WEAK ON MARKET
Announcement of Governments Big
Need Depresses Trading.
CBy the International News Service.

(By the International News Service.)
New York. Sept 26-Several factors
combined today to depress the mar
ket There was some profit taking.
although the Iightness Of the days
total trading negatives any sugges-
ton that that was the ruling factor.
A per cent money rate had not
little to do with the decline. Threats
by solft coal miners Of a strike was
not without influence. Last. but per-
haps by no means least, was an an
nouncement that possibly as high as
81 per cent Of the capacity OF the
steel companies mills will be required
by the government This latter had
the effect of causing marked weak
pess in steel shares and other issues
sympathetically followed. The I'M
portant stocks which showed even a
fractional gain over last nights clos
ing could be counted upon the fingers
Of one hand.
Nevertheless, and notwithstanding
the setback today. belief that the mar
ket is in good hands and that it will
see better prices is by no means un-
common. With the price fixing of
copper and steel out Of the way. the
fixing of oil prices now only remains.
The tax law, to be sure. awaits final
passage. but Wall street already
knows its worth features. German
submarine attacks as instanced in the
news of today. are apparently subsid-
ing in effectiveness. the labor situation
is in better shape. generally. than for
eOme time.
Today being a Jewish holiday many
traders were absent. But not a few
