very weak, without any spirit. Consider

the shorts covered freely round the room,
and there were indications OF rally. This

again took on weakness.
transactions were very large in the Vii
lard stocks, and g report came out that the
committee appointed to examine the Ore
gon and Northern Pacific books had been
refused access to them by
the officers of the compa-
MES, and with the report that Willard
refused to show up the sale of these stocks
was very pronounced. IL due course of
time the rumor was oontradioted, but
there was steady selling of long stock in
the Northern Pacific, and If is noticeable
that large part of it came from the Bel
mont interest. The large shorts took the
stock. There was slight rally during the
fore part of the last hour, and Northwest
ern appeared TO desire to go up, but with
free selling in New York Central, Union
Pacific and the Wizards the improve
ment was soon lost. The bank statement
