Only about three of the active stocks bqow 'r decline for the woek, the rest bavin advanced and the grains extending from l.hf to 85i. The principal chanjra was In Chicago Gas, duo to tho withdrawal of the motion to restrain payment of a dividend already paid and the belief that the plaintiff In the case was not sincere or honest in bis proceedings.

The entire market has been benefited by an easier fueling rejrardtner moncv. The bank statement showing a heavy increase in reserve was nexpected. The declines for the day were chiefly Chicago Gas advanced fi and Chicago, St. Louis and Pittsburg1 ljtf. Pales In New York were 63,226 shares.

The future course of the market dopends largely upon the progress made In settlm rate difficulties in the West and Northwest. Fpon this subject a dispatch from Ht. Paul pays the action of the Lake Superior lines in maktntr an Independent schedule of rates will undoubtedly briwr about a speedy settle ment of the lake and rail question. What will be the action of the C'hicniro St. Paul roads remains to be seen.

At the New York conference they consented to a differential only upon the distinct understanding that the Lake Superior lines should baso their throutrb rates upon the 80 cents for first class freight. This basis was insisted upon bo cause under it the Chlcatro St. Paul roads would be able to advance their local rates from a basis of 40 cents to one or 50 cents. Now, however, that these conditions were not only objectionable to the Lake Superior lines, but, furthermore, that these lines baveannounced atariff based upon sev enty ono cents, the Chicago lines may possibly not be wlllinjr to concede a differential rate. If they do not It will simply cause a repetition of last season's demoralization.

No meeting of the Chicago Macs has yet been called to consider this matter. It is expected that it will be taken up at the regular meeting of the Western Freight Association, to he held In Chicago this week. Though the present outlook is not flattering for a peaceable settlement, still such a settlement is not impossible. From what could be learned in Ht. Paul the probable action of the Chicago lines will be to bring about a compromise, if possible; If not, to make a stronor fight for the business.

In the latter case it would not bo a surprise if the Cbicago St. Paul lines were to refuse differential outright and open the season with the same rates as are in effect by way of Lake Superior ports. Trunk Line executive oracers have been asked to vote individually on the proposition to restore Northwestern rates, to go Into effect witb openlnirof navigation. The great event of the week In local railway affairs was the settlement of the Heading controversy, giving the stockholders a representation in the Board of Managers. Every one regards It as a wise stroke upon President Corbin's part, and the opinion that the Heading property will be benefited thereby is universal, Mr.

Rice, who will some day probably be In the board, is a stayer. He has had practical experience in buying up stocks at a low fltruro and building up the value of the properly they represent, and he believes it may be done with Heading. The principal change in yesterday's local market was in Poughkeepste Bridge bonds, which advanced on sales, and closed at 85M bid. Brokers are laughing over the attempt of the bulls in Missouri Pacific to explain the conduct of Jay Gould. It is believed that Mr.

Xiould has been a seller of Missouri Pacific and perhaps other Western railroad stocks, knowing that affairs could not be fixed up among the Western railroads without the concurrence of Missouri Pacific. His trip to I Mexico, leaving his affairs in the hands of bis son, reraindB one of the Southern trip of a financier of this city who gave instructions to bis son to sell when be ordered him by wire to buy. Along came an order to sell a big block of Olrard Mining Company Btock aud the son promptly sold out all of the interest of bis father, who was a director in. the company. The father appeared deeply mortified when be returned to think big son bad made so gri evous a mistake, but ft was noted that the father did not replace his holdings and the stock never recovered from the effect of the sale.

Out of the proceeds of the sate of $3,300,000 of Atlantic City Hail road 5 per cent bonds the Philadelphia and Heading Railroad Company has put Its Atlantic City line In splendid condition. The second track is laid In places fully fifteen feet above the meadows, and the old track will be elevated to the same level. The accommodations afforded by the fine new depot at the other end of the line will be appreciated by the summer travelers. The telegraph poles along the line have been numbered and the purpose of this is that trainmen, linemen and track walkers may designate exactly where any accident occurs or any repairs on the road or telegraph line are needed. The Heading will cater to the excursion business from the country, and out of town excursionists, instead of being transferred to the Chestnut street ferry from tbe Baltimore and Ohio depot at Twenty fourth and Chestnut streets and from Ninth and Green streets, will be conveyed In the passenger coaches to Port Hicbmond, from which point they will be carried to Kalvn's Point by ferry.

Another important change which is contemplated to catch the patronage of the business men Is the establish i ng of a fast express, with vestibule Pullman cars, leaving Philadelphia at 4 P. and returning so as to reach Philadelphia about 9.30 A. M. The report of the Texas State Comptroller for the year ended September 80, 188A, shows otal mileage of roads in that State 8,161 miles, representing a construction cost of $846,659. 47H.

on which In addition to capital stock amounting to $177,454,000, there was a bonded indebtedness of $288,860,000. Total gross earnings were $8,827,927. or $1,000,000 less than unpaid Interest and floating debt.

MUSICAL WOLVES. A Plainsman Tells a Funny Story of a Venturesome Tenderfoot. Prom tbe New York Sun. Btil! further proof of the superior character of the wolf Is found, according to Mr. Mumford, in its musical taste.

He says that once upon a time a tenderfoot came to his cabin in February and engaged bis help in securing a number of wolf pelts. As the easiest way to accomplish this Mr. Mumford anointed the man's beds with asafetida and sent bim off up a gorge where wolves were known to bo. Wolves will alwayB follow such a trail. The man was to go to a tree previously pointed outandolimbinto the branohes, and from that perch Bboot as many wolves as be liked, for It was certain that the wolves in smelling the drug would make baste to come to him.

Tbe pelt gatherer started off as directed, but very much sooner than he expected he beard the bowl of the first amorous beast on bis trail. He was startled bv this and when a few moments later another soul ful howl made the air tremble he became alarmed. The tree seemed a terrible way off and lor It boned for dear II re. with the wolves In hot pursuit. Out of breath and half wild with fear be reached tbe tree and uo he went.

In bis excitement be left his rifle on the ground. A few minutes later a half dozen wolves were snarling and vanning beneath and biting at the bark of the tree in the most ferocious manner. The tenderfoot, being safe, recovered his composure after a little, but tbe wolves continued to snarl and fight under the tree. Then the man, to pass away tbe time until Mumford should come to his rescue, took a mouth organ from his pocket and began to play "Home. Sweet Home." As the strains floated out on tbe air tbe wolves stopped fighting.

A look of astonlsbmeot came over each wolfs face. They swnyed and stepped from side to side, and then down tbey Bquatted on their haunches, up went their noses, and, with one accord, they opened tbeir mouths and bowled as never before. No sooner did they get through with, the first bowl than they caught their breath and started in again. It was at this juncture that Mumford arrived. The sight of a row of wolve9 sitting up as an audience to such a concert and encoring the star performer In such accents was too mucb for Mumford and he roiled on the ground and laughed and shouted aloud.

Thereupon the wolves clapped tbelr talis between tbelr legs and Bneaked away through tbe brush, and tbe bunt was off for that day. SUBTERRANEAN CONVULSIONS. Men and Animals Driven From a Ranch br St ran kg Sounds. Special Telegram to The Timer. Humboldt Citv, April 4.

Internal convulsions of the earth, and of a most alarming nature, are evidently goinir on within a Bhort distance of this town. For tbe last week there has been a strong1 odor of sulphur and brimstone In the air, which odor has become since yesterday almost over powering; and which is accompanied by a constant trembling of the earth, varied occasionally by a slight, but very decided jar. The excitement produced by these phenomena reached Its height this morning when Hiram Madison, who bad a large sheep ranch a quarter of a mile east of town, moved bis family in, saying that beneath bis place, and for some hundred feet around, a subterranean cyclone of fire is raping. Ills sheep, that for day a had exhibited great uneasiness, had broken fold the night before, acting like mad creatures and resisting, with an obstinacy and even fierceness remarkable in these animals, an attempts to drive them back. Hundreds, on bearing Mr.

Madison's story, have gone out to tbe ranch, where they found themselves unable to approach within two hundred feet of his enclosures, so violent whb the shaking of the earth and so suffocat inur the fumes or sulphur. The noise of bubbling, boiling liquid is plainly to he heard and seems to be within twenty or thirty felt of the surface, thouirb this Is hardly likely, as the earth is only three and some fractions of a degree warmer than URual. At long Intervals a heavy fall, as of some rock detached, la to be beard, and the roaring will nearly die away, only to recommence shortly with renewed viror. All the vegetation on the ranch baa been killed by the sulphurous fumes and a large live oak tree has had all Its foliage turned a bright yellow, presenting a most beautiful and singular spectacle, while the water of a well on the premises haB totally disappeared. News from the ranch has just been received, stating that the shaking of tbe eartb has perceptibly diminished and the sound of raging fire has died away to a faint murmur, but that the sulphur is bursting from tbe pores of tbe earth lo dense clouds.

Unnmed to Cows From the Buffalo Courier. A curtouB Incident occurred on EHicott Btreet Tuesday morning. A milkman's wagon was standing on the street wltb the horse untied, as Is customary while the owner is delivering his milk, A farmer came along leading a cow by a baiter on his way to market. The sight of the cow so terrified tbe horse that he ran away at a furious speed down the street. The milkman's customers are now wondering how long it is bis horse saw a cow.

Jitstifikd Enthusiasm. One thing which our readers may have noticed about the advertising of Hood's Sarsanarllla, is tbe spirit of what may be called Justified enthusiasm, which pervades everything the proprietors of this widely known remedy say or do. There Is a tort of absolute confidence that "we are sure we are right: a babbl log over enthusiasm tbat we know we've got a good thing which, almost unawares, completely carries the passive man before it, and convinces the most skeptical that ''there must he something in It." The best of It Is that this enthusiasm seems to be fully Justified, Judging from what people who take Hood's Sarsa parllla say about It, Remarkable cures are fre queotly beard of, and Just now It seems to be In special favor as a blood purifier and sprlna medl cine. But after all tbat la said, the beat way to know about Hood's Barsaparllla Is to try it yourself. a 835 MARRLEY 8TM0N.
