There was none of yesterday’s buoyancy in the stock market to-day, but instead there was a dull, drooping market. The highest prices were generally made in the first hour and the lowest in the lust. There was no demand to cover shorts this morning, and although London was buyer, its operations were confined princi pally to the V. abashes. Weakness developed early in Missouri Pacific, and the room jumped to tue conclusion that Mr. Gould was selling,the result being that a decidedly heavy tone was imparted to the entire list. The reported bar mouious arrangement in Pacific Mail rendered that stock exceptionally strong, and to-night it is one of the few stocks which clos'd higher. Grangers showed much less animation than on yesterday, and though Rock Island made some improvement early in the day it was entirely lost, with something in addition liefore the close. Under operations for London account Wabashes were unusually active mid strong, but they yielded with the remainder of the list in the afternoon The opening was steady to firm, first prices being either unchanged or slightly above last evening's final figures In most eases. A heavy tone was immediately developed, how ever, Missouri Pacific being decidedly weak, though declines were for fractional amounts only. Pacific Mail was the conspicuous excep tion, ljeing specially strong in the face of a falling market. A rally followed, which, how ever, failed to bring' prices up to the opening figures, and before noon prices were again de clining. After that time more decided weakness was shown. New England leading the decline, which continued well into the last hour. Frac tional recoveries were made liefore the close, which, however, was generally heavy at the figures. The day’s business aggregated 230,000 snares. Nearly all the active list are lower this evening, although the losses sustained are for fractional amounts only, except for Milwaukee, Lake Hhore and Western, which lost l jier cent, and New England 1%.

June wheat opened at BV>ie, sold r;ipid|y to 80t$c and then reacted to 85, 4 c agWlijUnreift up to 88,14 c within the first 15 or 20 iqhiutei There was a heavy trade by the largb li j-'bs, many of whom are pronounced bulls, neresßStlly buyers. Around SSc w heat was held qftitf pfeady, but operations on both sides were unite W);ge. Irwin .t Green bought 1,500,000 bushels' of June of George C. Walker & Cos. at 88(&t(liWg.. Walker offered tb first lot of 100,000 Which was taken iiy Ware, of Irwin ft Gri'eE's.' Walker then began running up the otT'h' 100.000 bushels at a jump until it aggregated 1,600,000 bushels, which went in one lump at. 86c. After that the market dragged a little, under the pounding started by a few liears, with the aid of some bulls who wanted an opportunity to fill up at a cheap price, and they succeeded in putting the price back to 8514 c. where it stood half an hour before the close of the morning session. The market then fell off to Ss'4c. Shortly after the tap of the iiell for the afternoon session the crowd dis covered that the short interest was altogether too large, and everybody commenced to scram ble for June wheat. That option went, from 85(40 to 86ter without stopping, and Just liefore the close it had a little reaction to Astj(c. Clear ing., from the seaboard aggregated 301,000 bush els. Charters for *280,000 bushels were reported here t. day. Corn was quiet and prices showed little change. Oats were quiet ami featureless.
