Excludes any participation on the part Of

rack partially from the sentimental in
huences Of the time and partially from the
fact that while temperatures have been
lowered In the belt there is yet an absence
OF killing frost over the greatest producing
territory. The apathy that prevailed in
speculative circles was sufficient 10 hold
the bears in restraint, however, and
nothing Of Importance was accomplished
There was a rumor 10 the effect TINT Mr..
Neilrs announcement had been made and
In so far as 1t related TO supply surpassed

not have the effect Of shaking the trade
from of its feet since the average operator

estimators Of the opposite school It's in.
huence was more peroeptible IN the for

side Of tho water.
The news from the belt was very much
mixed. There were many reports that the

would wish and n summary Of conditions
