no real foundation for the distressing rumorS
which have recently been circulated There was
a considerable increase in the Volume OF tradlhS'

for that reason the strength to-day was little more
significant than the weakness yesterday. As

statement has been made SO many times that the
lack of official confirmation naturally eXcltes q
suspicion that 1t is made merely for effect on the
ejaculation in products but the evident certainty
