The long decline in the stock market
reached a climax this week in a violent
break which carried down prices in many
cases to the lowest point In several years.
Active stocks fell five to twelve points
below the quotations at the close of last

The immediate occasion Of the decline
was the United States Supreme Court 8
which was interpreted by Wall street as
unfayOrable to the railroads.
Troubled conditions In the foreign mar
ket, liquidation here for European &C
