the special attention given to January,
has been almost lifeless.
Closing Saturday at 1920, January

The greatest jumps were from 1880 to
1900, from 1925 to 1850, thence to 12.75.
At the latter point a New York concern
representing big New England interests,
commenced to sell right and left, and a
little later a Greek house also sold. This
stopped the rise and the market sagged
