vanced y to rs per cent, with Burlington
and Quincy in the lead. The bears in
these stocks ind il hard work to make
any Roadway for the reason that up to
date representatives of the western lines
in this city have been unable to confirm
the reported damage TO cereals. There
were some wide changes in the special

iteration of the old reports of another
reorganization of the property with heavy
assessments all around. Speculation
