The Vigorous Rally After the Wild Market
of Last Thursday Led Observers to Sc

the Present Weakness Probably Due

New York, Dee. 12.-There was

Steel sold down an extreme ~ on run

evenly after the opening and then
went lower. The London prices for
Americans before the opening here
were generally higher and gave no hint
of the storm hanging over this market.
There were some vigorous efforts
made to support the market but by
ii o'clock there was another bad break.
The extreme weakness of the market
came as general surprise TO all OBJ
servers in the financial district. The
vigorous rally of the latter part of
last week encouraged the Idea that the
decentralization was over for the pres

count for the renewed fright, but the
movement of prices was convincing ev-

holders, The renewal of sensational
proclamations through advertising
mediums from the same source that
preceded the successful raid of
last week had a notable effect on
sentiment. The selling was gene

that department was responsible for
the liquidation.

stocks also were very heavy. Re-
ports from the floor suggested the
theory that the selling came from in
terests other than those which caused
the early decline. During the noon
hour the market showed brief periods
of extreme dullness, but activity was
resumed and by one o'clock the heavy
selling movement was again on.
1t became evident during the after
noon that the buying demand for stocks
was practically paralyzed beyond the
occasional demand to cover short con-
