The stock opened at l94@l9f
and afterwards advanced 10 2O., but
later in the day became very weak and
declined to Is, with the closing business
at lS:. This fresh decline was caused by
reports that impediments stood IN the way
OF Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
and the Delaware and Hudson Canal
companies making Il loan on the Erie
coal lands, Then followed rumors OF IL
receiver and q pressure to sell stock. The
next greatest decline was in Pacific Mail
and Western Union, the former falling
from 37s TO 36!, and the latter from ~
to I55 lAt the close Pacific Mail recover
ed to 1863 and Western Union to 5G4.
The decline in Western Union was slim
lated for time by the failure OF the loan.
The effect of this was not lasting, n II
was believed that the company could
fund its maturing bonds. New Jersey

than of late. A meeting Of the Pacific

Of directors OF Pacific Mail will also take
place to morrow, the election being in

no further negotiations between the Pan

that meeting of the Pacific Mail direc-
tors would be held tomorrow for the
purpose of considering the matter, and to
take some action in connection with the
