time. but after the price for sellers had
reached s7lsc there was recovery. though
without an effort. 1t fell to $3.50 again
after going to S8lsc. The next recovery
was for the better. Inside of an hour the
price went to o bid at sec. and In the mean
time held quite steady between S8l5c and
$3.50. Then some sales were made at % u
0S9c, when another break at 10 O'Clock put
the price back TO sSl9c. Near the close
there was bulge that helped the situa-
ton considerably, as it started the market
toward reaction. The price OF May was
