Financial.

NEW YORK, N. ", May 25.--Trsding at the
Stock Exchange is largely Of professional charac
ter. Today the room-traders and the leading

st. Paul and the light movement OF coin were dis

houses were without orders for outside account
made 1t easy for the bears 10 bring about lower
range of values. London houses did nothing, 1t
being holiday.

that the Butler bond bill will not get through the
