THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS

Evidence OF renewed bear pressure against
the manipulated industrials and a professional
attack upon the anthracite coal stocks were the
leading factors in yesterdays narrow securi-
ties market. Because Of bear operations in the
groups named traders endeavored to establish
lower level throughout the list. but with a
few unimportant exceptions prices refused to
Yield TO any noteworthy extent Traders were
not successful In inducing liquidation. The fo-
egn political situation. the local election uncer-
tainty. and reports that the Spanish Peace Com
mission would abandon further conferences with
the American Commission failed to shake con-
fdence in the intrinsic worth Of American Sc
curities. And even in the much-abused anthra-
cite stocks me selling was purely professional.
Whether or not holders OF the coal stocks are
justified In retaining their possessions in the
face Of demoralized coal trade is question
which must be settled by the individual judg-
ment after a close scrutiny Of the conditions
governing the anthracite situation. The Della
ware and Hudson company took step forward
in abandoning It's proftess canal. but the stock
was sold down yesterday by traders. who
thought the action OF the company an indica-
ton OF financial weakness In addition to this
the poor earnings reported by the Reading and
Jersey Central companies helped TO depress the
coal stockA
OF the Industrials the Federal Steel securities
were strong exceptions to the general weakness
while among railroad stocks Manhattan and
local traction issues presented decided strength
Manhattan was bid up the idea that the di-
rectors' meeting would be followed by some an
nouncement regarding the companys alleged
plans for change in motive power. but as
usual the directors said that nothing had been
accomplished. The standard railway shares
showed insignificant net losses The London
Stock Exchange and Paris Bourse were closed
owing TO holiday Foreign Influences" how
ever. were harped upon by traders, who last
week were we'll satisfied that local prices must
advance. despite the most serious kind Of Euro
