"On the whole, recent gains in sew
eral important lines have been well
sustained and in certain instances ex-
tended, though commercial conditions
disclose rather sharp Irregularities.
Expansion in some directions contrasts
with continued lassitude in other quar-
ters, while some markets are strong

these naturally result in conflicting
reports on the general situation, but
theX.are not surprising in view of the
wide qualifications of business. So
far as the principal statistical baro-
meters are concerned most of these
point upward and afford tangible
basis for encouragement Despite the
lower commodity prices now current,

Marking up of the call money rate

weekly mercantile reviews reported
some Irregularities in business but
