RAILS BOLSTER UP
 WEAKENED MARKET
Advance Strongly After Early
 Hour of Liquidation

Wall Street.-Selling of the general list was resumed at the opening of today's stock market, specialties re- cording greatest losses. Trading was
 largely professional in origin, was signs of further public liquidation was evident in some of standard or rep- resentative issues. U. S. Steel soon yielded over point with to points for Bethlehem Steel, the prominent metals. American Can, Central Leath- CT. and ears-Roebuck, and fve- point loss for Texas company. Ship pings and rails were inclined to hold except for a further break of almost four points in Delaware and Hudson. Liquidation broadened in the first hour but was checked later on sud- den development of strength in lead ing rails, which advanced one to two points over yesterdays final figures. The rise in the group was accom- panied by reports of early action wy the Interstate Commerce commission in the matter of increased freight rates. Most of the most severe losses of the forenoon were fully recovered at mid day. International bonds were strong.
 With the exception of Delaware and Hudson in which the loss was in creased to more than six points, rails made further gains in the afternoon under lead of Pacific and coa1ers. In- dustrials and active specialties also hardened.
 Closing-Prices sagged again in the last hour, some specialties then mak- ing lowest quotations. The closing was heavy. Sales were estimated at 100000 shares.
