The leaders in this group especially the
tobaccos, were under rather severe press
ure and showed sharp declines. Later there
was some improvement on the strength on
the showing made by several ralroaas IN
.Julv earnings Burlington was
the leader with an increase in surplus al
ter charges OF over $4,000. The Central OF
| Georgia Railroad formed a marked eXcep-
ton with a decline in net earnings OF near
/ " S25 900. compared with July of last year.
| Lackawanna was marked up on the set
tlement OF the dispute with the engineers

There was slight hardening in rail
roads, but the industrials We're attacked
/ again in the final dealings. There was no
| apparert resumption of operations by the
! organized pools recently active. The

parations for the regular monthly settle
/ ments. But the New York banks continue
! to lose cash to the sub-treasury on ac-
! count of customs and Internal revenue
/ payments, and there is a balance of ship
/ ments to the interior over receipts. New

points continues at a discount. Exchange
