day and on the whole the markets were
irregular. Many issues were ex dividend
The home railway group was firm. Min
mum prices will be removed on all do
nestle prior charge stocks next Monday
leaving only mixed quotations for Indian
and a few home government descriptions
Although not active. the American de-
partment was firmer Canadian Pactics
displayed strength and Grand Trunks were
steadier. South American rails lacked
stability.
The gilt-edged section hesitated. Allied
bonds were firm, but Spanish were weak
following Paris.
Further Dutch purchases caused addi-
tion buoyancy in Peruvians. Sentiment
in Mines was cheerful
There was spurt in Peninsular and
Oriental Navigation on rumors that the
shares would be split.
