The continued apathy was the feature
Of the stock market. The market was I'M
der pressure of professional bears all day.
The volume of business was the lightest
that has been recorded on any full bust
ness day in the last two weeks The
movement was irregular. and in most in
stances narrow. the market displaying
tendency to rally whenever pressure was
temporarily removed. The initial prices
were regular and the changes fractional.
Bear aggression, however soon became
evident. The downward movement was
succeeded by a rally in sympathy with
jump in Consolidated Gas on variety of
rumors none of which were confirmed.
Announcement of further reduction in
the prices of refined sugar caused only a
fractional decline in sugar stock

Ferry and found the local authorities
there kecniy alive 20 the situation and
prompt and efficient IN caring for the

now that could be done.
The question OF quarantine was
brought up by the representatives OF
the few towns still maintaining such
measures. DIR. Probst thought all quar-
antines should be lifted at once, as the
local authorities were providing all the
protection necessary. DR.. Hoover
thought the new developments In Mar.
