MCI WorldCom, the No. 2 U.S. long distance company, had been in talks for several weeks to acquire Nextel, sources said. The companies met last weekend, but were unable to agree on a price and have since ended discussions on a possible deal, sources said.

MCI WorldCom and Nextel declined to comment.
