The Stock Market Dull and Weak. A BREAK IN MICHIGAN CENTRAL GOLD STEADY AT 107. Government Bonds Firm and Rai roads Dull and Irregular. Money on Call Easy at 2 and 2 1-2 Per Cent. Wai.l Stbebi, ) Tcsguav, May 15?fl E. U.J Tlioro was a dismal futliug off id business to-day, the amount ot stock cbunging bauds ouly aggregating 167.000 shares. The Installation o( ttio new Stock Ki sbuuge oUlcers aud the beer brewers' show iu broad way iuay havo had something to do with It; but tbo most likely solution U to bo lound iu tbo fact that tbo Itroct, having worked over to tbo bull side, finds, it self long ol slocks, wfiicb meet a reluctant market whon odorcd for sale. Ttio absence of tboso steady customers, the chronic bears, is not compensated for by tno sinull investment demand wlncb is slowly withdrawing some ot iho boiler class ot stocks 1 rem tbo market, and iu consequence anything like a pressure to soli lulls to lie resisted by an equivalent de tire to buy. The ran go ol the ifieruiouiuter has some thing to do with it also. A day suddenly boated ui> to the eighties no more makes a summer, it Is true, tbaii docs u single swallow, but it realizes the lact that hot weather is close ut band and awakens hvolyvec olleotions ol past and gone seasons of midsummer dtil noss, through which stocks wore lagged by the sweat of tbo speoulutlvo brow. It is rather the period of the yuar to gut out of speculation than into it,"and the disposition of present holders to "let Smith walk!' Is evincod by tbeir readiness to transfer the load to other shoulders. Uosides, inducements to "hold of^j' ire scurcely as strong as they were. The great bonolits to accrue from u foroign war (which the hopes of the community mounted as a veritable cheual Ue battaillc) sucin to bo counted upon with less con fidence; tbo railroads have to encounter the cutting down of cunal tolls, and the coal companies are no whit better off . as to tbo lalo of their product than heretofore. In fact these latter corporations uru tbo chief drag upon the market, tud speculation would ho all the butler were they cut loosa Irorn it entirely. To-duy iboy unquestionably bad much to do with the irregularity and depression In prices. During iho first hour Delaware and Hudson idea need from to Delaware and Luckawnuna from 44 to 45, aud Morris and Essex from 68 >, to 70. It somehow got abroad that iho roprosomauves of the ?evcrul companies had hud a meeting and bit upon a pluu which would bo mutually beneficial, but wticu It was learned thai tbo purtios bad not met at ull quota tions turned topsy-turvy und steadily declined until the closing hour. A meeting was huld nevertheless ut Iho Delaware and Hudson ottico later on, at which all Iho representatives wuro present, and a p!au waa submitted and agreed upon and telegraphed to Mr. Uowun, the President ot the Heading Railroad Company, who arrivod in London to-duy, for bis approbation. It was stated that u prominent fea ture in the scheme was tbe suspension of production luring the months ol June and July. Hiolnguu Cen tral uppoured tins morulng us iho most mercurial of the active railroads, with the result of toppling over from 4a>4' to 41>4. and romaiuiug thus flattened out at the end of business. The closing of tbo books previous to tlio annual election created a sharp appetits lor shares lor purposes ol trausicr, aud the demand at ouo lima forced a difference ol 1?? per cent between tush and regular stock. The demand lor proxies Is particularly eager, there appearing to bo three parties in tbo Hold. Ttio result ot the triangular duel will bo awaited with considerable Interest both by share holders and speculators. The annual report ol the Kock Island Company Is mudo public, the item of most interest being, lb at after puyiug running expenses, in terests, ton per cent iu dividends uud losses upon braucli roads, thcro remains a surplus ot $65,068 u9. Tho decliue in Michigan and Central and the coal ?locks brought the rist ot tho list down with theiu, ami tbo market finished up weak and at the lowest figures ol tho season. TJIK BALKS TO-DAY.
