one-half of this business was confined to Erie

done in Missouri Pacific LIST consOls and some
of the Missouri, Kansas Texas issues, and
during the afternoon in Nickel Plate stocks,
which became very weak, selling down to II

T1s4. Erie Eds were at one time as low as
1917, but rallied in the afternoon and closed
with a loss of 4 per cent. at 40. The general
impression in the street is that some of the
heavy holders of these bonds have been the
principal sellers. There wee no sales of West

ter thou into the JOY of thy Lord" So
may his grace enable us to do. Amen.
