THE FINANCES.
PLATTSMOUTH,
NEBRASKA.
New York, July 2. The stock mar-
kt-t l.aa leen lefcs active toilay, but
Mroii",, ulthough tluro id :i lessrneil
IVflin of the ronlidi'tice Hint had lfen
ft-It for a few days previously. The
fact, ia, that the bulls arc resortin; to
the rumor committee, which nort of
tactics usually precedes a break. Trad
ing is purely profession, and the out-
i-ide public has not yet come ia.
VANDEKBiLT
is out with another of his newspaper
bull interviews, and devoted himself
mainly to Lake Shore and partly to
North w stern. Then it is mnounced
tl at he has taken up and paid for over
fifteen thousand shares of Lake Shore
within a week. The stock went up 4
per cent., but dropped back 2 per ceut.
when Vanderbilt brokers and the weak
shorts stopped buyin";. Northwestern
common sold up over C per eent. and
lost only fractionally. Later iu the
day preferred stock jumped up 4$ per
ctnt., and lell off ouly j per cent.
TIIK HCI.GE
ii attributed to the buying for the pool
which has been formed it is sai1, to
take a big block of stock, and bought
over twenty five shares to day. The
preferred was especially strong, be
cause there was so little floating stock
in the market, it being held so largely
for investment. New Yoik Centralis
l4 better than yesterday. The erang
ers are all sfron?, Illinois Central sell
ing 2j better, and Burlington & Quin-
cy lli. The Gould stocks have been
more quiet, with smaller changes. Un
ion Pacific was bulled up two points by
the cohering of shorts, and lo&t one
half the gain in a very brief time in the
afternoon. It is said that the new pool
in Lackawana negotiated large loans
again today which indicates a further
attack upon that stock, but it has sold
up 1J per cent, today. The story that
ill health has decided
s. n. II. CLARK
to resign the general management of
the Union Pacific was received today,
and supplemented by the story that the
place had been tendered "Tom" Potter
There i?, as usual, no foundation for
these rumors.
A RAILROAD PRESIDENT KILLED.
Cincinnati. July 2. This afternoon
as a train on the Cincinnati & Eastern
road was crossing a trestle over a ra
vine east of "Winchester, W. R. MoGill,
president of the road, fell from the
door of the bggae ear to the ground,
a distance of 50 leet, and was instantly
killed.
BREWSTER'S nriNION.
Attorney General Brewster submit
ted to the President today, in compli
ance with the latter's request, a long
and carefully prepared opinion upon
the bill for the restoration of Fitz John
Porter to the army, in which he expres-
es the opinion that the bill is clearly
unconstitutional. lie says that in part
the bill is impos s upt nt e P.esident a
duty to appoint the person designated
therein without any support in the con
stitution. It is an assumption of im
plied power which is not based upon
any express power, and clearly involves
the cou.-titutional rights of the Presi
dent. Congress ha3 not the right to
enact as law that which will be inef
fectual. It cannot enact, advise or
counsel; it must make laws that are
rules of action, not expressions of will,
that may or may not be followed. If
this bill be ac injunction, commanding
the President to appoint, it is an usurp
ation; and if it be only counsel it is
without the essential element of law,
and congress can enact nothing hut that
wh eh is to have vigor and effect of
law But again the bill is subject to
objection upon the ground that con
;resi thereby in effect, creates an ofijeer
only up:n condition that it is to be
asked by the particular individual
namet'. If th:s i.r.nciple w -re aiopted
geuera'ly in the creation of offices it
would obviously resu t in coustrniuing
the appointing powr r to accept the
c nditU'ii imposed and fill ofiuces with
individuals designated by congress,
th' s frustrating the design of the con
stit ition. which is iha' an officer must
be atone selected according to the judg
ment and will of theperson and LoJy
in w orn the t owers oi nomination,
ad ice and cogent and appointment
are vested.
