THERE'S not the slightest foundation fer the charge made
by obscure and unknown individual, against Of
the leading bill brokers of Wall street. relative to pass

markets stand their own legs the domestic de-
mand for consumption being sufficient to sustain prices
It the present point 1t is impression that prices
for breadstus will advance instead Of recsdng; that
the receipts from tho interior will not BE- much
