LIQULDATTNG WAVES AGAIN
PLAY HAVOC WITH VALUES
Before Do,Unuard MoUement Wds Checked Prices We're
Forced Down 2 to Ouer 10 Points

New York. Feb 13.-The market this
morning was swept by another enor
nous wave of liquidation, with pro
nounced results in 80 far as further
marking down of values was concerned.
While there was nothing particularly
alarming in the overholiday develop
mcnts, the opening disclosed remark
ably heavy accumulation of liquidating
orders. These were said to be about
equally divided between the domestic
and foreign account. Coupled with the
concentrated attacks on many of the
leading issues by powerful bear COM
binations, prices melted with alarming
rapidity all along the line.
1t was in the speculative industrials
the liquidation appeared to be the most
urgent, although the standard rails also
continued to weaken, which was partly
ascribed to the foreign liquidation, which
in the opinion of some close observers
has been an important factor in the
shakedown of security values through :
out the week. The rail group were
also adversely affected by the uneasi
ness manifested over the labor situa
ton.
For the first ninety minutes of the
trading. however, the market was
acutely unsettled. although without the
first signs of either decentralization or
anything approaching panicky condi :
tions. On the contrary. the declines
while reaching extensive and alarm

ing proportions were conducted entirely
on an orderly scale.
From the outset until near midday
the market continued to weaken under
the increasing pressure directed against
the highly speculative issues, under the
lead of General Motors and Crucible
Steel, which reacted 10 and II points
respectively. Among other industrials
the reversals ran from 2 to 8 points,
the railroad shares at the same time
adding moderately to the initial de-
clines. Tobacco, leather and food stocks
were the weakest of the so called spe-
cialties, forfeiting 8 to 5 points.
Toward noon there was a pcrceptible
lessening of pressure ip all parts of the
list which was partly attributed to the
hopeful view Of the street of the con =
ference between the President and the
representatives Of the railroad brother
hoods. Rallies were noted in so many
stocks as to make many believe that
the market in a majority of issues
reached bottom, but similar ideas had
prevailed at all stages of the downward
movement which carried prices to the
low levels reached this morning.
Profit taking on the part of the short
interest also was an important factor
in bringing the reversal in the market
trend. In all events, featured by the
oil and shipping shares, rallies of , to
points from the low water mark of tbs
morning were established all through
the list by midday.
