Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial WrI.er

NEW YORK, March 9.-The stock
market shifted to varying winds today,
rallying, then drifting lower as tax
selling and profit realization appeared.
As the final hour neared losses
among the leaders ranged from frac-
tons to a point or more
The rails, which had made q fair
showing in the face of what was de-
scribed as a less than expected in
crease in freight rates, granted by the
Interstate Commerce Commission, lost
stamina as the day progressed. Dips
Of point or more were frequent in
the group.
The slump was general. Steels,
rubbers. coppers and some farm I'm
PIGMENTS yielded early gains. Motors
were more resistant.
Losers-some of them came back a

Manville, Consolidated Edison, Boz

Resistant were Sears-Roebuck, In.
ternational Harvester, Du Pont and

Transfers were at the rate Of
about $4,000 shares.
Bonds were mixed, with a number Of
the carrier issues showing strength.
Commodities were uneven. Foreign
markets were irregular.
Wall Street took some heart from
business news. A number of favorable
1887 earnings statements made their
appearance. The American Fedora.
zionist reported increased employment
in February.
Another cheering dispatch came
from Detroit. where it was disclosed
the newly initiated drive to clear used
cars from dealers showrooms was
producing Unexpectedly good results.
Some important automotive manu-
facturers were said to have revised
production schedules upward.
Rail equipment stocks were bolstered
by the hope that now. with uncertain
ties over rates cleared up, the carriers
would begin moderate replacement OF
WORKOUT and old cars. Imminence OF
the Presidents conference with ran
executives next week stimulated belief
some form of Federal aid might be
forthcoming.
