STOCK TREND DOWNWARD.
Uncertainty Over Tax Legislation
Held to Restrict Trading.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 9.-Stock prices
pointed downward in today's extremely
quiet session. Uncertainty over the out
come of tax legislation continued to be
held responsible for the restricted ma
ture of trading. Good buying was noted
at intervals in the railroad group. Sales
approximated 100000 shares.
The closing was irregular. Weakness
of the Yellow Cab issues, which broke
to new 1924 lows, unsettled the general
list in the late trading.

BOSTON, May 9.-The Commercial
Bulletin will say omoFrpw:
THE wool MAJ ket continues erratic
Manufacturers, naturally. are not trying
to stiffen prices for wool; indeed. they
have little to encourage them in the
goods market, and so the wool mer-
chants are rather nonpfussed over the
future.
I'm the west operations have been
more or less subordfnated to the one
big deal; that is, negotiations for the
Jericho woods, on which the highest bid
Monday was 4O}4 cents. These bids
being refused, an option was taken for
few days at 43 cents. which was fixed
by the selling committee as the mini
mum Last year 81 cents was paid for
this clip.
London opened with prices steady
except for low greasy crossbreds and
inferior continental types With
Yorkshire and on the continent ii
is evident that the peak load has
been reached by the holders of wool
and SO London has been a bit ir-
regular. Bradford top makers, how
ever, refuse to break prices and
predict a big market in the near
future. Prices were steady at the
Brisbane sale.
"Mohair is very firm on moderate
business. The west is getting rap
idly cleared at full recent rates.
