SEVERE SLUMP IN
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-The dras-
tic liquidation which was renewed
in the stock market today forced
prices to the lowest level since the
crest of the speculative wave was
touched last August. \ Declines
over night ran between and
points in most of the active issues,
with, however, some conspicuous
exceptions
Instances were found in the
Hill Pacifies and in the eastern
trunk lines in which stocks had
been persistently marketed in the
period preceding the present ses-
sion of urgent pressure.
The burden of discussion in
stock market quarters was in the
danger of collision of corporations
with the law and the activities
of the government
The attention paid to the sub
ject in the dispatches from Wash
ington aggravated the apprehen-
sion which began to grow acute
yesterday 1t was not until the
statement on the subject made by
President Taft was published that
the pangs of the market were at
all assuaged.
There was much confusion of
cause and effect in the hurly burly
Of the market. There was evil
dence. for instance. that the banks
were engaged in cleaning up the
credit accounts and were dis
eliminating with severity against
such stocks s justified suspicious
of pool manipulation.
The overhauling of loan ac-
counts by the banks had its in
centive in part. from the appre-
tensions aroused by the treatment
Of corporations by the law, as well
as by the criticisms of the purely
speculative position in the market.
The substantial ground for the
anxiety that has grown up in the
financial community is the in
creasing belief that the supreme
court viii uphold the government
in the American tobacco case and
leave the executive officers of the
government no alternative but to
proceed against combinations of
corporations.
Consideration of the expected
dividend action on United States
steel practically dropped out of
sight and the stock market closed
with prices near the lowest.
