The stock market to-day was active, and while strong at first yielded at the close to the pressure hr e. <ht to bear by the bears. There was good buying by commission houses and for eigners, which was specially noticeable in Van derbilts. Canada Southern and Michigan Cen tral easily leading the advance Chattanooga also showed marked strength and held its gain till the close. The high figure after the steady advance of the week induced considerable realization by short-waisted bulls, and hears be came encouraged to make a demonstration against the list. It made but little progress, however, until the issue of the bank statement, with its loss of $2,000,000 in the surplus reserve, when the selling became more marked and the list yielded rapidly. Northern Pacific preferred was most prominent in the decline, though the business done in the stock was small, and it is alone in showing a mate ial loss this evening. The opening was firm at advances of small fractions. Further fractional advances were made in the first hour, with Vanderbilts very prominent. The market became more quiet to ward noon, aud prices began to recede. Little progress was made, however, until the issue of the bank statement, which accelerated the de cline, and the close was active aud weak at the lowest prices reached. The net result of the day's trading is that most stocks are lower, though declines are e mflned generally to frac tional amountfkonly, the only important change being a loss of 1% P*' r cent, in Northern Pacific preferred. Sales aggregated 107,000 shares. The following were the closing quotations: Ala.classA, 2t05.103 New Orleans Pa- Ala, class B, ss. 108 eifle, Ist mort... 81 Georgia 7s, mort. .104 N.

The Archbishop) Breaks the Record on Gas B Ils— Paying |7BO. f'rom the Missouri Republican. “The heaviest gas bill ever paid by one private consumer—for gas furnished to his residence, that is,” remarktd a gas man, “was one paid a short time ago by Arch bishop Keurick. How big do you suppose it was!” “I couldn’t imagine.” “Something over $780.” “For gas used at his home!” “Yes sir.” “How did it happen! Was he illuminat ing for the President aud Mrs. Cleveland T' “No, it was a case of lost meter. You see each year the records are gone over and brought into anew book, and it sometimes hap]jens, through the carelessness of a clerk or for some other reason, that the transfer to the new book is not properly made. The list of meters in each district is made up and given to the inspectors, and, of course, if a house number does not appear in the mspec tor’s book he does not go into the house to investigate. Tho only thing that there is to go on is the list. He can’t go behind the re turns. Well as lam telling you, the meter in tho Archbishop’s house wag not pro, erly entered, and we knew nothing at all about it until one day one of the members of his family came down a.nl lodged a com plaint about the working of the gas in the house. We looked the matter up. and it did not appear that his grace had any ga< or was using any meter. Thore was nothing on the boons to show it. We turned back to lost year and there was nothing there, to the year before and there was nothiug there, and so the chase was kept up all the way back to 1870, when it was evident what sort of a mistake had been made. Gas had been burning for ten years in the house, and we had known noth ing about it. The meter had ground itself complete y out so that it could give ns no consolation whatever. The matter was brought to the archbishop’s attention, and he at once wrote to the office and told us to make out a hill for whatever might be the oroper amount. It was rather a dilicult bill to make out, and the only way we could get at it wa. to take the average of tl. • monthly bills rendered at tin house for the last two years of which we lut 1 record, and compute the account due m that way. It amounted, as I said, to something over $7BO. His grace sent in a Check the next day, thus having the honor and pleasure of pu'ving the largest individual gas bill ou re cord.
