AGAIN NEAR A PANIC
Prices Demoralized and New
Low Levels Made.
RECOVERY IN LAST HALF HOUR
Leaders Down from i to 2 Points at
the Opening and Drop Several
More in First Hour of Trading
Selling Orders Accommodating over
sunday Responsible.

New York, Aug. decentralization
prevailed IN the department Of the Lon
don market to-day before the opening OF
business here. but while severe declines
were suffered in ell the trading stocks
during the course OF business on the New
York Stock Exchange. the trading was
az no time entirely demorahzed, and
considering the volume Of selling and the
fact that the prices dropped 20 a level
well below that Of the March panic,
there was a notable absence Of the pan
icky feeling which accompanied the
break nearly four months ago.
The opening showed declines all through
the list running in most OF the active
leaders from l TO points and increasing
within the first half hour Of trading until
they amounted 10 3 or 1 points in many
prominent issues. During this period the
volume of transactions was enormous,
sales being made so rapidly that the
ticker was unable TO record them prompt
". the quotations received in the brok-
erage houses being for this reason quite
different from those being made on the
floor of the exchange at the same time.
Many Selling Orders.
The early decline was due in large
measure TO the accumulation OF selling
orders over Sunday from holders Of stocks
whose margins had run low, or who had
become alarmed over the situation, and
dn some measures to liquidation for for
eign account. but neither Of these fac
tors or both combined, we're responsible
for the break 10 anything like the same
extent ss the aggressive operations of
those who for some time had been en-
gaged in conducting a campaign against
values and who were anxious TO make as
low a level as possible from which 10
start covering
Toward the end of the first hour the
market rallied on buying, which in some
quarters was regarded as the placing Of
supporting orders by large interests, al
though there was no evidence whatever
that II represented anything more than
the covering of shorts and purchases of
bargain hunters. In the early afternoon
prices again gave way TO new low levels
from which. however. there was a re-
covsry IN the last half hour that seemed
10 be more genuine than almost any
other witnessed in the market for many
days past
One Of the most serious of the days de-
clines was a break in InterboTO- Metro
politan ~ per cent bonds, which. after
opening at s., sold down 70 %, and closed
at a rally Of only ~ points from the low

At Cape Breton there are immense
colleries being worked under the
ocean. These submarine mines cover
a thousand acres, and are being in
creased steadily. The mines are en-
tered at the shore, and the operators
follow the vein beneath the water for
more than a mile. 1t might be ex-
pected that the weight of the water
would force it's way into the mine.
The bed of the ocean is as tight as
cement cistern. A sort of f1reclay
lines the submarine roof of the mine,
and the sediment above is held in
place and packed down by the water
pressure until there is not a crevice
nor a drop of water from overhead.
