sTocKs-The Stock Exchange to-day
passed through another remarkable OK.
element in Erie, and the total business
must have exceeded 100000 shares. The
price advanced 8 per cent yesterday and
the highest point to-day was u per cent

was dull most of the day at 3S5, but at the
close had advanced TO 1884,. Boston d
Erie advanced 3 per cent. At the close
the market'was quiet and firm d
