Considered Good Buy.

As nothing transpired yesterday to
clear up the tangled political situation in
the House and Senate, the uncertainty
and nervousness which has marked the
stock market for the past week will be
projected over into tomorrow's session.
Despite the action of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee In reporting out the
McLemore resolution with a recommen-
dalton that 1t be tabled, it is by no means
certain that the Presidents friends can
table the measure without a long fight.
The failure of either side to develop a
decisive victory in the fighting around
Verdun also contributed to the uncer-
tainty.
W. b. Hibbs & Co. yesterday gave out
the following New York stock letter from
Logan e Bryan, summarizing yesterday s
session:
THE session appeared to be devoted in
large part to evening up operations. A
portion of the room element which COM
mitted itself to the long side yesterday
was inclined to liquidate and this pro-
duced price concessions. Considering the
amount of long stocks which has been
liquidated during the past week or ten
days the stock list strikes US as present
ing a good tone, and while of course
nervousness and irregularity will prob
ably be the order OF things which inter
national politics are such factor, still
