NEW YORK, September 27.-The
price trend Of the main body of Curb
Market stocks today was definitely
downward. There were exceptions,
but the manner in which recently
prominent industrials were being
liquidated indicated that speculative
sentiment was not as optimistic about
future price movements as it had
been. The market late yesterday
proved itself vulnerable to selling

recent upward movement were dis.
posed to even up accounts.
That more attention was given
words of warning by prominent indi.

sharp decline in Royal Baking Pow

the president yesterday. Yesterdays

NEW YORK, September 81 CP.-
The raw sugar market was quiet early
