hung like a pail over thin historic
Scotch pile. What this secret is only
three-or perhaps four-people in
the world know. these being the lord

steward of his estate. For this secret

President Berry of this city has gone

meet their maturing obligations.
After taking this paper, the bank had
rediscounted about $4,000 worth of the

from the opening price, but a subse-

houses were about the best buyers.
Early selling was due to reports of
engagement Of million No. ] northern

cline a good demand from commission
houses and shorts started the market

higher all day There was but little
disposition on the part of any one to
sell and there was fair scattered de-
mand. There was very little change in
the general situation. Elevator peo-
