After a brisk first hour, trading

timent. however. seemed 70 be quite
optimistic despite the gloom which
continued to surround the power
and light equities. Some OF these Is
sue ever displayed mild resistance,
although their rallying powers were
feeble.
Commodities were without any
particular trend. Rye got up q cent
or so 3 bushel at Chicago, but the
other cereals we're only slightly inn
proved. Cotton was q bit flrmer,
and rubber futures sagged. Bonds
were quiet and steady, with u. 8.

upward.

previous losses. ]. G. Penney was up

President Roosevelt's Tennessee
