clined to 961 for prompt, and 961 for time. They,
however, again rallied, and were subsequently done

The foreign stock market was rather active to-day,
and considerable dealings, chiefly, however, on specu-

value. Buenos Ayres touched 55 for account; Egos-
der, 41; Peruvian Deferred, 25. Mexican opened
