BRISK DAY IN THE MARKETS A Frantic Unloading of “Long” and Heavy Selling of “Short” Wheat. A Very Marked Decline frem the High Prices of Tuesday, a Portion of Which Is Heoovered Hiring the Afternoon. MONET AND STOCKS. The Mew York Market Opens Dull, and Closes at Slightly Lower Prices. New Tore, April 16.— Money on call continues easy at 11$ per cent., elosing at 1 per cent Prime mercantile paper, 4#5 per cent Bar silver, $1.075. Foreign exchange was quiet and firm at unchanged quotations; actual business was done at $4.85$ and $4.875. The sales of stocks to-day aggregated 224,913 shares, including the following: Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, 29,700; Lake Shore, 12,390; Northwestern, 18,300; New York Central, 6,600; Pacific Mail, 36,600; St. Paul, 25,300; Union Pacific, 57,400; Western Union, 9,400. Government bonds have continued quiet and quotations steady, except for the threes, which are |c lower, at 101$e bid. There was a sale of the fours, coupon, at 121|. State bonds quiet, but the Alabamas show a alight advance in quotations, while Georgia •evens are a shade lower. Railroad bonds have been strone for a majority of the issues traded in, with a well-distributed business. The market was heavy at the opening this morning, with both bulls and bears selling—the former to realize profits—and the early dealings were accompanied, by declines of |®s per cent. This was followed by a moderate reaction, and for the first hour the market became very dull, and fluctuations were limited to a narrow range, but the tendency was toward lower prices. There was a little more life after 11 o’clock, accompanied by a show of strength, which was lost in the latter part of the day, and the market finally closed irresrnlar at prices that are from 1 to i$ percent, under yesterday. The announcement was made during the day that the Central Pacific railroad has not agreed to accept the proposition embraced in the resolution adopted by the Pacific Maii directors yesterday, together with the statement by Mr. Huntington that he did not think the resolution would be accepted. This was the only news to affect values. Mr. Huntington said, however, that the companies were working harmoniously at present, and, while the Central Pacific had not been asked to extend the subsidy to June, he thought an extension would be granted if desired. The market exhibits a strong undertone, and resists attacks with persistency. The bulls claim there are very few stocks in the market, and that it is heavily oversold. The only activity in to-day’s market was developed during the first two hours, business thereafter growing extremely dull as the day advanced. The total sales were 224,923 shares, which is 131,000 less than yesterday, but considerably larger than for several days preceding. The trading in Union Pacific, Pacific Mail and Lackawanna continued to be features of the day’s dealings, the sales of which amounted to about 55 per cent of the day’s business. Union Pacific opened $ lower, at 475, declined to 4G$, rallied to 475, sold down to 465. and back to 46$ in the afternoon. After midday it was less active, at 46| ®475®47, a net loss of $ per cent. It is stated that the company has settled all disputed claims with the government by paving $917,000 cash, and that its tonnage is 33 per cent, greater than at this time last year. Pacific Mail was unchanged, opening at 555, from which it fell to 545. rallied to 555, sold again at 545, back to 56, and closed at 55, a loss of | per cent Lackawana was prominent for its weakness in the forenoon. In the afternoon it was very dull at a decline of Is. The other active stocks followed listlessly in the wake of those mentioned, the grangers the next most active, with St. Paul this evening $ lower, and Northwestern down §. Western Union is also $ lower, Central of New Jersey, {; Chicago, Burlington & Quincy $, and Rock Island, -J. The market closed with the following prices Did:

The regular session was marked by great weakness and frantic unloading of “long” wheat, and some evidences of heavy “short'’ selling. This was due to peaceful tenor of the cables and the report that the Czar himself had personally sought an amicable understanding with England. The market for June wheat dropped to 87|c, or nearly 8c under the high prices of Tuesday. The reaction was great in the afternoon, when the official denial of Gladstone, in the House of Commons, became known, and the market rallied nearly 2c from the bottom, with a strong feeling on the curb. The receipts were smaller, with larger claimings from the seaboard. The crop repor ts do not improve in tone, but all else save war appears to be ignored by the traders. The corn market was dull and heavy on the regular board, but the greater portion of the decline was recovered in the afternoon. Large receipts and the severe decline in other markets affected oats, and the market fell off l®2e, but the greater portion of the decline was recovered. Mess pork fell off heavily aerain, declining 35®40c on the regular board, but rallied 20c on the afternoon board. Lard ruled 71® 10c lower. The flour maiket ruled somewhat easier, but no appreciable change in prices occurred. In wheat the speculative trading was on a largo scale, with sharply lower prices prevailing on the regular board. The market opened $c lower, receded $c more, then rallied sc, but, under heavy pressure, broke off again, declining in all 3c from the highest point in the morning, and closed 3sc lower than yesterday.

Continuous Rain Acting as a Wet Blankot on Trade. IITDIANAPOIrfS, April 16. The markets to-day were rather sluggish yet the volume of trade is as large as eould be expected under the circumstances. The weaker grain and provisions markets were the grounds for much talk, largely of a speculative character, and have, at least, severed to turn the attention of the grumbling business to the probable results should the hostilities across the water actually commence. Locally there were no changes in values calling for special mention, Receipts of eggs, butter and poultry are more liberal, and while prices are not quotably lower they are not so strong as in the early part of the week. Regarding the commercial situation the country over, the New York Shipping List of the 15th says:' “Aside from the influences of a threatened war between two great European powers, which has most directly affected speculative markets, the general situation of trade has developed but little change since the close of last week. There has been a slight increase in the volume of business in several departments of home trade, but the season continues backward and the stimulating influence of an active spring demand is still lacking. The movement in dry goods and groceries has shown no general; improvement Although the absorption of supplies has quickened, in some localities, the industrial activity of the country is still halting, embarrassed either by labor disturbance or production that is in excess of requirements, and the financial situation at all important money centers still reflects a disposition to hoard money, because of a want of confidence in available investments, and an absence of demand for commercial purposes. In other words, so far as the actual business accomplished during the past three days is concerned, the existing conditions are much the same as they have been for several weeks past, and except the surface indications of the war excitement, nothing has transpired to materially change or quicken the current of commercial affairs. The European war cloud has naturally imparted a temper of feverish uncertainty to all speculative operations, and fluctuations in values have been directly and almost wholly under this influence, while the anxiety to discount the future, that has pervaded all departments of commercial activity, has resulted in a feeling of hesitation, that has restricted and retarded the negotiation of fresh transactions. That a war between two such great powers as England and Russia will have a direct and important bearing upon the domestic and foreign trade of this country, there is no difference of opinion, and it is generally conceded that whatever may be the first effects of a declaration of war, the commencement of hostilities will eventually benefit us, but in what direction and to what extent this improvement will be experienced, opinions, even of conservative authorities, are by no means in harmony. ” •

GRAIN. It was an off day in the local markets, and bidding on ’Change was slow and cautious. The Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat: The “bulls” are not quite so numerous as they were a few days ago. Alas for the confiding souls that looked for the market to touch $1.25 “without a break.” If questioned, they might be able to give some information as to the number of cross ties between the Hoosier capital and their rural homes. Local markets, in sympathy with the general decline and weakness, have gone off three points, and dealers are more and esirous to sell than buy. Receipts are more liberal under the sudden boom in prices. Futures are an uncertain quantity.
