FINANCE AND TRADE
The Opening in Stocks Was
4. Rather Weak.
LACK OF OFFERIN GS
CHECKED THE DECLINE AND
PRICES HARDENED.
An Advance in United States Steel
Strengthened the Whole List
Materially.

NEW YORK. October 6.-Prices declined
quite uniformly a small fraction at the
opening in Wall street today. There was
some special pressure against Brooklyn
Transit which carried 1t down about a
point. Wabash preferred and Missouri Pa
cific were the only exceptions to the de-
preston. and hardened shade.
A further small decline in prices occurred
before the selling ceased. Lack Of offerings
rather than any evidence Of demand seemed
to be the factor in checking the downward
movement.
Prices stiffened somewhat later under the
lead of Brooklyn Transit and United States
Steel which recovered their losses. Hardly
any of the railroad stocks f1uctuated more
than slight fraction and the market was
practically at a standstill at IL o'clock.
Operators were inclined to await the ac-
ton of the United States Steel dividend.
Some added pressure developed against
the hard and soft coal carriers. Baltimore
and Ohio's decline of * marked the maxi
mum of the movement Kansas City and
Southern preferred fell rs. and Rock Island
preferred, Metropolitan Street Railway and
st. Louis and San Francisco second pre-
ferred, about a point. Transactions were
insignificant. Bonds were extremely dull
and about steady.
Inc unoertOne OF the market became
steader, but little effort was made to rally
prices. st. Paul and some of the special
ties ruled a good fraction above the lowest,
but the general price level was little
changed
An active demand for United States Steel
preferred carried it 1as over last night. The
sympathetic response carried the list gen.
orally fraction over last night. Tennes-
see Coal gained point. Minneapolis. st.
Paul and Sault Ste. Marie 3A and United
States Express 81. The demand subsidized
when prices dropped again.
