MARKET CLOSES
HEAVY WITH BUT
FEW RECOVER|ES
Union Pacific Regains Point and
a Half of Early
Loss.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-Heaviness de-
veloped at the opening of today's stock
market Practically all active issues
show ed marked declines, with a loss
Of a point and a quarter in American
Tobacco preferred and one in Canadian
Pacific and Erie. There we're heavy
dealings in u. s.. Steel at a fractional
loss, and Union Pacific. Reading.
Northern Pacific. and Southern Pacific
all were lower.
IL a. m.-New low prices for the
movement were made by Southern Pa
cinc and American Tobacco preferred
with further declines elsewhere, Sell
ing was moderate except IN steel and
Union Pacific and the movement in a
small way resembled the recent liqui-
dalton movement. Before the end OF
the first hour Canadian Pacific had
fallen is. Union Pacific 1ss, with 1
point losses In nearly all stocks of the
speculative. class. From this level
there was a very slight recovery.
Noon-The market fell away again
In the second hour under another
spasm of selling, which concentrated
on Steel, sending that stock under Its
low price OF the year. The entire list
declined in sympathy. and at noon
heaviness was most marked on reports
OF a strike on the Hartman roads
The trading element was clearly at
work again, with an admlxture of fur
Their liquidation. Bonds were heavy.
1 D. m.-Unmistakable liquidation
set in during tho loon hour. particu-
lhrly In the Harrimans, which went
we'll below lowest prices of the year.
Weakness of these stocks resulted
from rumors hat a strike had officially
been declared on the Southern Pacific
lines. while selling OF steel, which con
tinued in large volume, was ascr4bed
to trade developments, The shutting
down OF a big Independent plant in
New Jersey was cited as proof of the
adverse conditions nov confronting
that industry. ,
A substantial rally from the low
prices OF midday was made In the next
hour, the recovery being due to denlals
of a crisis in the labor situation on the
Southern Pacific. Union Pacific and
Reading rallied a point or more, with
lesser gains in United States Steel and
the balance of the active group, The
list then resumed Its accustomed
apathy and uncertainty of movement.
The market closed heavy. Union
Pacific was the notable feature of the
last hour, recovering IL from the low.
Reading and Lehigh Valley regained
a point, but U. S. Steel continued under
pressure; also Pennsylvania, which
sold under the years low on heavy
offerings. The weakness of Pennsyl-
vania was soon felt by the entire list
and much of the recovery was lost.
