DULLNESS IN WALL-ST.

New YORK, Feb. 15.-The Times says:

and exaspersting. Think of it-less than
AZ 900 shares of stock were dealt n on the

the record; never has there been day in
twenty years when SO slim q business has
been done.

materially, and more than one conspicuous
house is getting ready to go out OF the busi-

mated discussion OF just one subject. the
prevailing unprecedented du.lness. There
are hundred theories TO explain the un-

even 10 this day it has not been tempted
back. The deal was fair. Wsll-st. could
have well afforded TO heed this San Fran
