FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, WALL STREET, } WEDNrEpayY, May 4—6 P.

After the Boards, and tn late Street dealings, the market advanced and became strong. The early feature was 4 SMARP DECLINE IN HARLEM, which broke to 188, on generally credited re- ports that an issue of stock, variously e:ti- mated at from 10,000 to 40,000 shares, was contemplated for the purpose “Ot Talsing money with which to gonstrict the exten- slyg ONO Wepot at Forty-second street, Certain pergons officially connected with the road were stated to have denicd that the new issue was In- tended, but that the decline was due to the sale of 10,000 shares last week when the market price was 145, the transaction realizing $1,450,000, the stock so disposed of having been held for a long time in the sinking fund of the company. Other parties, how- ever, who pretend to be authorities, asserted that as Many as 30,000 and even 40,000 shares have been sola by persons inside the Harlem or Vanderbilt clique, & market having been previously mado by a circula- Uon of rumors that a scrip dividend of 80 to 100 per cent was about to be declared, a 1a New YorkCentral, to represent the Madison avenue horse car extension and the enhanced vaiue of the property generally.

The deliveries have been made, or will be made, with borrowed stock until the whole emount ig floated, when tho rule of the Stock Exchange re- quiring thivty days’ notice will be complied with and the borrowed stock returned with new Stock at the end of that time, The maticr is in utter doubt, however. Either of the contingencies is probable, It a scrip dividend 1s intended the clique have resorted to this method of buying the stock cheaply and of tenrpting in a “short” interest. On the other hand, it is equally likely that a new issue is contemplated. Those who wish to speculate upon the chances either way can, therefore, taxe their cho.ce. THE EFFECT UPON THE MARKET wes @ general unsettling of confidence, which led to sales and a decline of a quarter to three-quarieis per cent in the leading features of the present speculative period. Later in the day prices recovered in sympathy with a@ rally and ad- vance in Lake Shore, which rose to 9834 on the an- houncement that at the annual election for direc. | tors in Cleveland to-day the so-cailed Vanderbilt ticket was elected, incinding Horace F. Clark, (the Commodore's son-in-law,) for President, Augustus Schell for Vice President and James H. Banker for Treasurer. New Jersey Central had declined to 108}s on the proposition contained in an advertise- ment in the afternoon papers to issue new mortgage bonds, but rallied to 109% on the discovery that the new bonds were only to be exchanged for old ones about maturing. Ohio and Mississippi became strongly active in this rise and sold at 37%. Of the Vanderbilt securities Central scrip alone was un- favorably affected by the decline in Harlem, but sub- sequently rallied with the rest of the market, Rock Island was firmer on an increase of $80,000 in the earnings for April. The Northwest stocks advancea despite an untavorable exhibit in this respect, and Wabash was lower on sales to realize the recent handsome advance, At the close Pacific Mail rose to 4244. GOLD WRAK AND LOWER. The dental of the stories asserting the exclusion of American securities from the Stock Exchanges in Prussia, and the dulness and decline in foreign ex- change, which, in the absence of ademand, yielded to 10934 for prime bankers) sixty days sterling, and to 1097 for sight bills, led toa weak gold market, the price eventually drooping to 11434, without any pressure to sell.
