The extraordinary performance of the directors of the American Tobacco Company' at Wednesday's meeting was the absorbing topic of interest in Wall street yesterday. Criticism, cf th.e dividend policy wa3 uncompromising, and the directors were referred to in forcible terms; in fact, agitation towards an investigation by the gavernlng committee of the .New York Stock Exchange bas already been begun, and rumors are also current of injunction proceedings to restrain the piyment of the extra script dividend of 20 per cent. . The advance of ever 5 per cent, in the curb-bid-' price -Wednesday over the actual closing figure led the financial community to expect a bad "quarter of an hour" tor the short yesterday morning, and so, indeed, it proved.- At the opening simultaneous cales were made on 8,000 shares at 95 to 91, a against t5W4. Wednesday nlght'3 final sale. Tne decline as under a rush to realize. A rally to reaction to K. another rally to SHi, all occurred within the first fifteen minutes of business. 37,000 shares being dealt in In that time. The final price was 81), or without change from Wednesday's closing. The stcck f;cted up more than one-half of the entire dealing?. The general list was almost nezlc;eJ tending the manipulation In the Tobacco shares. The opening was frac-. tlonally hlncr all around. In sympathy with Improvement in the prices of American securities in London, and of some buying for that account in the New York market. A reactionary tendency a as soon developed. Influenced by the petering out of the Tobacco boom. General Klectric, disappointingly to the bull traders in it, yielded a sharp fraction, despite the news of the- formal execution of the contracts between the company and the Westlnghouse Interests. A moderate buying movement set in at the extreme low point, which carried values generally above Wednesday night's level, with the grangers, Louisville & Nashville, Southern preferred ervl Union Pacific most prominent. The lastmentioned was bought In expectation of favorable actlcn by Congress in regard to the pettlement of the Indebtedness of the Pacific railroads to the .government. ' Dullness 'and l.rarttlirl wrltViin a a rrfYTX. rinir U'Aro f ho the onlv ffature of IhV aftemton trading. The dealings almost throughout the ,11st were if th most professional character. No confirmation of the reported preparations for the export of gold on "Saturday were obtainable, the speculation, however, reflecting to an extent a slight but unquotable stiffening In exchange, and In the rates for call money. The greater part ct the loans made were at S'fc per cent., but the market closed at. 4 per cent. This condition of the money market, according to experts on the .values of investment .securities, -was the principal reason for the abnormally small bids, for the $4,300,000 of New York city stock and bonds offered yesterday by the controller. No direct payments on bond account were made at the fmbtreasury, owing ' to tho fact that the fourth Installment on the-government loan, which fell due early in the week, has been paid up. -The market closed dull and unsettled, but at slight net gains, -as a rule, in the railway shares. 'Hallway-tonda. were less animated, but the tendency of prices was higher. The Northera Pacifies led in activity, and advanced sharply on the approval of th-reorganizatlon Tlan by the foreign bondholders. The sales were $1,157,000. Some comment was1 excited over the rather pingular fact that no transactions were made In government bonds yesterday on the board. Some over-the-counter business was noted, however. To-day being Good Friday, it Js a holiday on the Stock Exchange. The following -table, prepared by L. W. Louis, Room 13, Hoard of Trade, shows the range of quotations: . ..

WEAK AT THK CLOSE
"WHEAT STARTED FIR3I, IJLT FELL OFF OX FEAR OF GOLD SIIIP31ESTS. No Broad Speculative IlnMlness on the Chlcnujo Bonrd All Markets Showed Declines. CHICAGO, April 2. All the speculative markets started firm find closed weak today. Fear of gold shipments was the leading cause of the weakness. Wheat, compared with yesterday's closing price. Was c lower; corn and oats each c lower. Pork declined from 15c to 17c, and lard and ribs each .10c. There was no general broad speculative business. It was confined strictly to professionals. The feeling developed in wheat early was firm, the opening being c higher and sold up c more, reacted c to 64 64c, and closed easy. Higher opening was due largely to the rumor that the Ohio crop report was out and showed a very low con dition, but afterwards proved to be a private compilation of a Toledo concern, which indicated small yield. Cables, .too, came d higher from Liverpool, and Berlin was up lm. The wintry conditions were more general than yesterday through the West, and this was also something of a factor. though temperatures were not essentially changed. The Price Current was not guite so pronounced as to - the conditions of the crop as last week. Northwestern receipts were very meager, but no particular significance was attached, to the same, as a gen eral blockade was reported at Duluth and Minneapolis, with all kinds of traffic at a standstill. In addition to fears of gold ship ments, the decline late in the day was at tributable to the fact that the board ad journs over Good Friday and traders were disposed to have open engagements on the long side with a prospect of warmer weather berore Saturday. - Corn was no more active than on yesterday, and there was very little change in Its spec ulative value for future delivery. May opened firm and c higher at 29c, and closed weak at 2yiS29e. The highest It soia at was zo'sc, ana us closing was the lowest. ' , Oats were steady' early.' but later became weak and on Increased selling by elevator people ana local traders, prices receded c and closed about the Inside with a net loss or ftv4c Trading was fair. " , Provisions got a strong start from light receipts at the yards. There was an opening improvement of 2c in pork and ribs, which brought In r.nsts of spIIom anri it hwas evident that the packers were anxious. in the end the market became weak and fork closed 7c lower for May and 10c ower for July.

CHICAGO, April. 2.-The wheat market has not been particularly active to-day. The cash demand for interior milling points continues only fair thirty thousand bushels taken to-day. Clearances equal, in wheat and flour, 2S5.000 bushels!, The price of wheat In the near future Is jlkel to prove more a weather question than one of supply and demand, and the indications favor Improved conditions on that score soon. However, we believe It is a purchase on all easy spots at present. Corn opened higher on strength In wheat, free selling by longs, the buying being by local shorts mostly. Trade continues light, with no feature. Receipts rather small, but look for them to Increase. Oats were strong at :the opening on wintry weather and free buying by some large shorts. On the advance elevator people were good sellers, and market weakened. Close is easy, with shorts largely covered. Provisions opened with fair outside demand and prices slightly higher. Local selling by packers and leading . commission houses soon eased prices. Stocks of provisions, as reported this 'morning, were exceptionally large and caused some of Its friends to dispose of their holdings. AT NEW YOHK.

By order of the Supreme Court, the sheriff of Carroll county was yesterday Instructed to show to the court on or before April 14, at 9 o'clock a, m., why he should not be punished for-contempt for not serving and returning an order in the Bowen tar case. Over the latter differences have arisen between the officials of Carroll county and the State, the latter alleging that $11,000 is due in taxes because of a compromise made by the coun ty officials without the knowledge of the State. It is alleged that the Carroll county officials have paid no attention to the Inter ests of the State, and now the sheriff is charged with failing to obeyan order of the Supreme Court. After the order had been issued by the court Attorney-general Ketcham received a letter from the sheriff saying that he had mailed the tax return early yesterday morning.. Mr. Ketcham has made a motion to set aside the dismissal of the case of W. J. Gucken, treasurer of Carroll county, against Nathaniel W. Bowen, administrator, which was entered Oct. 9, 1893. The State Board of Tax Commissioners will attempt to intervene. It has been alleged that the case was dismissed by the prosecutor of Carroll county without consulting Mr. Ketcham or members of the tax board. THE ORPHAN ASYLUM'S BEQUEST Will Be Paid When McLaughlin's Vlr-glnla-Avenne Property Is Sold. A final entry was made by Judge McMaster, of the Superior Court, yesterday. In the case of the Indianapoli9 Orphan Asylum against William McLaughlin and Martin Conaroe to quiet the title to a piece of property on Virginia avenue. McLaughlin was a. conditional beneficiary of a will made several years ago. If he grew up to be an honest and industrious citizen he was to receive $1,000 out of the Virginia-avenue property. A bequest of $2,000 was made to the Indianapolis Orphan Asylum, but in the event that McLaughlin violated the proVisions of the wlil, the asylum was to have his share. Conaroe married the wife of the decedent and became McLaughlin's- stepfather. McLaughlin, during his youth, was pretty wild and his twenty-first birthday found him an Inmate of the northern penitentiary. He served out his time and has since become ft. respectable citizen. There was a question as to whether his misconduct would cut him off from the estate and this feature of the case entered into the suit brought by the board of managers of the Orphan Asylum to quiet the title to the property. The Jury, in returning a verdict, found that McLaughlin should receive his share, but decreed that the title to the property should be quieted as against Conaroe. The Orphan slyumn will receive Its bequest when the property Is sold. BBsMaaasa---t CONCLUSION OF RIOTERS CASES. One Nonunion Man DischargedThree ' ' Bonds Reduced.
