FURTHER DECLINES

day-Market Was Very Much
Unnerved.

New York, Feb. 3.-The aggregate
shares and the inroads on prices OF
from / to points for practically all
active stocks offer evidences of large
liquidation in the stock market, un'
explainable by the temporary vaga'
ries of the speculative sentiment
or merely technical market conditions
The sentiment was exceedingly
gloomy and inclined to give rein to
sensational forebodings The extent
however, to which the decline has
already run justified expectations OF
reeoveries.
That all is not well with the body
economic, or with the finance and in
dustry as was assumed when the
prices of stocks were 10 to 40 points
higher than today, is increasingly ap.
parent That all is as threatening as
was assumed in the speculative gloom
of today's stock market need not be
taken for granted. The opinion that
commercial recession and industrial
reaction were shown in the securities
markets action has been gathering
adherents for weeks. The high prices
which commodities have attained and
the agitation against the high prices
with the resultant decrease in the
consumptive demand, have been con.
tributing factors.
In today's mood of the stock market
the tendency to the expanded gold
production and price imitation to bring
on financial crises attracted attention
Another factor was the public express
sion of views concerning the harm to
fallow the proposed enforcement OF
the Sherman antitrust law The sup
position was also exploited that the
clearing up of credits now in progress
might have originated as far back Us
the panic of 1907.
The market rallied | to points In
the final hour and the closing tone
was strong and we'll sustained at a
recovery, but the inviting profits en-
the days decline offered to the bears
obviously supplied much OF the III
