LITTLE DEMAND
FOR SECURITIES

NEW YORK. May 23.-The
stock market was a disappoint-
ment today TO those who took on
week in the expectation that a
broadening of demand and rise
in prices were to be looked for
this week. The sagging tendency
of prices was directly due to sell
ing to realize by such disappointed
holders, while the expected de-
mand was not in evidence.
The deeper causes for the ac-
tion of the market or its lack of
action still remain obscure. The
tone became decidedly weak by
the end of the day.
There was insistence on the
prospect that the old project of
listing United States steel on the
Paris bourse was near its con-
summation. The stock market
was not influenced by these
claims nor by the reports of
signs of revival in the iron trade.
The sharp break in wheat prices
bore out the news of increasingly
favorable crop conditions, but al
lowance was made for the diff
culties of the speculative position
in that market.
The evidence of liquidation there
is looked upon as secondary in
importance only to the good
progress of the crop itself New
