SOME
ISSUES

Trading In stocks contracted a little
further yesterday. although three weeks
ago. before the market suddenly swelled
out to the million share scale. the pres
ent volume Of business would have been
regarded as a highly satisfactory degree
Of activity. On the average the course
Of prices was downward to a fractionally
lower close, although the reaction so far
from the top prices Of the movemen,
has not been extensive. In spite OF the
more or less bearish nsidera tons which
have been urged on attention in the
last few days ana emphasized by trad
ing efforts for the fall. Selling for the
short account seemed TO be on the in.
crease to the accompaniment OF talk
about a "shakeout" and predictions OF
adverse developments which might dis
close a vulnerable position on the Ions
side.
Since the Rock Island receivership was
announced reactonary sentiment he.
spread through the professional COM
munty. and plenty of indications have
been afforded OF bearish sales in ex-
buying was being held out for the same
reason. An interesting situation has
manifestly been brought about, as the
market has clearly enough suffered q
loss OF momentum. but II remains to be
seen whether the slackeninG IL more
than temporary and II potential buyers
for either account will have q SUM-
cieu0y favorable opportunity to make
their purchases without bidding prices
