While there is no apparent indica-

presented before next week will not

of professional operators who make
u livelihood by the daily fluctuations
in prices. That part of the profess
sional element engaged in WATCHING
the differences of quotations ruling in
his market and in London in order
10 profit by arbitrating operations
played quite an important part in the
narrow market. The traders who
had bought stocks on a raising scale
up to the close of the day were some
what disconnected over a number of
developments which confronted them
They unloaded their light holdings as
a consequence with some precipitan-
cy. While his selling was light the
demand was even lighter and the re-
suit was rather violent breaks in
prices.
The selling from foreign sources
was prompted by the sudden turn for
The worse in the news of the relations
between Austria and Servia. The for
eign markets plainly showed the dis
turbance of sentiment caused by this
news and the reflection of this feel
ing was one OF the factors in the
opening weakness here. The clear
ing of the outlook in the Balkans dur
ing the day vas reported too late to
effect q recovery in the foreign mar
kets but there was some buying of
stocks here late in the day on the
assumption that orders will come
from abroad tomorrow to buy back
the stocks sold for that account today.
The defeat in %ongresS Of the ship
subsidy measure measure caused 4
slump in Pacific Mail as that stock
had been lifted aggressively on the
strength OF assertions that the bin
had a good prospect of passing. Dis
appointment was felt at the refusal of
the New York public service commits
sion to modify the terms Of their per-
mission for the issuance of Erie
bonds, Danger was reared of the
failure of the financial plan intended
to rehabilitate the Erie. The incl
dent widened in its effects as Il syinp-
tom Of the growing restrictions to
which corporations are subjected.
The feeling of distrust Or this score
was intensified by the terms of the
Interstate m commission rul-
ing on the Spokane rate case. The
detailed attention given in that ruling
to questions of cost of railroads, cap
italization and manner Of issue in
forming a judgment of the reason
ableness of freight charges and the
specific opinion that earnings of the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
in recent years have been excessive
threw open a wide field for c%onjec-
turc of the effects of future appliea-

subjected to some special pressure
