cY, with commissions added OF 1-32 to

SToCKs-The market during the
morning was feverish, but in the main
strong, Now York Central continued
the feature, and fuctu0ted frequently
between 1854 and 1921. The market
was sustained by the expectation that
a bill will be introduced in the legisla-
dend on the so per cent certificates. In
the afternoon Central advanced once
more to l64L, the market closing dull
and unsettled, except st. Paul, which
was strong.
