Tho San Francisco S,eek R1pGst A-
presses its convictions in relation to the
immediate future OF the stock market
in the following hopeial Language.
The fear and despondency which were
prominent factors IN the stock market
FOR three yeare have almost entirely
Disappeared. There has been n clean
ing up and a cleaning out. The market
has been attended with . series Of dis
asters and. in their onward course. the
raves Of destruction have swallowed
many dealers. But the past. practical
ly speaking. is dead. Its hopes and
tcsx. ns troubles NRA calculations,
have nothing to do With the present.
These are cold facts, aud though we say
IL With keen sympathy for tho unfortu-
nate, the sooner the dealers mako up
their minds 10 the new order Of things
the new dispensation-so to speak, the
better will it be for them. Fortunes
will be lost and won, as Of old. but the
general market bids fair TO be more
favorable to dealers than it has been
before for three years. Tho prospects
Of the mines and the actions Of the
bearish operators fully warrant the be-
lief that the crisis is over and that,
from this time forward, We are to have
an active If not excited market, with
the chances in fsvor of a big rise.

Of the company, and have not the heart

"plastcred" with attachments, and that
