NEW YORK. N. V., March 22.—There was afallingoS inbusiness at the Stock Exchange ,to-
day, the gales aggregating only165,254 shares.}irn_iness characterized the early, trading, the ab-sence of uniavoraole news from the Levant andtbe steady absorp:ion of the Vanderbllts being themain factors a: work. In the case of New YorkCentral, it was again stated that the banking syn-dicate was making progress with its scheme fortbe refunding ol the company's indebtedness, andon this tbe stock rose to lU2. The improvementinthe general run of active stocks was- less im-portant and ranged from 14 to1per cent. A sud-den break in Jersey Central from 90*4 to 88 de-stroyed the sood feeiing, however, and1 the Im-provemetit was generally -lost.

STUCK IN THE MAIL TUBE.Pneumatic Transit Obstructed by »
Brass Letter-Carrier.In shooting tbc mail through the under-
ground pneumatic tube between the Post-ortice and the Bourse a couple oi days agoa or&ss carrier full of letters stuck fastmidway on its route. One or two otherspiled up against itand formed an obstruc-tion which could not be dislodged by anyair current forced in. The tuoe was ren-dered temporarily useless by the accidentand is still so, for the carriers nave not yet
been removed.Owing to the inaccessibility of the long
metal tube under the streets the task ofiindingthe troublesome carriers is no easyone. It is believed, however, that byusing an ingenious French device, es-pecially adapted for this emergency byEngineer Arthur Falfcenan of this city,tne difficulty may be speedily overcomeand apath cleared for resumption ofpneu-matic mail transit. The object is to locatethe obstruction exactly, and then, by dig-ging from above, it can be taxen out bycutting the tube.
The device was put in operation at theBourse end of the system yesterday, andthere is every indication that the resultwillbe satisfactory. Itconsisted oi firinga pistol into the end of the tube and ac-curately recording the time that elapseduntil the echo of the shot came back.
'
The sounii traveled along the tube at itsknown rate of 1100 feet a second, and,meeting the obstruction, was echoed backto the orifice in just 291 second after thefirst report. From this it was calculatedthat the sound went about 3200 feet, orIGOO feet each way. The latter distancewas decided upon as that between the ob-struction and the station at the Bourse.This fixed itat a point along the line be-tween Sixth and Seventh streets, wherethe workmen are directed to dig. Thetime consume! by the sound in its jour-ney through the tube was measured bythe vibrations of arubberdiaphgram, elec-trically connected with a chronograph.
