In the early dealings at the Stock Exchange
to-day the market was strong and higher,
with an advance Of 14934 per cent, Western
Pacific Mail, and Lake Shore being the strong
est shares. Before midday the upward move
ment was checked and weaker feeling set in.
From this time until the close lower prices
were the rule. Speculation was adversely af-
feeted by reports of failures in the grain trade
| at Chicago and Liverpool, and rumOrs that
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy and
| Union Pacific conference at Boston to-day had
| not been harmonious. Prices declined 14(02
