Transactions In SC Louis and San Francisco wer small, but th common opened 1 per cent lower aud soon declined 1 per cent further. -On ths other hand, dealings In Metropolitan Street Railway ward all at advances, the pries finally- ruling 13 par cent higher. Tht greatest amount of activity was In Amalgamated Copper, The stock opened unchanged, toss 14 and reacted to the opening price. The Steel stocks wer a thads easier. Th market appeared unable to make a clear Interpretation thla morning of tha announcement regarding the acquisition of tha St.

Louis and San Franctsoo system by ths Rock Island. Prices moved uncertainly, aa though operators were undecided whether to take tha big railroad stroke as favorable or unfavorable to the general position. St. Louis and San Franolsco common suffered an extreme decline -of 1(4 per but first preferred opened up 3 per cent Th common later rallied 1 per cent. The stocks of th three systems most likely to be affected by th new deal, namely, Atchison, Missouri Padflo and Illinois Central, sold off only fractionally, and later were disposed to rally.

Wabash preferred showed a fair degree of steadiness, and after a trivial depression rose a small fraction ttbov yesterday's close. St. Paul held fairly well, and In fact throughout th railway list, where recessions were scored, 'they were limited to small figures, Th only factor besides the railroad developments were th Indications of further losses of cash by tha local banks, and there continues to be a considerable Interest shown In the fate of the Aldrich financial bill. In tbe Industrial list the United States Steel stocks and Tennessee Coal and Iron ruled firm. Amalgamated Copper, after a slight fractional decline, received some support Anaoonda was 1 per cent, lower.

The United States Realty ktocks and Distillers securities were strong. Sugar was about steady. American Smelting declined a falr-slxed fraction. Considerable Interest attached to the dealings in Metropolitan Street Hallway. Thla stock advanced a point abov yesterday's close and held Its gain well.

Metropolitan Securities also waa higher, while Brooklyn Rapid Transit was fully steady. After th first hour of business the tons of speculation became slightly harder In most directions. Government bonds unchanged. Railroad bonds firm, London's early quotations were not based on any Idea of active dealing, for when the arbitrage houses figured their total trade the sales war found to be somewhat less than 8,000 shares and tho purchases not more than 3.000 shares. But little outside business came Into the market this morning.

Traders as a rule were Inclined to offer prices down during tbe first hour, but they brought out few stocks. There was continued heavy pool dealings In Amalgamated Copper, and apparently soma stock was distributed. In Metropolitan Street Railway the specialists say that ths buying has been better than the selling. The tone of the bond crowd was not as firm as yesterday, and there waa less demand for speculative and Inactive Issues. LONDON, 3 P.

Owing to tha smallness of tha appropriation made by the Washington au- thorities for the steam Engineering De-' partment at the Brooklyn Navy Yard 1 all of ths men' lq ths department will have to take a day off besld. th regular day and a quarter allowed them each month by th Government. They will have to take this a their own expense. One-third of them took to-day, another third will -take to-morrow, and th last third will take Saturday off. Thera are about five hundred1 men In this department, and they dd not hesitate to express themselv.

on the point of their enforced Idleness. They do not bhuna the local authorities, but put It up to Washington. They say that lt Is a shame that department such that at the Yard does not have work to a number ol more men and work sufficient to keep them busy. They ray that lt is only through the kindness of ths Brooklyn officials that men are not laid off for weeks at a time every once in a while. The men on board th.

receiving ship Columbia are also rather wrotby owing to the fact that they did not receive their pay yesterday, the regular payday, and will not receive It until Saturday. Th money with which to pay tha men did not arrive at the yard until to-day, and It will take at least two days to count and apportion lt. This Is the second time In the course of a few months that the mens pay has been delayed, and they are becoming rather Indignant, as they think the paydays should be regular, as they usually make arrangements to get oft tbe Bay after. When this Is late a day or so they are unable to renew their leave of absence and consequently are deprived of the opportunity of making necessary purchases with their money. Capt.

He said that although the waves did not become any smaller they ceased entirely to break over the ship, quid alter Iayjng-to all right the decks were "dry as a bone. He said that during the entire night he only used about six gallons of oil to obtain the desired effect.

Brooklyn Trust Company, which recently leased th store property at 1190 Fulton street tor a Bedford branch, has purchased from Ernestus Gullck th Itase of tha adjoining store on th.

cor ner of Bedford avenue and Fulton ltreeL As a part of ths consideration the Brooklyn Trust Company turned over to Mr. Gullck the leas on 1190 Fulton street. The demand for store property In the neighborhood of Bedford avenue and Fulton street has led to brisk competition for the few vacant properties of this character in this locality. The Weed Catering establishment will be compelled to vacate the building 1307 Bedford avenue on April when their lease expires, as this property was recently sold to who intends to establish a branch In the Bedford section. Mr.

Weed has made many efforts to obtain another store not toq far removed from his present looatton, and had decided to negotiate for the leas of U80 Fulton street, when the anonunoement was mad that th Brooklyn Trust Company had leased It for a term of yeara Mr. Weed subsequently secured the lease on the store at 119 Fulton street, adjoining the Bre-voort Bank. This property Waa, In his opinion not aa desirable as th several doors below and aa soon aa Mr. Weed learned of the exchange of leasts between th Brooklyn Trust Company and Ernestus Oullck he began negotiations, along the aame lines with Mr. Gullck with ths result that the Bedford office of the Ernestus Gullck Company will after April 1 be located at 1196 Fulton street and Mr.
