Declines were largely extended after

reached about a point elsewhere. but
the whole list rose smartly later.
Market More Staple.
Speculative conditions today made |or

during the early hours there was none
of the extraordinary fluctuations such as
have occurred. Variations of 1 to points
were registered in stocks. which COM
monty move widely, but these conditions
We're accomplished without the nervous
excitement which has frequently attended
trading recently.
Traders sold stocks for time in the
belief that yesterdays bulge was too
rapid and that a reaction would naturally
follow. After the leaders had been damned
down 1 to 21a points. there was gradual
rally which ultimately raised prices to
above yesterdays close. Reading recov-
cred more than points. Bonds were easy.
