The bullish manipulative support was withdrawn Monday afternoon, however and Tuesdays session was characterized by general inactivity from the brokers at the lower price. It is rather the consensus of opinion that the drop will now be as rapid as was the rise in values, providing, of course, that there is no renewal of the bull ish activity which was so marked in the early part of this week. The market opened on Wednesday firm 44hc; wont up to lTc on Monday and receded to 45c at the closing
