h t itSs s,d,, E DUE ,sFf'.5eeF clITT|NG TradersW onfused By Ac- tion of Republic and
 Other Companies

New York May 25.-Events which fol- lowed the action of the Republic Iron and Steel company yesterday in reducing prices were the predominating influences today in the securities market. Traders were confused as to the exact meaning of the move of the Republic company, which was soon followed by similar &C., tion on the part of other independent concerns and by a subsidiary of the United States Steel corporation.
 Various indefinite reports of probable further price cutting by many or all steel and iron producers and by manufacturers generally added to the confusion and it seemed doubtful whether this phase of the situation could be cleared until 1t is apparent whether reduction of prices has exerted a favorable influence in stimu- lating business. Some steel interests take the view that the poor condition of the trade is not concerned with prices, but rather with general industrial conditions and that price cutting will have little effect.
 United States Steel shares were natu- rally the target of most speculative marksmen, The stock sold off rather. sharply in large blocks to TEA during the first hour, in which time transac- tions in the stock aggregated more than so,oOo shares or about 40 per cent of the total transactions for the period. After a decline of a point the stock rallied and showed degree of strength which was surprising to traders. The Republic Iron and Steel issues held at slightly be- low yesterdays figures and Sloss-Shef- field, another independent company, fell a point
 Elsewhere the list showed strong sup port. Such standard shares as Union Pacific and Reading declined only frac- tionally at the time when United States Steel was being battered relentlessly by the bear traders. Certain specialities. such as American Beet Sugar, which touched the highest point in its history, showed distinct firmnrss. In fact, after the first outburst, the market settled down to dullness, business after the opening hour being relatively light. In the last hour trading became more ac- tive and prices which had recovered from the small losses earlier in the day re- ceded slightly. Net changes in most cases, however, were without signifi- canoe.
 The sale of the Oregon Railroad and Navigation company, subsidiary of Union Pacific, of s25,oo,0oo per cent bonds, to an international syndicate, which will offer the bonds here and in London, was accepted as a further in- dication that bankers have no serious misgivngs as to the immediate future.
 It Is understood that the issue already has been oversubscribed.
 The April report of the Atchison road received much attention on account of the large decrease in operating expenses, amounting to $710,ooo. Although gross earnings fell over s4IS.Ooo, the reduction in expenses resulted in a gain of 23l,o00.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, s2.51S,Oo0. United States bonds were unchanged on call
