The improvement in values begun yesterday afternoon made further progress in th** stock market to-day, and under a more extended in terest in dealings the murket recorded larger sales than have been seen for a week. The Bal timore and Ohio deal is again the subject of dis cussion. The assertion that Western Union was in the deal had a very great influence upon the general market. A powerful faction in the im proved feeling was the favorable report of rail road earnings for the first week in May. Many operators wno have lately held aloof from the market were buyers to-day, and several of the leaders of the street are reported to have changed from the bear to the bull side. Chicago bought Grangers freely, and the latter once more became prominent in the dealings. For eigners bought Northern Pacific stocks and many of their specialties. HI. Paul and Duluth was remarkably strong by reason of the prox imity of th ■ June elections, when it is expected another ui tempt will be made to force a decline of profits to holders of the common stock. Last- Tennessee was again strong on a good foreign demand, and among other specialties which showed marked strength were Colorado Coal, Long Island and Pullman. Coal stocks were quiet, though firm, and business in Reading was the first that has lieen seen for months. The remainder of the market presented no feature of note. The opening was Irregular, but firm, and was followed by a quiet market in which there was a decided movement in prices, al though fractional advances were made through out the list during the forenoon. After 12 o’clock, however, the market displayed much more animation, Western Union and Grangers taking first place in the dealings. A stronger tone was developed, and by 2 o’clock advances had boon established ranging up to 2 per cent., the latter in St. Paul and Duluth. Realizations induced a reaction in the lust hour, but the dose was steady to firm at fractional accessions from best, prices, and the entire active list was higher, with advances ranging up to 3-is lx-reent.

Futures closed dull. Manchester, May 11.—The Guardian says: “Markets in less favorably situated sections have given away in a varying degree without in creasing business. Even in the strongest sec tions sellers are beginning to feel the effect of the prolonged depression in the shape of greatly narrowed demand. Lack of business is very keenly felt in some directions. The production is undoubtedly quietly falling off in a few dis tricts. There will probably be a further de crease in production, unless an unlooked for re vival ensues. There are few orders from India merchants, and fewer still are feasible. There is little more business for China, chiefiy in best shirtings. Few orders were placed for smaller foreign markets, but business often showed a decided falling off. Yarns are inactive. Cloth is in moderate inquiry, but at prices which, in many eases, are infeasible. Manufacturers show an increasing desire to sell. Some are glad to get prices refused last week, which are now frequently impossible toget. India staples are neglected.” New York, Mav 11, noon.—Cotton opened firm: middling uplands 10%c, middling Orleans 11 l-16e: sales 297 bales.

Green A Co.’s renorr, on cotton futures says: “Fuller business and sharp skirmishing has broken the lame tone somewhat to-day. Large buying orders came in early, especially for June, and as they began to develop the demand was increased by some free coverings and the cost of the old crop went up 9@12 points almost without check. This seemed to bring matters up to the waiting limit of some operators and drew out heavy offerings, under which there was a shrinkage of 7®.8 points and made a final net gain of only about :<£) points, though the close was probably a trim? steady. In fact, the market took up the supply very well.” Galveston, May 11.— 6otton firm; middling 10%c; net receipts 1 bales, gross 1; sales none: stock 10,815 bales.

Chicago, May 11.—All the conditions this morning seemed to favor the bull side of the market. Besides cables there was a report of drought In Hie West and Northwest, and the effect of yesterday’s government crop report, which showed material decline in the condition of the crop, had not vet worn no ay. Juno opened at tWAc, nr.d advanced until it reached 86R.V... At tins point the clique and long crowd began selling wheat, and June dropped back to 83jfce. In less than an hour after the opening the clique had again successfully milked the crowd, and marketed a lot of wheat, which cost them 86c on .Monday, at 30)sc down to 88c, at which point they stopped selling. After prices got down to ,80c for June it remained quiet, and comparatively little trailing was done. Coni did not follow wheat. Shorts in corn arc very cautious, and inclined to cover. June was held steady at 4d 4c. the opening prion, all the time wheat was going down, and there were imtner ous buyers at that figure. June ribs were weak early, went do-.vn from $7 42)6 to $7 35, but later recovered and advanced to $7 45. Igird was dull and quiet.

From the Chicago News. An amusing story conies to us from the for West. For a long time an outlaw name<l Roach the Terror hail been the scourge of the mountain districts of Idaho, and last month he waylaid and proceeded to rob one Bivens, a wealthy gentleman who was trav eling through the Territory on mining busi ness. While the two were thus employed — one in robbing and the other in being robbed —they suddenly became aware of the ap proach of a mountain Jion, one of those stealthy, cruel monsters that inhabit and lay waste the fastenpssos of the Rooky mountain region. Roach immediately dropped his booty and skinned up a tree as nimbly as ever he could; ns for the other man, he didn’t stop to pick up his property —he followed Roach up the tree with marked alacrity. The fierce lion, flaunting its tail savagely, licking its hideous fangs and rolling its glassy eyeballs suggestively, looked up at the two men in the tree and prepared to join them. “11avo you a pistol ?” asked Roach the Terror. “No,” said Bivens, the traveler, “but in my belt 1 carry a knife fourteen inches Ion"” “Then,” suggested the Terror, “suppose you stick the knife into that varmint when ho reaches out for us." “Yes, hut if I leave the knife in the lion,” said Bivens, “and if he should fall with it, what protection have 1 against youi No, I’ll keep the knife and let you shoot the critter with that pistol.” “Yes, but sup])osing I do shoot him,” said Roach, “what protection have I against your knife when my pistol is empty?” Meanwhile the lion w r ns coming up the tree with alarming rapidity. Ho seemed to grow three feet every way as he advanced foot by foot. “Unless wo can come to a compromise,” said Roach, “the varmint will eat us both, lot’s agree to this: You stab him and I’ll shoot him—at any rate, either we folks or that critter has got to die!" “That’s so,” said Bivens, “and I’ll accept the compromise.” So when the lion got within range Roach blazed away at it and Bivens reached down and drove bis knife clean up to the hilt in the monster’s breast. The lion fell to the ground with a bullet hole in his head and eleven inches of steel in his lungs. Then Roach and Bivens descended from the tree. They had escaped so narrowly that they could not be other than friends. Each was indebted to the other for his life. They re solved not to separate, and now they are en gaged in the 1 audit business together in the Idaho fastnesses. QUEEN VICTORIA TRAVELING. Royal Steam Cars No Better Than Ordinary American Sleepers. Prom Cassell's Family Magazine. The Queen’s saloons are in the centre of the train, and these commodious carriages fitted for day and night traveling, her majesty occupies with Princess Beatrice. There are two beds in the sleeping compart ment, which o]>en.s from the flay saloon. The beds are simple, in green and gilt fur niture and fittings, something like elaborate * ‘cot*’’ in shape, and generally the interior fittings of the train leave nothing to be de sired. The floors are carpeted, the ceilings padded, the wide windows curtained, tne lamps deeply shaded. Electric bells com municate with the attendants or the officials, and by pressing a button at the end of a long variagated cord or tsill-pull the alarm is sounded in the van. A separate electric button IS fixed In each side of the sleeping compartment, by which the attendants may be sununonedj another button when pressed will cause tne train to stop as quick- ly as may he. ' There are tic Westinghouse, vacuum and ordinary brakes fitted to the train, which are worked as required by the exigencies of the locomotives of tho different companies over whoso lines her majesty travels, some engines being fitted with vacuum iqul others with the Westinghouse brakes. The usual furniture, comfortable but simple, and a lavatory, are all included in the Queen’s sa loons. There are hooks and racks for par cels, wraps, birdcages and small bundles, of which her majesty and the Princesses con vey a good supply. The late John Brown used to occupy a seat in the royal day sa loon, back to the engine as the train stood, and facing the door of the Queen’s apart ments, so as to be within call at once. The carriages are warmed with hot water pipes. Nothing is wanted to render the jour ney as little irksome and as little fatiguing as possible. Tho carriages exteriorly are bright and clean and newly polished. Tho wheels are “solid”—blocks of wood taking the place of spokes; the springs are massive; the tires glide smoothly over the rail; the carriage stern let down as in road carriages, uriel the wide plate-glass windows permit an extensive view of the country through which the train is passing.
