NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, May 22.-The contraction in
the dealings in stocks today seemed tn
indicate some subsistence of speculative
interest. the total sales for the day fall
ing to the smallest for any day this week
The constant backing and filing kept
alive Il suspicion that concealmcnt was
being sought for the genuine trades ac-
tons under, a cloud of manipuative or
ders and the shifting operations of the
traders induced by those orders. The
opening rise. in prices. coupled to the
ed in bringing prices in some cases up
to near the high levels touched earlier in
the week. Traders who thought that this
heralded a renewal of the advance to
new nigh levels, and who bought stocks
on that assumption, were then discon-
certed by sharp reaction. The move
ment' thereafter was almost wholly con-
fused. The reaction came at the time
the announcement was made that suit
had been filed by the government against
the New Haven system alleging violation
to some of those who had bought stocks
on such assumptions. Otherwise there
was little reflection of news events in
the days market IT,; except in individual
ically on the news that the ship subsidy
provision had gone to conference in the
postOffice appropriation bill and relarsed
even more violently when the vote reject
ing the conference report was reported
