PRENOSIL Associated Press Financial Editor New York, Nov. 19 (#—There were more sellers than buyers in the stock market today with the result that the general price tendency was diownward. Trading failed to main- tain the terrific pace set in the series of record-breaking sessions last week but, due to the accumula- tion of small orders, the ticker again fell hopelessly behind the market, being 50 minutes late at 1:15 p. m., The decline, which ran from 1 to 4 points in most of the active issucs and 5 to nearly 10 points in some of the high priced specialties, was by no means general. Bull “pools” were again active in a select assortment of copper, eastern rail, merchandis- ing, oil and chemical issues, a score of which were pushed up to new high records. Heavy seling presumably was in- spired by week-end commission houses advices which suggested the taking of profits in issues which had been prominenet in the recent up- swing. There was nothing in the day's news itself to influence the liquidation of stocks as the large | majority of the weekly mercantile and trade reviews were optimistic in character.
