Notwithstand- ing the earnest eifurts of those who have endeav- ored co infuse strength and confidence, they have eon checked by a stronger eleuient that repre- gonts an apparent belief in sril! lower feure: Pacific Mat continued ita erratic movemen ‘Wabash hus become more or less a gambie, under the adroit manipalation of an operator long ‘known to the siree!; Lake Shore is reported to have suiered a turther deciue in earnings for the third week in Feoruary amounting to $105,000; the New York Ceutral a loss during the same pertod of $190,000, aud a large iatiure occurted in she sugar trade.
