New YORK stock, Monry and Grain
Market Review

BY direct private wirs to Louis S. Col
well, manager OF Price, Mccormick &
Co. q tranoh Office. No. el6 Middle street
Portland, Me
New York, May II notwithstanding
the violent declines In today's stock
market, 1t Is virtually impossible to fur
nish any adequate explanation or the
course Of prices. Liquidation was evil
ient throughout the entire ilst and sais,
was OF course supplemented by Hgses-
sivs short selling. The close was = nush
above the worst of the day. ard In fact,
many stocks closed at the very bottom,
American Tobacco was a Sensational
feature Of the market In resrs,t OF activi-
ty and decline, but except for the gene
rally unfavorabie constructions which
has been placed ON the company's snnu-
al report there was nothing TO account
for decline. What was called inside buy
ing Was noted In the dealings In Amsri-
can Tobacco, but on tbs other hand the
selling, which was OF llsd scattering com.
pletely swamped these buying orders.
The Steel stocks opensd strong, the
advance seeming to be a continuation OF
their tendency Of yesterday, Bat tsey,
too, subsequently developed pronounced
weakness. The movements in Sugar
were particularly srratio and the stock
also lost ground, but 10 was better sup
ported than ths other industrials. All
OF the local traction group showed losses
at the close Of businesI which were nc
mora accounted for than the declines
elsewhere In the market That Is in the
way Of detinits news relatively speaking
the losses In the railway list were as
great as those In the indussrials and
fancy stocks. The declines averaged over
one point ard were fairly uniform.
Missouri Pacific and baltimore s. Ohio
Issues were the most actively dealt and
It was said thai the pool In the latter was
l!quidatiDg. In Missouri Pacific the
pool continued to make feint Of buy
ing, but the scattering liquidation was
too much for them. As noted. there was
virtually nothing new bsaiing on the
general market or particular stocks,
which would account for the days severe
losses. Money was in abundant supply
all day and from current Indications the
bsnk statement tomorrow will not make
. particularly unfRvorable showing.
