aware that for some time he was af-
flicted with lnelancholia, following a
severe attack of typhoid fever.
The speculation about the manner of
death led to the conjecture that the man
may have been seized by a fit OF tempo
rary insanity from the pain of rheuma-
tism, 81 which he had made complaint,
and have jumped out of the window in

The suit of Beckham against Taylor,

fort. The sheriff had not succeeded in
serving notice on Governor Taylor, and
the chances of his doing SO did not seem

A WIDE LATITUDE OF DEBATE.
The Legislative Bni Was Up In ths
House.

f..
WAsHIxaToN, Feb. 18.--It was the in.
tention Of the Republican leaders in the
house to coll up the Porto Rican tariff
bill tomorrow, but there was such de.
mand for time to discuss various ques-
tions during the general debate upon
the Legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill, which was called up,
that Mr.. Payne gave notice that he
would allow the Porto Rican bill to 90
over until Monday.
The debate upon the legislative bill
strayed far from the bill, touching the
question OF government deposits in ma.
tional banks, reckless expenditures for
pensions and finally drifting into the
question Of election methods in Mis-.
souri. Mr.. Bartholdt (Mo.) raised the
latter question by attacking the Nesbitt
law, and provoked long reply from Mr..
Benton lMo.).who, in turn, aroused Mr..
Pearce MOI Some very caustic things
were said on both sides.
