NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Recessions
caused by the pessimism Of the pre-
(ceding session were largely overcome
today, traders taking renewed courage
from the failure Of various unlavorable
rumors to materialize. Dealings pro-
ceeded in a tentative manner, how
ever. with a complete absence OF the
excitement and wild fluctuations
which characterized operations OF the
early part Of the month.
The cautious attitude assumed by
tho professional element was again
traceable to admonitions from banking
interests and the increasing discrim.
ination exercised against loans for
speculative purposes. This was jus.
Tilted by the maintenance OF stiff rates
for call money, based on forecasts in.
dicating a further loss Of reserves by
local institutions.
