Traders Shou kndecision- Stocks Soft IN Spots
NEW YORK STOCKS WERE EASIER,
UNION PACIFIC AND STEEL
r. THE WEAKLINGS.

NEW YORK. Sept 1s.-Today's stock
market seemed to lack definite trend,
despite the fact that there were gen.
eral declines at the opening. The bears
acted in the same uncertain manner
that characterized their movements yes
terday. They were watchful and as
anxious to get busy as ever. They pro-
fessed to read continued prosecutions
under the Sherman law between the
lines Of yesterdays speech by the Presi-
dent, although 1t is extremely doubtful
II they read much more than the head
ings.
As a result of this theory they played
their hands at the opening and found
stocks weakened as they sold. But the
selling was not impressive enough to
suit them, and they soon began cover
ing, cautiously, but with sufficient
anxiety to start a recovery that wiped
out many Of the earlier losses, and some
slight net gains were made, the old
leaders, Steel, Smelling, Copper, and
Union Pacific failing TO come back to
the closing levels of Monday.
The attendance in commission houses
and brokers offices was not as large
as usual, from which the impression
might be drawn that the would-be buy
ers have determined to await further
recession
