the Board so far for the account of Dimick & Co.
have been stocks bought in under rule. They
were short of the general market. Foreign ex
change markets are affected unfavorably by offer
ing of loan bills in large amounts, as well as by
the withdrawal of money by cable from London
for use in this market, the high rates for money
on call here rendering such transactions highly
profitable. Brown Brothers have reduced the
rate on sterling bills to $4.87i4 long, $1.89 short
light, a decline of 1 cent.

Stocks—There was a much better feeling in
Stock Exchange circles early in the day, due to
the action of the Clearing House and to the re
sumption of the Metropolitan bank. Prices
opened 1(g.6 per cent, higher, the latter for Mich
igan Central, which sold up to 71. Shortly after
the opening a slightly weaker feeling prevailed,
owing to the announcement of the failure of A.
W. Dimick & Co. This was succceeded by strong
buying for foreign and home account and
there was a general improvement. L'nion Pacific
rose 3 per cent, to 47, Central Pacific 4'i to 42' i,
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy iy 2 to 116, Chi
cago & Northwestern 2to 105 y 2 , preferred 5 1/* to
130%, Delaware, Lackawanna & Western 3 to
113, Lake Shore z% to 92;;, Missouri Pacific 5Ji
to 73, Missouri, Kansas & Texas 1% to 14:'b,
New York Central 2y to HOii, Northern Pacific
preferred sfi to 49, Oregon Transcontinental 2^
to 14U, Pacific Mail 3 to 39, Chicago, St. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha preferred C to 90, Texas
Pacific lJi to 12, Union Pacific 3to 44, Western
Union Telegraph 3?i to 54U. At the Clearing
House new certificates were ready for delivery at
an early hour and the banks availed themselves
thereof to the exteut of $4,000,000. The re
sumption of the Metropolitan bank also had a
very favorable effect, inasmuch as it completely
eet at rest all fears that the suspension was of
the Marine bank character. The buying for Eu
ropean account was the special feature of the
market and every house with foreign connec
tions had liberal orders to purchase. At times
dring the day when the market lagged, these pur
chases turned the course of speculation. The
extent of this foreign buying movement is plainly
shown by the foreign exchanges. There was a
larger supply of bills than for a long time and
the pressure to sell caused a sharp decline in
rates. Twice during the day prime drawers re
ducedtheir rates, the last time to $4.86!i@
4.88 1,;. The high rates of money at this center
attracted foreign capital and leading English and
German institutions telegraphed their agents here
to draw on them for any amount. In conse
ouence of the pressure to sell, cables were heavy
and sales were made down to $4.86J£. The buy
ing of stocks for home account was also very
large, the brokers' offices being crowded with in
vestors. This is usually the case after a disturb
ance like the past few days. The stocks so
bought, it should be understood, are paid for in
full and taken out. This operation, aside from
reducing the amount of stocks to be carried on
the street, brings in so much fresh capital to aid
the money market. The investment purchases,
therefore, naturally had an important influence in
the direction of improvement. Speculation was
strong until near 2, when a report was circulated
that there had been a defalcation in the Louis
ville & Nashville office. This President Baldwin
emphatically denied and denounced as false all
stories of defalcation or other irregularities in
the company's finances. It was also rumored
that a leading stock house on Wall street was in
trouble, but this was proven as untrue as the
Louisville & Nashville story. Again the pur
chases for foreign account turned speculation
and the market became firm. Just before the
close the suspension of Fisk & natch was an
nounced and the market sold off 5 per cent, for
Central Pacific, 4 for Pacific Mail and £Q8 for
other active shares. There were evidences of
strong support in the final dealings. Compared
with last night the closing prices are 5 per cent,

COMMERCIAL
On 'Change.
St. Pa^l, May 16.—The attendance on the
board was very light yesterday and there was
a manifest indisposition to do business. At the
call wheat was offered at the same prices as on
Wednesday with no buyers. With the present
uncertainty of the market in view of what is
more or less a critical position, millers and spec
ulators will not buy excepting at very low quota
tions and holders of wheat know there is no
more hard wheat in the country than will be
wanted by the mills, hence their unwillingness' to
depreciate values. Corn was wanted at lc ad
vance with none offering. Oats were quiet and
steady; barley was unchanged; rye lc lower.
Ground feed advanced 50c. Baled hay was in
demand at Sl-Ol) appreciation with none offering;
there is in fact no hay in the market. Seeds
werequet: eggs were slow at Wednesday's fig

Family Retail Market.
The following quotations are prices current at
the public market, Wabashaw, Seventh and St.
Peter streets. The advantages of purchasing
here are two-fold: First, everything in the way
of provisions, groceries, vegetables, fruits and
even flowers in season can be obtained under the
same roof; notions, too, and stationery and toys:
second vegetables and garden stuff are fresher at
the public market; they are not shipped up from
below wilted and stale and unfit for food, but
fresh out of the market gardens of the suburbs:
the butter is ■ real farm-house, brought in by the
farmers, and not oleomargarine or butterine
which the best of judges cannot detect by ap
pearance. The butchers. in the market all kill
their own cattle, and none of them handle the
Kansas City stuff shipped here from the diseased
regions. These are reasons sufficient to induce
the public to trade at the handsome market built
by the city for their especial accommodation and
where the following articles can all be obtained,
and at the low prices named:
