TODAY IN WALL ITRIIT.
NEW YORK Sept, 25—ln the stock
market today the liquidation of yester-
Jay was very generally renewed at the
1pcnlng. and further severe declines
were registered. All the United States
iteel issues dropped to new loan re-
eords, the common stock selling as low
is 16%. lollowing opening sales of 4.-
J00 shares at from 16% to 10%. The
preferred stock declined to 02% and the
live per cent. bonds were quoted at 71
%, a drop of % from yesterday's low
price.
The market steadied soon after the
waning on buying orders which seem-
id in the nature of support and were
said to emanate from strong quarters.
l‘here was also a great deal of short
ova-ring. Reports that leading finan-
-ial interests had formed an or "cht
to support the market today could not
be verified.
bloom for slight reactions the mar-
ket continued steady up to noon. at
"1008 slightly below the top. Business
showed a market falling off from the
early activity.
Shortly after noon the market again
leclincd. as a result of another drop in
the Steel stocks, which carricd them
ill" lower. Thc common stock sold at
16. the preferred at 6013’. and the five
oer cent bonds at 71. The selling of
these securities was very general and
unexplained. The rest of the list wear
down in sympathy.
The heaviness of the general market
was reflected on the 'Curb," the most
noteworthy feature more being a five
ponlt decline in interborough Rapid
I‘ranslt. with a break of over nine
)oiuts in two days. The industrial on
the “Curb" were all weak.
The Evening Post said today:
‘l’rumincnt banking interests announc-
sd today that after the close of yes-
terday's market they had undertaken
an investigation to ace whcthcr thcrc
were any weak .houses in the Wall
Street region. This investigation, al-
though informal, was conducted by in-
terests of such extensive connections
as to make it unusually trustworthy.
I‘hcy made the unequivocal statement
today that the situation had developed
no dangerous fillilll‘ttii and that. not a
single Stock Exchange house was in
the slightest way embarrassed. They
said, however, that the feeling of 1111-
certainty prcvailing in most quarters
had given rise to many rumors. all of
.rhich were without foundations so far
is thcy related to the stability of any
large interest.
