stock Exchange Rules.
| II now appears that the new rules of
the Stock exchange may not go into eff
feet on January l as planned. They
have met with considerable opposition from
certain quarters, much that a special
meeting is called for this afternoon To-
! reconsider them. 1t can not be predicted

the meeting today will furnish a good
| fighting issue in the approaching annual
election of the Stock exchange. There is
