DULLNESS RULES
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-There was some
further liquidation at times in today's
stock market. When relieved from this
pressure prices tended to recover, but the
dealings dwindled to such an extent as to
reduce the days total to the smallest fg-
ures in over a week. The day proved al
most barren of incidents and the market
of very light interest.
In the period of dizziness one or two
specialties were picked out for individual
upward movements. The telegraph stocks
were instance. Macksy companies rose
buoyantly to new high record figures, ac-
companied by rumors of intended dividend
increases. Western Union bore them COM
pany and American telephone and telegraph
was affected to a less extent. The move
ment in connection with these stocks inva-
riably gives rise to rumors of intended COP
solidation.
Some resistance to the depression was
shown by Pennsylvania, which recovered
briskly from yesterdays sharp decline on
rumors of a coming dividend increase.
Money, both on call and time, seemed to
grow somewhat easier, perhaps a result
of liquidation of stocks already affected.
Their calling of loans was being made,
both by the banks and the trust companies.
The currency movement was against the
banks still. The subtreasury has started
again to withdraw large sums from the
banks, the amount since the last bank
statement having risen to So, $50, 600, al
though this compares with loss from the
same source for the similar period las
week of SIS, 642 900. New York exchange
at Chicago declined further to 80 cents
per $1,000 DISCOUNT, and shipments of cur
rency were resumed by the New York
banks to meet the requirements thus pro-
duced in Chicago.
The money situation, in fact was ac-
cepted as the explanation of the reluctance
of the speculation to take up its activities
with vigor. even when freed from the i'm
mediate pressure of liquidation.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value. So, s6s, 900.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.
