OILS ARE RA|DED;;
TOBACCO WEAK
BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK, October 6.-The only
difference between today's stock mar
ket and that Of yesterday was that.
while the general list in both cases
went lower, there were today larger
number of stocks developing positive
weakness. For the most part this
weakness was to be accounted for on
special grounds. that is. by reasons
relating to individual properties
rather than to the situation as a
whole.
Thus, there is no doubt that the
delay in giving out anything omcial
concerning the recent conference be-
tween the American oil representa-
tives and officials Of the Mexican
government has made an exceedingly
bad impression.
1t has raised the suspicion that the
agreement. whatever 1t may nave
been. on the question Of the export
tax on oil has not met with the ap,
proval OF the ones in authority, and
consequently the whole matter of a
settlement is up in the air.
Persistent selling of American Pc.
troleum. Pan-American and Royal
Dutch was the feature of the market.
Tobacco Weak.
Next to these indications that some
thing was wrong with the Mexican
oil situation, the incidents which
counted most against the market was
the break in the tobacco shares.
Here again the explanation was OF
an entirely specific sort. American
Sumatra fell, in response to the pass
ing of the dividend, which came as
surprise to many. although it was
clearly enough foreshadowed by the
heavy loss reported in the company's
operations during the second half
year.
Retail Stores was sold because of
doubt regarding the maintenance of
the present dividend, and Tobacco
Products because of disappointment
that nothing has come of the deal"

vance in the stock a month ago.

Tobacco Products went up from

which would make the stock much

When buying began in the United
States at the time marks were selling
for nickel apiece, much paper pass

viduals and dealers. At a later period
the paper was held by the German
banks for the account of American

A shift in German policy was indi-

ties Of paper money in connection
