STOCK LIST SHOWS
 GENERAL DECLINE Sugar Dropped Three and 0ne-
 Quarter Points PROFIT TAKING IN ORDER Brooklyn Tapid Transit Advanced Five and a Quarter Points, But Lost Considerable - This Gain
 Later in the Day
PROFIT TAKING IN ORDER

New York, October 25.-Aceording to the phrase of the professional traders in stocks a reaction in prices was theoretically due today. The reaction was strenuously con- tested by the bull element, but their ef- forts proved futile and prices generally show losses on the day. A sudden and characteristic break in sugar in the final hour had not a little to do with the de- clsive course of the market downward. Sugar suffered from very heavy liquidation after its recent sharp rise, which was not accounted for by any news. Todays break was equally without foundation except the fact of the previous rise and the resulting realizat The drop in sugar extended to 3A points.
 The weakness was not extreme at other points in the list, profit taking having pro- ceeded in an orderly and quiet way during the greater part of the day without seri- GUS effect on the prices. In the late deal- ings manipulation by bears was in evil dence, stocks making wide declines on light transactions. The theory which profession al operators offer to explain a reaction like that of today is that stocks a result of a steady and prolonged advance, had pass ed from strong and organized control into the hands of weak and scattered buyers outside, who do not command large sources and who lack great skill in specula- tive methods to protect their holdings. The anxiety to sell of this class of holders on any sign of a reaction becomes a drag a bull market always in due process of time. Todays disposition to sell had no accompanying favorable news to explain it, unless the fragrant lack of confirmation of many of the recent rumors which have been used to advance stocks could be called bad news This class of rumors centered about Brooklyn Transit today and incud- ed rumors of change of control to Metro poltan Street Railway and allegations of a newly acquired interest by the Pennsy- vania Railroad in the property. The stock was pushed up extreme 5A on these rumors, but fell back 214 in the late selling. In the railroad list Southern Pacific was the conspicuous feature with extreme advance of nearly points and a net gain of 1A.
 The bond market was not very active today, but prices were firmly held. Total sales par value, $2,5OO,OOO. United State 5s advanced A in the bid price the last call.
