HOPING FOR TICKERS.
a PROMISE OF BETTER ARRANGEMENTS.
NO DEFINITE PLANS YET MADE KNowN--oUoTA
TIoNs POSTED AT THE CONSOLIDATED


The second days experience OF Stock Exchange
houses without the BENEFIT OF ticker service called forth
increased number Of complaints from customers and
excited condemnatory expressions from members who
had previously thought the action Of the governors
wise one had been neutral in their expressions Of
opinion. Some houses fairly we'll satisfied with
the business they did, but Others were disappointed at
the results Of the day. In the five hours Of business
Yesterday the total transactions amounted to about
254 900 shares against record Of less than $4,000
shares In the two business hours Of saturday. The
general dIssasfacon with the suspension Of ticker
service however, alayed only by the suppostion
that IL would not be of long standing. Vice.Presl-
dent Morse of the Stock Exchange excited hopes by
authorizing this statement in reference to Street
rumors: " The current report that there had been a
meeting Of the Governing Committee and that IL had
decided TO resume the ticker service Is premature.
The prevalent idea, however that this arrangement
is permanent L. entirely erroneous. This absence OF
tckers is simply temporary TO lay the basis for
better Arrangement for the future Everything is
progressing satisfactorily TO this end.'
No definite statement of the project OF the gov
ernors however could be obtained. After business
hours Tong conference of the Committee on Arrange
ments was held, but when It was over h II. Thomas,
the chairman, said there was nothing TO mako pup
lie He youchsafed the information emphaticaly that
there had been no change in the ticker situation
No confirmation could bo obtained for rumorS that
there WAS any deal pending between the Exchange and
the Gold auG stock Telegraph Company.
