NEW YORK, Oe. 20.-The dull and
hesitating tone of the speculation IN
stocks was unrelieved today. Prices
did not move much with any decision
and the sentiment was confused by
the contrary movements going on at
the same time. The immediate CON
dition OF the local money market was
not such as tc force liquidation IN
that the banks were not actually call
ing loans. Beyond the Immediately
easier tone of the money market,
however. the money outlook was re-
garded as unassuring. IL was taken
for granted that tomorrow would see
a further rise in the Bank of England
