NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-Heavy sell
ing on stocks continued in Wall-st.
today The market was supported
just enough TO keep IL from breaking.
The most important speculative In
terests= believed he=Ang
has terminated and they are now
working for a substantial reaction.
There Is evidence that the Hartman
and Morgan people have turned loose
large quantities OF stocks which they
propose to get back at lower prices.
The collapse Of the freight raising
movement has cast suspicion on the
alleged boom in business.
The liquidation OF Steel by directors
OF the trust and by executive officers
of independent steel companies is be-
ginning TO worry the professional
traders.
Continued heaviness of New York
Central is causing some apprehension
and a dividend reduction Is generally
expected. Hartman is said to be
shifting his speculative line from the
Hill Morgan stocks into Southern Pa
cifc and Union Pacific.
The copper metal situation Is at
tracing careful attention once more
The situation In that direction Is SO
highly speculative that no one would
be surprised TO see sharp break In
the metal stocks, especially in those
that cannot produce metal under
LOO pounds.
Stocks broke wildly In Wall-st.
about noon today. Under leadership
OF New York Central which was sold
down to par, the stock market de
clined an average OF two points.
The break was caused by discovery
that the New York Central has float
ing debt of about SAC, 100000 and may
be compelled to pass its dividend en-
tirely. According 80 Its own repor
II Is not earning its fixed charges.
