NEW YORK, May 2l.-Today's stock
market left off lower Selling was fair
ly heavy all the morning. In the aft
ernoon prices rallied and activity fell
off, but just before the close the pres
sure was resumed.
Copper stocks were strong until near
the end and the oils were in demand
in the afternoon, although the gains
were not entierly held.
The volume business diminished.
Predictions that traders would endea"or
To compress transactions of five hours
into four we're not fulfilled. THE total
for the day ran well below 1000 coo
shares. In The afternoon the ticker. was
right up with dealings on he 'ioor
New York Central was very weak in
the last Is minutes, dropping to 1870
where It vas down nearly d points,
Rail Shares Lower.
Railroad stocks were lower, but there
was no rush to liquidate and there were
exceptions TO the trend. one of them
being Delaware & Hudson. Chesapeake
a. Ohio, opening 2 points down, extend
ed the loss subsequently. Erie was
moderately lower and so was Pere Mar
quette. Stocks not directly affected by
the decision sold OIL and yet the VOL
ume of trading in the rails was not
nearly as large as in the industrials. In
short the market for the rails merely
marked time pending further study of
the possibilities.
Then there was the credit situation.
Money renewed at per cent and time
money held at It's recent high. There
was no sign of any easing in money
rates. The Street had still in mind
the fact that the Federal Reserve au-
thorities were anxious to check the
flood Of speculation in stocks, That in
itself made for nervousness. which was
not allayed by the general downward
trend.
COppers Are Higher.
Copper stocks were active and higher
They carried the burden of all the
speculation for the advance. Leaders
were Kennecott, Anaconda. CerrO de
Pasco. Greene Cananea and Calumet

tradition that the final phase OF every
bull market is marked by buying Of the
coppers. Whether this market is an
exception in this respect. as it has been
in so many others. remains TO be seen
