noon The stocks of the coal railroads in sympathy
with the decline in Reading at Philadelphia to IS
per cent made a downward surge, n. j. Central
selling at 966s and Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western at 100, subsequently rallyng to 9SSs
and III on reports from Philadelphia that
Reading was mp to 80, but closing fever
sh at 97l2 and 40 respectively. The
business in these stocks was much larger than usual
and the decline was doubt assisted by sales of
short stock. We were in error in stating in this
mornings TRIBUNE that the transfer books of New
Jersey Central would reopen on the 21st inst. 1t
was so stated in the advertisement Of the Company
announcing the dividend payable to-day Goth, but
it seems that, instead of opening as advertised the
books will remain closed until May for the cleo
ton of directors The remainder of the market,
after opening frac ion lower than the closing prices
of yesterday and improving Il to u per cent became
heavy, and so remained, closing very generally at
the lowest prices of the day. The trading to-
day. however, has developed nothing but brokers'
market. Lake Shore, Michigan Central and Erie
vibrating up and down, according TO the mOmentary
views Of the scapers" A short time before the
close there were indications of a rally and firm
wind-up but the sudden development of weakness
IN Western Union, which had previously been strong
all day. and its decline from 67as to 6Ga demoraIzed
the whole list. Pacific Mail was bought and sold to
small extent at 193ia2Ols0l 1912 Michigan
Central was unusually active at 52052l20
507s0517s Erie was rather quiet at 15i2
015@15ls Lake Shore has been COM
paratively steady at 55055li054l2. The larger
number of stocks upon the active list show de-
elines from yesterdays closing prices ranging from
Is to per cent, viz: Pacific Mail, Is Illinois Cen
tral and Michigan Central, each Il n. Y. Central,
Missouri Pacific and st. Paul, each - Erie, North
West Preferred Rock Island ST. Paul Preferred, and
Western Union each l2 Northwest Common and
Ohio and Mississippi each 6s /; Lake Shore, G., C.,
G. and l., 2; N. j. Central pig, and Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western, per cent. Petroleum ad-
yanced II per cent and other stocks closed the same
as on Wednesday The general market closed weak
and feversh. Tho following table shows the range
of the market:
