There was ; n , heavy business In jvlicat dur
ing the llr t half hour of the session. The
market opened ' .teak at about th prlcu 01
puts for the day. Some llttlo buying upalnut
those privileges ntartfd nt once , but the
proimtrfi to sell was such that many holi !
their privileges to take advantage of the
lower prices which the great apparent weak
ness at the time seemed to Justify. The
looked for farther decline was not long de
layed. In the drat half hour May declined
from f > Sc to C7c , with one sale recorded
at 57e while the rush to sell was at Its
height. Thu weather was perfect. North
western receipts we-ro again fairly liberal
and In excess of those of last year. There
was some recovery from the depression sug
gested by the above when Now York dis
patches reported the taking there at that
early period of the session of from 20 to 23
boatloads of wheat. The market tinned up u
little more on that and May sold at GSUc ,
with last sales at 5Sc to CSUc.
Corn was weak and business rather slack.
Receiving and shipping houses were sellers.
Some long corn was sold out and the chief
buying was for the short account. The
opening price for May 37c wns the high
est of the day , and 37'/jc ' the lowest , which
rime about 20 minutes before the close.
The market closed with buyers at 3"/4e to
37e and sellers at 37c.
The business In oats was very limited.
Values were lower , Inlluenccd by the weak
ness In corn.
The provision market was rather easy for
a few minutes , but the shorts appeared sat-
Islled with the break which had already oc
curred and were fairly liberal buyers. Jlusl-
ness was light and principally confined to
local speculators. After several fluctuations
the market closed strong near the top. Com
pared with last night May pork Is lOc
higher , May lard 7'c higher and May ribs
7'iJ ' higher.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
45 cars ; corn , 285 cars ; oats , 200 cars ; hogs ,
20.000 head.

STOCKS AND IIONDH.
There Wcro .Signs of Liquidation of Snmll
Hull 1'oolH.
NEW YORK , March 15. There were signs
of liquidation ot small bull pools In the
stock market today , and It was evident that
the short Interests were Imbued with the
belief that the conditions were favorable for
a downward movement. The speculation
was less active than for some days past.
The prospective passage of the seigniorage
bill ( the vote was not announced until about
the close of the market ) had a rather de
pressing Influence on the speculation by rea
son of the fact that the bears prophesied
dlro results If it should become a law , sug
gesting that heavy gold exports would fol
low and that American securities would de
preciate In value on the London exchange.
The Union Pacific's statement for January ,
which showed a heavy decrease In net earn
ings , also tended to help the short side of
the market. Dut with all these wcro periods
of strength , and In late dealings there were
evidences of a desire to buy back many of
the stocks sold earlier In the day. Within
the last eitmrter of nn hour the temper of
speculation underwent a radical change , and
on very strong buying nn advance of ' , & to 1
per cent v.'as made In the general list , and' '
2V4 per cent In Cordage. Hut while the
market closed strong , a majority of the list
was below the closing figures , of yesterday
U to l'/i per cent. The railway nnd miscel
laneous bond list was rather heavy for the
active securities , but some of the usually In
active bonds made advances.
The Post says : Several events In the In
ternational market were noteworthy today.
One was the slight recession In our sterling
exchange rates , due not alone to the con
tinued dullness in that market , but also to
the sales of bills against this week's foreign
purchases ofour securities. These pur
chases did not , however , continue today.
Unfortunately , the same misgivings over the
seigniorage bill ns affected the local Wall
street had their Influence today In London.
Not less remarkable than the turn In sterling
was the sudden breaking of the Hombay
money markets. The chief bank In that city
has all this month maintained Its discounts
at the panic rate of 10 per cent. Today the
situation changed , nnd the official rate was
twice reduced , ending at 8 per cent. It is
reasonably certain that the heavy London
sales of Indian government exchange are
now having their duo effect. Yesterday
5,000,000 rupees of such drafts were sold.
In the preceding fortnight 13,500,000 rupees
were disposed of , a total sum of more than
$5,000,000. The presentation of these drafts
in India , releasing the government's hoarded
silver coin , Is sure eventually to check the
panic.

the leading stocks of the Now York exchange

WASHINGTON' . Mutch IS. On. : of the
most Important prupnvitioi's ynt brought be
fore congress was submitted to Ihu
today by Representative lUutncr of
ana. The proposition u cite > 3 numerous defaults -
faults f.t the Union 1'acllle , and contiguous
line * , to mod the debt dua the Culled
States. It charges the present and past ell *
rccloru of the road with tx violation of thulr
trust anil Improper absorption of outxido
llnoa and the voting of dividends contrary to
law and against the Interests of the I'nitotl
Slates. It directs , In the form of n joint
resolution , that the president bliall appoint
special counsel In Institute suit against the
preuant and past directors , their heirs or
legal rcprunonlatlves , 'to collect $33,000.000
and Interest duo the United States ; with In
terest , the amount of the litigation would ex
ceed $ -10.000,000.
It would bo the largest lawsuit ever Insti
tuted In this country , If not the Inrgcs ; in
any country. 1J > the' terms of'the resolu
tion the Department of Justine would bo re
lieved from further action in the Union I'.i-
olflc case , a net the suli would bo prosecuted
by special djunsol. The Joint resolution
places $100,000 at the disposal of the presi
dent for the employment of counsel. It la
provided that the counsel shall not be In any
way connected In present or past service
with the Union 1'aellle road or with any ol
the directors.
The Iloalner resolution was drawn with
great e-aro and afler consultation among the
legal authorities of the house who It Is de
clared nro not entirely sntlsllcd with the
initnner In which Ihu government's Interestu
hnvn thim fur linmi nrotpetnd. The resolu
tion then reeltes that the board of directors.
In contravention of the law of March 3 ,
1873 , attempted a consolidation with the
Kansas 1'aclflc railroad and the Denver I'u-
cllic railroad anil Issued stock of the Union
Pacific on this consolidation for $14.000.000.
It Is charged that afterwards further stock , .
amounting to $10,000.000 , was Issued for the.
alleged purposes of making repairs , etc ;
that the putehaso of the two railroads by
the Union Pacific was made by the directors ,
who wcro theniBelvcH stockholders of the
Kansas 4'aclllc and the Denver Paefle , while *
the president of the Union Pacific was at the
tlmo president of the Kansas Pacific , that
dividends have been voted In violation of the )
acts of 1S73 and 1S7S , not out of actual earn
ings and whllo the Union Pacific was still
In default to the United States. These pay
ments , from 1873 to 1SSI , nro stated to have )
been ? 27,000,000. Another specification ro-
eltes that the directors paid thd imprest on
thff first mortgage bonds of the Oregon Short
Line Itallroad company , that the directors ,
in violation of law and their ofllclal duties ,
paid subsidies to the Pacific Mall Steamship
company amounting to about $1,100,000.
Then follows n general arraignment of the
company and directors for a division of funds
In fraud of the United States. Coneiernlng
the directors , the resolution recites that "in
law and equity the directors who misappro
priated and misapplied the said property and
said funds are liable for and bound lo fe-J
store the same with Interest to the saul
Union Pacific company , In order that tho.
same may be applied to the discharge- its
debts. "
Section 3 of the resolution confers special
authority on United States circuit courts to
hear and advance the cases.
The resolution was referred to the ju
diciary amimlttee , of which Mr. IJoatner la
a member. . . . .
