NEW YORK, Oct. 2O.-The situation

in, without any general and striking
movement of prices in either direc-

the least active and with very little

trading in United States Steel COM

lively narrow range OF prices and the
usual sudden advances Of several

There was. however. quite unwonted
activity in great variety of the less
familiar industrial shares with persis-

with no great f1uctuation of prices. In
this respect, the days market was IN

1t generally is held that the legis.

of the natural objections to any body

for the sole purpose of combating

such body could be used by the enc

Whether the proposal, now in the

an effort, however, to have the militia
relieved from strike duty, leaving the
state soldiers to be trained for strict
military duty only.
