Wall street, 10:10 a. m.-—The stock
market was remarkably quiet at the
opening by comparison with yester-
day’s excltement.. Changes were re-
stricted within a point. with the ex-
ception of Sugar. which opened off
that much but immediately recoured
it. Four thousand. five-hundred shares
of Leather sold at 15% to 15. compared
with 14% last night. There was a fair
sprinkling of gains. but the majority of
stocks were factionaily lower under
the influence of depresSion in foreign
suick markets.
Wall street, ii a. m.-—The bear fac-
tion renewed their attack on Tennes-
sce Coal and'Metropolitan Street Rall-
was. Long stock came out in large
amounts as stop loss-orders were
reached. and Metropolitan broke 5%
and Tennessee Coal 5%. Support was
evident in Leather and some of the
Steel issues. New York Air Brake sold
3 up four points and Hocking Valley and
Linseed preferred 2% points each.
Shortly before 1! o'clock there was a
general raid on the specialties. Sugar
fell Off 2%. Brooklyn Transit 2 and a
variety of stocks 1 a 1%. The Granger:
sold lower than in yesterday's demor-
alizatlon. Before 11 o‘clock the mar-
ket rallied. Tennessee Coal. Sugar and
Metropolitan recovered 2 to 4 points.
Wall street. noon—The rebound in
values rushed substantial proportions.
many shares ruling at well above yes-
terday's close. Sugar was the lender.
rising to 138% on heavy buying for
both accounts. Trading became almost
lifeless at noon. but prices held firm.
Bonds lacked support. but there was
no conspicuous loss.
Wall street. 1 p. m.—-Thc rally car-
ried the Grangcrs. Trunk Lines and
leading Western and Southern Rall-
rond stocks up a point or over. The
leading specialties shared in the rally.
Wall street. 2 p. m.~l’roiit-tnking in
the active specialties checked the rise
for a time and Leather. Sugar and
lirolilyn Transit, lost a point each. A
good dcmnnd then dcvcloped for the

quently spread to the industrinls. Top
