BEARS BEAT DOWN STOCKS IN WILD MARKET TRADING, Shares of Leading Issues Thrown Over in Big Lots, While Prices Show Heavy Declines—Big London Broker De-;| clared in Trouble, and Prospective Poor Bank Statement Act as Depressing Factors, @emi-panicky conditions prevailed in the closing hour on the Stock Ex- ehange to-day, prices running off badly from 1 to 3 points on furious ham- Mering by the bears. All the active se- Mhrities felt the attack, trading being id and in big block Sales were in heavy blocks, running from 600 to 5,000 shares, some of the wading iesuces being thrown over in 2,000 lotts. The sales of the day were bout $60,000 shares. There was a slight Tally in the final dealings, prices re- covering about 1-2 a point all around, Dut the day's losses were severe. The persistent selling of Rock Island by Harris, Gates & Co. and Coster, Knapp & Co., together with the rush @f liquidation in Amalgamated Copper @tarted and maintained by H. A. Harri- fon, were the causes which led to the heavy slump in many of the other issues during the late trading. The news that the teamsters and freight handlers in St. Louis and Kan- @as City are on a strike caught the stock market as the bulls were making @ final effort to rally and defeated any organized effort to support the down- ward tendency of the Ifst. A cablegram from London, etating that a stock operator of much promi- hence there had been forced to Iiquid- ate a long line of Canadian Pacific and Copper stocks in order to cover his short interests in cotton, helped to de- Bregs prices still further, and a rise in the rate for time money led to apprehen- sions of more gold exports and a very unfavorable bank statement. Canadian Pacific lost 31-2 points in sympathy with the decline abroad and under pressure by the Montreal opera- tors who are short of a large block of the etock and want to cover at the low- est possible figures. @t.

COTTON LOSES GAIN MADE IN RALLY. Bulls Take Profits In See-Saw Mar- ket Affected by Weak Liv- erpool Closing. Weakened slightly by the lower Liver- pool market, the cotton options suflerea early losses of one to four points, but soon ruliied in sympathy with the tn-| creasing strength in the English trading, which showed fair gains over its open- ing quotations later in the day. The local bull cijque held. the nearby months firmly, realizing that the shorts cannot depend very much on an in- crease in the suppiy, as the growing crop Is later then usual this year. The late positions, however, again developed a little weakness on the more favorable vig advice from the South and some t taking by the longs. fading. “was quiet ‘and’ lacking its usual. excitement: Daniel J.
