Trading was dull at yesterdays session

Dividend declarations on the various
copper stocks are due today. These in
cIude Utah, Ray, Nevada. Chino Butte
and Superior. 1t Is expected they will be
made on the same basis as those for the
last quarter.
American. Can directors also are due to
meet today. but no one is expecting any
dividend on the common stock of that
company.
The following analysis OF the New
York market situation was received late
yesterday afternoon by w. B. Hibbs &
Co. from S. 3. Chaplin & Co, New York
correspondents:
THE decline in prices from midday un-
der the lead of the high priced industrial
specialties was plainly due to increased
pressure of scattered liquidation. good
deal of II came from the buyers during
the closing days OF last week, but more
particularly during the bull movement
which pre- vailed in the market during the
trading of Monday.
THE stocks which were then so active
ly bought and bid up in the late trading
were the weakest features this afternoon
with I. D. breaking to below 12o and
showing a maximum decline of 10 points
from its rise on that occasion. Other
notably weak features were Bethlehem
Steel. Westinghouse and the motor and
shipping shares.
"A noticeable absence of new local oil
outside commission house buying support
was the feature of today's trading. This
with the more acute tension with which
the German-American political relations
was rather generally regarded, had a de-
pressing influence on sentiment and LED
to the cancellation of many buying orders
whose presence in the hands of special
lists had given the market in the pres
ence Of such good support yesterday.
THE opinion now prevails In Wal
Street and financial circles generally
from today's latest reports as to the SEN
timent which has developed In officia
circles in Germany that the administra.
tion at Washington will have great diff.

war and that the adverse sentimental in.
