STOCK GAMBLING.
TICKERS UNABLE TO COPE WITH WORK. (Received November 24 at .11 p.in.) NEW YORK, November 23. The Stock Exchange broke all records for the volume of business, with the sale of 6,942,500 shares. Price:'' sky-rocketed, and later slumped, and closed irregularly. Tickers were delayed, although not so late as usual, due to the elimination of tabulation volumes of issues exchanged, and'' also to the last two days’ tape being borrowed, from the curb market. Toward the close the speed of the tabulation caused the Governors of the exchange to declare a holiday to-morrow to enable the clocks to catch up the work. A seat to-day was sold for 550,000 dollars.
