recovered level of prices establish
ed yesterday became early manifest in
to-day's stock market. After a period
of dullness and hesitating fluctuations
prices began to recede and the fall be-
came precipitate again before the end
of the day. Liquidation which had been
withheld with the idea that better
prices might be obtained came out
again in large volume when the down
ward course was established and ag-
gravated the weakness of the market.
The force Of the selling pressure car
ried prices of leading speculative issue
far lower than the lowest prices touch
ed last week. This had the result Of
uncovering stop loss orders and ex-
hausting margins left untouched in
last weeks decline and led to a free
throwing over to speculative holdings.
Developments in the money market
had an important bearing on the re-
newal of liquidation. Loang We're call
ed and the call money rate ran up
sharply during the afternoon to 10 per
cent. Some liquidation Of speculative
holdings was forced at this rate and
there appeared to be discrimination ex-
ercised against some securities for coli
lateral in loans. No new cause deyel~

stock market beyond the progress of
the working out Of the adjustment to
the conditions fixed by the San Fran
cisco losses. Additional heavy engage

an corresponding Withdrawals made
from the sub-treasury by the banks

shipments thus becoming Immediately
available in bank reserves. The move
ment Of currency to San Francisco also
continued but fell to comparatively
small proportions.
The renewal of liquidation Of securi-
did not occasion surprise, however.
Yesterdays recovery in stocks was
generally regarded as an identical
| movement such as usually occurred in
| the progress of extensive liquidation
when profits on the short side became
so inviting as to attract buying to COW
er. The holiday In London left the
market without its usual impulse from
that source. The comparative quiet
ness Of May day in Paris was a mega
lively favorable influence owing to the
widespread anxiety which has been felt
over possible political disturbances as
an incident Of the day. The selling
movement became as violent during the
firal hour as at any time last week and
the market took ON an appearance of
Decentralization. Declines from last

quite numerous. Great Northern pfd.
