ment in that market. Foreign exchange flnctu'
ated with gold, and sold to . moderate extent.
Securities exhibited only moderate degree Of
animation, with few transactions. Only one sale
ofstocks was reported. State consos were q shade
lower, while city premium bonds were stronger.
We heard of large transactions in old city cOneOl-
