Fears OF One Pull

LITTLE TRADING.

yesterday on the general fears felt
through the firm money rmors The

Snd a half per cent, AMI the belief
that government bond ssue is i'm
pending, did duty in pulling stocks
downward
There was less trading in stocks and
bonds than has been the case cor many
days, the total sales of stocks being
but $50, 143, and of bonds $3,054 600.
There is every indication of certain
prominent interests withdrawing from
the market in the hopes of getting back
stocks eheaper-not in the expectation
of any great break in prices by any
means. Every argument exists for a
turn on the short side. 1t is morally
certain that the large demand for new
capital in the last few months in tindn-
ciering industrial combinations and
manipulating extensive stock deals,
has affected the money market tempo
rarily, in spite of all the bankers may
claim.
So that the tumble in yesterdays

WAS not altogether unexpected Quincy

witness redoubled activity and higher

gossip. All the coppers suffered with

An instance of the difficulty expert
enced by trustees of large estates and
corporations to find investment for
their funds is shown by a recent re-
mark made by President Tuttie of the
Boston and Maine. He says that a
trustee of a large estate, being ap-
preached for the sale of large amount
OF Eastern Railroad stock of New
Hampshire, refused absolutely to sell
as he would be at loss to find en-
ployment for the cash received. The
trustee also stated that he had 1925, 900

invest. but knew of nothing in gilt edge
