FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS UNSETTLED.
Developments in the Situation With
Mexico Caused Liquidation.

New York, June Acknowledgement
verging at times upon decentralization,
overlook todays market, developments
in the situation with Mexico affording
a fresh outburSt of liquidation. The
decline gathered additional impetus
from the extensive operations of a
confident short interest which en-
gagged in a succession of drives against
the weaker specialties.
Chief among these were Tennessee
Copper, which opened with a decline
of Ia points on overnight announce
ment of the suspension of the dividend
subsequently extending its loss to IA
points. u. S. Industrial Alcohol, which
broke 10, or q total of 1e points in two
lower by to 5; motors, 2 to 8, and
the more active metals, zinc issues
excepted, to 8.
That the severe reversal was largely
made possible by the existence of an
overextended bull account in the mer-
curial specialties was demonstrated
by the hmneSS of representative
stocks, including dividend paying rails
and u. S. Steel. These resisted pres
sure throughout, making only nominal
declines at most.
The trading consisted of a series OF
| declines, relieved temporarily by fee
i bic rallies, but each new selling move
ment brought prices to new low levels.
Many stop loss'' orders were uncov-
cred as a result Of impaired margins,
especially in the intermediate session,
when support for some issues seemed
utterly lacking. In the final hour.
however, rallies, to which shont cover
ing contributed, effected a partial re-
adjustment, Alcohol, for instance, re-
gaining almost half its loss. Total
sales amounted to $4,000 shares.
i General news, in its broader april
cation to market values, was in most
4 respects encouraging. Local banks are
