ance rates prohibitive and no sea room

were unwilling to do business on grain
documents at the moment
The market was higher in the early

s'IrIoor" Sentiment.

1t seems curious to talk at this time
about floor" sentiment, and yet that Is
the way sentiment in Stock Exchange
circles Is described The floor OF the ex-
change is still a meeting place for brok-
ers who wish TO gossip and exchange
Views as TO the progress being made to-
ward return to normal conditions. In
brokerage houses yesterday 1t was re-
ported that a much more cheerful feel
ing prevailed on tho floor SO sur
prising has been tho progress made In
settling a highly complicated and awk-
ward situation that the street has already
lost its first feeling OF alarm and Is be-
ginning to fret a little over the neces-
sity OF rigid adherence to a policy Of
dleness. There Is much discussion of
the probable date to be set for the re-
opening OF the exchange by those who
are not intimately acquainted with the
real situation. Much has been done to-
ward return to a normal state of affairs,
hut great deal OF detail still remains
to be adjusted. So far neither the time
nor the preparations for a resumption OF
business have been arranged In fact the
questions OF when tho exchange Will re-
open and Of the methods to be employed
to deal with contingencies have not even
been discussed by the stock Exchange
authorities who have the present cxtraor-
binary situation In charge.
