In Wall Street
Shorts Havo Bad Day

The market trend until i o'clock
yesterday made it appear that the
bears were going to have another field
day. The bulk Of the selling attack
was directed against Southern Pacific,
which responded by decline of more
than four points in the morning, trad
ing, only to come back with a rush in
the afternoon to 11012. The decline in
the stock was most pronounced short
ly after the announcement was made
that the oil segregation plan would be
made public at 6 O'Clock. This led to
reports that the terms of the plan
would not be as favorable to share
holders as had been generally ex-
pected. That these rumors were moth
ing more than wild guess was indi~
Gated by the Dig buying orders which
were placed in the stock in the after
noon. The rights to subscribe to the
stock of the new oil company were
also heavily traded in on the Curb
market. On a turnover of approx
mately $4,000 shares they opened at
II, broke to Is, later sold as high as
24as and closeI at %.

Stocks Rally
After Decline
In Rail Issues
Shorts, Seeking to Cover,
Bid Up Prices Quickly in
tho Latter Part of the
Session; Commodities Up

Despite weakness in the stock mar
ket until about 1880 o'clock, resulting
from heavy Offering Of the rails, forces
making for slightly higher quotations
dominated the course of the specula-
tive exchanges yesterday. When those
short of industrial securities sought to
use the temporary further decline as
an opportunity to cover on terms sat
lsfactory to themselves, prices forth
with surged upward, and the rebound
was the most active aspect of the days
trading, In which floor operators again
played the principal role.
The recovery brought the movement
| OF stocks into consonance with the
days developments in the commodity
markets and in the foreign exchange
mart, where the tendency was to re-
cover further from the recent low lev
els attained. In the cotton and grain
exchanges there were indications that
the prevailing prices were considered
sufficiently attractive by foreign pur-
chasers to induce them to enter the
market to limited extent on the buy
ing side. Following a firm opening in
the Liverpool market, cotton quotations
in New York opened higher and he'd
their gains, closing with increases in
price varying between 81 and So points.
The disparity between the high and low
prices of the day in the wheat pit
amounted to 10 cents bushel, and at
the final sales wheat quotations re-
vealed spurts of from 51a to 5% cents
bushel for the day. In response to
the same impulses, corn gained be-
tween "a and 25s cents. After the re-
cent severe depression in commodity
Irices, only a relatively small amount
of regular buying and covering orders
were required to cause the squirt, which
was to be expected on the basis of what
Is known of the technique of the mar
ket place.
The Street attributed the heavy
selling of the rails in the morning to
the expression by W. W; Atter1bury,
Railroad, of the dangers which he be-
lieves the present management of the
railroads face from the standpoint of
the aims of organized labor. During
the slump the lower priced rails were
especially hard pressed, but later in
the day all recovered their losses, and
in many instances showed net gains
tionally heavy turnover in Southern
Pacific shares, as traders knew that
the plan for the segregation of the oil
/ lands would be made public at 6
o'clock last night. The stock sold as
low as 105h, but it came back quickly.
Similarly traders on the curb began
to buy and sell rights and the swing
between the high and the low reached
eight points. The rally indicated that
buying came from those who felt
confident that they knew how the
Southern Pacific stockholders would
fare in the readjustment snd the pub
lished plan correspondent with the
prediction made in brokerage quarters
that shareholders would have to pay
SIS for each unit Of stock in the new
cOmDanv.

Little Doing in Arbitrage

The special committee of the Stock
EXchangec which has under it's special
jurisdiction the handling of brokers'
reports concerning their arbitrage oD-
erations with London and other Euro
pean cities stated there was no ev!-
dcnce that any great amount of busi-
ness had been done yesterday. although
that was the formal opening day for
resumption Of arbitraging As the
new regulations under which joint ac-
count arbitrage is to resume require
that the New York broker file report
of his activities with the committee
of the exchange, it was assumed that
no business was done except what has
been going on with Amsterdam for
several months past.

Copper Meetings Soon

With the price of copper now being
quoted under IA cents a pound, level
at which it is understood the majority
Of producers cannot show a profit on
their sales, more than the usual in
terest is taken in the forthcoming
meetings of directors. Utah, Ray Con-
solidated, Chino and Nevada Consoli-
dated will meet for dividend action
next week, while the Anaconda and In
spirations boards will convene the last
Of the month. The prediction is made
that at least some of the companies
will cut their rates of distribution,
owing to lack of demand for the red
metal and the fact that the price of
copper IS now at the lowest level
since 1914.

Continental Motors Cuts Dividend

Unsettled conditions in the auto
mStive industry were reflected in the
announcement yesterday of a reduction
in it's common dividend by The Con-
tinental Motors Corporation, one of the
largest manufacturers of internal com
bustion motors for automobiles. The
reduction was from per cent to /
per cent. quarterly. The company says
in its letter to stockholders: "The
financial statement now being prepared
will disclose the fact that our fiscal
year which closed October 81. was the
best in our history, both IS to net
profits and volume Of business. This
has been accomplished even after con-
t'nuing our conservative policy of
setting up ample reserves for deprecia-
ton, taxes and contingencies This
conservatism reflects itself in our
strong position during the present
business depression, and an early re-
sumption of business is anticipated" :"

Loan Ruling Approved

The proposed amendment to the con-
stltutlon of the Stock Exchange pro-
vldlng that call loans cannot be called
after 1915 each day, instead of l
o'clock, has been approved by ma
Jorlty OF the members, and Will be.
come effective beginning to-day. The
new regulation was recommended by
tne governing committee to facilitate

1t is understood that the banks have
expressed their willingness to cooper
ate with the exchange authorities in
their efforts to make effective the new
amendment regarding loans.

Sinking Fund Operating

Comment has been made during re-

kets on the sturdy resistance to selling
offered by the various Liberty Loan and
Victory note issues. 1t developed yes
terday in this connection that the sink
ing fund which provides for the pur-
chase of the bonds by the Treasury
has been operating actively for 1ort-
night This buying, bond men said, had
offset in large measure the sales Of
Liberties and other government issues
made for the purpose of establishing
losses for tax purposes and for raising
cash.

Steel Under so

What the chronic bears predicted
several months ago as sure to happen
came to pass in the stock market yes
terday. Steel common, the market bell
wether, broke under $50 share. How
ever, it would not have done so had the
stock not been selling "ex" the quar-
terly dividend Of IA per cert. With
the dividend off, Steel opened at 80l4
milled around 80 until midday, then
slumped to 79&, when it came back
with great vigoc as the bears rushed
to cover. 1t closed right at its high
for the day. S1ss.
