In- stend a fear hung over the market and prevented either activity or @ rise in prices. ‘This fear s the Northern BSe- curities case. f a If the decision ts adverse it in de- | 4 ciared in Wall street that there will not be a single bushel of grain less to move, = ton less of ore nor « gingle pas- wenger less to carry.
