tocd Encourages the Bulls.

There is a growing impression In Wall
street circles that President Cleveland
will veto the Bland Seigniorage bill and
this gives the bulls a good deal of cour-
age. They have the market we'll in
hand, and not encountering much long
stock on the way up, are disposed to
pursue vigorous tactics to compel the
shorts to cover.
1t Is regarded as a favorable sign that
the industrials no longer monopolize at
tention. and that the solid divdend-pay-
ers like the Nanderbilts are in demand
at improving figures. veto of the
Bland bill will undoubtedly impart con-
fidence to capitalists abroad, and may
lead to a revival of the inquiry for
American Investments.
