ON 'CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, April 5.-The traders In
stocks made a plaything of New Jersey
Central stock today and worked their Will
with it. So inviting subject for specula-
ton was IL that IL absorbed a large share
of attention in very narrow market. its
wide and erratic fluctuations making 1t
specially available for the purposes of
the traders. There seemed to be an ex-
traordinary degree of doubt and lack OF
reliable Information as to the exact In
tentions of the directors at the meeting to-
day regarding the dividend. That the rate
was to be reduced was taken for granted
and stories had even found credence of late
that 1t was to be passed. The opening de-
cline in the stock market today seemed to
be based ON a belief that the dividend would
be reduced to a per cent basis. The price
sold off 27s to 76k on this. When 1t was an
nounced that a quarterly dividend of per
cent had been declared a rally of AZ to SoA
ensued. but this was followed by reac-
tion of Sss to 77s, due in part to the disap-
of the companys financial condition and to
fears as to the earnings having been up to
the dividend rate decided on. Delaware

Jersey Central. Lackawanna was dealt

Of adverse influences, or what were in

principal of these was the news that the
supreme court had refused to advance the
appeal OF the Joint Traffic association to a
hearing at the present term of the court
and had set the second Monday in October
as the date Of the hearing. The resump-
tion Of the Cuban question as a subject of
debate in the senate worked on the fears
of dealers to some extent. The losses in

Pavements

1t appears that wooden pavements find
the most favor in Paris. The blocks are
Sh by az inches, these being laid on
Portland cement concrete foundation:
a space of two inches Is left between the
curbstone and the side blocks, three
rows Of which nearest the curb are laid
longitudinally with the curb and this
space is filed with sand until the blocks
have ceased expanding. The blocks are
also grouted with Portland cement NOR
tar. In Rome, on the other hand, pave
ments Of stone blocks cut in a truncated
pyramldal form are in favor, the tops of
the stones being about five inches square
and tapered down to 31 inches square.
the depth being some seven inches; these
blocks are very carefully dressed, and
their pyramidal shape enables them to
be easily removed in case of repairs. 1t
Is hard to understand how these pave
mems can be preferred to asphalt Ger
tainly. with such q climate as is enjoyed
in California, no material can be mem
toned that will bear comparison with
our home production. Asphalt, laid on
concrete foundation makes the best
pavement in the world.
