rsaid IN consequences TO railroad stocks. which
were concerned in most Of last weeks rumors.
There was q diversion Of interest TO the list

stimulated last week. A number OF the minor
Nauderbiits were IN this category and showed
the effect Of the failure OF confirmation OF

which circulated last week To-days substi-
