Burlington and Quincy and Rock Island showed
no diminution. and except for the animation in
Reading and Northwestern, and to smaller
degree in Union Pacific and Louisville and
Nashville. there was no feature outside of them
in the entire list. First prices were. as COM

slightly higher. though Burlington was 4 per
cent and Lackawana was off q. The last
named stock recovered Is per cent. and some
others, especially Northwestern, Union Pacific.
and New England showed an advancing tend
ency, but the weakness in Burlington, Atchison
and Rock Island carried the list off and slight
losses were generally sustained in the early
trading. Burlington lost Is, Rock Island q
and AtchisOn q, but late in the hour recovery
ensued, which brought them all back to the

the fluctuations were insignificant. the market
