TWO RUNAwAYS.

There were two lively runaways on Saturday of last week. N. T. Hunger. ford's team ran with load of hay, up. setting the swagon and throwing MT Hungerford out. They crossed two bridges and through five bar ways, and ran to the barn, where they stopped. Nothing was broken but the reach to the wagon and one line. Neither the horses or MT Hungerford were hurt. On the same day George Hungerford's team ran, attached to blow. We hear one of his horses was hurt quite badly.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, March 2.--The stock mar
ket failed to show any positive strength
at any time during the day, and in the
late dealings the whole list yielded to
bear pressure on the news Of the threat-
ening aspect of affairs amongst the met
al workers in Chicago. The weakness
of the Iron and Steel stocks yesterday,
which was due to large selling orders on
Chicago account, was thus explained
The bears We're busy in this group of
stocks all day, and supplemented the
news Of the labor troubles with many
vague rennors Of purpose to defer divi-
dends, which have hitherto been foretold
on more or less reliable authority. Re-
ports were circulated also of enormous
rival combinations to be organized to
compete in this industry. AS the result
of this pressure the majority Of the
tocks in the group were depressed from
two and a quarter to three points. The
character, Of much of the selling was
made obvious by the sharp rallies on bear
covering, American Steel Hoop, Tennes-
see Coal and Iron and National Steel
recovering from two to three points at
different times.
American Sugar was subjected to
heavy selling all day. which was with
out other explanation than the com
tinued doubt over the dividend prospects,
but which was attributed to new bear
account. The stock dropped to par Tor
the first time since the summer of 1895
incident to the national political cam
paign. and fell further to 96as. rallylng
feverishly. and closing unsteady at a
net loss of GA. Third Avenue suffered
from additional liquidation incident to
fears of heavy assessment on the stock,
and fell an extreme 434 to level almost
two hundred points under the high price
of February last year. The stock raj
lied sharply, and was we'll supported dur
ing the latter part OF the day. People
Gas, Light and Coke Company's stock
was raided on the report of projected
proceedings against the legality Of the
combination. Consolidated Gas was
forced down nine points ON light transac.
tons. PULLMAN, American Sugar pre-
ferred, American Tobacco and Metropoll-
tan Street Railway suffered to the ex-
tent of from three to three and half.
The railroad stocks yielded Inw1llngly
until the late raid on the market when
large blocks We're thrown over. Chicago
Milwaukee and st. Paul lea ding the de-
cline with an extreme drop of two points
Baltimore and Ohio. New York Central
and Southern Pacific were also notably
affected. The late rally on bear cover
ing reduced the net losses Of the rail
roads to fractions except in the cases
mentioned. There was disappointment
that London did not respond with great
er enthusiasm to the news Of the rene
Of I.adysmith by hrvinp stocks, The
disposition there was to realize, and Lon
don was a small seller here. The pros
pect of heavy decline in surplus re
serves in the bank statement induced
some selling, but the preliminary estl
mates of the cash movement by express
indicate a small net gain on the interio
movement. This is attributed to ship
ments by interior banks to New Yorl

COTTON.
New York, March 2-The volume of
business in cotton today was smaller
than for any day this week, fact part
~ explained by poor teaegraphic service,
wires being still down West and South.
However, after an exciting opening at
an advance of sails points, large bust
ness was transacted within a range Of II
points, the general tendency of the mar
ket after opening advance. being to-
wards lower prices under a disposition to
take profits. The short interest in May
and August is said to be very heavy
and buying of these positions prevented
greater decline. Local traders were
afraid to sell owing to the reported short
age in May and August and also to the
continued public confidence in cotton and
the talk of 10 cents at New York and
six pence at Liverpool by influential peo-
pie. This kept the market in a nervous
condition all day and held down the
volume of transactions, very materially.
In the afternoon the market was rather
quiet with the trading mostly at an ad-
vance Of 3@7 points until just before the
close when there was an active selling
movement which closed the market easy
