THE STOCK MARKET.
The transactions of the day, while showing lit
tie less OF the lethargy that has prevailed some
time, were also attended with certain degree of
interest growing out OF an active movement OF one
or two or the stocks. Generally the market opened
firm, with Pacific Mail at 4o7s Al, Az, but at the
first Board it dropped back to the smaller fractions
OF 49, and continued to recede through 49, until at
the close Of the day 1t declined to 3sA. The influ-
ences at work to produce this result were various
and based mainly on the many reports circulated
concerning the character OF the forthcoming state
ment by the new direction It is understood that
this statement was made to the Board at their
three O'Clock session to-day, and that it may be
given to the public tomorrow. The officers are
extremely reticent with reference to It's contents
that they will set forth information than
has heretofore been published, and exhibit the
wants and requirements OF the company. In SYM
pathy with Pacific Mail, one or two OF the
OTHER STOCKS FELL OFF,
notable instance Of which was Ohio and Mssis-
sipp, the price opening at Al and declining to 1884,
recovering at the close, however, to 1914 1t should
be stated In this connection that statement was
promulgated to the effect that the company had
issued $500, 900 OF additional bonds which neces-
sariy produced depressing effect; but on investi-
cation 1t appeared that the amount named was a
part OF the regular issue OF bonds, retained in the
treasury Of the company, and only used for the
possible purchase OF some 1000 tons OF steel
rails with which it is proposed TO rc-equip the
road. Consequently the sale does not at all en-
large the debt. Indeed the returns OF the first
two weeks Of the last monthly report show an in
crease OF $4,000 of earnings, and the last two
weeks OF about the same amount, over the earn
ings Of the corresponding month last year. In
Rock Island the extremes were 1O94 and 1885,.
G., c. and j. c. showed variation between 3Os and
311s. Western Union declined from s45S to s41I
New York Central from 1915 to 10l. Wabash from
Gs7S to esq., Erie vibrated to the extent of about
Il per cent. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
was strong at 103 1855. The same may be said
of New Jersey Central, which sold at 1861 1884,
HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES.

prices OF the principal stocks during the day.
