Gould stocks Decline.

Apart from the declines in the more
active speculative shares. showing al
least an indlsposition on the part of the
pool managers further 20 support the
market bearish sentiment was intensified
by a break In some of the interrelated
Gould stocks. Missouri Pacific. and Den

bonds of Western Pacific, the new Pacific
Coast outlet Of the Gould system which,
though In operation for several months,

and Rio GTande management. as a meas
ure of protection for its new subsidiary,
might reduce the dividend on its pre-
ferred stock. which would reduce the
income OF the Missouri Pacific. the road
controlling the Denver and Rio Grande.
Not the slightest official or semi-official
substantiation OF the report was Sc
cured, sbut the statement of October
earnings OF the Hartman Pacifics, which
compete directly with the Western Gould
lines, appeared 10 many traders to sub
stantiate the reports OF poor business on

statements for previous months OF the
year, though most Of these others showed
substantial decreases In net earnings.

All this restraint was removed to-day.
with the result that short selling was
carried on more confidently and In
greater volume than on any previous day
since the bull party became conspicuous
in command OF the market. The short
selling was not greatly reflected in an
increase of activity in the loan crowd on

Bull Pool Is Weak.

Among spectators and experienced OBJ
servers Of the market the most impor-
tant OF these developments was the
seemingly weakened position OF the So
called bull pool as indicated BY the un-
willingness of the pool managers TO sup
port their favorite stocks against the
sales OF spectators and investors and
by the conceded inability OF the pool TO
dispose OF its stocks at the prices pre-
vailing before this week
As Is customary. this feature Of the
market was impressed particularly upon
tho minds of professional traders and
other experienced spectators who had
long believed that the manipulation by
the bull pool had failed OF It's object,
but had previously been restrained from
aggressive operations for the decline by
the fear that the bull party was strong
enough 10 make a sharp counter attack
against the shorts
