The Presidential veto OF the Imitation bill was
succeeded by q material decline In the gold
premium In view or which the merchandise mar
kets were unsettled and values in many instances
rendered nominal Most commodities were ad
versely affected, but In some the speculative move

dent expectation that the Innation bill would
receive the sanction Of the President mad acquired
sucn Roadway and Strength that but slight decline
was experienced. Nevertheless, speculation re-
celved decided check, and forward sales were
invariably on lower basis. Values shat had In
many cases been carried up materially ON the
simple belief Of q larger discrepancy between the
currency and gold were rendered merely nominal and
though the decline was but slight the reaction
generally regarded as hardly set In yet and further
decline was looked for. But the other hand many
commodities remained Quiet and comparatively steady
