During the last hour profit taking through other brokers appeared, which was quickly absorbed No new feature appeared in the situation. A reaction after the sharp decline of last week was to be expected in natural course of markets, but the extent of the. advance was greater than anticipated Spinners were not buyers during the day

Hentz and ''one of the original bulls,'' probably Weld. were the largest sellers. The local crowd were against the market and held it for awhile, but were run in before the day was over.
 The bulls were favored in the late trading by report that Clement Curtis would be out with a very bullish report tomorrow.
 Spot advies were also bullish, holders. refusing to sell on the decline
