MARKET IRREGULAR At OUTSET
Series Of Bear Attacks Converges
Around Hartman issues-Generai
Late Recovery Has inception in
Fresh Buying Movement in Union
Pacific. =.
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, n. Y. Aug 17.-The
reactiOnary tendency manifested by
the stock market yesterday, became
more pronounced today. with early
declines in majority Of the standard
issues. Sentiment appeared to have
switched around very decidedly, al
though surface conditions were foT
the most part unchanged. There
was Il recurrence of rumOrs regarding
the health of prominent financier
now abroad. and the long continued
drought in the Nebraska corn belt
excites some apprehension. Another
factor which initiated against re-
sumption of bullish operations WAS
the belief prevalent in conservative
circles that the market had been go
ing forward much too rapidly.
From the very outset today's mar
ket was irregular, chiefly owing TO
series of bear attacks. which con
verged largely around the Hartman
issues. There was a general late re-
covery from the early heaviness,
which had it's inception in fresh
buying movement in Union Pacific.
Illinois Central and Louisville did no;
participate in the recovery ana some
of the less active stocks, including
American cotton oil. registered ma
terial losses.
The money market was very strong,
with further indications of a stlnen-
ing of rates. Some call loans were
again made at 2ia pre- cent. but this
was the maximum figure.
