COPPER INDUSTRIAL STOCKS VERY
 HEAVY
Course of Market Still Is Puzzler for Profession
 al Traders

NEW YORK, February S.--The stock market showed some relief today from the stress of urgent liquidation which was so conspicuous yesterday. There was wave of selling orders for execution when the market opened, which seemed to be an aftermath of yesterdays s precipitated decline in prices. me decline served to exhaust or diminish additional margins, and where calls sent out over night were not responded to, the selling out of collateral was consequence.
 News of the market was of the same nature as yesterday; that is, it puzzled conjecture as to the source and motives of selling.
 Copper industrials were exceptionally heavy. Nervousness manifested itself in the final break in prices which put Union Pacific, United States Steel and Amalgamated Copper to the lowest price of the season, and the movement of bonds was heavy. Total sales, $4,. 3O5,OOO. United States bonds un- changed.
