BUT LIGHT TRADING
ON LOCAL EXCHANGE
Indisposition of Investors to
Do Anything-They Seem
Satisfied to Hold Stocks.

Local securities were just about as
dull, relatively, as the New York list.
The attendance of brokers and specta-
tors was light, and the records on the
sales books even lighter. Around the
banks there was the same tale, with
everywhere a growl against the limited
demand Tor money. A showing OF the
banks today would indicate very
heavy increase in deposits and decrease
in loans. For some reason or other,
everyone is indisposed to do business
in securities and the session was ex-
actIy on the order of "a n1id-AuguSt
meeting. 1t is coming little too carry
this year, and win probably disappear
when the business worH wakes up the
morning after the trust decisions nave
been handed down. ,...,,,
A matter of $50 shares of washington

NO LIFE IN THE
NEW YORK MARKET
Wall Street Waiting lmpa-
tiently for Trust Decisions
to Be Handed Down.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-It was case
NJ tho same kind of dullness, only
uttle, more dense, on Wall Street.
Everyone now admits that relief cannot
be expected until the trust decisions
are handed down, and a further delay
ofter the reassembIing of the Supreme
court. Monday, April 3, would be yet
another keen disappointment to the
Street. Good, bad, or Indifferent, the
market wants the matter settled, and
will not be satisfied with delay. The
great ease of the money markets. not
only here but all over the country, indi-
cate two things very plainly-hrst, the
Stacking of general business: second. the
fact that brokers are not carrying
stocks. The usual speculative bulls are
out of the trade, and will stay out until
Tuesday, April 4, and longer unless the
matter of trust cases is eliminated
The strong insiders or financial inter
ests carrying stocks have acquired them
al prices materially lower than the pres
ent figures, and can AFFORD to take the
chances.
