Mexican Situation
Sends Stocks Down

New York, June 19.---The New York
Evening Suns financial review today
says:
Wall Street discussed the Mexican
situation to the exclusion of all other
topics today. The developments over
Sunday including President Wilson $
proclamation, mobilizing the national
guard of all states in the union for
service along the southern border, in
fluenced a lower opening ON the stock
exchange, but probably because the
selling movement on Friday and sat
urday which was influenced by the dis
quieting rumors concerning the turn
of affairs in Mexico had discounted
something, initial declines were not as
exclusive as most observers had an
ticipated.
There were few signs of uneasiness
and no panickv breaks. Mexican
Petroleum and Butte and Superior were
conspicuously weak and the former
lost IN excess of 3 points, while the
latter declined I points and more.
Something strongly suggestive of the
war market, the Characteristic of
which are weakness in stock and cot
ton and strength in cereals during the
latter trading. Washington advices
We're far less assuring than at first on
the prospect of escaping hostilities.
Many special issues reflected losses Of
? to 1 some going five or six points
lower. Losses OF two points or so
were common among leading indus
trials, Standard Oil and copper stocks
and recoveries were poor.
