( tiovt.n GOT M. \VrsleriiTrnlllnAoHocliitliiiiAmtlr.s Dili Not Mult Him ut All. Nr.w YOIIK , Jan. Ifi. Mr.'Jay Gould was seen at the Windsor hotel nnd asked what truth there was in the report that ho had ro- tlrod from the Western Tralllo association. Mr. Uould replied tersely : "Ttiero isno truth In It. fou must not bollevo all you hoar. " Mr. C. P. Huntlngton ot the Southern Pa cific railroad said , in roforcnco to thu story that Gould had tendered his resignation of a illnco in the Western Ttafllc association , that ho was not present at the mooting when the question of cut rates came up , but ho under stood Mr. Gould was greatly irritated over what ho deemed au Injustice and hud served thu usual ninety days notice of withdrawal. Mr. Huntlngton sold ho did not bollevo thu association would bo disbanded as bus boon stated. ! Jo thought Mr. Gould was a man of great common seuso and bo was confident that the matter would bo compromised. Ho was not nwaro that the Southern Pu- cllic had done anything wrong In the way of cutting rates. An appeal. " however , had been made to the board of presidents , and until they passed upon the matter ha could not say" what course the Southern Pacific would pursue. Mr. Huntlngton admitted that if the case was decided adversely to his com pany the guilty party in his employ would nuvo to go. A local paper says the Western Trafllo.ns- soclatlon will in all probability break up within the next six months. A reproionta- tlvo of ono of the largest railroads in the association said after the meeting that in his opinion another mooting would never be hold. It is stated that the mooting ? at Windsor ser , supposed to be harmonious , were quito the rovorso. On Monday , after some routine work had been done away with and several questions of appeal decided , Mr. Gould , who had so far been taking an inactive part in the proceedings remarked quietly that if some action was not taken in the cases ef three roads which had been guilty of rate cutting , the Mlsrourl Pacific would bo with drawn from the association. Tbo original of fender in tbo charge of cutting was the South ern Pacific. The sugar rate was cut from 81.85 per 100 pounds to $1.05. The Atchlson accepted this rate and passed the freight ever Us lino. The Chicago , Burlington & Quincy out tbo rate on wool and this made a foundation of a seoarato charge. There was no response from any of the guilty ones nor from Presiding Ofllcor Miller. Thereupon Mr. Gould rose , picked ur > his hat and walked out of tbo room. After Mr. Gould retired the subject of the arraign ment of the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy in ono cose , the Atcutson , Topeka & Santa Fo In another was ignored or passed over without action. It was said that they did not deny that they were guilty. Vico-Prosldent S. H. H. Clarke rotnainca throughout Monday's ses sion and watched the proceedings closely without comment. On Tuesday no action was ttilcon on the rate cutting cases and yes terday VIco-Prosldont ClnrKo served notice on the association that the Missouri Pacific railroad would withdraw in ninety days. After throwing bis bomb he straightway withdrew. The ether niombors , were start led and so much tukou back that after ouly a few minutes talic a motion to adjourn was put arid carried. A prominent western railroad man who attended , tno mooting said to a reporter : "No , 1 don't think we will ever meet again. As I take it , Mr. Gould has bean fair. Ho simply demanded Just treatment , but the trouble-was this time that men involved In the rate cutting occupied too high places and the roads which they represent do not propose to discharge them. "Tno discharge of Vlco-Presldont Stubbs , of the Southern Pacific , and Tbomas Miller , general frolgnt agent of the Chlcaeo , Bur lington and Quincy , I understand , was de manded. Gulltv roads apparently are not disposed to take their own modlolno. Mr. Gould wanted them to live up to the agreement - ment , tbo sumo as he had dono. < lTho outlook for the Western Traftlo asso ciation was promising * , but it now looks bad. Mr. Gould will have to take the subject of witbaruwal before tuo board of directors of the Missouri Pacific , but or course his do clslon will ha milled. 1 think that ho will now endeavor to put his old schema of u railroad clearing house throat ; ! ' . IIo may have had a inovo of this kind on foot all along for all I know. The retirement of the Missouri Paclllo from the Western Traftlo association docs not of itself moau the breaking up of the association , but the addi tion of two ether roads will make \ \ actual dlsbandonment. Of course Mr. Sage will probably add the Iowa Central to the Mis souri Pacific , and Mr. Gould's influence will , add some ether roads , thus leaving the asso elation without n quorum. In uny case the withdrawal of the Missouri Pacillo road , If . .carried out , would leave so largo a gap in the territory covered by the association that' its break up would bo only a matter of tnno.

NenYOIIK , Jun. 15. U. O , Dun A : Go's wcokly review ot trade says : it was sug gested t\vo weeks ago that the exports In December worn llkoly to bo extraordinarily largo , a'iio prolltiilaary reports fust Issued Indicate that the rye exports la tbat month were probably the largest over known , for while no Increase appears in cottons and experts - ports of provisions , oattlo and oil \voro slightly loss than a year ago , a gain of $ JO- 100,000 appears In breadstuffs , making the net Increase In principal items $ l ,540,834 , or nearly ! 2fl per cent , Indicating that the aggregate - gate exports for the month will probably ex ceed $110,000,000 against about $93,000,000 Inst.year , when the amount was greater than It had over been In an ; month. Tbo exports of Hour Increased CO per cent and exports ot wheat nro 16,000.01)0 bushels against 4,800,000 last year , whllo exports of cotton are 4:1,000,000 : pounds greater In quantity , though no Increase appears In value owing to the low prices. Those enormous PXports overshadow all other features In the commercial situation. They insure largo sup plies of money , If over needed , but at present the markets are everywhere well supplied , except at southern points , and bettor supplied there than a week ago. The treasury dis bursements have boon largo and there Is no reason to look for a lack of supply of money , Another fact of largo Importance Is that the output was not diminished In December as Is usual , ovylng to the stoppage of furnaces dur ing the holidays , but was 183.0S2 tons weekly , against 188,183 on December 1. The market Is fairly active , though the enormous output gives buyers an advantage , and Alabama and Virginia are offered at low prices. I'ltvoraliln Reports from lliislnem Centers. Copper Is flat , and In tin there Is llttto change , but load is weak at $4.UO. and the market for coal very dull on account of the very heavy output. The wool propuctlon last year Is estimated considerably lareor than that of the year be fore , taut the stocks on hand are somewhat larger , indicating that the consumption In 1891 has been about tbo name as In 18)0. ! ) The market shows no important change , and Just at this season none Is to bo expected. Bad wcathor checks business at Boston. At Hartford wool Is loss active. At Philadelphia no change appears in the important branches of trade. At Baltimore exports of breads tuffs for the last six months of 1S91 worn in value $155- 939,19 ; ) , a gain of moro than $100,000,000 ever the previous year. Pittsburg reports no change in the iron market , though prices for linlihod Iron .are growing stronger. At Cincinnati tobacco is In active demand and free orders are noticed for boots and shoos. At Cleveland trado' Is larger than a year ago , though in some lines Inactive , and the tide seems to have turned In pig Iron ore. At Chicago sales of dry goods , clothing and shoos are larger than a' year ago. Some in crease Is soon in barley , 25 por.cetit in cattle , a third in Hour , corn , oats and hides , while receipts ot wheat 'and dressed boot are double last year's , but a decrease appears In cured moats , lard and choose , and the wool receipts are only half as large as auyoiir ago.

Trade in St. Louis isnhelped by ooldor weather , and also at Milwaukee and St. Paul. , vj , At Minneapolis the flour output It 178,000 barrels for the week , against , 110,000 a year ago. ago.At Duluth sales in 1891 amounted to $20.- 000.000. At rfashvlllo trade Is qufot and money easier and at Little Rook and Montgomery trade is dull , while at Now Orleans cotton shows some improvement and sugar is steady , with money in moro active demand. Depression of business in the south , on account of the low price of cotton , still con tinues. Breadstuffs have boon much weaker since the publication of the government reports , and wheat has fallen 1 % cents , corn 1 % cents and oavs three-fourths of a cent. Ex ports ana receipts continue largo , though ttio colder and less favorable weather to some extent restricts the movement. Coffee Is un changed and oil has advanced U rents. Cot ton fell to 7.TO cents during the -week , the lowest price for fortv-throo , years. .but has since recovered to 7.70 cents , though receipts and stocks are remaritabty largo. . The de pression at tbo south is not'rellerdd'by talk at the cotton convention , and probably can not be in any way except by free sales of cot ton , which Is now held for higher , prices.

Influences of this nature would have little cftoct on speculative sentiment were It not that the recent rise has temporarily ex hausted the buying power and loft the mar ket in what is tor mod an overbought condi tion. Under such circumstances the ab- sanco of European support is severely felt , but it would seam that the bull loaders themselves concede the necessity of n reac tion In prices , which would not only create a short Interest , but afford a basis for a fur ther advanco.

City Attorney Adams is very indignant ever the action taken by the assistant county attorney in securing tbo dismissal of Norton Bros. , who A ere unaor arrest ou the charge of grand larceny of $1,741.15 from City Clerk John J. Uynn. Mr. Adams de clares that the Nortoas are guilty of felony In keeping the bonds when Ihey nro fully aware that they were secured through a mlstaKo , and bo believes that they could bo sent to the penitentiary1 for it. The report that Norton Bros , have sold the $1.741.1.1 worth 'of bonds secured by thorn through an orrorMh the part of City Clerk Hyan Is docla'red incorrect by that ofllclal. Ho says thaliitho bonds lie securely in the vault of the packers' National bank and the injunction secured ' by him against Norton Bros , preclude' ) any possibility of the bonds being sold. Ho 'ridlcules the idea ot the bonds bolng sold at all , as everybody now knows that they .woreiobtatnod by < mlstako anditbat they really jroprosont nothing , as tljo property , owners , , will never pay the amount called for. as .thoy havo'alroady paid for tbo grading.

Cmc.uio Btmmu OP TIIK BRB , I Ctiiuitio , li.i , . , Jan. in. | The oxocutlvo committee of tho-World's fair directory has apparently Just discovered that there are two halves of the problem of World's fair transportation , and that the. getting of the crowds from .Chicago to'tho fair grounds Is the smaller half. The other , and as It now appears to the directory , the larger halt of the problem Is how to got the crowds Into Chicago. Prosldent liakor really acorns to bollovo that the two Illinois Central tracks , carrying U3OOJ persons per hour can , with the assistance of the cable roads and the iako route , do all the business satisfactorily. Ualiroad men In the directory disagree with Mr. Baker on this 0.1 on many ether points , Tnoy object to tbo settlement of fered by Mr. Baker as giving the Illinois Central a monopoly and as being therefore unfair to the roads which they represent. It Is stated by a prominent railroad oillclal who has , conjointly with other roads , made a thorough canvass of the World's fair trans portation problem , that tbo twenty railroads of Chicago will spend nn avcrago of $ . * > 00,000 each on Increased station facilities , now roll- lug stock and ether equipments necessary to handle World's fair trafllc. This means a total expenditure of $10,000.000. Anticipating u Shortage.

It Is thought In the latter contingency local capitalists would probably loan it and take control ot tbo fair with a tlrst mortgage on the gross gate receipts. OdilH uiid Kmlx.
