NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-The reaction
ary tendency in stocks gained force
today and was Of more influence on
speculative sentiment than yesterday.
A Monday reaction is viewed with
equanimity during the course of a rise
in stocks, for reasons we'll understood,
but there are less plausible explana-
tions FOR the carrying over of a selling
movement into the second bushes day
of the week.
The days operations disclosed well
organized bear party in the trading
and their attacks on prices and the
success that met them were testimony
to the vulnerable condition In which
the speculative situation had fallen
The farIing back of prices was not at
tended with unfavorable news develop
ments and was clearly due to techni-
cal causes
For one thing, the newcomers in the
market on the side of the public were
disappointed at having bought yester-
day morning at the top level, only to
see them decline. There was in conse-
auence a significant decrease in the out
side demand for stocks and an inclina-
ton by the outsiders to sell out hold
ings.
The failure of confirmation by official
announcement of any of the numerous
reports recently circulated begot a
spirit of timidity among buyers. The
shaky condition of prices yesterday
had the effect of inducing the placing
of stop-loss orders to a large extent
at prices below the current level as a
precautionary measure. In the recent
feverish condition Of the market brok-
ers have been inclined to insist on this
measure of precaution on the part of
customers
Recent favorites in the speculation
were most vulnerable and New York
Central, Union Pacific, Southern Pa
cific and Pennsylvania consequently
suffered most severely in the days
movement.
In the period of recovery special
stocks were pushed upward, appar-
emily with the purpose of supporting
the market and extending the rally.
Amalgamated Copper, the New York
public utilities, the Eries and num-
ber of specialties, including the high
grade industrials, made such advances
from time to time.
Northern Securities appeal may have
been an influence in the realizing which
was An progress, as the expected de-
cision in that case has been made the
basis for such long continued move
ment in the various stocks affected that
further results from the announce
ment are hardly to be expected. Yes
terday's advance in United States Steel
came to pause.
The days record clearing house bal
ances and exchanges, only slightly be-
low the highest record, witnessed the
heavy requirements of the Southern
Pacific bond payment made yesterday.
With this operation completed, easier
money conditions are to be expected,
but this did not serve to check the
speculative liquidation in stocks.
The feeble rally aggravated the ten
dency to throw over stocks and the
pressure increased, making low prices
for the day in the final dealings and a
decidedly weak closing. New York
Centrals loss ran to nearly five points
and the other active speculative lead
ers were down from two to three
points.
Bonds were easy. Total sales, par
value. $4,720,OO0.
United States bonds were all un-
changed on call.
