The Hartford Time has been attempting to soil Senator Ha wley's reputation by raking up the polities of years ago in the hope of finding something which would stick to him. Its attempt has attracted some little attention and about an equal amount of contempt In refer ring to its numoereu ui 1 1 Hons the Waterbury American find.) speaks of them as possibly possessing some antiquarian interest but as of no importance at this time, when they ore far from being "live issues" in any setise of the word. Says the American: The single point calling for denial to the Tim' arraignment, as it seems to us, is that "Hawley pledged his influence in lxxOto make Sperry post-inastBr-geoeral This is the only specific charge-In the entire ten that affects General Hawley to day. It shows, if true, that he stooped to conquer, too low for honest Joe Hawley. although in the majority of our publie men such a bargain would be overlooked as a matter of course, and although Mr.

Hperry would, in ail probability, have made an excellent postmaster-general. It hadn't occurred to us that any portion of th TiWi "aj-rakmment" was worthy of deni al or any other comment than the ooutempt of slience, Due tne imer-ica mo "single point" alluded to as one "calling tor denial," we can gratify it. We tre authorized by er-Postmaster Sperry to state, in the most emphatic and unequivocal manner, that the assertion that '-Hawley nledcred his influence in lhQ to make Sperry postmaster-general" is iu word and implication, absolutely false; that neither in 180 nor at any time was there any pledge, bargain, agree-mentor understanding between Senator Hawley and himself regarding the postmaster-generalship or any other office. Iot a word was ever exchaneed between them regarding any pledge or promise of support, direct or im plied. It is true that manv senators, state officials.

ond representatives in New England did urge the appointment of Mr. sperry as postmaster-general in lHl, The movement was started at Washington without Mr, Rnarrv's knowledge. aud whether Senator Hawley did or did not join in it is unknown to him to tnis nay. une thing is certain neither Senator Hawley nor any other Sew England senator or representative was asked by Mr. Sperry for support or pledge of support, nor was any such pledge given.

THE CAMPAIGN. The democratic caucus in Stamford was a stormy affair, in which General F. A. Marden, Lawyer Olmsted, and ex-Representative bwai't-wout got together by the A Kew London correspondent of the iSew York Tribune mentions the Hon. Richard A.

Wheeler of Stonington as a probable republican candidate for senator from the Ninth district. Speaker Tibbits has accepted an invitation to open the campaign in New Britain with an address before the Young Men's Republican club. THE PRBSIDESTtAl. DISPENSER. umnn, nuru nwi imi.

iwuiuiu lunuc tire dlsoenser of Cleveland patronage in Connecticut Baxton Journal. Judging from all the prominent appointments made in the state, Mr. Barnum must have been selected as presidential "dispenser" for Connec ticut about March 4, 1x85, sor previously. It was probably about the time that Gorman was made "dispenser" for Maryland. Barnum and Gorman are two of a kind and the reform President likes the kind.

INTERESTING RfUORH. (Bridgeport News.) There are some queer stories afloat in refer ence to that Stevenson-Barnum-Osborn busi es. It is said that the Hon. William H. Bar num has been in Colonel W.

H. Stevenson's New York offli-e within three or four days. It is further reported that Henrv A. Bishon has been over to the New Haven iefisfci office within the same time. It is known thatColonel Osborn, editor of the Kegisttr, has gone down to Maine, to be gone a couple of weeks.

It is whispered that Mr. liarnuiu and Uolonel Stev enson have reconciled their little differences and that the opportune absence of Colonel Os- born Just at this time means that he, too, has buried the hatchet that was sharpened for Mr. Barnum's scalp, and that everything is lovely again. Perhaps Colonel Osborn has repented of his rashness in refusing that $4,000 oftice and is going to accept it after all, and take off his wings. Perhaps, too, the alleged reconciliation means a place on the state ticket for Colonel Stevenson.

It is not impossible that the governorship has been held up to his eyes. THB HARTFORD "TIMKS" AND MR, BARNl'M. (Bridgeport standard.) The Hartford Times devotes itself to the endeavor to show that Senator Hawley is not so worthy as some of his republican admirers and the party at large have held and still hold him to be, and in this congenial occupation it drums op all the hearsay political gossip which it can find, cites all the unsubstantiated rumor which has ever reached it, and generally strains itself in the direction of false witness and misrepresentation to demonstrate that the honored senator is more of a politician to-day than he was; and more of a politician than a statesman. And it takes great pride in this characteristic work and remarks that "the Times has sought to furnish some political information to the people of the state within the past two or three months. This virtuous and high-toned democratic journal Iips not heard yet that its candidate for tho position which General Hawley so honorably fills, the man whom it is striving to assist in the work of putting General Hawley out that he may get in, has been caught with a bribe in his hand, that bribe furnished by the President of the United States, attempting to purchase anotiier democratic journal in this state to assist his patriotic and honorable ambition.

This Hartford Times, which is so nice in its demands concerning General Hawley, has not yet dared to wink concerning this exposure of its "boss," and in common with the other democratic journals of the state, the Hegirter excepted, keeps np a discreet silence, while it picks away with its critical pin at the stone wall of General Hawley's political character. What does the Hartford Times thiuk of William H. Bnrnnm's attempt to buy with a public office, the New Havon Register? Will it dare to give an honest answer to that question, or must it wait till it get3 Its cue from the great political purchaser as to what it shall say or not say in the matter! Let the Times turn it attention for a moment, if it dare, from General Hawley, who has never yet been accused of bribery even by it, to Mr. Barnum, whose attempt and failure to work the bribery business is now notorious and uudenied. Colonel Osborn and Colonel Stevenson are good witnesses surely, and it more are needed Mr.

Barnum hi inseif can furnish them, for he will not dare deny the facts wliicb they have stnted. Now let the demo-? erutic press, headed by the Tfiiies, for onoe be honest and give this matter a fair consideration. Silence is simply cowardly and eraven. PERSONAL MEN1IUN. Ex-Senator Henry M.

Eioe of Minnesota is revisiting Washington. General Lew Wallace is to lecture in Treiuont Temple, Boston, October 19, before John A. Andrew post, G. A. It His lecture will narrate tho action of his division at the battle oi Shi-lob.

Week before last- General Simon Cameron sent his check for to Mayor Courtenay of Charleston, for the earthquake sufferers, lii the accompanying letter be said: "I always associate yourcity and state with my recollections of your great statesman, Mr. Calhoun, who occupied so commanding a position in the senate before the country at my flint entrance upon public life, more than forty years ago. He received me in the senate with the greatest kindness during the remainder of his life. 1 was permitted not only to share with others admiration of his singular simplicity, elevation and dignity of character, but also to experience almost daily some proof of his personal consideration and regard. It naturally gives me pleasure, therefore, to associate my recollections of him with this contribution towards the relief of, the citj-eu of tho state he lovod so welL" CURRENT COMMENT.

A DEMOCRATIC PAPER OS CLASSES. (Brooklyn Eagle.) Senator Hawley took advantage of the ocoa-. gion of the dedication of the soldiers' monument at Hartford to expound his theory, at political society as follows: "There shall be no master, no slave; no noble, no peasant; no dominant class, no inferior class; every man has a right to be all' that he can be." It is the exercise of this right which accumulates a bodyoi facts fatal to the senator's beautiful theory. Men differ in tastes, iu abilities, iu ambitions, in culture and in estate, and these differences involve the division of society into classes. The homogeneity to which the Connecticut statesman's theory points belongs to the realm of the unattainable.

Trinity College. The base ball directors, in order to promote interest in the game, have decided to open an inter-class championship contest. They offer banners as first and second prizes for class teams, and also cups for the best individual hatting aud fielding averages. The banners are to be held for one year, and at the ud of four years are to be placed iu the library or in the trophy room of the gymnasium. The cups will become the property of the man winning them.

No cup will be awarded to any player who has not taken part iu at least five out of six games. Any postponed games will be played off as soon as possible. Games will be called at 2uW, on the athletic grounds. The schedule of games is as follows: 87 vs. '88, September 95t fsl vs.

Sir Charles Dilke's return to London passes otherwise unnoticed. I believe that he intends to spend the winter in a small country place twenty mihe front London. This singular paper makes a solemn appeal to the queen to remove Sir Charles Dilke's name from the itst of privy councillors. It is not certain that this has not been done already. The pubr lie declines to concern itself on the subject, regarding Sir Charles Dilke's career as absolutely at an end.

We have before us a copy of little paper of four pages, published weekly under the title of the Sanitary Era. On reading it one gets exactly the opposite idea, but that is all the more reason for a study of it. There never was more powerful arraignment made of the filthy war of modern living than the mere statement of facts which one gets by running through a single number of this publication. Going fi om the east coast west as far as Minnesota we find the same story in different forma. Here is the way it reads: a Anrnmruuirfont vrita that it Is no wonder ty phoid fever masee its appearance at this ultra-fashionable health resort, (Nuwport, K.

They have a way there, he says, or placing uirar privy sinus ciu to their wells and each others' wells as they do In most other places. Moving along to Kew York we are told; Ttimrd of health renorta say that one hundred case of malarial fever have been reported from West Hoboken, and that tne disease is stm spreaa-inj. The suwer that formerly carried the refuse of tlie district Into the North ricer by way of Hoooken was broken some yeais ugo. An act that grave permission to towns to build their own sewers. has been repealed, and no action can he taken until it is re enacted.

Meanwhile, the putrid water and slush runs down Pavonia hill In an open drain and emnties itaelf into tlie meadows, where it lies on the surface and the sun's rays cause continuous evapora tion and putnmty over a lartre area auruig tne sprtflK. summer and autumn months. Ooing on up the river we get a picture of what has been seen at many another city There are many old citliens of Albany who can recall the time hen the present sink of pestilence called Msrtiuville, wss a pltsasant valley, and when a gparklinir stream dashed down over picturesque rocks and broadened out into Its pretty bed in the valley below. Now, tlie waterfall is polluted by the draiuiiiRS from a brewery, and the pretty stream has become a noisome sewer, nuking with urban tiilfeL The natural basms of the valk-y have been trsnsiormed into slimy pools that poison the air. Nothing can be done to remedy this condition of thtit? for want of money at the distosai of the health authorities, forth a necessary work, if paid for by local taxation would go far to absorb the entire property of the place.

Out in the western part of 'ew York stats we hear of this case: Thomas Creek at Rochester receives a "sewer or two. In many places it is not over three feet in width and Is very shallow. The sewage and filth from the cttv is there discharged in such Quantities that but for the rapidity of the stream the creek would be completely filled up. After notifying the city and then bringing an action to effect a remedy, and still obuumug no relief, the residents interested in the matier have jietitioned the governor to direct the state board of health to take the matter in hand. At Cleveland, Ohio, there is this nasty story: Every year, from ppring to spring, there settles on the bed of the Cuyahoga river in Cleveland, a deposit of soft mud or sludire, composed of oxidized refuse from the slauphter-houses.

the oil refineries. Walnut and Kingsbury runs, and tlie dozen or more sewers that have their outfall into the river, as well as the washiugs from numerous streets that have their drainage into the river. 1 his mass of filth, a large part of it, remains on the bed of the river from spring to spring, and is washed out into the lake during high water. Ooing further west we read; Judge Mallory, the strenuous magistrate whose charge to the grand jury as to its duty against the May rioters and anarchisu did much to restore confidence in the west, has called a special grand jury and charged it to investigate the sewerixing of the Milwaukee river. He told the jury that more than 33iG tons of filth are discharged into the river daily, contrary to law, aud the deposit now fills the channel solidly to the deHh of four or five feet.

He recommends that indictments be found against some oi uie promineni- oirenaers. Such conditions as obtain in Watcrford, where in a population of Borne I.50U were reported flfiy cases of typhoid fever, would suffice to make Asiatic cholera epidemic were a single case of the disease once introduced. In 8t. Paul, the large number of ponds and poolsin the fifth ward are responsible for numerous cases or scarlet lever, aipntneria ana typiiota tever. These are only samples, the news of a single number, but they are fearfully suggestive as well as filthy.and there is little cheerful in the report also given that someChicago engineers think they can see how to pour the whole filth of that great city into the Mississippi.

This will inter est everybody who lives upon that great stream. Most of thtm would probably prefer to have the metropolis go on drinking its own sewage. Wo regret that Hartford cannot to-day be reckoned apart from the unfortunate cities of the country. Like the others it has its nuisances and if the gathering of people around the memorial arch will only lead to determi' nation to clean up the park river outrage on health and decency it will add not a little the value of the work.

The debt per mile of road has been reduced from $36,1.10 51 in 1884 to 4S3 98 on June SO last. President Adams remarks that on the 24th of August the last remaining note of tlie company then outstanding was paid, and for the first time in its history the Union Pacific had no notes payable outstanding.

On June 30, ISM, the amount of bills and account payable was 7S, all of which has been cleared up. Purlng the two years and six months between Juun0, lKt, and the 31st of lts8, it is estimated that the sum of either has beeu or will be applied by this company to the extinguishment of iWtiug debt or to construction, chierty the extension of branch linos. The exact pr mortion in which this amount was derlvud from various sources cannot be definitely stated until the close of the year. Meanwhile, it may approximately he SHid that will have been derived from surplus income; from the sale of the company's own bonds, chiefly Kansas Pacific Consolidated mortgage bonds; aud from the sale of bonds of auxiliary or branch railroad companies in the treasury of the company, on the oilier hand, triVoiigh the operation of the siukiug funds, and the land and other frusta, the company's bonds to the amount of have been or Mil' be retired. The retirement of eompmij 's bonds since Juue IS, will ex'-eHi amount the sales ot th'ise bonds by a uitihon dollars.

During the period in question, also, over 300 miles of new road either hsve beeu or will be sonpieteti: and the bridge across the Missouri river at umsha will bave be.n reconstructed on a new and enlarged plan, adequate to the present and future requirements of trnffic The securities representing this new construction rrOI be included sun-tig the assets of the company. The Investment accouut in bonus and stocks of other railroad iiouroiea. which was in the neighborhood of oa the ifOth of June, 1HS4, will therefore certainly not be leu than tlist amount at the close of the current year, 1h company will accordingly, at the close of the two and a half years ending December 31, Ificvi, have discharged its' floating debt in fuli: while, at the same time, it wiil lia di-erwascd its funded debt, and dimiuivlied the amount, of its investments in the securities of b.ancu or railroad companies. The President iu conclusion calls attention to the peculiar and injurious wording of the sinking fund provision of the Thurrnan acb. In March, 1SS4, the company purchased 510,000 of three per cents, paying for the same a premium of $17,173.

Two years luter the bonds were called in by the government and the company was obliged to deliver them at par, thus acrificiig the amount paid in premiums. The $510,000 with additional funds was then invested under the act iu question in four per cents, for which 25 per cent, premium was paid so that for (071,000 the company paid that is to say the sinking fund was increased for which the company paid This simple statement of facts, as President Adams says, "affords a singular illustration of the practical working of tlie sinking fund provisions of the Thurman act under present monetary conditions The October Atlantic opens with more of Mr. James's Casainaseima.

DEDICATION DAY AFTEKMAT1I. Additional Notes of the nig Celebration Friday.

The mayors and public officers of other towns were entertained at the city hall, where the city government had members to tender the courtesies of the city. Mayors Doolittle of Merideu, Carpenter of Norwich and Holcomb of New Haven were among the guests as were the Hon. Thomas Marlor of Brooklyn, well known in connection with the Putnam monument, and Postmaster Northrop of Middletown. The Hillyer Cluard entertained the Sarsfleld Guard of New Haven at the oltl city hall. The board of health kept open house during the day at their rooms in the city faali and had a number of visitors.

One of the prominent features in Friday's parade was tne display made by Robert O. Tyler post. No. SO, II. K.

Wilror post were escorted to the depot on their return at o'clock, and Sloeutn post at it o'clock, and they voted unanimously that they had had a royal good time, that Hartford was a royal place to come to, and that Robert Q.

Tyler post knew how to make tilings piensuui una agree-ame. One of the best corps of Grand Army posts in line was Sedgwick post of Norwich, which paraded 150 men under command of J. H. George, aud was preceded by Tubbs's band. There was much contusion In forming the line, so that the jrlous commands did not ail get tlie places to which they had been assigned, and in making up the list for the press some were misplaced, and one or two omitted.

The Twenty-fifth regiment should hae been put down at the head of the line of regiments. By an error a uniquely decorated arm chuir was made to appear as being at the residence of .1 L. Barbour on Buckingham street, when the cooy read J. R. Barlow on Trinity street.

The scene from the platform of the veterans and their sons with the oil colors and the beautiful iost banners and the uniformed troops as a background was picturesque and inspiring In the extreme. An interesting Incident of the day was the presentation of an elegant clear blue silk flag with gold fringe, lettters. eagle and tassels, made by Mr. h. Hope, to the J.

F. Trumbull post, G. A. of Stonington. The presentation was informally made just before tlie parade in behalf of the famil.

oi the tete Mr. F. Trumbull, for whom the post is named, at the residence of the Hon. Henry C. Robinson, by Mr.

Robinson's children, who are also grandchildren of Mr. Trumbull. The chorus organized by Mr. J. M.

Gallup was one of the finest male choruses ever organizes in New England and its accurate and harmonious rendering of the songs was appreciated and applauded. A correspondent whose literary taste and judgment is of the very bast, writes: "Dr. Parker's hymn was noble thought and poetic in expression." There was a remarkable meeting upon the platform of three distinguished generals General Cady General Franklin and General Chamberlain -who bad not met before since the San Antonio expedition hi the Mexican war oi-ty years ago. It was rather a distinguished clerical staff in line Including such a personnel as the Rev. Dr.

Smith, president of Trinity College, the kev. Mr. Twichel! the Rev. Professor Bissell and the Rev. II.

Clay Trumbull. The Kev. Dr. Riddle of the Theological seminary was on foot the right hand man of the frout ranks of the Union battalion. He had the same position in the same battalion on Battle Flag diy apd on Buokinghsm dav, having thus served as the head man among those marching iu line on all three occa-ions.

An interesting fact escaped attention at the time; that was that the day of celebration- September 17th was the anniversary of one of Hartford's greatest war meetings which was held also on the park, on the lTth of September. 18rtl just twenty-flve years before the dedication of the arch. The New York of fatiirdav had a fine picture of the memorial arch made from one of Stuart's photographs. In a well written account of the day's ceremonies the arch is called "decidedlv the most striking and original structure of the kind in the country." The jvew York H'orW published a picture of the arch on Friday, with words of praise which have already been copied. All the papers speak of the arch and of the celebration in tlie warmest terms.

Summer liats Called In. The season has arrived in which it is the proper thing to retire that old summer hat. The new styles for gents fall and winter wear are now on display at R. P. Kenyon 837 Main street.

Dunlap's new Fifth avenue hat is decidedly the correct article, both in tlerbv and silk. Those who desire to appear "more English, you know," can be accommodated with the genuine Christy hats, which have just arrived. Children's and bo-s' hats and caps in elegant variety, aud at very moderate cost Alligator bags, trunks, at very low figures to make room tor fur goods now opening. Now is the time to order a new seal garment at reduced rates, or have repairs attended to on the old one. Announcements, Dr.

Tlio republican oongrewslonal contention the First district will be held at Central hall, Hartford, on Thursday. September IB, at 11 o'clock a. for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Congress and for the transaction of any other proper Or4mkbiji, Cotrrssfonai fefelg Con" There Is general disappointment that the yacht race of Saturday from Newport resolved itself into a drifting match. It la a pleasure to knw that the plucky Lieutenant Henn, of the English cutter Ualatea, will carry home a cup, but as the race furnished no test of the Bailing qualities of the contestants, the priii will be regarded of little value. Ho far a sailing with a wind Is concerned, the Puritan bore off the palm, but after turning the first buoy the day become one of no steady wind, but occasional flawy puff, in which the boat with the best luck became the winner.

Two distinguished American railroad presidents arrived at New York Saturday evening on the Unibria Ham Bloan of the Dataware, l.ackaanua Western road and Cbauncey M. Depew of tho New York Central. It was Mr. Bloan's first experience on the continent and be says lie come back impressed with the vast number of people there and with the great superiority of American railroads. Mr.

Depew has been abroad often, lie reports great discontent in Holland where there used to be such contentment and be aaw a lively riot in Amsterdam from which he retired in good order. On the other band he thought there was a decided reactiou in Irermaay from liberalism toward atwolutistn. He noticed in Great Britain a strong feeling iu Scotland and a growing me ill Wales in favor of home rule for themselves. The governors of ten of the original thirteen states or their representatives met in Philadelphia on Friday to take counsel together on the subject of properly celebrating the 100th anniversary of the adoption of tho constitution of the United States 17, 1787. Governor Kitzhugh Ijkb of Virginia was chosen to preside over the deliberations, which resulted in the adoption of a preamble and resolution heartily approving the object and recommending it to the favorable consideration of congress and of the executives of every state and territory of the Union.

Tho President and the governors of the states and territories are requested to appoint delegates to meet in Philadelphia on Dewmber 2d next, to organize as a permanent commission to devise a proper programme for the proposed celebration. In the absence of Uoveruor Harrison, in attendance on the memorial exercises iu this city, ex-Oovernor Bige-low of New Haven represented the state at the conference. The republican congressional convention for the First district will be held at Central hall iu this city on Thuimlay next. No name but that of the Hon. John R.

Buck has been suggested tor the nomination. Mr. Buck deserves a re nomination, and will, we believe, receive it unanimously. will bo a proper recognition of bis devotion to the interests of his constituents, and of his faithful performance of every luty in his official position. Mr.

Buck has now, after two terms in congress, the experience that makes him especially valuable as a representative. He has a wide acquaintance with tho member of the houj, and ii universally esteemed by his brother members. Ha gave valuable aid last session to tho Iatxr of the naval committee, and made a very able and excellent speech on the increase of the naval stahlishment. Always active and energetic. he Is cow better fKWd than ever for usefulness as the representative of the first congressional district Wo hope to see his unanimous renotu- ination next Thursday.

Mr. Gladstone was due iu London yesterday tncrntuK, and a groat speech Is expected from him during tho coming littto on Mr. FarneU's Mil. It is not known that ha will advise the passage of the bill as it stands, but it is takeu for crauted on all sides that hs win cnampion the cause of the indebted and impoverished Irish tenants. There is an interesting rumor that the grim dragoon.

Sir Kedvcrs Duller, has lirivately reported to the government that the rent in Kerry and flare ar much too high, end that It is simply out of the question for the people to pay them. On the other hand the asserts, and undertakes to prove to a mathematical ninostiation, that the Irish farmers better oft to-day, and therefore better able td pay, than they were when tho judicial rents were fl-tcd four years ogo. It is supposed that the deb on the I'arnell bill will run two nights. According to the Sun's London correspondent, the government whips figure out a majority of 70 against it. From th same source we learn hat Lord Handolph Churchill's announcement of the government's purpose to bring forward nevt session a measure Tor placing the control of certain local Irish questions in the hands of tne Irish people, observing the limits died by the verdict of the constituencies the last election, is received by the I'arnell-ites with distrust, not to sy disbelief.

The fears that Lord Ivandolph may have in mind the transfer of local taxation and expenditure iu Ireland to local elective boards. That, the London newspaper thiuks, would be a great mistake, eince it would put an "irresistible instrument" into the hands of Mr. ParnelL THE BVSISESS SITUATIOK. The conditions of general business remain as favorable as last week. Mills are running actively ami sold ahead.

Distribution is active aud general. Prices are arm and inclined to higher figures and a period of genuine; industrial activity is upon us. Money has worked more easily in the past weei-, although it holds up around nix per cent. The evidence that this rate is not Regarded as permanent is frond, for one thing, in the fact that low rate railroad bonds, or the same thing, six or seven per eents at very high rales, continue to much sought after for investment. Last week something like were sold in Wall street against 3,000,000 the week 'jefor Among these, Ulj' p-r cents of the Illinois Central sell above par.

This doe not look like a return to the money rates of ten years ago or less when ten per cent, as not reckoned high ntTl six per cent, was considered low. Cotton and wool are firmer the latter braced still 'urther by increased prices at the London sales; brvaiUtuffs have boon active and the export of wheat from August 25th to September 11th in was about 5,000,000 bushels more than in the same period of lWi-5. The grocery market, firm in most respects, has been much aroused by a great boom In eolTeo, which Braii-sfreef's says is "unequaled in the history of any bull movement on record." It is based on a decline in Rio receipts, and is beiug worked in Brazil, France and -this country with great oeal. The same journal call it a speculative corner. It decidedly pvakeiied on Saturday.

In response to increased wsrmrigs, which are largely due to the wide distribution of goods for consumption in the commarciat activity, rai'rofui stocks have shown a decidedly improved toce during the wck. The northwestern roads have combined in a new pool and consequently granger stocks have made a marked advance. Northwestern and St, Paul have touched high figures the former US5', it highest point fcr two years at least; the latter 95 and a fraction, while is its highest for two years. The Xew York Central has crossed 113, also its highest figure for two years rise of in the property since the West Shore rivalry was bought out. Lake Shore at 90 and Michigan Central at S( are other evidences of the resurrectioning tendency of the boom.

The rival parties in Riding have come to an agreement and that perennial invalid is to be re vived again on, it is claimed, a paying basis. This hits lifted the coal stocks handsomely, to their best figures for years. Theocheine as outlined involves foreclosure and assessment. Under the foreclosure, unprofitable leases are to lie let drop and then only the paying part of the line will be re-established. This reads cheer-.

tally, but so far as the abrogation of leasai by bankruptcy, followed by actual survival of the lessee, is concerned, it is an cutrago oa equity. If individuals eCl'ld shake off all their bad bargains and keep all theVr "good properties there wouldn't be half the worry there is now in business. An interesting event of the week has been the Sickle Plate foreclosure uit, which baa a rery bad look. It will be rememlwred that tho lata William IL Vandcrbiit denounced the NickU Plat road as a worthless Uimble-dowu structure which be wouldn't accept as a gift and didn't waut at all IMid then in a week or two be gave over 6,000,000 KASTKRN IJGAGl'K.
