"When the gong sounded for opening of business this morning on the stock exchange, there was a yell and a rush and pan demonium reigned. The galleries were crowded to their utmost capacity by a class which only visits the street in times of great ex citement. Eichly attired ladies pushed forward for a sight of the struggling brokers and to the most cas ual observer it would bo seen that it was a time of unwonted excitement. The market opened stronger than might have been expected and there was evidently a hopeful view oE the situation, despite tho fact that the early London advices were not very favorable. The trading was simply enormous, especially in Villard's and St. Paul stocks and several thousand shares were sold under the rule, com pleting the sales begun vesterdav. The general market declined slightly from the opening with a 2 per cent, drop in Burlington. The Vil- lards, however, were strong, and it looks as if the conditions were favor able to a decided improvement. The scare is over. BETWEEN TWO FIRES. Governor Hill anO. His Political Aspirations. Special to The AsTonrAN.l AiiBANTT, N. Y., Nov. 12. Governor Hill's friends are divided in their opin ion as to the wisdom of his taking the United States senatorship. Some think he will nun himself as candi date for the presidency if he accepts the office of senator, while others say that such action by him, will be his political salvation Perhaps it is because of the conflict between these two bodies of advisers, that Hill refrains from indicating fully what his own intentions are in the matter. If he accepts the senatorship, and snouia oecomo president, he will be compelled to give up the senatorship alter Holding it a littlo more than a year and some of his friends are pointing out that in that case the probabilities are that the republicans would elect hi3 successor as senator.
