new YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Decline Most Violent in Many Months
in Stocks.
RATE DECISION IS THE CAUSE
Partial Recoveries Brought About by
Concerted Supporting Movement,
PesumabIy on Part OF BIG
Financial Interests.

NEW YORK. Feb 2i.-The most violent
decline in stocks which has taken place IN
many months occurred today as a result
Of the decision OF the Interstate Commerce
commission against the railroads In the
proposed freight increase. The financial
district was entirely unprepared for 50
complete a rejection OF the claims OF the
transportation companies. and the early
session on the stock exchange was char
acterized by extensive huuidauOn, wnicn al
most verged upon Generalization,
Prices Of all the active issues declined
to points at the opening on enormous
liquidation, coupled with a series OF bear
assaults. This was followed by concerted
supporting movement. presumably on the
part Of most powerful factors in the finan-
cial world. which was effective in bringing
about partial recoveries before the end OF
the first hour.
In the final hour the market grew steadily
stronger and recoveries ranging from to
points were registered. Operations for
the day were the heaviest In many weeks,
aggregating $4,000 shares. as compared with
25s,OOO yesterday.
The first effect Of the decision was felt
In the London market, where American
securities fell from to S points on heavy
selling much Of which doubtless resulted
from orders sent from this city over night
This movement IL said TO have aggregated
over 100000 shares. The heavy selling OF
AmeriCans$n London was responsible for q
sharp advance in foreign exchange here
other side.
At the opening here the features Of great
est interest were United States Steel. Read
ing. and Union Pacific, which opened ir
blocks OF $1,000 shares, 10000 and 5000 re.
spectively, at losses ranging from SIS e
AZ points.
The most cheerful note sounded dufng
the day was the declaration OF an initia
dividend of 2 per cent by the Chicago
Milwaukee & Puget Sound Railway This
is the Pacific extension OF the st. Pau
road.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2A-Playing for rally
appeared 10 be the favorite diversion today
IN the wheat pit on change. The outcome
was a success IN regard to new crop fu-
lures but the May option closed precisely
at last nights figures. July and Septem-
final gong, corn was %a1zc TO sc net lower,
oats off 3s9hc and provisions showing &c
10 i6c decline.
There was a decided disposition among
wheat traders to ignore the weakness of
the stock market, II was equally apparent
that the absence Of cash demand here had
ceased for the time being to have power
to close down prices. What proved to be
the determining influence came in the
shape OF July buying on the part OF the
local elevator men and others who pro-
fessed a belief that May delivery would
go TO discount as compared with the
later months.
Primary receipts we're light and there
was q decrease on the stock in hand at
Minneapolis. However, all price bulges
brought out enough offerings to satisfy
demand, leaving the tone at the close just
steady. May ranged from 89d90Mc and
Corn displayed weakness nearly from
the start The larger shorts had covered
on preceding days, eastern demand proved
small and Omaha in particular was offer
tween 4Sisc and 4S%c, finishing easy ia
stc down at 4sMc Cash corn was weak.
No 2 yellow closed at 461hd47c.
OatA were depressed with corn, but not
relatively so much. May fluctuated from
5l'sc TO u%qSlMc and closed 1s@hc net
lower at size.
With hOgb, corn and stocks heavy, not a
little pessimism developed In provisions
5al0c and ribs at ba73ac decline.
