The tin roof of tho Odd Fellow's

New York, Nov. 12. "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.
