Market Very Dull
Price Trend Is Lower

New York, May 7.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
says:
Trading in today's market was Lack
ing in practically every element of in
terest save for those professional oper-
ators on the floor of the stock ex-
change who were engaged in covering
short accounts. The short interest is
in fact so extensive that traders on
that side of the market are prone to
timidity.
The fact that the market advanced
one to two points in relatively small
volume of trading would indicate that
there was less readiness to sell than
in the latter half of last week The
success Of the liberty loan offering to
date has been due more to the banks
and wealthy investors than to the aver
age wage Garner, to reach whom the
secretary of the treasury is bending
every effort to order TO give the ffotaa
tion popular character.
Prices receded somewhat from the
best level Of the day in the afternoon
session as activity died down, although
still holding well above the previous
closing. Motor and leather stocks were
particularly strong, the latter respond
ing to increasing war demand for
leather.
