NEW YORK, Dec. 19-The concerted
measures Of the most powerful financial
interests Of the country proved effective
today In checking the progress towards
panic and collapse in the start. Sup
porting orders were distributed all
through the list at the opening. and prices
were advanced in an effort to restore con-
f1dence. But liquidation continued on a
very heavy scale, and drove prices lower
again after the opening.
The advance in the Bank Of Germany s
official discount rate from to I per cent,
and the hardening Of the private discount
rate in London, with reports from that
center of further engagements Of gold
from New York for shipment this week,
helped to unsettle confidence. Prices eo-
bed and flowed between reaction and re-
covery many times before the flood OF
liquidation had been finally absorbed.
and the selling brought to a standstill.
The decision of the banks to use all
their resources to accommodate the de-
mand for loans, as the secretary OF the
treasury IS largely TO increase funds with
depository banks, and as the course OF
funds from interior centers to New York,
in response to the acute needs developed
yesterday, all tended to reinsurance,
The interval since yesterday, in itself,
helped to quiet somewhat the hysterical
apprehension VI yCSlOiOoyJ >~AA~
tions at no time today approached panic
When the tide Of liquidation was seen to
be stemmed by the abundant resources
afforded prices set about violent re-
covery, under urgent demand from the
short interest and active bidding up by
the traders and insiders.
The sharp advances excited some rea!lz-
ing, but the undertone of the market
continued strong up to the close Whch
was at net gains ranging from two to
twelve points for the principal active
stock.
investment buying Of bonds was in evi-
dence. and this market generally respond

CHICAGO, Dec 19.-The failure of the
Liverpool market to respond to the ad-
vance here yesterday weakened wheat
today, May closing 7sQ1c lower. Corn
closed 9s612c and oats 1sqAc depressed.
Provisions were lower, with hogs and
grain, May pork closing 1212c, May lard
&c and May ribs 5Q712c under yesterday.
The Liverpool market opened only
trlfe Gp, declining later, and this was
taken by local traders as an indication
that the people most concerned look less
seriously on the war and political situa-
alton Of England in its effect on the grain
market than did most Of the pit yester-
day, when clamorOus demand from all
quarters sent the price up nearly &c. The
opening today was under puts, May 20
Bc down from yesterdays close, at 70A@

up the previous session were sellers and
the market eased off early to 701sc, hold
ing steady for some time at the decline.

bic of 1927 Geo bu encouraged some buy
ing May rising TO 7012c. This was lost
on profit taking, and May closed Hqlc

markets and a liberal supply of hogs

was depressed considerably by profit-tak-
ing. The shipping and investment de-
mand was good, probably saving the
