FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS HEAVY.
An Initial Dividend of $3o on 5ethle- hem Steel Common Was Announced.

Nek York, Jan. 20.-Almost the one interesting development in today's heavy market was the declaration of an initial dividend of $30 on Bethlehem Steen common tout of earnings for 19152 The announcement was both a surprise and a disappointment. it hav- Ing been believed in some quarters that no such action would be taken now, while in others 1t was thought that the amount of the disbursement was too small. considering the re- ported large earnings of the company.
 Prior to the publication of the Beth elem dividend the market was dull and irregular. Soon thereafter, how ever. heavy selling ensued. which was maintained on a broaded scale to the close, with severe recessions, particu- larly in war issues. Bethlehem pur- sued an cratic course on very light dealings. It fell IA to All in the fore noon but recovered to 47S before the dividend was announced, later yield Ing to 460 and closing at 479. a net loss of six points.
 United States Steel, whose dividend status is likely to be established next week, became heavy in the afternoon, declining to 83 3-S. an overnight loss of l 3-4. with no recovery. Automo- biie shares were weak throughout, General Motors falling 12 to 475, W7llys- Overland 1-2 to 219 1-2 and 6iQdCDtIhGI Q O-4 IO LOU DO. Ln6 IQOT6 distinctive war issues fell two to all most five points and oils three to ten. Texas company being again subject to steady liquidation. Less material losses were recorded by a score of un- classified stocks. Rails were lethar- gfc a. the outset. but fell away with other investment issues later, losing one to two points on moderate offer ings. Shares of the international group were heaviest, giving point to rumors of fresh foreign selling. There were gains in such stocks as Cuban American Sugar, U. S. Industrial AL cof1ol, American Coal Products and a few other issues which derived their chief impulse from pool manipulation, but these were swept aside in the weakness of the final dealings. Total sales amounted to 625.000 shares.
 Bonds were irregular to heavy in sympathy with the decline in stocks. Heavy trading in Anglo-French 5's at concessions was among the few fea- lures of that dividend. Total sales (par value) $4,445.000.
 U. S. bonds were unchanged on call.
