Market.
New York, July 28.—There was a rad
ical ehtc.igo in the temper of the stock
speculations to day’, and most of yester
day’s losses were" regained. Prices were
on a higher plane throughout, and while
the lint prices were generally the lowest
recorded! (lie best figures were reached in
ir. Yest<
the last half hour. Yesterday’s feverish
ness and irregularity continued to -prevail
during t he forenoon,but a decidedly strong
tone marked the dealings fur the remain-
dor of the day. There was very little news
of a cnaracler to affect values, but that re
ceived was of a favorable character. A
more. pronounced disposition to
buy’ became prominent early in the
day, and me* with but little resistance,
wliicli was almost wholly withdrawn to
ward the close. London bought stocks,
and most o the sellers of yesterday were
buyers to- lay, the covering of shorts being
vt”v extansi’.v. although the outstanding
ihon interest is still very large. Humors
that two of ihc moat influential operators
won: buying obtained credence, and from
the buying in Reading and Jersey Ceiitnu

the support of these stocks; but action
stocks show but slight gains over tho open

uniform in its movements. The opening

generally a heavy tone which became
weak during the first hour, hut the market
soon gathered strength and by noot was

Convention Hall, Toledo, Ohio,
July 28.—The republican state con
vention was called to order at 10
o’clock by temporary chairman Ry’an.
The committee on credentials and rules
reported and the reports were adopted.
Ex-Governor Charles Foster, chairman of
the committee on resolutions, read tho
platform, which was a.i follows:
The republican party, in convention as
sembled, submits to the people of Ohio
the following declaration of its principles:
First—We are in favor of 11 protective
tariff to secure American citizens the priv
ilege of supplying every article which can
be produced as well in tho United States
as in other countries, arid sufficiently to
supply American wants. Such tariff'makes
demand for and gives employment to the
labor of American citizens and thereby
aids in securing a just compensation for
labor. We denounce tho Ohio democratic
platform of tariff' for revenue only, and
which demands indiscriminate reduction
in ull duties an imported articles, tho ef
fect of which would be to encourage im
perial ions, thus giving American patron
age to foreign producers,and foreign labor,
rath; r then to our own.
Second—Whiie'.vc adhere to the public
policy under which our country has re
ceived from Europe great bodies of honest,
industrious citizens, who have added to
the wealth, progress, and power of our
country; and while wo welcome
to our shores the well disposed and
Industrious immigrant who contribute!!
by ids energy and intelligence to the cim.-ic
of free government., we view with ale) m un
restricted immigration from foreign land;,
as dangerous to the peace and good order
of the country and integrity and character
of its citizenship. We urge congress to
pass such laws and establish such regula
tions as shall protect, us from thei nrcud
anarchist, communist, poly garni;'
diors and sailors of the union, adequate
appropriations lbr the improvement of our
nntiounl waterways and national aid to
education, il' too much revenue be col
lected to meet those and other public
need: , wo il; i mnd that the first step In the
reduction thereof shall be the abolition of
the Internal tax upon American grown to
bacco.
Sixth—I’ubllo laud of the United Statos
should be sacredly held for the use and
benefit of actual settlors alone, and laws
preventing the ownership of these lauds
by corporations and non residents should
be rigidly t'jj forced.
Seventh - While we condemn the false
pretense of Hiosidont Clevelu: d\'i adminis
tration of tlu- civil service law, wo advo
cate the maintenance and proper enforce
ment of ssiirl law, and demand such addi
tional leu'islalioi. um will remove appoint
ments from uarlisan influence.
Eighth The republican party has ever
been the fri< f i :■>. oj• ueised national! •
ties, and wc ♦ %ieml our ‘heart.y symp ithy
to Gladstone. HurneU and their associates
in their efforts to secure home rule for Ire
land..,
Nidi h \Yt: condemn the action of Cleve
land in vetoing pension bills, and especial
ly \v •denounce the.spirit manifested toward
the iv.aimed and -T abled soldiers of Hit
c*>u itty In Liu . i in vhich certftin
of his vetoes a.v couched, and wt? condemn
as unjust, und unmerited his veto of the de
pendent pension hill, and declare that it
\vus in plain violation of the national
pledges t < > its Helen dors and of off repented
pro uidos of the democratic party of the
north, made durinf* political campaigns to
secure votes. We demand of congress
that it- pass, and of the president to ap
prove liburu! enactments pensioning sol
diers of the country; that helpless widows
of doad soldiers, regardless of eause of
dentil, dependent parents and disabled
soldiers shall receive the boun
ty of the nation they fought
to save and which they richly deserve.
Tenth While favoring all proper legis
lation to secure patentees in their just
righto to their inventions, wo ask such leg-
latiou by congress as will provide the', th
holder of a patent shall Imve no rigid of
action for iLs infringoircut when it is
known that her sons are innocently and in
good faith, using it without the knowledge
of thd existence of a patent. He fails to
give notice of his claim.
Eleventh- We heartily endorse the ad
ministration of Gov. Foraker as wise,
