The stock market was active, feverish and Irregulnr to-day. and for some stocks very weak. Prices at the opening sbowed only a slight ebanis from tbe closing quotations of last evening, except for Union Pacific, which sold first at a decline of per cent, at 4ft. A decided weakness waa almost Immediately developed In this stock and In Pacific Mail, while tbe remainder of the list continued firm tbronghout most of tho forenoon. On rumors that tbe Central Pacific Company waa about to lasue a new mortfrage for 110,000.000 tbe price of that stock broke bwfore twelvco'clock to 28 J.

The.bulls In the general market claim tbat Pacific Mall and Pacific Railroads will assume a position In the market somewhat similar to tbat which has existed for some time between New York Central and West (Shore, and that at least Pacific Mall will probably break away from the rest of the list. At a meeting of the directors of Pacific Mall late this afternoon a resolution was adopted directing tbe President to tare suchSttps aa cod Id enable the company on and af May 1st to secure Its full share of transcontinental bualnesa. In tbe afternoon th market waa leas active but L'uloa Pacific touched 41 before noon, sold again at 4'1 and 41 and closed at 411. a Iohs of yi per cent. It Is stated tbat an etfort Is being made to secure tbe consent of Mr.

Astor to serve as a member of the Board of Directors in place of Mr. Gould, fci. V. White, leader of the bull party In Eacka-wauna, bought 10.WJO shares In one block, seller nl-xty daya, at 994, end bid for any part of 0,000 a bares more lbs same Dries. President Huntington, of Central Pacific, waa not in tbe city to-day, and no official information regarding the reported isaue of bonds could be obtained.

The statement la made, however, that tbe issue will be made for SlO.OOO.OOO, either debenture or collateral trnst bonds, and that tbe mortgage will contain provisions by which the bouds can be exchanged for stocks under certain conditions. It is also reported that Huntington, Stanford and others, who loaned the money to tbe company, through the Southern Development Company, have agreed to take half of the new issue at about par. Tbe report was renewed this afternoon tbat the 8L Paul dividend would either be passed or materially reduced, and tbe a lock tell from 724 to 10. but closed at 71H. Home idea of the range of the market may be obtained by tho statement that the total sales of six stocks amounted to 75 per cent, of tbe day's business, which waa larger than usual, of late.

Western Union, while remaining com para-tlvely quiet, was also weak, selling from 66 to out closed on a rally unchanged at 56J4. Market closed excited and weak at prices somewhat better than the lowest of the day. Comparing prices this evening with closing quotations of a week ago, tbe only active stock on the list which ahowa any gain is Missouri Pacific which Is up XW per cent. Declines range oetween 1H and 142 per tbe latter for Pacific Mall. Union Pacific is down by Central New Jersey, 43,: Western Union, 3 Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, xsorinern facing preierrea, 2YX; Omaha preferred, Lackawanna, 2 and others In smaller amounts.

Consolidated Oas Is, however, down 13 per cent. Total sales for the week, 1.616,000; increase over last week, 229,000. New Tokk, March 2 Exports of apecle for the paat week, Mining; Stocks.

Aa Ex-Member of the Legislature Shot and Killed by a Physician. er-ciAt. nrsrATCH to tii imqui bbb. Acsttn, Tkxas, March 2L Captain W. T.

Merl weather, member of tbe House from Orlo, one of the counties In tbe south-western portion of the State, received a telegram thla morning tbat bis brother George was killed In a difficulty at Goliad, the county seat of Goliad, yesterday morning. The party who did the killing la Dr. Getzwiller, the leading physician of Goliad. Meri weather, the victim of the tragedy, waa a member of the last Xegislature, and highly esteemed by aU the members of the House for his many excellent qualities of mind and heart. He was a lawyer of more than ordinary promise, and had taken a leading position at the Goliad County Bar.

He was about forty years of age, and leaves a wife and five daughters. No details of the tragedy bave been received nt this point yet, as the town of Goliad Is some thirty miles distant from the railroad and telegraph office. Captain Merlwetner left for the scene of the killing to-night. He stated that there was an old feud existing between Uetawiller -and his brother in reference to tbe title of some property adjacent to tbe town of Goliad. He thinks that this was the cause of the tragedy, but has no opinion to express as to whether or not his brother was the aggressor.

"If he was." said the Captain, "the matter ends here, and If not, I will do a brother's part by him." OHIO LEGISLATURE. sraoiAi. oiaPATCaT to tbs utansss. C01.CB-BVS, Oxuo, March xt, ia Senate. Tba Senate convened, pursuant to recess, at ten o'clock, with but six Senators present.
