Fusion In Illinois.
Dispatch to THE UKE.
I IClllCAiio , August 2i. Chairman Oberly , of
the domocratio executive committee , was busy
today conferring with the democratic and
Butler leaders , concerning the talked of fusion
in this state between greenbackcrs and demo
crats. It is authoritatively stated that the
Butler managers offered to support the demo
cratic state ticket if they could do go safely ,
on condition that tlio democrats would give
thorn a fair representation on the electoral
ticket. What constitutes a fair representa
tion appears to have been the subject in con-
trover y , at Oborly's meeting with _ | tlu <
leaders. The greenback convention xvill beheld
held at Bloomington tomorrow. The ob
K stacles in the wav of fusion are many. On
the part of tha democrats it is thought tlmt
the coalition might lie construed as a confes
sion of xxcaknuss , while on tlio part of the
greenbaekers the loudens wore not sure of
their ability to deliver the latter , liowex'cr ,
they expressed the necessity of some cooperation
tion , it being feared that unless they were
given aid McKcighan would succeed in dis
membering the greenback organization in the
state and turning the body of it over to the
republicans.

NHXV You * . August 2G. Tlio general man
ager of the Central Pacific Is quoted as saying
that ho dooa not see how the Central Pacifu ,
can resume paying dividends for a comidora
bio tliuo. The Northern 1'acifio has taken the
business that male a dividend possible before
Tlio Central Pacific will have to wait unti
this loss is made good by the groxvth of other
business. It 18 reported that the trip of Cy
rus W. Field and others oxer the Noithen
Pacific road has something to do with the syndicate
dicato option on Villard stock. It is reporter
that about 1000 ( hares of Northern Pacific
preferred has been called under tlio option.
The stock market has again lap'ed into dull
ness. The first prices of the morning were
generally loxver than last evening , but this
was followed by a moderate rally , and then
another declino. Without any special feat
ure , this has boon the course throughout the
day. It is oxident that limited operators \xlio
hang nrovind the outer oilgo and pick up a
crumb now and then are anxiously waiting to
discover Home evidence of the leauine manip
ulators of either tbo bulls or the bears. It
matters not which they ehowthemselx-esto be ,
they xvill have a meager following xxhen the
position becomes known.
Foreign exchange advanced Jo and the leased -
sod generally assigned is that there are very
fexv commercial hill ? , and Kngllsbmon are still
selling Krio and also Vana-rbilts to a certain
extent.
