REACTION FELT ON
NEW YORK MARKET
Railroad Stocks Traded in Only
Lightly, and Do Not Suffer as
Much as InduStriaIs.

NEW YORK, May 3.-An over-the-
weekend accumulation of selling orders,
revealed at the opening of the stock
market today. caused general re-
action that in several instances was
measured in large losses.
Railroad stocks were traded in only
lightly and did not suffer as much as
did the industrials. The latter stocks,
particular ythose which have been re-
Gently hoomed on war orders," sold
Off from one to five points.
Steel stocks manifested more
strength than did the other issues in
the industrial list. recording in the
early trading substantial gains. which
were later. however. wiped out IN
the general slump. United States
Steel common advanced during tho
first hour to 60H. or IN above Sat-
urday's closing figure, but later drop
ped for net loss for the day. Re-
public Iron and Steel also made a
erased. and crucible Steel. on the
strength of a reported $4,000, 900 or
der, sold up to 25.
The Gulfiight incident caused some
uneasiness, and professional traders
were indulging in tai kof war with Ger
many In an effort to bear" the mar
ket. but the larger interest, while well
coming a check to the speculative move
ment that has been In progress for some-
time, did not seem seriously concerned.
Stocks which suffered most were the
war specialties." Westinghouse, the
medium of a boom last week, dropped
to 991a, loss Of 43s points, a portion
OF which was recovered; Bethlehem
Steel was down at one time 5h points at
1864 and New York Air Brake declined
Az points to so.
General Motors sold off three points
to 142. and Mexican ePtroleum lost a
similar number of points, selling at
S31a.
Copper stocks also suffered. Amalga-
mated Chino and Inspiration each de-
clining a full point before noon.
The weakest of the railers were Ca
madam and Northern Pacific. The for
mer lost ~ points in the first hour,
selling at 161, and the latter rs, at 10SA.
