FINANCIAL NEWS

Lewis H. Tappan and company in their
weekly stock letter say: The bear party
who TO all appearances has had the mar
ket under Their control for som etime Is
undoubtedly one OF the strongest that
has started a market movement for a
long while.
While there has been a great amount
OF liauidation going on there unauestion-
ably has been a greater amount OF short
selling, the combination OF the two pro-
ducfng a momentum In the market which
is hard to stop.
News relative TO the market has been
of a bearish nature, but have not out

range OF prices which has been witnessed
this week.
Very much as the bull market OF last
summer reached higher prices than con-
ditions warranted under the influence
OF party OF manipuletors. so at the
present time the movement has been
carried TO the other extreme. undoubted-
ly by the same interests producing
prices much under those which represent
actual values: and while lower prices
may take place under the momentum OF
short selling OF a quick drive, we think

very much overdone and the investor
who takes advantage OF such an oppor-

the investment at no distant date.

ringtons were visiting with a family who
