Recors--Decline In Zee Gee stock.
Bad Bank stssement Expected.

New York. November 49, There were weak
points In tho stock market today, but the UNI
DERIVING elements OF strength promised at one
time TO overcome the obstacles and carry
prices uniformly TO level. Apprehcnsions Of
weak showing In tomorrow's bank statement
turned the tide toward the side OF reaction in
the late dealings. Tho level OF prices was IN
most cases carried SHARPLY below last night
and tho net gains remaining were very much
re iuced from the extreme advances OF the
day.
The most influential factor in causing weak
ness was the obvious liquidation going on In
..crlhcrh Pacific, which is attributed to one
OF the leading financial interests in the Prop
oIty. The absorption OF the stock was attrib-
uted to the leading contenjIng interests in the
property. This process OF trsnsfercnce is sig
bifcont OF the iisturd said to exist iii the
property. Rumofs ire rife also OF the bfLak-
ins up OF the agreements which have been 30

road world. The effect WAS manifest, not only

Is an accurate. reflection Of the decline in the
anthracite trade. ether stocks affected by that
trade iailying itissympaths.
notwithstanding these elements OF weakness,
the market showed good recuperativc powers.
Burlington recovered II of it's quarterly divi-
deild before the late relapse in the grangers.
Denver aud rio Grahdc preferred also showed
continued strength. There were conspicuous
advances In a number Of trunk lines, iiicl,id-
ing baltimore and Ohio. and there was a
light late movement IN 6roup OF Southwest
ern railroads. The passing OF the Chicago and
Alton story resulted In losses of to points
in Kansas City, Pittsbuig and Cult Chicago
and Alton ana Lake Erie and Western pre-
fcrred.
The expectation OF an unfavorabic bank
statement Is based on the known activity OF
the week in the money market, which must
have largely Increased The reserve require
