STOCK MARKET
(BY M Assoeiated Prcs5l

NEW YORK, May S.-The week in
the stock market began with unmis-
taxable signs of further reaction
from the long sustained bull move
ment For the first full session in
about four weeks, dealings fell under
the million share level, barely aggre-
eating $4,000 shares.
At no time was the buying power a
match for the selling, considerable
part of the offerings emanating from
professional interests. The foreign
situation provoked heaviness among
international currencies, and domestic
conditions suggested further easement
of the recent broad investment inquiry
from out of town sources.
Industrial delevopments were con.
Iflicting, Three OF the largest oil pro-
1ucing and refining companies posted
higher prices for, gasoline and bunker
oil, while sharp reductions were an
nounced in four well known types of
automobiles.
Domestic oils and Mexican Petro-
leum. as well as the motors, equip
ments, and junior rails, yielded most
easily to intermittent pressure. Steels
afforded moderate resistance, but ulti-
mately gave way. United States Steel
forfeited much of last Saturdays sub
stantial gain, and Republic and Vana-
dunn were among the other heavy is
sues.
New Haven was the one active
stock to run counter to the general
trend, raising to the years best quota
ton in the final dealings, when the
general list was most confused. Cop
pers also helped TO sustain the market,
with a few miscellaneous specialties,
but heavy tone ruled at the closed.
Ignoring last aSturday's favorable
bank statement, money rates showed
unexpected firmness. The per cent
opening quotation for call loans re-
mained at that price until just. before
the markets close, when AZ per cent
was demanded of belated borrowers.
Demand sterling fell to f$443Ss. or.
rs cents below the record quotation
OF the previous week. Allied exchanges
fell to 10 points, but the Germon
rate lost only fraction.
