sertiOns Denied.

A decline of Brooklyn Rapid Transit
stock in the market yesterday to 3eH, anew
low record led to many reports in Wall
Street. Among them were those that
director prominent in the company had
decided to dispose of his holdings for good
and that there had been heavy liquidation
on the part of 4 group of holders. On the
authority of prominent interest Of the
company these reports were denied, and
il was said that the decline was due simply
10 the fact that there were more sellers
than buyers.
This same interest said that there WAS
no intrinsic reason for the weakness Of the
stock and added that the increase in earn
inns OF the company for the two months
and half since the close of the fiscal year
on June 30 had been about $3.50 900, az con-
pared with an increase of something over
$3.50 900 for the whole of last year. Before
