ket opened tolerably firm, In sympathy
with a slight advance in prices at Lon

moderate buying orders from that

labor troubles, which are being mag
nified by the bears as much as possible
for speculative effect, led to RAPID
change in the tone Of the market.

fairly sharp pressure to sell for both long
and short accounts The downward move.
m-nt was accelerated by a sudden drop
of 3 points in Distillers. to q, on the
announcement that the Gottschalk case
decision on the question of rebates has
been decided against the company. and
also by reports from Chicago that Attor-
rav-CaneraI Maloney would render his
decision in the quo warranto matter, ana
that this would be adverse to the trust.

After the close of the Exchange, It was
learned that Attorney-General Maloney )
