Yesterday the - showed net decline OF
10 points and the convertibes n net de-

no bid for the notes at any price. No
body understood at the time what pur-
pose was behind Mr.. Gould's mind when
he saved" the Missouri Pacific from re-
organization. and. moreover. actually put
up money to do so. II was n mystery
except to those who claimed that the in
evltable we .sostDoned in order to pro-

few held this Wow because II was hardly
believed that the state OF public senti-
