where they would have been at o'clock Saturday
had the market remained open until that hour.
Later there was q sharp rally of from 1 to per
cent and then followed feyerishness and Irregular
tv. with a closing that left prices neither at the
lowest nor at the highest of the day, but generally
lower than those of Saturday night. there were no
disturbing causes at work to depress prices and no
minors which affected the speculation. But there
are now two parties in the field. and the large pro-
fessional operators generally are arrayed on tho
"bearr side, as opposed to the public which re-
Gently purchased stocks at the high figures Added

stocks in liquidation of the late speculation, either
to save the remaining profits because of lack OF
additional margins
