esting the trading, was simply theme OF

| The above list embraces the highest fig
l ures obtained, the sliding scale going over
a long range.
The pressure in money is growing lighter.
and stocks, as we'll as other obligations pre-
viOusly rendered for sale to realize cash, are
now held i'll a trmer grasp. There is little
trading, however. in stocks, unless an order
which requires filling be excepted, and the
latter only comes whenever there is antici-
lated decided improvement more than
upon the face Of things. The orders which
lately came to buy Slaughterhouse seem to
be all satisfied, and $40 to $40 % is about
the thing for this. In Ammonia, as well as
in Pneumatic. in Land and Loan and Saw
ings Bank, Mississippi amt Mexican Gulf,
Calcasieu and Sulphur Mining Com
pany, we hear of no changes what
ever. Brokers yesterday only alluded
to these stocks more, it seemed, to find out
what they would be sold at than with the
object Of purchase, however distant. A
broker offered to sell one hundred shares
Lottery stock at $G6 bid, but the sale was
not consummated probably because 500 i'll
hard money was not, just then, available.
All the inquiries for the stock of Mississippi
Valley Navigation Company have subsidized.
and the same is offered freely at 50 -,
where, a few days ago. s. % was the limit
1t is street rumor that some mysterious
legal adjustment will take place in court, by
which the mandamus on the executive to
sign for fifty thousand dollars of the stock
will be carried out, but this light looks very
much like moonshine, AS the appeal is re
ported on its way thither.
The action Of the school directors in paw
in. only the last month tirst-that is. be
ginning at Omega and going to Alpha
has upset the calculations OF those who
give school teachers paper the preference
and who take in remorseless discounts. 1t
Is whispered. or rather con ectured that
other changes of a similar nature will be
made concerning the salaries of employees
who can i'll afford that strictly modern
luxury. "a close shave In reference to
city securities, the late movement of the
citizens does not appear as affecting their
value. The general sentiment is mo mat
ter who's in or out, these must be paid"
In State warrants a visible appreciation
of late has caused better feeling, as the
cant phrase has it, and quoted from 20 to
60 cents. The sales are accomplished with
ease, for the purpose OF building up an in
vestment. The State, like a true pelican
must take care of Ler young. and feed
these her offspring on tat interest.
The only sale at the Board OF Brokers
was 1920 gold at l095s,
The Oftt RINGS and bids were. as fellows.
