AS this increase of business took

AS was the case on Tuesday the mar

marked in unsteadiness. Indeed the
market was AT times excited and In
the afternoon was rather feverish.
Enter More Boldly.
The professional element which had
been contesting the rise without much
benefit. entered more boldly into con-
tracts for the fall and before the close
