NEW YORK, September 23-There were
a number of interesting features to the
dealings In tOday's stock market, although
for the most part even the more extensive
movements could be attributed to little
more than technical trading considerations.
In the instance of Amalgamated Cop
per. q more explicit reason for the weak
ness In that stock was furnished by a re-
newed decline in the prices fo- the metal
In London. which was accompanied by Il
corresponding shrinkage in the local quo
tattons These circumstances naturally ex-
cited fresh concern with regard to the
forthcoming dividend on Anaconda Mining
and both the last named stock and Anal
gamated Copper broke quite sharply.
On the other hand, II would not be SO
easy to assign direct and novel explana-
tions for the even more sereve decline In
American Smelling and for the pronounced
weakness shown by the United States Steel
shares and other industrial issues.
Thus also the apparent climax approach
ing In the affairs of the InterbOrough-Met-
rupolltan Company might be named In
connection with the dealings in those is
sues. although they did not suffer badly

BULLS AND BEARS

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. September 23.-In view of
the quite pronounced rise which occurred
in the stock market last week. leading
operators would not be surprised and. in
Tact. are rather looking for. a slight re-
action in the market temporarily. 1t is
held that technical conditions alone would
warrant some recession In prices. Some of
the most experienced market observers.
however. are of the opinion that the gem
eral tendency of quotations will be toward
higher levels. They appreciate the fact
that monetary conditions are not such as
to offer encouragement for big bull spec
alation, but on the other hand they see
no good reason for expecting anything
more than moderate reaction.
A good deal of interest Is attached to
the developments which will probably oc-
cur this week in the local traction situa-
ton The possibility of a receivership In
connection with at least one Of the Inter-
borough Metropolitan subsidiary companies.
it Is believed may tend to restrict opera
tons the bull side for the moment,
though the consenus of opinion is that the
stock market has pretty we'll discounted
developments from that quarter. There Is
also some apprehension that the testimony
which will be adduced from the Standa ID
OH investigation may be OF an unpleasant
character and serve to restrain bullish en-
thusasn. Both Of these matters, however
are looked upon as likely to be mere tenn
porary checks at the most to the improve
ment in progress in security values.
One of the most encouraging features Of
the situation pertains to the developments
in the bond market. AS is well known,
for the last few days there ias been a
larger inquiry for hgh-clase investment
bonds than has been found before In many
weeks. This is taken as meaning that the
public at large is regaining confidence and
Is now inclined to permanently invest some
of its surplus funds in Wall street securi-
ties.
A good deal Of comment has been caused
by the large amount of borrowed stocks
which have been returned of late Some
operators contend that that indicates a
big reduction Of the short interest. but
others. with much show of reason. main
tain that these borrowed stocks returned
simply represent the covering of a techni
caly short line put out long ago by men
prominent in the financial world, who, for
one reason or another were induced to sell
large amount of investment holdings
For reasons we'll understood such men
do not care to deliver their own stocks until
long after their liquidation has been COM
pleted and consequently resort to the loan
market to conceal their operations.

The Recession Explained.

One more point raised to account for the
recession in the market at large was a re-
port that in his forthcoming western trip
the President would utilize the opportuni-
ties offered to present fresh and in en-
phaslZed form exposition of his distin-
guished Individual policies. 1t would not be
easy To say how this idea got afioat but II
was stIl embraced in the subjects talked
about during the day.
The decline in copper metal in London
naturally led to pronounced weakness in
the copper stocks upon the stock exchange

Railway List Weak.

The railway list was generally weak also
throughout the larger part of the business
session with the active stocks showing
declines ranging from one TO two points
and over. but, so far as the dealings In
that department were concerned, there was
little OF nothing aside from purely me-
chanIcdl market circumstances to be
elected.
one feature of the days dealings which
was probably influential in the market at
large was the sudden and extensive re-
action in the quotations for the new city
An per cent bonds 1t will be recalled that
the rise in those issues last week was a
factor of weight in the general improve
ment scored then, notably in the bond de-
partmenJ
There was 4 large falling away in the
dealings In bonds today, compared with
Friday 5 transactions. and the tone exhib-
tied was irregular. There was naturally
little to be elected in connection with the
reaction in the city bonds aside, perhaps
from the natural willingness of last weeks
fortunate purchasers to realize profits Such
was the explanation commonly advanced
with regard TO the course of those securi-
Ties. and II IL were correct statement of
