Dull Wall Street Day Hinted by Political Echoes and Erie Doubts
A bleak trading session in New York shows a market mired in dullness with sparse activity and apathetic clerks. Traders debate the Erie plan’s fate, while politics loom as a factor shaping sentiment and investment optimism amid cautious notes from brokers and investors.
Erie Plans Exchange Favorable to Bond Holders
The Erie plan to issue new notes backed by collateral aims to improve bond holder positions. J P Morgan & Co leads the syndicate offering par for par exchange, with collateral valued at least 12.34 million dollars and expected to secure the new notes. The market closed near the prior level as Erie stocks remained dull.

Copper shares firmed on better metals, Erie and Pacific stocks drew attention, bar silver steady, money at 2 1/4 percent. Paris and Berlin bourses were heavy to firm with light trading.
