There were numetous small declines throughout the and some evidence that speculative | jes were being sold not only because he decline in stocks into which they | are convertible, but as a part of a gen- ral movement toward liquidating large s of securities. The high-grade issues were also soft, | uding such bonds as Baltimore & | 0 first 4s and United States Steel ag fund 5s.

SLUMP IN PRICES ON CURB MARKET Losses From 1 to 9 Points, With Speculative Issues Bearing the Brunt. Mark BY WILLIAM HEFFERNAN., NEW YORK, February 18 (Special). —Losses ran from 1 to 9 points in today's brief Curb Market session, with the recent speculative favorites bearing the brunt of the selling. Deere common broke from 280 to 271, Losses elsewhere were smaller and it war evident that much of the selling was for accounts that had be- come impaired. Newmont Mining dropped from 156 to 152 on running sales, while United States Freight, General Baking class | ! Electric Bond & Share and nu- merous others were off a point to al- most three points, ! The spectacular Bancitaly, which had moved upward in face of repeated officfal warnings against the excessive speculation for the rise in this issue, dropped below 174, as against the pre- vious final of 177. Celaniz issues ral- lied somewhat following Friday's sharp reactions, but the improvement was due to nothing more than covering in of shart contracts, Possibly because the oil group was fn | a more nmmughw liquidated position | | barrel, thon other groups this class of | ] 0 much affected. Prairie | red its ability to move | 2 but it hed in its ed nighly favorable | statement for 10 | ~ was no particuiar feature to ing. The market merely | through a corrective reaction L the more conservative thought | was long overdue and few stocks es- caped the selling.

Since the 15th of the month the mar- ket has been considerably more sluggish than was anticipated and is geneially the case in the weeks during which the Government employes are paid.

Profit-Taking Develops. | | | By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 18.—The buy- ing movement, which showed itself in| the cotton market after the decline tof about the 17-cent mark early this| month, was stimulated by larger dome:tic consumption figures than ex- pected Tuesday and sent the price of July contracts here to 18.50, or 140/ points above the low level of February 2. | i Offerings increased somewhat at this| figure and reactions followe” when a| | disposition to take profitt _a recent| purchases was increased by reports of | rains or snow in West Texas and| drouthy sections of Oklahoma. The buying for trade account, which | nad helped to check the January d!-r cline, seemed to taper off above the | { 18-cent level, and the market had| rather a nervous and unsettled appear- | ance at the end of the week. I Perhaps the failure of a bullish re- port on boll weevil survival pointing w| the probability of a larger than normal | percentage of emergence next Spring | to have a more stimulating effect on de- | mand during the middle of the week, | had rather an encouraging effect on | reactiorary sentiment. There was fur- | ther buying on declines on scale down, | orders, however, which was encouraged | | by reports of a better tone in the cotton | goods mark | . The uncertainty of labor situa- |tion in Lancashire has had a some- what unsettling effect on sentiment In raw cotton. and a settlement in that quarter would probably be regarded as | g-dxuunx more favorable trade con- | dition. | Nothing definite has developed with | | reference to coming acreage prospects ! |and some traders are v.u!.u for a nearer view of the outlook in this| | respect.
