New York, Dec. 12.-There was an
other opening smash in the prices of
stocks today, the trouble again CEN
tering in Amalgamated Copper. The
heavy unloading of this stock carried
it down Az @5 points. Steel sold
down to the extreme of 112. On run
ming sales the market fiuctuated une-
venly after the opening, then went
lower The extreme weakness of 'he
market came as surprise. There was
no news to account for the renewed
fright, but the movement of prices
was convincing evidence of the tim
idity felt by the security holders.
The sentiment changed later to
the extent that the brokers advised
their clients to buy standard stocks.
The situation was reversed in so far
that early sellers were later buyers.
The business which in the first hour
attained tremendous proportions with
the tape from five 10 ten minutes be-
hind the market had a fall about mid
day. During the noon hour the mar
ket showed brief periods of dullness,
but activity was soon resumed and
by one O'Clock the heavy selling move
ment was on again.
1t became evident during the af
ternoon that the buying demand for
stocks was practically paralyzed and
beyond the occasional demand to Gov
er short contracts by the traders on
the bear side of the market the throw
ing over of stocks again became pre-
cipitate, causing rapid declines again
in prices.
