CITY, Two o'CLocK. The dealings in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce Markets during the last few days have been rather inactive. In tea few transactions have taken place, as a large quantity will be offered for public competition to-day, and prices are expected to rule a shade lower. Sugars have been in moderate request, without material alteration in values. For the better descriptions of coffee an increased demand has bean experienced, and quotations have been firmer, owing to the smallness of the stocks on hand. Compared with those of the same period of last year, rice, fruit, and spices have been in fair re quest, at former rates, and a moderate business has been done in tallow, at rather enhanced quotations. The Royal mail steamer Tyne, which leaves to day for the Brazils will take out £23,Boo—viz., £9,800 in gold, and £14,000 in silver. The Norfolk has arrived from Melbourne with £140,800 in specie. Notice has been given by the Spanish Financial Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re. deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the 30th inst., for which purpose 458,020 reals have been assigned by the Government. The particulars have been advertised of the con version of a number of Portuguese Bonds of the External Debt, amounting together to £6,590. A call of £3 per share has been made by the Directors of the Bahia Gas Company, payable on the 23d inst. A fair amount of business was transacted in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and prices have an upward tendency. The sales were esti-, mated at 12,000 bales. A meeting was held to-day of the creditors of Messrs. Wm. Archer and son, corn and flour factors, who suspended on the 22d inst. The liabilities are estimated at £35,687, and the assets at £14,918, the estate consequently showing about Bs. in the pound. After some discussion a composition of Bs. in the pound was proposed, payable as follows, viz., 2s. 6d. within a month, 2s. 6d. in February, Is. 6d. in April, and the remaining Is. 6d. in June, the last instalment to be secured. The demand for money in the general discount market continues steady, but the rates are rather easier, partly in consequence of the impending release of the dividends, which will augment the available resources, which are already superabun dant. A fractional decline has taken place in the value of the English Funds, owing to a few sales, and a further depreciation on the Paris Bourse. Con sols are, therefore, very heavy at 93,1 for money and 11th inst., and 93: for November. Very little business his been negotiated for transfer, but there is a large supply of stock in the market. India Loan is steady at 1031 w ; ditto 5 per Cent. En faced Paper has receded to 96/, but the Bonds have advanced to iar and 4s. premium. Exchequer Bills are heavy at 2s. to 4s. premium. In Foreign Securities the dealings have been limited, and prices show increased heaviness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 73 to 731 ; ditto New, 551 to 561 ; Mexican remain at 22: 7 ; Grenada Active have declined to 161 ; ditto Deferred to 6 ; Portu guese to 431 4 ; Brazilian 41 per Cents. to 871 ; and Russian Scrip to 1 prem. _ _ _ The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are prem. ; the Thames and Mersey, I prem. ; and the Universal, t I prem. The trameactions in the Railway Share Market have been moderately active, and a further improve ment has taken place in prices. Lancashire and Yorkshire and North-Western have advanced Os.; Eastern Counties, Great Northern, Great Western, North-Eastern Berwick, and South-Eastern, 10s. ; South 'Jevons and London, Chatham, and Dover declined 10s. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings continue in fair demand. Antwerp and Rotterdam remained steady at 6 to 61; Bahia and San Francisco brought 9k ; Recife and San Francisco, 101 ; East Indian remained firm at 100: ; and Great Indian Penin sula at 96! ; Grand Trunk of Canada, improved to 271- ; and Great Western of Canada declined to 131. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have shown no change of importance. London and Westminster have improved to 60+ 61 ; Union of London to 254 ; and Peninsular and Oriental Steam realise 74.

(Befere Mr. Commissioner Evans.) IN RE PENN AND PENN.-IMPORTANT DECISION. In this matter, Mr. Perry, from Mr. Buchanan's, applied that a sum of £3O, being one quarter's salary due to a traveller, formerly in the service of the bankrupt, should be paid in full. The solicitor to the assignees had no ground for opposi tion, and the Commissioner granted the application, intimating that it must be stated in the order that it was through inadver tence that the amount was omitted at the first meeting. The remainder of the business was chiefly choices and audits. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS- (THIS DAY.) (Befoie Mr. Payne.) David Greig was indicted for stealing 281bs. of lead and two sacks, the property of his masters, Messrs. Holland and Co., builders, Duke-street, Bloomsbury, on the 25th of September last. The jury found the prisoner guilty, and recommended him to mercy. Mr. Payne sentenced the prisoner to four calendar months' imprisonment in the House of Correction, with hard labour, and, but for the recommendation of the jury, he would have had 12 months. POLICE INTELL IGEN CE-( TIIIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY PREVENTED—LUCKY ESCAPE.—James Fur• niere, described as a musician, and James Anderson, a plasterer, and both of whom refused their addresses, were charged before ➢Tr. Tyrwhitt with loitering in Golden square for the purpose of committing a felony. From the evidence of Henry Dawson, 301 A, it appeared that at a rather late hour the previous night ho saw the two prisoners standing at the County Fire-office, in Regent street. They left there with another man, and he saw Furniere go into the doorway of a shop, and afterwards join Anderson again. He then followed them into Golden square, and at the dark side of it he saw Furniere enter the doorway of No. 27, and afterwards No. 29, and from there go into John-street, the doorway of No. 8 in which street they also entered, and they, evidently having caught sight of him, walked back to the County Fire-office again. He had tried the doors of the different houses with a key found on Anderson, and it opened ono of them. Fur niere said he had not known Anderson long, but Anderson said he had known the other a long time. Anderson said they came out to take a walk with two young "ladies," but did not meet them, and the reason why they went into the doorways was because Furniere had " the bile." Dawson said they both refused their addresses. Anderson on the 12th July was charged with being concerned in a watch robbery before Mr. Beadon, but discharged, the evi dence not being sufficiently conclusive, and the other pri - goner was charged on the 27th July with loitering. Mr. Tyrwhitt said in cases of this kind constables were of more use than in any others, as they prevented robberies from taking place. Constables who hunted such fellows did their duty far better than waiting till a robbery was effected, and he was sorry he was obliged to discharge them, but the constable had done quite right in taking them into custody. THAMES. EXPOSING GOODS Fon SAms.--Ellen Young, a poor and squalid-looking woman with a child in her arms, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged with stealing 14 yards of carpeting, value 6s. 6d., the property of Mr. Mittlebrook, a draper, of No. 18, Crisp-street, Poplar. The prosecutor said there was a piece of carpet exposed for sale on the pavement outside his shop, and having heard that it was stolen, and that the prisoner, who was pointed out to him, was the thief, he went after her and overtook her about 300 or 400 yards from the shop with the carpet in her possession, and took it from her. It was worth 6 s. 6d. Mr. Selfo—And it was exposed for sale in the street holding out a temptation to theft. The prosecutor said there was always a boy watching his goods. Mr. Selfe—But he does not watch them sufficiently to prevent robberies; and if he did, the system of exposing goods for sale in the street, in front of tradesmen's shops, would not be the less objectionable. Besides, it is illegal. The prisoner, who is 38 years of age, and said she had been living at No. 1, James-street, Poplar, vehemently protested that she kicked against the piece of carpeting on the pave ment, and picked it up. The prosecutor said the carpet was on the top of other goods outside his shop and not on the pavement at all. Mr. Selfe—lt amounts to the same thing. You hold out a temptation to crime in every way, You have no right, morally or legally, to put your goods in the street. The practice has caused an immense deal of crime. I hope the court to which I am going to send this case will not allow any expenses. I never will under such circumstanceig. The county ought not to be put to any expel ;se wliateTer. The prisoner is committed for Among the more serious losses is that of the Arctic, iron screw steamship, Captain Bowes, commander, which was on her usual passage from Hull and Grimsby to St. Peters kurg. By the telegraph despatch, dated Skioe, Saturday morning, October 6, it appears that the ill-fated steamer was wrecked on the 4th inst. near Lowoig, on the coast of Jutland, and that four of the passengers and two of the crew were drowned. The Arctic was a new ship, having only been last year built, and was 674 tons. She was a favourite vessel on the station, and had a valuable gene ral cargo. It was understood that she was insured altogether for £50,000, more than half of which was effected at Lloyd's. The fatal wrecks of several English ships with all on board are reported. They were mostly from the Tyne and northern ports. The brig Marsden, Mr. Eskdaile master, of Shields, was carried high on the beach at Nidden, near Memel; also a Pomeranian schooner and two ships stranded near Libau. The telegram states that the names of the vessels are not known, but that all hands were lost. Near Borkum two ships were wrecked, the Tiberius, Captain Harris, and the Carlisle, belonging to Shields, both crews perishing, The brig Hendon, of Sunderland, was lost at Geestenwade, and the master, Mr. Lon gstaff, mate, and four men were drowned. In the Cattegat a schooner was seen to founder by the Mercurius, which arrived at Elsineur on the sth ; nothing was seen of the crew, and it was believed that they had perished. The telegram from Thisted, dated yesterday morning, states that during the hurricane of the 4th, sth, and 6th, no fewer than 13 ships were cast ashore. They are thus enumerated—Richard, Schultz master, of Dantzic ; Hertha, of Coslin ; Palme, of Stettin ; Helene, of Soderhamn ; Meickena, of Groningen; Eugene and Pauline, of Nantes ; Travail, of St. Malo ; Harmonie, of Frederikstadt ; Louise, of Libau; Mina and Carl, of Leer ; and Espiegle, of Jacquey. At Skioe, in addition to the Arctic steamer, seven vessels, laden with timber and grain, were lost. They were the Berend, of Harlingen; Emanuel, of Friesland; Maria, of Stockholm; Margaretha, of Burgtade ; Kronsprins Frede rick, of Drobak ; Albrecht Thaer, of Doram. A despatch from Riga mentions several vessels to have been stranded on the Livonian coast during the gale, and that they had since become wrecks. The Cyrus, bound to Dundee from Riga, was stranded on the Oesel. The Ludovico, from Memel to Lynn, and the Francisco, from the Tyne to Memel, were wrecked at Helgared, near Helingborg. The Agnes, from London to Stettin, was lost at Tore kow. The brig Jamesons, Mr. Robertson, from New castle, is reported to be lost near Norden. The brig St. Lawrence was stranded on Bornholm. The Wider, from Sunderland, was cast ashore near Proebbernan, and the Russian ship Archangel Michael, from St. Petersburg, was stranded and lost near Nerve. From Elsinore, a list of waterlogged and leaky ships has been forwarded by tele graph ; among them are the Harmonie, from Sundswall, for Douglas ; the Henriette, Kleist, for Hull ; the Alchymist, Andrews, from Newcastle, for Cronstadt ; and the Minstrel Boy, for Littlehampton. The Alnwick packet was lost on the Moasdroogden. It is needless to add that considerable anxiety is felt for several vessels and two steamers bound to England that were known to be in the Baltic at the time of the gale. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

"Juan de Borbon," in a letter to the Times, says :—Sir,----I have read with the greatest atten tion the article which referred to my Manifesto to the Spaniards. lam thankful to you for the justice which it dispenses towards me, for the enlightened treatment of the question it exhibits, and for the frank and loyal manner with which you have esti mated my conduct ; and I rely upon your kindness to permit me to make a few observations. I disclaim, once for all, any intention of kindling a civil war in Spain. I believe firmly that the country is very far from occupying the position which it ought. Its progress is the effect of the advancement of the age in which we live, and of the efforts of a great people who desire to be rege nerated, in spite of those who oppress them ; for no one can repress the expansion of progressive ideas. The improvements in Spain are not what they ought to be; they are not what they would be if there existed in that country a liberal system, frankly accepted and faithfully observed. You will derive information on the liberty enjoyed in Spain from all the newspapers which are not in the pay of the Government, and from the 100,000 men who are compelled to be soldiers against their will ; of its credit from the Stock Exchanges of London and Amsterdam; of its toleration from the Jews, and from all the other foreigners who dissent from the Catholic religion. Of its prosperity you will be taught by its waste lands and the thousand enter prises which die for want of credit. To the efficacy of the colonial system the inhabitants of Cuba can testify, governed as they are by the laws of the Indies of the time of Philip IL ; and as to the good ness of the economical system, the oppressed con tributors can say a word about that. All political parties are preoccupied with the bad state of Spain. Except among the men in authority, the necessity of a change is in the conscience of every Spaniard. Any system would be preferable to the present one ; and if the reforms which the country requires are not made by the means of a legitimately constituted Government, they will, sooner or later, be brought about after a period of anarchy and through torrents of blood. My ambition is limited to the desire of contribu ting to the welfare of my country. For me the Crown possesses no other attraction. In my in fancy I was judged and expelled from my country ; against the decrees of every tribunal there is an appeal ; I do not promote revolution, I appeal to the Spanish people. If they, after hearing me, re ject me, my future privacy will not be less cheerful from the consciousness of having performed my duty. You believe that there is some contradiction be tween my legitimate rights, which y ou acknowledge, and the fact of my appealing to the people. That is not my opinion. Of every candidate qualifications are required. If, in order to be member of Parlia ment, General, President of a Republic, or merely elector even with the universal suffrage, some title is demanded, even if it be simply that of a citizen, I am of opinion that some qualification is also required of him who aspires to be King of the Spaniards. Napoleon 111., in soliciting the votes of the French people, did not 'forget—nor did the electors forget— his family antecedents, its glory, and its traditions ; those were his titles to present himself as a candi date. On the convenience of Italy and his per sonal position Victor Emmanuel has founded his claim to the sovereignty of that coun try. I base my title on the rights which I repre sent, and on the national requirements. If I do not receive a hearing, a revolution and its conse quences are imminent. It is from a sentiment of duty that I bring forward my pretensions and sub mit them to the people. I comply with my obliga tions and the dictates of my conscience, and I believe that I am consistent in my conduct. I may commit an error in my mode of proceeding, but I can assert that I do not carry my desires further than for the public good ; and I repeat that I am not guided by any other ambition, nor is it I who will promote a civil war.

The executive committee have had the pleasure of nomi nating William Astbury, Esq., and Newnham Winstanley, Esq., as their two auditors for the accounts and balance sheets, which will be presented at the annual meeting next December. The candidates for the two auditorships to be appointed by the members at the present quarterly meet ing, are the Rev. Mr. Goodchild, Mr. Harding, and Mr. Gower. The allotments of a first portion of the Roehampton estate, the Hertford estate, and the Camberwell houses on the 18th of July, and of the Felixstowe estate in Suffolk on the 28th of August, have been eminently successful. The sale of land for this year, on the society's estates gene rally, has been remarkably large. The executive committee have under consideration save ral properties in counties to which the society's operations have not yet been extended. The near approach of the annual meeing, when a detailed account of the proceedings of the past year will be submitted, readers it unnecessary to make any lengthened report on the present quarter. The executive committee have not only to congratulate the members on the highly successful termination of the eighth year, but also on the excellent commencement of the ninth year of the Conservative Land Society.

The terrible gale which visited the northern part of the United Kingdom on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday last, appears to have swept with equal fury the whole of the coast of the north of Europe, and the havoc amongst the shipping—especially in the Baltic, where the storm seems to have spent its full force—has been truly awful. As yet no full details have been received, bat the telegrams which came to hand yesterday from Lloyd's agents at Riga, Helsingborg, Skioe, Memel, Norden, and neighbouring ports, furnished a most fearful list cf disasters, there being upwards of 60 wrecks posted in the books during the day. The loss of life and property has been very great, and it is feared that the full extent of the mischief is yet to be learnt. 314 i 60i 1 281 41 i THE GAOL OF NEWGATE. The most extensive alterations are at present going on in the gaol of Newgate, with a view to fully carry ou t the separate system of confinement, and prevent the contamination that prevailed, owing to the indiscri m i nate of young and old offenders together. These alterations are now confined to the female side of the gaol, the - whole of the male side having been remodelled within the last few years, and the male prisoners being now confined in separate classes and cells, and having no means of contaminating each other before trial, or at any period during their sojourn in the prison. For a long time no alteration was made in the female side of the prison, which was merely divided into separate wards. The authorities of the prison, of course, took all the means in their power to classify the prisoners, and to prevent young wome n who were possibly charged with a first offence, and who had previously borne a good character, from being associated with prostitutes and old offenders; but still, under certain circumstances, it was impos sible to carry this out to the full extent, and the evil consequences of such an association were frequently brought under the notice of the authorities of the corporation of London, and the Rev. Mr. Davis, the ordinary, repeatedly urged the necessity of an altera tion being made, and at length these efforts were successful, and the corporation came to the resolu tion of expending a sum of £9,000 on improving the women's side of the gaol, and also making additional accommodation for the officers of the corporation and the public in the Sessions House. The whole of the female prisoners were removed to the City prison at Holloway, and the portion of the gaol that had been occupied by that class of prisoners was entirely pulled down, and in its stead there will be erected fresh ranges of cells to accommodate fifty prisoners, the whole of whom will have separate cells, as on the male side, and they will have no oppor tunity of communicating or conversing with each other, The average number of female prisoners con fined in the gaol, it appears, is 37 ; but in order that no difficulty might at any time arise from the prison being overcrowded, it was resolved to pro ' vide accommodation for fifty prisoners, the largest number that in all probability would ever be within the gaol at any period between one session and another. While the alterations are going on, the female prisoners, as above stated, are confined in Holloway prison, and when the session of the Central Criminal Court takes place they are brought backwards and forwards every day until their cases are disposed of. It is not expected that the whole of the alterations will be completed in much less than a twelvemonth from the present time, and it is then hoped that the old gaol of New gate—which was formerly the scene of many iniqui ties—will become quite a model prison. ,TRB SPANISH THRONE. REPRESENTATION OF .READING. Two more candidates appeared in the field yes terday to fill the vacancy created in the representa tion of the borough of Reading by the appointment of Mr. Francis Pigott to the Governorship of the Isle of Man ; and it appears that Mr. Sergean t Pigott will not, as was anticipated last week, have a quiet" walk over." One candidate Walter (brother of Mr. J. Walter, is Captain AiP. for •Berk shire), the other Mr. G. J. Shaw -Le _ fevre (nephew of Viscount Eversley). The fo rmer gentleman has ' informed the electors that he entertains the same political opinions as those held by his late father, and Mr. Lefevre issued a lengthened address, yes terday afternoon, in which he speaks of the political connex i on which ex isted in former years between his family and the b o rough, and; after criti cising the p roceedings of some of the constituency in holding a meeting and selecting a candid a t e as being hasty , h e says:- - " I may frankly s t ate that I am prepared to give my hearty support t o L or d Palmerston's Government. Comp r i s i ng, as it does, members of all branches of Liberals, it has supported at hom e and abroad the principles o f th e party as we ll a s the dignity of the country. I have faith in , the i r foreign policy, which recognises the principle of n on-interference with the internal affairs of other countries, and strives to preserve the general peace of Europe, at the same time giving the strong moral support and sympathy of this country to the movement which is now taking place for the regeneration of Italy. I believe them to be prepared to suggest and to adopt all practicable improvements, as well in Parliamentary franchise as in all our domestic institutions. I regard the de lay of these as not resting with the existing Ad ministration, but as the inevitable result of the equally balanced state of parties in the present Parliament. I abstain advisedly from stating in detail the course I should be prepared to adopt on each particular question of policy which is likely to arise in Parliament. I do not think I should obtain your good opinion by outbidding the pro fessions put forward by another candidate, and therefore limit myself to the general assurance that the great object of my Parliamentary life will be to promote reform, economy, and peace."

" The Ammergau Mystery, or Sacred Drama of 1860," is a clever account of the would-be religious cere mony which lately took place in the neighbour hood of Munich.

To our ideas of religion in the present day they seem almost blasphemous. Tom Brown leaves Oxford for the long vacation.

The public are not generally aware how much science owes to our trans atlantic neighbours for improvements in ma chinery now generally in use. English mechanism may improve upon the idea, but Brother Jonathan very often takes the lead and shows the way. With reference to the manufacture of nails, we give the following extract : " The forging of nails was till of late years a handicraft operation, and therefore belonged to a book of trades ra • ther than to a dictionary of arts. But several combina tions of machinery have been recently employed, under the protection of patents, for making these useful imple ments, with little or no aid of the human hand ; and these deserve to be noticed, on account both of their ingenuity and importance. " As nails are objects of prodigious consumptionin building their block-houses, the citizens of the United States very early turned their mechanical genius to goo d account in the construction of various machines ing them. So long since as the year 1810, itl Americans possessed a machine which performedch rapidity that cut ting and heading at one operation,forrsmathke it could turn out upwards of 100 nailswpeithsrtffirLinouttem. asTerhnuti: years ago,' says the Secretary of the _ then in obscurity, setts, ' some men, then unknown, d an s and, by a common began by cutting slices out of old t ho e oP , u o l i s s were e t o vice griping these pieces, head.ede of a hammer.

" To northern carpenters, it is well known that in almost all instan ces i t is unnecessary to bore a hole before driving a c u t na il ; all that is requisite is, to place the cutting edge of the nail across the grain of the wood ; it is also true, that cut nails will hold better in the wood. These qualities are, in some rough b u ildi ng works, worth 20 per cent. of the value of the article, which is equal to the whole expense of manufacturing. For sheathing and drawing, cut nails, are full as good as wrought nails ; only in one respect are the best wrought nails a little superior to cut Rails and that is where it is necessary they should be clenched. The manufacture of cut nails was born in our country, and has advanced, within its bosom, through all the various stages of infancy . to manhood ; and no doubt we shall soon be able, by receiving proper encouragement, to render them superior to wrought nails in every parti cular."

Robinson, Of the Training Col lege, York, furnishes some very sensible remarks on the neglect of English Literature in Schools in general. He maintains that it is the fashion in schools and colleges to seek fine composition and grand ideas among the writings of the Greeks and Romans to the prejudice of English authors, in the same way that the Scotch peer visits Switzerland in search of scenery, when he has as fine if not grander at home. There is much truth in his re marks, but we have no reason to complain with the instruction imparted by the schoolmasters of the present day. If we only look back some thirty years we will see that a long step has been made in the right direction, and we must have patience until time and common sense complete the neces saryary reform.

Some years ago considerable attention was ,ex cited by the case of Saleh Pasta, Governor of Varna. He caused to be removed to his harem the daughter of on() o f the chief men at Toulcha.. Some time elapsed before the father discovered what had become of his child. When he attempted to procure her release he was arrested, and his property confiscated. But Varna was then garrisoned by an English force, and the case was so notorious that our authorities are understood to have remonstrated. The re sult was that the dead body of the girl was found some days afterwards. An inquiry took place respecting Saleh Pasha's concern both in the abduction and in, the murder. He was removed from his post and sent to Constantinople to be formally tried, and the father was released. But we believe that we are perfectly correct in stating that Saleh Pasha was at once set at liberty, and has been since living in the capital, not having undergone even the semblance of a trial, and that th e fathr's property has been retained by the Government. Outrages of this description are extremely frequent in the rural districts of Europe, and are never punished. " It is not uncommon to quarter troops on houses only inhabited by female Christians. In these, as well as in other instances, seldom does a male relative, who interferes on their behalf, escape alive. " Forcible abduction is encouraged by the following means. In Albania the prestige which it confers leads to personal advancement in Government employment. In. Bulgaria it is facilitated by placing the relatives of a Chris tian girl who becomes a Mahometan on the same footing as Mahometans with respect to protection from fiscal oppres sion. In Monastir, and we believe elsewhere, a Turk who carries off a Christian girl and causes h er t o b ecome a Mahometan, is exempted from military service. " The conduct of the Ottoman authorities in this respect is most reprehensible. The theory is that, on any case of abduction being made known, the girl is to be placed under the care of the chief of the religious sect to which her parents belon ,, , at the place where they res id e , un til th e case is decided.. This done at large commercial ports where a European element compels the observance of some form of law and justice. In the interior another mode of pro cedure is adopted. Such cases are declared by the Govern ment of Constantinople to be religious and civil cases, not criminal ones. The girl is brought beforo the Medjlis and asked what her religion is. If she replies Mahometan, the case is of course at an end. If she declares herself a Chris tian, the result is the same. The Medj lie quotes the Hatti- Humayun of 1556. In this much-vaunted edict, which has everywhere and in every respect proved to be a ' delu sion, a mockery, and a snare, it is only provided that Christian evidence shall be received in commercial, correc tional, and criminal•cases. The Medjlis decides that the case before it is a civil question. It consequently refuses to hear the girl's statement or that of her relatives ; and un less a Mahometan comes forward to give evidence against his co-religionist in a matter which his creed regards as meritorious—an extremely rare occurrence—the Medjlis decides against the Christian plaintiff." ;age- Tent L the vent 1 the ven long ,has °my, 3d a rnor d in Rol- uri ate- era In Pa .~ all 1 100 100 100 100 al 1 all 91 1001 92 i 1011 2 93 } 1041 1. 231 41 000 32i 10 stock 25 stock stock stock stock stock 100 stock OUS. 34 1 li i 33} 4
