Difcult to
 Annou
Unforeseen Difficult nors to Cancel Plans
 Previously Annoyl1

New York, Nov. 19.-Th
 of the Stock Exchange annou
 afternoon that because of uI
 difficulties the plan to red
 exchange for dealings in bond1 been indefinitely postponed.
 Earlier in the day it was offici9 stated that trading in this class securities would be resumed on Sat- urday. subject to minimum prices
 Soon after this announcement was made officials of the exchange re- ceived inquiries from various parts of the country, some of which stated that the proposed opening did not al- low sufficient time for bond houses and other dealers in these securities to make adequate arrangements. It was intimated also that pressure had been brought upon the exchange by prominent banking interests which are said to have declared that do- mestic and financial conditions were not yet sufficiently stable to permit the resumption of such operations with safety.
 It was also learned that soon after the announcement of the proposed re- opening on Saturday, large blocks or bonds were offered in t he unlisted market at prices several points below the recent high level, indicating that a return to normal trading might be attended by considerable hquidation.
 These and other factors, when brought to the attention of the gov ernors of the Stock Exchange, caused a nasty cancellation of the plans pre- viously announced.

THE UMP |
: BY EDWARD VANCE COOK.
Umpire, in the games beginning,
Seven strikes were pitched that in
ming;
Balls" thou called them; thine the
SHINING;
On thy head the guilt.
Umpire, how could'st thou have beck
oned
Ballyhooley in from second?
Safe he was and i'll thou reekoned.
On thy head the guilt,
Umpire, Flimfam fumbled badly;
Muffengrabbit played but sadly,
But we witnesses cry madly,
"On thy head the guilt" \
Umpire, though our pitcher tossed
them,
Though our catcher lodged and lost
them,
Thy sins were the ones which cost
- them;
On thy head the guilt.
Umpire, though our hits were scat
tered,
Though our feld-defense was shat
q tered,
Little had these details mattered-
On thy head the guilt.
Umpire, each cause hath its martyr
Who can never hope to barter
Good intent for any quarter
- On thy head the guilt.
Umpire, though we fay and hout |
thee,
Though forever we viii doubt thee. |
