and turned the general current Of prices

the Metropolitans, Amalga1nated, Reading
and Union Pacific advanced sharp frac-

the top range.
Realizing sales in st. Paul and Union
Pacific forced them down sharply, and
other grain carriers sold off in sympa-

Smelling Consolidated Gas and the Met

Pacific was advanced to the highest again
and the general railroad list became
frmer.
