stocks. at times, were weak, though the frst

lied to 6sx, and closed at 5sh, while Western
Union at the same time dropped y cent. to 7OIl,

TN. In the final hour New Jersey Central be-
came conspicuous for its sudden rise from 71x
to 74,t, but II as quickly reacted TO 134 and an
seller 90. The occasion Of the rally was an at
tempt on the part OF the bears to cover. The
