The following analysis OF the New York
market situation was received yesterday
by w. B. Hibbs & Co. from Logan &
Bryan, their New York correspondents:
I'VE believe that long lines should be
kept within reasonable bounds even II
additions thereto have to be made at
higher level later. An eleventh-hour
adjustment of the wage controversy or
es -. iii II
some legislative action can be obtained,
Is quite probable"
The following stock opinions yesterday
we're received by w. 5. Hibbs-& Co. from
financiers OF prominence:
Henry Clews & Co.-"The general stock
market is in a sound position"
Hayden Stone7"The advance In the
stock market has weakened the technical

elimination"
Paine Webber-"American Telephone

TRADING RESTRICTED
in new YORK MARKET
Sudden Abandonment of Pool Achu-
ties Causes Surprise.

New York, Aug. 29.-Dealing in the
stock market was restricted today and
price changes were unimportant IN most
issues Nearly all active Issues showed
some declines. The chief feature Of the
dsv was the sudden abandonment OF
pool activities.
wan street is Of the opinion that be-
tween Congress and the President a
strike will be averted. but only by the
passage OF speedy legislation. The hnan-
cial world has lost confidence in the
managers both OF the railroads and OF
the unions President Wilson's speech
to Congress was fayorably commented
on in high circles, particularly as 1t dis
closed the fact that the President had
used all his influence to get an increase
of freight rates If proved necessary by
experience under the eisht-hour day.
With a Democratic President willing
10 20 so far to get a square deal Tor
capital, Wall Street is likely to lose It's
fear of politics altogether. for candi-
date Hughes has a record OF Which the
railroads in particular are snot AFRAID.
The strike situation therefore shouid
serve at least one useful purpose IN
thus removing the fear of the election.
II present earnings were 10 continue
the roads wouId not hesitate to grant
an that the men are asking. because 1t
is volume and not rates that make earn
ings. With the President OF the United
states promising that the roads shall
be reimbursed It looked to impartial Wall
Street as II the railroad managers had
been placed on :he defensive.
Studebaker was comparatively weak
because Of a rumor Of new financing. II
was denied and the stock quickly recov-
cred. Motors as n whole, however. were
not strong because the street believes
that the war Of price cutting is going
TO hurt some Of them very much.
Identity OF the insfder who has been
selling wilIys-Overland stock so per
sistently in recent weeks was learned to-
day. II is not Mr. Willys.
Marine stocks were the most active is
sues and most OF the enthusiasm was in
rhe preferred. There is official denial OF
the report OF n plan to retire the pre-
ferred with its dividend par for par with
common stock and starting the common
stock on a dividend Immediately.
Coppers were neglected.
Wheat having broken severely because
OF Roumania's entry into the war, rose
several cents a bushel today because a
railroad strike would make shipments
difficult Corn was only moderately in
fluenced, for the strike, If called. will
be over before the big movement Of corn
begins.
