State Recalled in Latest Esti-
mates of Their Executives

New York. May THE New York
Evening Suns closing financial review
today says:
The stock market which is passing
through a period Of suspense and un-
certainty engendered primarily By a
credit crisis which holds no promise Of
immediate relief, was monotonousiy
ouiet today. The disinclination on the
part of the trading element to enter into
new commitments for either account was
perhaps, the outstanding feature OF the
session. So far as price swings were
concerned, little Importance could be
attached 10 them. originating as they
aid almost entirely with professional J
traders who sought to take advantage OF
the technical position Of certain shares
rather than adopt a positive position:
The volume Of transactions was about
the smallest recorded in week or more,
and the market was a very thin affair
with quotations at times moving over
fairly wide range on limited trading.
Prices opened where they left off yes
terday, but continued to sag during the
greater part Of the session. Repre-
sentative industrials reacted from to
3 points as the professional element at
tempted to make capital on the bear side.
utilizing the absence Of outside demand
to force stocks down. In this process
United states Steel went under 30 for
a loss of more than a point, while such
properties as Pan American Petroleum,
Industrial Alcohol. Baldwin, Crucible,
Continental Can. Studebaker and
Bethlehem Steel receded several points.
There we're firm spots also, the rails held
up very we'll. Atlantic Gulf went above
172 and few specialties were market
up moderately. But the list as whole
lacked vitality.
The railroad situation came in for
more attention by reason of the esti-
mates submitted to the Interstate COM
merce Commission of the enormous
amount of money required by the car :
ricrs merely to bring their physica
condition up to standard. The move TO
grant the roads increased freight rates
has probably not inspired speculative
interest in thc stocks because of the
poverty stricken state in which. the rail-
roads are revealed by the latest csti-
mates of their executives.
Az the same time the seventeen
brothcrhoods and unions of railway
workers have submitted an elaborate
petition to tho railroad labor board for
wage increases. Tho congestion OF
freight. in the meantime. is assuming
more serious proportions and is making
unavailable large amounts of capital
sadly needed in other lines.
