WEAKNESS
IN STOCK MARKET
United States Steel and I'm.
ion Pacific Went Down
Many Points

New York, Feb. 1.-Acute weak
ness of United States steel over
shadowed all other features of the
stock market today. The price fell
four and one-fourth points, borne
down by an %outpouring of stock which
smothered all attempts to support 1t.
Union Pacific was the other one. The
collapse of these two leaders in
fuenced the market to a pronounced
degree. Losses were general among
both railroad and industrial stocks,
although the decline in most instances
was much less than that of United
States steel. Trading was much more
active. The total transactions for the
day were 100000 shares, che largest
in several weeks. Transactions in
United States steel were $4,000
shares.
There was no we'll defined explana-
ton OF the selling movement although
it was apparently due largely to pro-
fessional operations. The character
OF the quarterly report of the United
States Steel corporation issued after
the close of the market yesterday. was,
OF course. taken into consideration, but
1t was generally agreed that the re-
port was as favorable as had been
expected. London sold United States
So! neo'Ais' apparently OH account
of Its Interpretation of the report. Ar
bitrage brokers' said that the selling
OF United States steel and Union Pa
chic for foreign account amounted to
10000 or more shares.
In some quarters the pressure was
attributed to inside selling.' in others
to the belief that the permanency OF
the dividend rate on United States
steel had been called into question.

Lack Of effective support for the
market was so pronounced as to dis.
courage bull traders. The ease with
which stocks were depressed in the
morning on a comparatively small
amount of trading encouraged the
bears, m short selling became more
aggressive as the day wore on. The
the demand which steadied the list
recently was due largely to short cov-
ering. The short interest having been
largely reduced, this demand dtmin-
ished. and the market was placed in q
vulnerable position.
st. Paul touched a new low point
on its present movement, its bottom
fgure OF 1o4 Ia being the lowest Of
several years. A few stocks showed
strength for a time after the opening.

The weekly reviews Of the steel and

said to be upon a somewhat better
