Declines Sharply.

lew York, Dec. ga scramble
to sell stock OF the NipNssing mines
company took place on the curb stock
market today, as a. result Of the an
nouncement on Saturday that the
Guggenheim interests refused to ex-
ercise an option on 100000 shares OF
the stock at SIS per share. After
closing at $19.75 on Saturday the
stock opened at 10 and within few
minutes dropped to 16. After about
10000 shares had changed hands, be-
tween Is and Is, there was a check to
the liquidation, and two hours after
the opening the percent rallied to Is.
The trading was extremely active and
excited and many snembers of the
stock exchange deserted their trading
posts to witness the excitement which
ruled the market In the street. where
the brokers joetled eacn other in q
heavy snow storm. Until about 2
o'clock the price WAS held in the
neignborhood OF Is, but at that hour
there was another sharp break and
the price went as low as 15K before
the decline was checked. At the
close Nippissing was quoted at 1874.
1t was estimated that $4,000 shares
were traded in during the day.
