SToCEs-The market was comparatively
firm in the eaaly dealings and prices ad.

call u weaker feeling set in and there was
a decline, ranging from x to . per cent.
After midday there was a sharp pressure to
sell, especially in the trunk lines. This
movement was based on dispatch from
Chicago that the New York Central had re.
duced passenger fares TO SIS to New York
in consequence OF n fast train on the Penn.
sylvania road. This was followed by n re.
port that the pooling arrangement had fall.
len through and that the railroad war will
be reopened. The market afterthe second
call rallied from 4 to Y per cent from the
extreme low prices current after midday,
but towards the close became weak
again and the loves! prices OF the day
made. In the final dealings there was
some heavy sales of long stock and the
bears were also putting out short lines
which dragged the market down. Pitts.

The Affairs of A. X. p. Lord of Buxton.

The creditors of A. X. P. Lord of Buxton,
held meeting at Lancaster Hall at O. clock
yesterday. Mr.. Lord, who is an extensive lum-
Der dealer on the Saco river, was obliged to
suspend payment last Tuesday. There were
about fifty gentlement present, residents of
Portland, Boston and the towns along the Saco
river. Mr.. Josiah Thurston, of Freedom one
of the heaviest creditors, called the meeting to
order, and on his nomination Hon. D. r. Hast
ings of Fryeburg, was elected chairman. Mr..
Edward G.. Gardner, of the Bartlett Land and
Lumber Company. was chosen Secretary.
Mr.. Lord on being called upon, stated that
he estimated his liabilities at about 800, 900.
He had found himself unable to 90 on, and
therefore had called this meeting. He had no
exhibit to make.
Mr.. Thomas Shaw asked him if he had made
mortgage of any of his property lately, and
Mr.. Lord said he made mortgage of $14, 500
on the first of June.
Mr.. Shaw moved that committee of ten be
appointed, who should choose subcommittee
of three to thoroughly investigate Mr.. Lords
affairs and report to the creditors careful
schedule at a future day. The following were
appointed Messrs. Shepard, Ordway and Mill
er of Boston, Hiram G. Abbott of Conway, N
H., Thurston of Freedom, w. II. Woodbury.
and Thomas Shaw of Portland, Tibbetts and
Weston of Fryeburg, and Barnes Walker of
Lowell. This committee subsequently, reported
that they had decided to recommend commit
tee of five, representing all sections, which re-
commentator was accepted by the creditors.
The following were appointed: 81. A. Piper of
Boston, Thomas Shaw Of Portland, Josiah
Thurston of Freedom, Barnes Walker of Low.
ell, and Ell. C.tAbbott of Conway.
Mr.. Ordway of Boston, was not at all salts
fed with the result of the meeting. He said
that he felt he was going back to Boston as
blind as when he came No exhibit had been
made by Mr.. Lord, SO that he could report to
Boston about what percentage would be paid.
He hoped the committee would make a most
searching investigation; for his own part he
felt he had come down on FOOLS errand.
Mr.. G. E. Jose of Portland, thought Mr.. Lord
had never found himself in such position be-
fore, and he had at once called together his
creditors before he was really prepared TO do
60. Mr.. Lord had been the possessor of large
capital, but there had been great shrinkage in
values the last few years, and in addition, bust
ness had been very dull. He thought and hop
ed his friends from Boston would find that af-
fairs would look better when thoroughly inves-
tigated.
Mr.. Lord, in answer to aquestion, sta ted that
he valued his real estate at about $75OO0. Mr..
Hastings says it cost $76 200, although it would
not of course bring anything Ike that sum now
that Mr. Lord had steamboat valued at So
600, and manufactured lumber valued at $4O,-
600. About $4,000 is owned in Boston, $4,000
| in Portland and the rest in other Maine towns
and in New Hampshire.
