The DulUess.

The pronounced falling Off in the deal
ings in the last two days OF sdgging
prices is accounted "a most healthy symp-
tom. The dulness has really been the
most prominent characteristic. There Is
no doubt that enormous realizing has
been going on since the market halted
in its upward march IA fortnight ago 4
house with a large clientele reports that
it's loans are at least $4,000. coo less than
on January l and another says that its
loans have been cut in half In other
words the commission houses are carrying
far less stock than they were few
weeks ago. Not only has profit taking
come from those who bought at the low
levels Of last fall. but 1t has also come
from people who have been carrying stocks
for many months and were eager 10 get
out even. That the market has not fallen
sharply under the weight OF this selling
can only be due to one thing and that is
the appearance OF fresh buying on a big
scale The dulness Of the trading In the
past few days may point to a reduction of
this buying power, but It also suggests
lessening of the profit taking and Of
the short selling which always accom-
pany realizing and finally on the tail
end OF reaction Ia the only selling that
remains.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
The OIL stocks,

The market for the former Standard
w subsidiaries stopped over yesterday
ana sharp declines OF from 10 to 80 points
were recorded In many issues. The os-
tensible reason for the selling was dis
appointment over the Standard OH of
New fork's per cent dividend and over
the earnings statements OF some Of the
pipe line companies. Tho disappointment
may nave been genuine. but II was In
eVitabie that the advance In these things
could not continue long at its present
pace and that one pretext or another
would cause a setback sooner or later
inc Wall Street market In these
shares since the first of tho year
mas outdone even previous per-
formances. Trading has often con.
tinued long after ordinary business
hours among the professionals, and the
tendency has been for the movement to
become a little wild. AZ n matter Of fact
yesterdays extreme declines were really
very small. They did not even cancel
the ground gained earlier IN the week.
But the fall contained the hint that a
market OF this kind in which there IL no
snort interest except perhaps tho daily
trades among the professions III apt to
become demoralized when there is any
concerted movement TO liqu!date Yester-
days selling seemed to proceed from local
sources. outside holders are hardly near
enough TO the market 10 have part.ci-
patel on large scale.

Considerable comment was occasioned
by the official statement advising the
stockholders of Phelps, Dodge Co. that
their company had never had "a single
share OF Rock Island or invested one
dollar in any OF these securities. but that
the Ell Paso and Southwestern Railway
Company, In which some Phelps Dodge
stockholders were interested, purchased
some years ago a small minority Interest
In Rock Island preferred stock. which has
never been increased or diminished since
that date" The company saw tit to issue
this statement because Of numerous artl-
Giles printed recently intimating that
Phelps Dodge 4 Co. had been large buy
crs of Rock Island "stocks." \ literal
construction Of the wording Of this state
ment Is equivalent To q denial that Phelps,
Dodge & Go. as IA firin have any holdings
In the Rock Island securities. Obviously
this does not preclude the Idea that the
members OF that group may not have been
"holding the bag" IN the recent decline in
the collateral trust bonds. or even the
stocks.

IN" Dry Goods Economist In "A canvass
OF small ana medium sized mercantile
concerns of the country on the effects OF
the parcel post upon them finds that the
majority have benefited. Tho fear that

advantage to the detriment OF tho non

The Economist says.
the great majority uf III. retail MERIDIAN
IN small AS IN large centres, find the par

Injury. Some OF these retailers fnd that
the humber OF orders they receive by mail

in the receiving and forwarding of small
quantities OF merchandise.
The parcel post IL also credited with
having eXerted a powerful influence on
the express companies in the direction
OF Inducing them to reduce their rates.
1T Is interesting To note that while
some Of the retailers heard from COM
mend the parcel post service as being
rapid, prompt and safe. others complain
OF its slow delivery and Of frequently
receiving packages in bad order.
Perhaps the most important result OF
the Economists investigation is the knowl-
edge thus obtained that retailers regard
the zone rate AS "A great protection against
mail order house competition. From this
standpoint IL would seem highly advisable
that the zone system be permanently re-
tanned"
