 Aside from the depressing reports in the steel trade. indicating a still further falling off of new business, there were additional price reductions, and the day passed without develop ments of significance.
 Money was somewhat easier and the decline in speculation was re- flected in call money, of which there vas an oversupply. Bonds moved uncertainty with some inactive lines falling off severely. Total sales repre- scnted a par value of $2,050,000.
