Early Declines Regained Later When
Requirements OF the Shorts
Asserted Themselves.

New York, Aug. 3.-~Tne stock mar
ket today disclosed its narrow limita-
tons under the circumstances as they
exist The sharp rebound the day be-
fore seemed to exhaust the demand
from shorts and while no renewal of
urgent selling, which has aroused
suspicion, forced liquidation, there
was a pressure of stocks for sale to
realize profits on the rebound of yes
terday. Before the close of the day
the requirements of shorts asserted
themselves again and caused a recov-
cry of most of the days declines.
The growing crops hold a large
share OF attention and their passage
through the critical period for their
welfare is the main factor of con-
straint of the stock market at pres
ent.
The government grain crop report
based on conditions August | and to
be published next Monday, is coming

Fears of the showing owing to the
drought we're tempered today by the
news of further moisture in the af-
fectei regions.
A good impression was made by
the reported assertion of Chicago
bankers that the balances of the coun-
try banks in the western reserve
centers are being largely replenished
as the result of the liberal movement
of wheat to market.
Rumors of price cutting OF steel
products by Independents were &C,
companied by the supposition that
the United States Steel Corporation
would meet the cuts. The selling of
United States Steel was of decisive
sympathetic influence on the general
list. The rally in that stock afforded
corresponding relief. Dealings in ~
Union Pacific and Reading accounted
for over half the days total bust
ness.
