more or less congestion in single stocks.
In the latter respect there Is some i'm

One-sidedness in the market. The tagging

inundated the spectators in stocks yes

Further remarks of Mr.. Hartman were
offered for consideration and the specu-
lattye contingent seemed to derive more
sustenance from them than from Yester-
days iTstaiment. Probably this outgiv-
