press these stocks. Meantime coalers had been
well supported, especially Delaware, Lackawanna
& Western, and this checked the downward
movement. Later the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul directors met and declared the usual divi-
dend Of 31s per cent and advices were received
from Chicago that the railway managers had
rived at q compromise. This had u good effect
on the market and the advance in prices, COM
pared with the lowest prices of the day, ranged
from AGA per cent. Delaware, Lackawanna 81
Western rose per cent. to 1914. New Jersey
Central, after an early decline to 46h, rose to
AK, reacted to 47as and left off at 4s% The
market closed firm. The short interest is large.
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western lent at $500

gan Central, Lake Shore ana Northern Pacific
preferred 1-o4, Union Pacific 1854, Philadelphia
& Reading fat. Cash stock was worth B1h
per cent more than regular and there was q diff
ference of KOS per cent. between SELLER and
regular. Compared with last nights. closing
prices are A0eh per cent. higher for Delaware,
Lackawanna Western, Delaware & Hudson,
Lake Shore, Missouri Pacific, New Jersey Cen
trail, New York Central, Pacific Mail, Union Pa
cifc and Western Union Telegraph, and A@1A

cent. to 80 and Pullman Palace Car to 1924.
Minneapolis & st. Louis preferred rose l per
cent. to 90.
The EUen;n9 Post says: The decline in New
Jersey Central, which puzzled the street yester
day, is now generally attributed, whether cor
rectly or not, to Vanderbilt, the explanation be-
ing that he desires to secure $4,000 shares of
New Jersey Central deposited as collateral for
loan to Philadelphia & Reading, and which loan
be was obliged TO protect for the Philadelphia &
Reading some months ago.
