losses and gaining a point or so. Around
noon the ticker tape became nstless.
Railway issues were prominent at high
or levels. especially the coalers on reports
Of huge soft and hard coal traffic to tide
water for export. The industrials kept
within a narrow price range. Motor
stocks advanced and strictly war is
sues were less active with reasonable
fluctuations.
According 10 one expert the present
compare lively dull sessions are forerun-
neres of a bigger and broader movement
at better prices than in August and July.
