At a meeting OF the directors of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company yesterday Russell Sage resigned
the Presidency and retired from the direction His
retirement, it is said, grows out Of the fact
that he was discovered selling "calls" on
the Company's stock. The evidence OF his
operations was contained in letter from Jay Gould
to C. J. Osborn, which read before the Board In
vindication of the latter. The Presidency has Deen
rendered TO James Low Of Low. Hartman 81 Co.,
but he has not yet accepted. 1t is probable that
Mr. Sage will retire from the Presidency of the Pan
