The bull speculation in stocks made progress
slowly but rather surely to-day. The market opened
with irmuess, and on a small business prices were
advanced from to Il per cent. the largest dealings
having been in Western Union Telegraph, which adj
yanced per cent, from oO9 to 9ls and Pacific Mail,
which went up 4, to 3sg. on the opinion of new
counsel that the company have authority in law TO
issue bonds 70 pay for their new steamers, which
the directors. it Is understood have determined 10
do; and if they can find purchasers for the bonds
il is not improbable that the stock
may make still further advances IN price.
The negotiations for 100000 at san Francisco hay
ing failed. other measures were taken at a meeting
of the Directors held to-day TO raise money for the
time being and a committee was appointed TO con-
sideI the subject Of issue OF bonds and 20 report
