about the stock market outlook is
shown in the following excerpts
from weekly reviews:
HAYDEN STONE AND COM

have been, we believe. pretty well
eliminated. We should expect now
rather a quiet period of backing

we are optimistic enough to believe

that stocks should respond to earn
ings." -
1.-THE decline which began nearly
three months ago predicted the de-
crease in general business which Is
now taking place. 1t Is perhaps too
early to definitely conclude what the
current abrupt bound TO higher
prices is pointing to"
HENRY CLEWS AND COMPANY:
Decided Improvement In e good
many securities during the last
week has been the reflection OF
unquestioned continuance OF strong

MORRIS AND SMITH: We be-
Iieve that the recent advances in
many stocks does not represent the
actual trend Of the market. In fact.
we are inclined to look for further
recessions in the stock market dur
ing the next few weeks.
LAMBORN, HUTCHINGS AND

a. J. JOHNSON AND COMPANY:

IRREGULAR
TREND
Early Trading Dull With Price
Movements Controlled by
Professionals.
Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, June 4.-Stock trad
ing in the first two hours on the
stock exchange today was an ir'
regular and extremely dull affair.
Prices moved at the whim /of the
professional element and a definite
trend, either up or down, could not
be established. Developments OF
great significance were entirely
absent and the majority of traders
consequently assumed a waiting at
titude, satisfying themselves with
scalping small profits by playing
for quick turns. The thinness or
the market was again demonstrated
by the action of good many
stocks, which showed sharp adj
vances on comparatively few buy
ing orders and which dropped back
quite as easily when the process
was reversed.
BY far the weakest section of
the list was the shipping one. par
ticularly Marine preferred which
declined to new low at %. a loss
of nearly points. 1t was rumored
that the company will suspend fur
Their dividend payments. Atlantic
Gulf and West Indies were equally
weak, registering point loss at
1914.
Trading in steel and equipment
issues did not reveal any features,
except Colorado Fuel and Iron
which advanced 1 Y points to 341s.
Early firmness in both groups was
soon replaced by sluggishness,
with prices moving fractionally be-
low Saturdays closing levels.
Recent weakness and today's loss
Of 2 points in Marland was ex-
planned by the announcement that
the company is offering additional
stock. Other oil stocks moved over
q. narrow range, but with the trend
toward lower values.
Heaviness was the rule in the
motor section, with Studebaker and
Chandler Motor both losing a point
at III and 591s, respectively.
Transactions in railroad stocks
were very small but there was
practically no stock for sale around
previous levels, resulting in sharp
advances, whenever buying orders
came into the market. Union Pa
cffic made an overnight gain of
more than 2 points at 1861. where

and Lehigh Valley recorded gains

NEW YORK, June 4.-Cotton flu.
lures were irregular at the opening
today with prices from 25 points
higher to 81 points lower Moderate
buying, both for Southern and short
account, was noticeable in the new
positions. influenced by better cables
from Liverpool, which were higher
than expected.
