New York, Feb. 15.-Stock trading
Tuesday was largely ovcrshadowed by
pressure against Reading issues. Com
mon shares recorded an extreme de-
cline of points and the first and sec
ond preferred 3i.s and 5N points re-
spcctively.
Heaviness OF the Reading group
which later extended to the general
list left little doubt that the terms of
the segregation are extremely disap-
pointing to speculative interests. A
noteworthy incident was an advance in
foreign exchange which caused Brit
ish remittanccs to mount to their high
est quotations this year.
There WAS partial readjustment of
prices in the latter dealings. when buy
ing of equipments and stccls caused
shorts to cover in rails and oils.
Sales 635. 900 shares.
The money market was unruffled.
the only change of interest being the
greatest firmness of call loans at I per

smaller than usual. due IL was said to

first November flood in more than
twenty years was today sweeping
down the Ohio river from the up
per reaches of the Monongahela
and Allegheny, the result OF an
almost continuous rainfall for sew
eral days. The flood stage, "2 feet
at the Point bridge, was reached
before daybreak, and few hours
later the Ohio was rising three
tenths of foot an hour.
Scores Of persons living in the
lowlands of the North Side were
taken from their homes in boats
by the police, while rising waters
compelled the suspension OF oper-
ations in number of mills and
factories.
Reports from points along the
Monongahela river said the dam
age would be heavy but no esti-
mates could be made until the
flood had receded.

Navy Program
Nearly Ready
For Approval

Washington. Nov. 29.-(By AS
sociated Press. American naval
experts presented to the Japanese
and British officers Monday de-
tailed answers to questions pre-
,ented last week as to the Ameri-
;an naval reduction program. The
sull membership Of the technical
commission Of thu a~)e, confer
snce was not in session.
The extensive examination of
hgures of all three powers as to
Existing naval strength Of each
,ouhtry has not resulted in any
.hahge Of the original figures in
)ecretary Hughes proposal. l. is
ssumed that during the week,
,ossibly in matter of hours, the
taval reduction problem will be
formally returned to the confer
,nce for action.
Assurances that the American
calculation as to existing Japa-
ese naval strength has heen
.Jund to be accurate In the Amer
lean view, lends additional weight
% the repeated declaration that
he American delegates will stard
firm for the "5-5-3" ratio pro-
posed for limitation of naval con-
,truction at the end of the ten
ear holiday period. 1t would also
ildicate the improbability that
the American delegates would
gree to retention by Japan of the
lattleship Mutsu, although no
,tefinite statement in this regard
tas been made by any member of
;he delegation.
