Trading was very quiet as compared with previous sessions recently. The matter of most widespread and immedi ate interest in Wall street is the rail road situatiorg Peace lias temporarily taken second place in the thoughts, of banket, broker and trader alike. The opening displayed a tendency to weak ness but there was good recovery in many cases, with particular firmness in the. copper group and some of the equip meat, munitions and war specialties.
