generally heavy in the forenoon. while In
the afternoon strength appeared among
those stocks which had been most de-
pressed early. The Changers initiated the
Improvement coincident with the weak
ness in wheat. London was a seller of
the Internadonals. particularly of Louis

sistance which caused many OF the trad
Ing element TO reverse their tactics. Among
the generally inactive shares very mate
rial advances appeared in Minneapolis and
st. Louis, Detroit, Gas, Canadian Pacific
and Illinois Central. Anaconda Mining

Meeting 1t with the proposed consolida-
ton. Sugar, Glucose and Metropolitan

vailed at practically unchanged quota

distributed to-day, and prices were in the
main higher. Total sales, 50, 6S5, 600
