NEW YORK, May 16.--Today's stock
market gave signs of falling into the
dull and uncertain state which is the
sharp break as that which followed the
San Francisco property losses. The
reason is that the recovery results from
the declines having been over extended
rather than from any radical change In
the conditions that caused the decline.
A variety of explanations was found
for the heavy tone developed in the
market today but the fact is that much
has been accomplished toward covering
up the contracts on the short side of
the market which were put out during
the period of acute depression of senti-
ment.
The existence of the short interest
and it's potential requirements has made
q useful medium for the aggressive pro-
fessional operations for advancing
prices
With these two forces approaching
balance again the market is free to re-
spond to the conviction that the con-
ditions which caused the break in prices
were not fictitious but real.
The element of uncertainty and re-
strcted capital resources to meet the
the supply was brought into prominence
today by the announcement of the
Pennsylvania note issue for 1000 900
The fact in itself that resort to this
form of financing was considered by the
most powerful railroad corporation in
the country was of adverse effect on
sentiment. The terms of the issue also
were unfavorably regarded.
The falling off in activity of the mar
ket was ascribed in part to disinclina-
tion to enter upon stock market COM
mitments until after the adjournment of
congress.
Something was also made of the
Standard Oil dividend declaration. which
was at the same rate as the correspond
ing period of last year, but less than
for the preceding quarter of this year.
Bearish traders attempted to couple
this with yesterdays reduction in the
dividend of a small subsidiary company
of the Amaigamated Copper company to
form an interference of sentiment
against rise in the market on the
part of the powerful financial group in
terested in these companies. The mar
ket had the advantage of a consider
able rise before the decline set in and
a late rally. so that the net changes are
small as a rule. The closing was firm.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
