MARKET POUNDED
down BY BEARS,
Continued Decline in New York
Stocks Establishes Several New
Low Records in Prices.
HEAVY SALES FROM THE WEST.
United States Steel Common Loses
Two Points and Closes at
% With 10000 Shares
Taken.

New York, July 21.-Bear attacks. coupled
with further forced liquidation. resulted in
a new low level for number of securities
in to-days stock market.
Declines ranged from Ia points to 5. while
some OF the better grade stocks showed
losses of point or more.
Railway shares of the better class were
moderately firm. but in little demand. and
there was no evidence of bargain buying
in these issues.
The attack on prices began at the open
ing and was continued at more or less regu-
lar intervals throughout the day. In fact.
lowest prices for some issues came almost
at the close.
The United States Steel shares were most
severely pounded. with net losses Of q. and
37s in the common and preferred, respect
lively.
Sales OF these stocks aggregated over 1885,
900 shares. over $4,000 shares of common
changing hands. Trading in the steel stocks
comprised considerably more than one
fifth of the days business. Steel common
closed at % a low-record figure, while the
preferred stock touched 20.
Besides the steel issues, the lowest prices
ever recorded were scored by Tennessee
coal ana iron, SOiOTauO uel ana iron, Ike
public Iron and Steel preferred. United
States Realty and Virginia. Carolina Chem
ical.
In the railway group there were new low
records in Rock Island common and pre-
ferred. Kansas and Texas preferred. Chi
cago Terminal. Three Cs. Colorado and
Southern issues. Lake Erie and Western
preferred, Brooklyn Rapid Transit. Metro
politan Street Railway, Pacific Coast and
Peoria and Eastern.
There was the usual large crop of ru-
mors, but nothing definite could be learned.
At some of the banks which have close
Wall street relations. it was said that a
number of loans had been called.
Much of to-day's selling was for out-of-
town account. The West was again very
heavy seller, the gossips declared that a
prominent st. Louis interest had been forced
to sell out a line of 10000 shares.
The day was not without some news of a
favorable character. Erie directors in
creased the rate of dividend on the first
preferred to a per cent basis, and the
quarterly report of the Tennessee Coal
Company showed a surplus increase of over
s5O00oO. with an increase of almost 5000 600
for the half year. In spite of this the
stock was among the weakest in the list.
The steady decline in the steel stocks
created great uneasiness.
