DECLINE EMBRACES THE ENTIRE LIST Opening ot Exchange Signal for Another Drive U. S. STEEL THE SUFFERER Some of the So-Called Gilt-Edged In dustrials Experience Material Losses—Market Movement Narrow—Close Steady. New York, September ID.—The opening of business on the stock exchange today was the signal for another aggressive drive against United States Steel com mon and the Industrial list generally. So fierce was the attack that the decline in the prices embraced practically the entire list and many stocks found low levels, steel common going off a full point. Some of the so-called gilt-edged industrials registered severe losses, a case In point being Westinghouse Elec tric, which sold off over 20 points, with a loss of almost half as much in the preferred stock. Other issues that bore the brunt of the opening onslaught Included Republic steel preferred, Sloss Sheffield, United States Rubber preferred, and Amalga mated copper. The railroad list also de clined. St. Paul, Rock Island, New York Central, Canadian Pacific, Chesapeake and Ohio, Norfolk and Western and Erie second preferred, all making mate rial recessions. The break in the raiiers, however, probably resulted from the heavy selling of Atchison stock for a western firm which was recently promi nent on the buying side. The demonstra tion against steel common was begun by a specialist who offered the stock at 17% and then down another fraction. Bear traders then took a hand and suc cessfully hammered it down to 17. The market steadied before the end of the first hour, some support being given to steel and other industrials. The amount of short covering was also very , extensive. After a brief reaction, prices again steadied and following the publi cation of the bank statement gradually improved to the close, which was steady and moderately strong. The one favor able feature of the statement was the contraction of more than $4,500,000 in loans. A survey of the wfeek on the stock exchange shows that In most es sentials It was a rertiltlon of the pre vious one. The market movement was again narC^w and always under profes sional control, the outside demand for stocks being too small to merit serious consideration. United States 2s advanced 1 per cent: the old 4’s registered Vz per cent; and the new 4s Vfc per cent. The old 4s coupon declined % per cent as compared with the closing call of last week.
