Walt, street, )
Wednesday. April 7?6 P. M. J
The mock market wan moderately active to-day,
bat undisturbed t>y atiy startling feature* or by
tbe usual rumors winch are Invented to give zest
to tns speculative siiuatidii. Tbe chief surprise
ol ttie moment was a sudden and, to the majority
or operators, au unexpected advance In Atlantic
?nd Pacific telegraph, which opened at 24%,
julckty advanced to 26%, and almost as quickly
receded to 25%. From th^s point the movement
upward was steady, uutjl at the close It sold at
27% a 27% The rise is said to be due to the de
parture of the steamer Faraday and the possi
bility that In the event of success in completing
tbe new cable a consolidation will be made with
Western Union. This, however, is among the
events ol tbe luture, and in the absence or .Mr.
Orton nothing Is likely to be done except by the
speculators. Pacific Mali signalized itsell by drop
ping to 41% soon alter the opening, but recovered
to 43% on buyers'option, closing at 43% a 43%.
There was considerable speculation concerning
the luture arrangements between Pacific Mall and
Panama, and It was said tnat ageuts of the latter
company were large purchasers of the stock;
neuce its rise; but we (ailed to trace these state
ments to a truthiul source. Western Union
opened at 77%, with largo sales, and gradually
advanced to 78% at tne close. Wabash advanced
to 16% and closed at. 15%. Union Pacific began at
70%, advauced with various fluctuations to 71,
closing at 70%. It was noteworthy that the move
ment In this stocK to day was less lrreguiar and
rapid and confined within one per cent. Erie
moved lrom 28% to 30%, ending at 30. LakeShoro
was steady at 73%. St. Paul c jaimon maintained
Its firmness and encouraged holders by advancing
to oB% and ending at this llgui e. The preierrcd
itock reached 58%. Ohio and Mississippi sold at
28% a 28% a 28%. Hannibal and St. Joseph was
steady at about 27% a 28. Other changes will be

WALL STREET NOTES.
THE PACIFIC MAIL BPICCLATITB rBAUDS?MRUT
IN (i Ot THE COMPANY?k STOCK JOBBING SEN
SATION.
The Pacific Mail canard Bad mil effect yesterday
morning. Rumors ot en alleged delineation in the
China branches or to* company served trie pur
poses or tin; lDfamond stockjobbers, wno puU tho
wires of corpora-ions as confidence operators
secure their prey, and the victims on the Barbary
Coast were counted by scores. The originators of
the shamelut lies profited by tne early panto
causad by their published Actions, and reaped a
GOLDEN BUT ILL-BEGOTTEN HARVEST
from their labncatlons. Pacific Mall stocic opened
at 41K. x whlcn price all or the offers were taken
oy the speculators in confluence?or confidence
speculators?and ai the close or business the price
or the shares was 43*. The moral is not hard to
be drawn, sltBouffh the morale or the whole pro
coaling is easily characterized. A Herald repre
sentative called on Mr. George 8. Scott, the
M naging Director and Vice-Pretideni of the
Pacific Mall Company, who stated that no defalca*
tlon or any kind had come to the knowledge of
the company, and that they bad no reason to
belluve that the accounts were false In any
one particular. It is very eaey to be seen
how statements rrom Hong Kong, Nagasaki
or Yokohama, not being immediately transmuted
to Ban Francisco and thence to New York, were
capable of misconstructlou; but, as the Hems
or coal, Ac., were targe and settlements not en
tirely tn consonance with tne routine ot adjacent
office business, advices or payments might be de
layed sna a raise construction pot upon the mat
