STOCKS UNEVEN
Mart Turns Irregular,
Bearing Professional
Aspect.

NEW YORK. Nov. a. Today-s
stock market was more active than
Its predecessor. but was an frreru.
lar affair and bore . distinctly pro-
fessional appearance. A hrm OPEN
ing was followed by q weakening
which left q mixture Of gains and
losses. Centafn fsSored industrials
gained a point or 10. but others dis
played correspondents weakness. As
far as Industrial news was concerned
II was favorable, reports showing
that car loadings for the week ended
October 20 were within 1000 OF the
highest I'm history. and steel fngot
production for October being the
largest in two years.
Opens strsns.
After q strong start the upward
pace of the stock market slack
ened very perceptibly about the end
of the first hour OF trading, and
most Of the active stocks sold of.
SO that by noon net gains were few
and far between. However. after
the rather extremely builish DEM
onstration IN many stocks. and es-
peciaIly In Steel common. during the
last hour yesterday. II was molly nat
urai that a period of hesitancy
should intervene before the upward
movement could be resumed. The
Stree refused TO change its position
on the market and continued in the
bullish frame OF mind which yes
terday's events brought into being.
General Asphalt.
The reactionary tendency OF many
stocks during the day brought an
other rather violent break in the
case of General Asphalt. which reg
istred another new low for the year
shortly after noon. After SELL
Ing around 81 during most Of the
morning the stock finally broke be-
low that figure, and subsequent
offerings of a moderat amount OF
stock drove IL down close to IS with
in few minutes. Reports that the
company's directors contemplate
passing the preferred dividend at
the next meeting. as a result Of def
icits in operations for nearly two
years past. were again in circula-
tion. but many observers were still
inclined to think that the pressure
on the stock was from professional
bear operators. With the stock
down nearly nine points from yes
terday's high it would appear that
the raid had been more than usually
successful merely as a local opera
tion. but there were some who
thought they saw signs that il was
merely part Of a broader campaign
designed to facilitate operations
elsewhere in the list.
