outside demand

rose a point only to fall back again.
Amalgamated Copper attracted a large fox
lowing by reason of the continued reports
Of substantial Improvement in the cop
per metal trades.
The fertilizer stocks were exceptionally
heavy, Virginia Carolina Chemical, Amer
lean Agricultural Chemical and American
Cotton Oil all falling back apparently on
account OF the belief that the terms OF the
settlement OF the potash dispute with Ger
man interests were not as favorable as
had been hoped for. 1t became known to-
DAY that the first OF the financing projects
