WEDNESDAY, April 2s-P. N.


Tho nrincipal feature of the stock market to-day
has been the extraordinarily large business in West
ern Union Telegraph without an advance or decline
in the stock which would seem to be commensurate
with the transactions. The investment demand Tor
dividend having stocks appears to have been consd-
erably less than that of yesterday; and on small
business in this kind of securities the declines
seem 10 be about equal to the advances. Ii is quite
apparent that the extraordinary activity in western
Union lent degree of irmness to the general list AT
different points during the day, but the market fire.
ouently returned to a condition of weakness. The
total sales for the day were large, reaching 329,3oo
shares of which 900 shares, or more
