Yesterdays market showed the effect
of reaction from the big prices of the
two or three days before. There had been
a steady advance and the people who
were only trading for a small profit took
their one or two points. Added TO this
there was undoubtedly the remnant of
the old feeling OF the last few weeks that
prices are high enough at present. The
people who feel this way about the mar
ket will only be willing to embark on new
ventures on the bun side when peace is
actually assured. The movement of yes
terdday, however, should not in any way
be considered backward step or an in
dication of lack OF confidence on the part
of the great maiority OF the street. The
indications are that from this time on
there will be a movement upward only
controlled by the probability of early
peace negotiations. There will be small
declines frequently. as there are in every
rising market. no matter how sure its

Nearly everything in the market had
a drop yesterday. The one strong and
marked exception was the granger group.
Every member of this group advanced
with fair steadiness all day and closed
with a gain at 3 o'clock. The earnings
of the grangers were not large compara-
lively during July, but this is not a just
method of judging the future prospects
of the roads.
July opened low and was a phenomenal
month on the grain carrying roads and
it would have been remarkable indeed if
all of them had shown large gains this
year. 1t is the large probability, how
ever, that the business of this group
during the coming season will be excel
lent. The crop reports are fine and full
of promise. 1t should be remembered
too, that every one of them has a sur
plus over its regular dividends for the
