MARKET WEARS
UNCERTAIN LOOK

NEW YORK, Sept 16.--Hesita-
tion and uncertainty were writ

day The uRdertone was heavy
and sometimes weak, but at other
times there was evidence of resist
ing power and signs of support
which implied a protective infiu-
ence
The transactions in United
Statess steel were more than
double those in any other one Sc
curity, and when dealings in Read
ing and Union Pacific were added.
there was not much left of the
rest of the market. The great
preponderance of the operations in
United States steel gave that stock
a large sympathetic effect on the
general market. There was insist
ent talk, also, of an open cut in
prices of steel products.
Some effect of this influence was
the report on European copper
stocks. showing a decrease in two
weeks of upward of 100000
pounds and bringing the Euro
pean visible supply down to the
lowest level touched in IL months.
The preliminary estimates of the

interesting as indicating balance

treasury operations of $6,053,00
seems 10 be thus reduced to little
over $4,000. 600. The complications

consideration in connection with
the money situation.

NEW YORK. Sept. 16.-E. F.
Hutton's wire says: With pre-
ponderance of bear talk and much
short selling in today's stock mar
ket prices yielded sharply in the
active issues and remained de-
pressed through the bulk of the
session. The market was one
largely affected by rumors en-
tirely in connection with politics
and the steel situation, and, un-
necessary to say, these rumors
were greatly exaggerated as to
the position of big people toward
the market
considerable short interest
has accumulated in view of the
bearish position toward the mar
ket by the public, and it seems
reasonable to believe now that a
strong rally viii occur.
