Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. March -23.-The selling
which came into the stock market To-
dsy was sufficient to carry down
many stocks to their low prices OF
last week thereby canceling the
gains made i'm the recent recovery. In
numerous instances prices were under

ment involved some striking losses.
The most that the speculative elemen'
was expecting was two-sided mar

even among the specialties there was
no resistance to the downward tide
today. Plain evidence was given o'
the lack Of public confidence, which
has becn severely shaken by the late
happenings in the market.
