New York, March 9.--Wall street was
thrown into a state of decentralization
yesterday and many hundreds of thousands
of dollars were lost and won within n few
minutes when news agencies which serve
the financial district misstated the decision
of the United States Supreme Court
IN the stock tax case and declared that
stock dividends were taxable.
The service of the Associated Press was
accurate in every particular. After its
report reached the streets, stocks which
had broken 2 to l0>points under an ava
lanche of selling efders, steadied and be-
gan to climb. Fer the balance Of the ses-
sion prices continued TO strengthen, final
quotations for leading shares making
substantial gains.
During the violent declines which
followed the misleading report, frightened
traders sold almost regardless of value.
The hundreds Of thousands OF dollars
forfeited by them were captured on the
rebound by others who had refused TO
sell on the strength of the first and false
reports, or who were in ignorance OF what
was happening.
