MARKET WAS DULL
Due to Waiting Attitude Rather Than
to lndifference-Some Stocks
Higher,

! New York, Sept. 14.-While not pre-
cisely apethetic todays stock market
| lost much in animation compared with
last weeks rate of activity. The dun
rather than to Indifference The wait
| ing was on an expected announcement
| of financial readjustments Of the Har-
riman Pacific primarily. There were
definite limitations that some such
announcement was to come shortly
! and speculative snmise was alive as
to its nature, with no authentic infor-
nation TO guide it, A large proper
ton Of all the dealings. was in the two
Hartman Pacific stocks and Reading.
These three stocks were lifted az.
excessively at the opening and at var
ious times thereafter The opening
advance was made by outside buyers,
who had placed orders with commits
sion houses over Sunday to pay high
prices The way in which prices raa
off from this opening level suggested
4 distribution and suspicion Of this
dominated professional attitude to-
ward the market for the rest of the
series. There was nothing new to eX
plain the prominence of Reading, and
the commodities clause decision was
assumed to be the reason for its
strength, Quieter speculation was due
partly no doubt to the recognition
that conditions have ceased to work
towards increasing supplies for the
money market and hive turned in the
direction of depletion. The call money
rate lowered around ? per cent and
the prolonged period Of one per cent
call money was regarded as evident, !
" ended, Time money rates were
marked higher. Other departments of |
h money market reflect some IN
creased inquiry, including mercantile |
paper although the rates are not yet |
Iuotably altered. Railroad traffic of |
icials reported some Improvement in |
he tonnage movement, August gross
'arnInga reported by the Great North.
