satisfaction OF the professional traders
that there was nothing in the market.
Their tentative operations very gen
4 orally ceased after that, and the mar
ket lapsed into stagnation more pro-
foundl THAI anything that has been
witnessed before this summer.
In the current discussion in the finan-
ciai' district much attention is given
to the alternative OF wage reductions
OF rate advances which will be forced

their earning power. Additional re
ports of May net earnings made fur
tler exhibit of this shrinkage In the
Canadian Pacific. the Reading and the
Southern RAILWAY.
n In the case Of the last named the
i 31.19S.440 decrease In gross earnings
was exceeded by the cut in operating
expenses by s276e3, which therefore
went to a gain in net earnings over
May. 1907 The report of the success
