FRACTIONS RANGE LOWER
UNDER SELLING PRESSURE.
UNITED RAILWAYS, PRE-.
FERRED, is OFF A POINT.
Other Issues in the Local List Are
Steady With a Scattered
Demand.

Statements given out by President Muir
ray Carleton and directors of the st. Louis
Transit Company failed to have the expect
ed bullish effect IN the stock of that cor
poration in yesterdays market. The mar
iet seemed to be overstocked with selling
orders and efforts TO work an advance We're
unavailing, despite the assertion that the
issue OF new refunding bonds would result
IN a great saving OF interest on the out
standing obligations OF the syndicate. The
stock opened we'll at s2I .37i2, a gain of soc a
share over Wednesdays closing price, hut
rapidly declined to SCI. There was a Slight
rally TO sZa.l2ta. but the last sale was at 81.
with S26.Sf3 bid for more. There were no
transactions in the stock at the afternoon
session: The best bid was s26. 62l.. with offers
at WI 10, the net loss for the day on the
basis of the closing bid being soc a share.
The bulk OF the sales was at S27.
United Railways preferred was sharply on
the downturn, with a net decline of 81 a
share and a range from 1926 to sIs.5o.
The 4 per cent bonds opened steady at
S5.2S. but eased off to SIS at the afternoon
session.
Interest in other issues was scattered, with
trading mainly in small lots. Colonial Trust
was active at SiS7 and st. Louis Union
trust had good support with early sales at
1855 and s35. bid for more.
Central Coal and Coke common was IN
good demand at s6isIls. Lighting issues
were In fair demand and steady.

SLUMP IN SHIPBUILDING BONDS.
Another cause to which the days de-

The activity of the bear faction was ap-

Neither OF these rumors was substand-

out any very clear reason. although the
theories current for the decline took a wide
range over the whole financial field on the
part Of the boardroom traders, who had the

The simple explanation seems to be that
these professional operators who nave been
buying and bidding. up stocks to a moderate
extent during the week find themselves with
little company. and feel that they have
limits OF their courage in speculative COM
mitments.
The process Of selling to take profits finds
as narrow a participation as that during
the advance. Prices consequently recede
easily and in pretty close proportion to the
advance on the same volume of dealings.
