NEW YORK. Nov. 2O.-The New
York Evening Suns financial review
today says:
Although the course OF prices m
today's short session of the stock
market was irregular, there was an
entire absence of that hysterical SELL
ing which characterized the FRIDAY
trading. Values were depressed ma.
terially in the middle of the first
hour. but the resistance was more Or
less in evidence in the second half
of the session, and at intervals it
was transformed into real strength,
So far as the general list was con.
cerned, gains were held to the clos
ing.
