CLOSING PRICES or BOSTON STOCKS
WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.

|
Friday, April lap. m.
| The stock market returned to a state of almost
| complete stagnation The movement of prices
was irregular, and at times fcvcrsh, but there
was generally no selling pressure. and, in fact,
most stocks recorded advances of l-lal-2 per cent
on buying, which appeared to be principally Tor
| the short account Traders were inclined evil
IDENTIFY TO close their contracts at the end OF the
business week. In the afternoon prices advanced
| slucaishly but the exceptions 10 the common
movement possessed the greater significance.
Manhattan Railway early advanced per cent 10
l 81 -, but on small sales fell per cent, and
suffered final loss Of , "a per cent. Pacific
| Mail and Union Pacific closed at their opening
| prices, bit with fractional losses These stocks
were not even relatively active, Of course, and
| for that reason their exceptional weakness was
prominent feature Of the market The decline in
| Richmond Terminal stocks and bonds 10 have
lcen expected after the announcement that DreNcl,
Morgan * Co. Will not attempt a reconstruction
of the company until the bulk of the securities
| has been deposited with them, when they will
| publish their scheme AMI the terms which they
will underwrtc it. That is simply blind
pool of the blindest kind. After holders of
the stocks and bonds have surrendered
| their rights the firm will what amount il
Will graci0usly be pleased To levy upon them.
Will the assessment on the common stock bc -
| ! ana find out at your lesarc In the case Of
Richmond Terminal however, il IL lOhsOns choice.
| and probably the proposition will b. accepted
with alacrity, If not with entire satisfaction.
| Tho very bodness Of the proposal suggests fun
knowledge Of the present holdings Of the stock
| and bonds.
The afternoon advance in tho market was
caused rarity by rumOrs that the exports Of gold
| tomorrow would be considerably smaller than hal
! been expected. They Will amount 70 Sl,2JO.OOO.
and the whole amount was taken from the Sub
| Treasury In exchange for rgaltendcr notes The
rates for foreign exchange remained strong. and
larger shipments next week must be considered
| probable.
