MONEY, STOCKS AND GRAIN New York Showed a Hearish Tendency, but There Were but Few Weak Points. At Indianapolis Grains Were Quiet, bnt Steady The Jobbing Trade lain Satisfactory , Condition and Collections Easy. MONEY AND STOCKS. A Qalet 3Iarket In New York, Accompanied by a fleartth Tendency. At New York, yesterday, money on call was easy at 122 per cent, the last loau leing made, at 2 per cent., closed ottered at 2 per cent Frinie mercantile paper, 3'25 per cent Sterling exchange was quiet, but firm at H&7 for sixty-day bills and lor de mand. The total sales of stocks were 211,940 hares, including the following: Atchison, 17..r0; Delaware, Lackawanna fc Western, 4.220; Erie. 9.G50; Hocking Valley, 7,325; Louisville & Nashville. 0,000; Missouri Pacific. 4.2t0; Northern Pacific preferred. 31.teC; New England. 8,0 ); Heading. 06.CGO; 6t. Paul. 10.210; Union Pacific, 4,710; Western Union. 6,5&i. The stock market was again quiet and narrow. There was a general bearish feeling in tht. room, but Northern Pacific preferred was the only really weak point in the list London was a moderate seller, and afterwards reversed the position on the market There was considerable trading in Reading. Atchison and St Paul. , Mirther engagements of gold for export .-k'am restricted the dealings and had a like influence upon the fluctuations. The only really r strong spot in the list was in Hocking Valley, both the common and preferred rising over 1 per cent. The opening was in all casses lower, with exceptional losses extending to ? per cent The pressure upon Northern Pacific preferred immediately made itself felt, while the strength in the Hocking Valley stocks was equally as pronounced. The only features of the lata trading were the sudrteu rally m Lackawanna from 157 to 15'JL2 and the slow and steady drop in Missouri Pacific, which finally brought it below the level of all other stocks. Even the traders held aloof, waiting the outcome of the movement of sold, while the announcement that Wednesday will be a half holiday caused some Hesitation in trading. The market finally closed dull, bat steady to firm, despite some realizations in the last hour. Kailroad bonds were devoid of feature, and a selling movement in the Atchison incomes furnished the only item of interest in the day's operations. The bonds furnished $175.C00 out of a total of 21.414.000. Government and State bonds were dull, but steady.

SDBPMSE IN THE VISIBLE
Instead of a Lookeil-For Incroaso, Lake Ficurcs Fell Off 1,138,000 Dashels. rardridge's CrokerF, However, Damp Such Quantities of Grain in the Pit that Wheat Was Prevented Holding Its Advance. TRADING AT CHICAGO. Heavy Sales by Corn Operators Drove the Trice of Mai to 4 I'm. CHICAGO, April 15. There was a surprise to-day in tho visible supply report. The lake figures for wheat gave instead of an Increase, a remarkable decrease 1.13S.0CO bushels. On this there was a temporary Hurry, which put prices up to bl'sc for May and July. This was met by organized selling by Pardridge's brokers, and so disheartened the trade that the close was rather flat at but 5hc gam for the day. Corn left off at a decline of vsc in the May future and an advance of c for July. Provisions wound up tirm at 10c improvement over Saturday's closing price for pork and a gain of .05c each iu lard and ribs. In wheat the opening was at Uo advance and the market ruled strong, advancing an additional 5sc, eased oft' 405sc, closing steady. The early strength was influenced by the backwardness of the season being made so apparent by the various ofb'cial State bulletins. Some operators professed to see a bullish card in a dispatch from Washington saying a census of the House showed that the Hatch bill could not pass. Pardridge, it is current gossip to-night, is short of July wheat 8,000,000 or lO.OOJ.OOO bushels. Irwin-Green bought a good deal of wheat to-day, supposed to bo for Capt. Phillips, who has heretofore been quite a bear. In the corn pit Norton and Worthiugton sold out about 500.000 bushels of long corn early in the session. Outside of that there was no conspicuous individual trading. The prices were well maintained at from 42c to 42'bC for May, but weakened toward the end of the session, and in the last ten minutes the pressure all came from the sellers, who crowded the price down to 414c, and it closed at 415c. The story about a big long interest in May corn by the Cudahys. and tho prospect of a deal with a sensational advance in the price, was revived, but tho trade took little stock in the talk. Shorts and receivers bought sparingly. O. S. White led the selling, but the most of tho trade was scattered and of a scalping nature. The oats market followed corn closely all day. It advanced aM05c, and then weakened l4 0:8C. There were signs of improved support in the provision market after the first hour. The packers, for tho first time iu many days, were inclined to take products on May contracts. It was on some significant buying of short-ribs by Armour brokers the last half hour that shorts were induced to do some buyiu'g. and the best prices were made just at the close. Kyan & Co., the Chicago Packing Company and other packing interests were at work on the buying side at ditlerent times. A fair demand existed for' vessel-room, and rates held tirm at lc for wheat and 14c for corn to Buffalo. Estimated receipts for to-morrow are: Wheat. 100 cars; porn, 375 cars; oats, 8. 0 cars; hogs, 21.C00. The leading futures ranged as follows:

THE Indianapolis Journal DAILY, SUNDAY AND WEEKLY. The Journal in first of all a newspaper. Its primary object is to publish tho news, and to secure this it spares no .pains. 01 expense. Besides the service of two great news agencies,which cover foreign countries as well as the entire United States, it has a corps of Special Correspondents, who give attention to those events and occurrences that are likely to bo of particular interest to the Indiana public. Its Washington bureau: was established for tho purpose of look, ing after matters in whibh the Stato and its people are concerned, and is under the management of an Indiana man well acquainted with the local business and political issues. It has a correspondent in every town of importance in the State, and is constantly increasing its facilities for obtaining information from every quarter. Its stall of city reporters is large, and its local departments are unexcelled. As a news paper it is far better equipped than any other in the State, and welcomes comparison with its contemporaries in any and all of its departments. With all it endeavors to be accurate and trustworthy, printing the news, whatever it may bo, without personal or partisan bias. But while the Journal is non-partisan as to news, it is a Republican paper, and sets forth Republican principles.
