STOCKS DESCEND
WITH CRASH AND
WIPE OUT GAINS
Wave Of Liquidation Sweeps
Over the Market in the Final
Hour Many Leaders React
From 5 to 40 Points,

New York. Nov 11,-Stocks went
down with a crash today all gains
of the previous month and much more
in number OF instances being sac
rificed in the wave of liquidation
which swept over the market in the
furiously active final hour.
Excepting United States Steel and
Representative Railway shares in
which recessions were comparatively
moderate, leaders reacted five to al
most forty points. General Motors,
conspicuous for its recent advance
above 400. broke from 1856, its best
price Of the morning, to 3481h
Primarily the violent upheaval was
attributed to recurrent stringeucy in
the money market Call loans opened
at the new high Of IA per cent and
held at that price until the last hour,
when 20 per cent was demanded, with
another jump to 25 per cent before
the finish.
To add to the unsettement further
apprehension was caused by the de-
moralizing conditions which prevailed
in the market for foreign exchange.
Rates on London. Paris and Rome fell
to new levels of discount and remit
tances to less important European
centers were sympathetically affected.
The market was strong almost to
the point of buoyancy at the opening
due to calling off of the coal strike.
Sales amounted TO 100000 shares
almost 100000 of which changed
bands in the last sixty minutes. Bonds
were irregular to heavy. Total sales
par value. $13,S50.000.
