that the coming change in the admins-
tration of the treasury department was
the occasion for misgivngs on the part
OF the powerful financial groups, for rea-
sons which supplied ground for numer-
Gus Variat tions In the current rumors
The pressure against Pennsylvania
was traceable to the intmidations of an
other note issue, the announcement OF
which was made formally during the day.
The Importance of the operation was
modified by the fact that for the total
issue OF 900 all burt $l0,OO0000 is de-
signed for the extension of notes already
outstanding, the $50 100000 so provided for
maturing November l. An additional
mitigating effect was the accompanying
explanation that this would complete the
necessary financing for the company this
year and would obviate the offering In
that time of any of the new stock and
bonds which the stockholders Will be
asked to authorize at the annual meeting.
The report of the terms of the issue
caused a violent rebound In Pennsylvania
and added to the recovery elsewhere
which followed the statement from Presl-
dent Morton of the Equitable company
The recovery was held fairly well to
the closing, but considerable losses re-
mained at some points of the list.

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-The selling Of
stocks today was of n volume and IN a
manner to seem portentous and was the
occasion of an unusually large number Of
rumors. Many OF these proved un-
founded and none was actually verified
during the session. The situation offered
the alternatives Of supposng these ru-
mors were set aloat for a sinister pur-
pose to force prices lower In the interest
sGnted the blind cropping after the real
causes of the selling.
The most persistent rumor had to do
with the affairs OF the Equitable Life
Assurance society, and they became so
specific and so confident In their form
led to issue n formal denial of them. Re
Ccvery set In after the issuance of this
disclaimer. Previous to that the impress
sion was conveyed that some of the heavy
selling in the market was from the treas
ury of the insurance company, with varl-
GUS accOmpaniments in the way or com
mentary on the collateral effects to be
assumed.
The coming resumption of the interstate
commerce commission Inquiry into the
Hartman railroad combinations and the
information alleged to have been pre-
pared by the head of the system for use
In his examination were said to be or
formidable import to the market. The
special weakness of Union Pacific was
due to this impression.
Coming activity in the field of investi-
cation of departments of the state gov
ernment at Albany was another favorite
theme which was harped upon In the

field by the medium of the state banking
department
