indicated pressure upon New York
funds from that center.

are running large at this time, but Gus
toms collections in themselves take
large amount Of money out of the
market every day.

fiscal year which has been in the
course of reduction for many months
Fluctuation tendency of the stock
market continued up to the closing
which was irregular.
