BY GEORGE T. HUGHES. Special Dispateh to The Star. NEW YORK, Steptember 16.—Stocks staged a promising rally late in the session .today, but recessions near the close in some of the leaders, such as United States Steel and American Can, caused the market to finish lower for its thirteenth successive session. American Telephone closed virtually unchanged after a robust w at the beginnirig of the final f hour. Meanwhile, General Electric fell to & new low level for the year and J. I Case was in abundant supply. While some of the rails were record- ing fractional recoveries, a small block of Pittsburgh & West Virginia was tossed on market at 18, a decline of 12 points and a new low for 1931. Westinghouse Electric ocontinued its earlier rally and Allis Chalmers tried ta_hold to the 20 level. United States Steel held above 80 until five minutes before the end. when it yielded as several sizable blocks ap- peared. American Can behaved sim- ilarly. Trading hesitated toward midday, when the directors of the Westinghouse Electric were in session. Previously Westinghouse stock had declined frac- tionally belcw its previous minimum price and then advanced several points. The dividend rate was reduced to basis of $2.50 a year from $4 a share. This was better than the street ha anticipated. as it had been discussin the ibility of a complete suspension of tm"nu. The stock rallied several points, but the preferred, whose rate is automatically reduced by the luwurl:s of the common stock dividend, declin about 5 points. ‘There were vague rumors of some important announcement in connec- tion with one of the most distressed groups of railroad securities. This had the effect of stimulating & short cover- ing movement in the, rail-list.

The largest gain was in Delaware & Hudson, up about 5 points. Railroad bonds were somewhat steadier. The public utility list, which had been under pressure Tuesday, wavered from time to time, but eventually showed a better tone. There was again quite heavy selling in American Tele- phone, but it had better support than on Tuesday.
