FINANCES AND MARKETS

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-The crisis in the steel labor situation was again the overshadowing influence in today's ner- vous stock market. other considerations and developments, including several of favorable import receiving scant at tention.
 In financial circles it was still be- lieved that the views of the conserva- tive element among the labor leaders would prevail, but advices from Pitts burg and other industrial centers seemed to offer little encouragement.
 Trading was lighter and more cir cumscribed that at any recent period but the trend during the greater para of the session was downward, leaders for the most part recording lowest prices of the week.
 United States Steel was under con- stant pressure losing about one and one half points at its lowest and re- covering more than half at the close. Associated issues and allied equipments followed the same course, though fluc- tuating within a broader radius.
 The money market frightened, open ing at four per cent for call loans and closing at six, but conditions in foreign exchange were more favorable
 Liberty 3%s, and AZ were active and strong, but other domestic issues and internationals developed moderate irregularity. Total sales, par value were $1s,500,000. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.
