of the selling movement early in the
week. which sent quotations in many
instances to new low figures, was fol.
lowed by pronounced change in the
aspect Of the stock market. The de.
mand increased largely and liquidation

settling features Of the long decline
was suspended. Prices advanced sharp

trading increased on the rise. Toward
the close Of the week the upturn was
checked and at some points reactionary
tendencies again appeared, but losses
