the better grade of stocks which has been
IN evidence through the week continued
today and apparently the holdings of sub
stantial interests have been largely in
creased. Prices rose easily when any
marked demand appeared, there being al
most no pressure of any of the spec11la-

was ascribed largely to the approach of

The slowing down i'm business extended
to the bond department, but there was
still good demand for first class issues.

With continued ease in the money market
the demand for bonds doubtless would
be sustained. Maturing loans were re-
flewed on the terms on which they We're
placed few months ago and many of
the larger institutions are being forced
