STOCKS co lower
IN TODAY'S TRADING.
Selling Early and in the Last
Quarter Hour Leaves
List Down.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, April 2O.-The stock
market left off substantially lower to-
day as was to have been expected, con-
sidering the tncra2se In the rediscount
rate at Boston and Chicago.
Selling was heaviest at tsae opening
and In the last quarter OF an hour.
However, there was no wide-oc>n break,
while at times during the day there
was a show Of flrmness. The oils did
better than the other induStrials. The
independent motors were under pres
sure at the end.
Initial declines ranged from / to z
points. The largest offerings came into
the more speculative issues. Radio
dropped points, Paramount Famous
points: Montgomery Ward. 334 points.
and American Smelling, 3l2 points
General Motors opened with 5000 shares
at 1S9 and 400 shares at 100, OF 3
and 2 points, respectively. New York
Central started in down over 2 points
and General Electric had little larger
loss.
Market Stages Rally.
Evidently there were not the usual
number of stop-loSS orders. AT any
rate, instead Of the decline getting out
of hand. the market rallied. although
it still was nervous and unsettled. The
turnover was nearly a million shares In
the first hour, not record. but more
than in the two preceding sessions.
Money renewed at A per cent, un-
changed. Until the new situation in
the money market is reflected in the
charge for day-to-day loans, the aver
age speculator is slow to take alarm.
Another thing that helped the market
~,
such stocks as Yellow Truck g. Coach,
Atlantic Refining and one or two of
the sugars.
Independent operations for the rise
went on in Delaware g. Hudson and in
Hudson & Manhattan. Both these
stocks made new highs for the year
Both were actively bought Thursday.
and for both movements there was evi-
IDENTIFY a special reason. Delaware &
Hudson's advance was said TO have been
inspired by developments arising out of
the Eastern trunk line situation The
explanation for the buying of Hudson
& Manhattan was the old story Of d
guarantee by the Pennsylvania.
Oils Little Disturbed.
Oil stocks we're little disturbed by the
selling in the general list. Texas Cor
poration opened of points, but
Standard Oil OF New York was taken
