STOCKS IRREGULAR
IN SELLING DRIVE
Market Absorbs Liquidation
in Morning-Motors in
Active Demand.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, December 6.-With al
ternate periods of weakness and
strength this mornings stock market
was still erratic and uncertain. Fav-
ored industrials were bid up again,
taneously with heavy leaning in other
parts of the list.
Initial quotations we're generally
lower, but not Importantly SO. The
overnight orders were predominantly
on the selling side. The market alb
sorbed them with only minor losses,
and then operations for the rise were
resumed in specific issues.
The motor stocks were in active de-
mand, under leadership of Packard and
of Chrysler. Packard climbed more
points to new high as it sold at 158,
and Chrysler added nearly four points
to its gain just below 1873. Buying in
these two stocks was persistent and ap-
parently confident General Motors lag
ged behind, but was not weak, while
Brockway led the truck issues, rising
points.
Industrial SpeciaIties.
Among the industrial specialties,
Johns -Mansille had a sharp recovery
Burroughs Adding Machine sold at a
new top above 200 and A. M. Byers
did the same around 205. Mohawk
Carpet, a comparative newcomer to
the exchange, was given a Whirl into
record high territory.
The merchandising and mail order
stocks moved uncertainty. Associated
Dry Goods made a new top early in the
session, but reacted afterward. May
Department, Sears-Roebuck and Wool
worth were lower. So was National
BellaS Hess.
Then there was the curious phenom-
enon of heaviness in the coppers and
in the oils, in both of which trades
the outlook is especially good. Copper
stocks sold off easily and the oils were
almost uniformly lower. The most rea-
sonable explanation was the lack of
any considerable short interest in these
stocks.
The rails did little Notwithstanding
the repeated predictions of big bull
market>in carrier stocks" Kansas CITY
Southern, Norfolk & Western and Texas
& Pacific were up moderately, while
Missouri Kansas Texas, Chesapeake &
Ohio and Rock Island we're down
Utilities were heavy, notably Columbia
Gas, International Telephone g. Tele-
graph and North American. The local
fractions did better.
Trade Volume Small.
Money renewed at per cent as it
had done on the day before. For a.
time it looked as though the rate might
go lower, but demand increased in the
early afternoon with the result that the
charge was raised to 10 per cent. equal
ing the high of the year The volume
was lower than in any recent session.
