WALL STREET,

THURSDAY, July 29-6 y. ID.
No FRESH points OF interest were developed to-
day in connection with the recent failures, and
whatever excitement was aroused by them has
subsidized. The principal subject OF attention was
Western Union, about which for some time there
have been rumors OF q probable advance. The
transactions In the stock we're very large, and
toward the end attended with not little excite
ment ON the part OF both those seeking to cover
their short interest ana still larger following
who desire to avail themselves OF the promised
profits. The opening price was 81, from which 1t
commenced to improve until IL reached SAY.
Aoout Eve minutes before three p. NJ. 1t reacted
to and closed at s3H. 1t is rather an unusual in
cident OF Wall street speculation in these later
years for STOCK to decline ten or eleven per cent
and recover from the loss as western Union has
done within the last three days. 1t is indicative,
however, not only OF confidence in the security
but OF
GROWING FAITH
in all good dividend paying stocks. rumor was
current during the day that the company had
leased the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph lines
for q term OF years, with a guarantee OF per
cent on the capital-whieh Is $4,000, o00-on the
basis OF 20 Tor the stock. The sales amounted TO
GA 500 shares. Lake Shore was next most active,
advancing from 60K to 616. ohio and Mississippi
was more animated than usual, some 10000
in spite OF the endeavors OF It's friends TO sustain
the stock, and declined from 22z to FIX. At the
close the price rallied in sympathy with the rest
OF the market to 2l9s. Pacific Mail sold at 3Sh a
37ZS SO, ending at 3SH. Northwestern common
sold at 407I 40T 4oA. Union Pacific was drmer
at rs q 73% a 1871, and 1t Is intimated
that much higher prices will be estab-
