MODERATE LOSS SHOWN

NEW YORK, September 30.-Possi-
bilities of a clash between British
and Turkish troops in the neutral
zone Of the Dardadnelles resulted In
a renewal of short pressure and the
further liquidation of weak end ac-
counts in today's brief session Of the
stock market, prices Of few specu-
lative favorites registered declines Of
one to six and one-half points, while
moderate losses occurred throughout
a greater part of the list. The dis
position of traders to wait over the
week end before adding to their COM
mitments resulting in lack of fresh
buying power, accelerated the decline.
but there was no heavy unloading Of
stocks. Sales approximated 100000
shares.
There were a few outstanding ex-
tional Biscuit, which was pushed up
nearly IL points yesterday. advanced
5 more today on reports of capital
readjustment. but half of today's
gain was forfeited before the close.
Otis Elevator jumped points.
Mexican Petroleum was the indi.
vidual weak feature, drive of short
interests against this issue resulting
in a net loss of 6ls points Other
oils were weak in sympathy, losses of
to 2A points being registered by
Standard Oils of New Jersey and
California, Royal Dutch. Houston Oil
and Pan-American issues
Independent steels also manifested
acute weakness, Crucible being forced
down more than 3h points. Lacka-

Rails Are Rated Heavy.
Rails were heavy with the rest of
the list. but most declines were held
within point. The few which drop
ped a point or more were New York
Central, New Orleans, Texas and Mex
leo. St. Paul preferred. Baltimore and
Ohio. Lehigh Valley, St. Louis South
Western and Reading. Public Utilities
were sold freely, some of the weak
est spots being Consolidated Gas,
Columbia Gas, Pacific Gas and Public
Service of New jersey.
Despite the weeks active stock
market dealings. actual loans and
discounts OF clearing house banks
showed nominal decrease. Reserves
of members IN the Federal Reserve
Bank increased $26. 1000 zoo net, net de-
mand deposits expanded by $57,1s0,-

tied from the start. First prices were
easy at a decline of Is to 38 points
under liquidation, local and southern
selling. There was q good deal OF
trade buying to fix prices at the de-
cline; also considerable covering for
over the week end. This caused rail-
lies of some Is to 25 points shortly
after the call. but the southern SELL
ing continued and the market soon
showed renewed weakness.
There appeared to be no change OF
sentiment as to the probable showing
of the government reports which are
scheduled for publication Tuesday OF
next week. Ideas as to the ginning
prior to September 81 range from
about 100000 up to 100000 bales.
and the average of the private and
September crop reports points to a
condition of sos and a crop indica-
tion of 10,149,000 bales. Week lend
reviews of the domestic goods trade
were regarded as generally encour-
aging, but the continued good weather
in the south was commented upon as
permitting further rapid progress
with picking and marketing. 1t was
reported that a little high h-grade cot
ton was being received here from
Texas for certffication with a view to
delivery on October contracts. Ac-
cording to local brokers, however, the
main features discussed on the de-
cline were the foreign politics and the
continued southern selling.
