during the past two days than for some
weeks past, and the way in which the trunk

been very indicative that they have been
quietly bought during the dull period they
have experienced, and that they are likely %
become more conspicuous hereafter. The

of the bi-monthly account on Friday. have
both been detrimental to any fresh specula.

the result must be- During the last hour an.
other effort was made to break prices, hoping
