and selling was very cautious, while covering of
shorts was INDUCED IN to marked extent, con-
sidering the limitations of the market, The
general list remained within the narrowest
limits, and the stocks among the usually active
list which fluctuated over the range Of more

Railroad bonds showed the same dizziness and
steadiness which has marked the dealings
throughout the week, and very limited bust
ness continues with only slight changes.
Government bonds-Dun and steady.
State bonds-Entirely neglected.
