BULLS AND BEARS


Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. October 19.-Opinions on
the stock market are a good deal mixed.
but the majority Of operators still hold tc
the view that further liquidation on a
considerable scale is likely to be encoun-
tered before the situation rights itself. II
is beginning to be appreciated that the
ramifications Of the Heinze episode may
be more far-reaching than was at first
supposed, and it Is believed that 1t will be
some time before this matter and others
directly or indirectly contained with 1t
will be fully removed as market factors.
Il
There are evidences that the leading
financial interests have come to the con-
clusion that the best thing to do Is to al
low the liquidation now In progress to run
it's course. 1t Is appreciated that the
bolstering of weak spots might be tenn
porarily effective. but it would only be a
question of time when other developments
would be likely to undo the repairs which
had been accomplished. and only provoke
another period of unsettlement, and per-
haps collapse later on.
The process Of clearing out by the
banks loans which are secured by COL
lateral Of an anyway questionable nature,
is expected to proceed further. Some OF
the heaviest selling in yeste days mar
ket is known to have been occasioned by
the liquidation of collateral for loans. and
it Is taken for granted that the process
has not been completed
: With the declines in prices. each new
low level is calculated to provoke further
selling of stocks by those who for one
reason or another are not IN position
to extend further protection to their COM
mitments. There Is good deal more
apprehension that certain other wealthy
men who have become very much extend
ed will be compelled to throw over large
additional blocks of salable securities.
-
One of the worst features of the sit
uation is the absolute lack Of buying
power, and it is obvious that the market
is left virtually without any support
whatever, except that which comes from
time to time. from the short interest
Some observers maintain that yesterday
they detected accumulation Of stocks by
strong banking interests. but 1t was not
of the sort which was designed to change
the course OF the market. Every one
familiar with Wall street knows that
strong financial interests. when they wish
down. but their coming into the market
does not always mean that 1t has reached
bottom. 1t is also noted that the volume
Of odd lot orders has been increasing
within the last few days. but this also
does not furnish any indication that the
necessities of individuals will not compel
them to continue the sacrifice OF their
holdings.
