New York. Oct. 21.-Despite the dis

Railroad Labor Board and the Brother

While disappointed the market COM

adjustment of the railroad situation.
1t was pointed out that while the first
conference failed. this did not mean
that the door of settlement was closed.
On the contrary, a number Of other
conferences were looked for, notwith-
standing the seeming stubborn attitude
of the conteSting forces. Just how the
present deadlock was to be broken, no
one was willing to venture an opinion,
but the rank and file in the market
community maintained the same opin-
ion voiced all during the week, and that

As naturally would be expected, the
strike situation overshadowed all other
considerations. For that reason the
further strengthening of the reserve
ratio of the Federal Reserve systems
was nil a. market feature. Neither
the continued easy money conditions
cut much figure. But this was all
entirely logical when the professional
caliber of the market was taken into
lull in the trading in the general list
consideration. Taking advantage Of lull
in the trading in the general list, a
number Of the lesser pools trotted out
their specialties, which were marked up
while the more representative shares
marked time. The only exceptions in
the latter were some of the more closely
held oil stocks, and these were made
the leading vehicles of speculation.
