news OF market Importance was made
public during the session, except the
notice that the cables were to be
turned back to private owners by the
government This raised the hope
that other properties would be re-

helped public service stocks, including
the Consolidated Gas OF New York
and Peoples Gas OF Chicago.
United States Steel seemed TO be
on a dead center as thousands OF
traders will do nothing in it until the

many rumors OF what will be done.
