Today's stock market was a striking Instance of a fa vorite Wall street aphorism that tho expected never happens. Tho general expectation In Wnll street this morn ing was of a day of continued liquida tion nnd violent declines In prices. As a matter of fact the first smashing blow dealt to the market by the accu mulation of selling orders over Sunday which were executed nlmost simultan eously when tho president's gavel fell mado trie low prices of tho day. There wns gradual recuperation during tho whole of the remainder of the day ex cept for some fresh recessions at the close when the room traders were tak ing their profits on the day's rally. A scrutiny of tho day's net changes reveals some considerable net losses, but also very sharp net gnlns, while tho sharpest losses at the opening were reduced to unimportant proportions or entirely wiped 'out. The natural in ference from thcie events Is that a considerable portion of tho selling, which was necessitated by tho unfa vorable development of tho labor situ ation in the steel trade was effected last week while reassuring opinions were being doled out to the public of the extreme probability of the dispute reaching the open issue of a strike. But the unltlated bidders of tho United States steel holdings undisposed of mado a notable demonstration this morning In their urgent nttempts to unload and ncccpt their offerings. A considerable part of the liquidation In the steel stocks came from London, where In fact, declines below Satur day's New York parity of 4i for Uni ted States steel common nnd 6 for United States steel pieferred had been recorded before the opening here. The New York prices did not get ns low ns those for London, but the extreme opening decline for the common was 4Vi on running sales of 20,000 shares, and of the preferred, B points. Tho rally In tho market was very feverish and erratic until tho opening prices in the corn market disclosed the weakness of that cereal on the pros pects of rain In the corn belt. The continued weakness of corn was an In fluential factor In the sustained recov ery of stocks. The opening declines In the loading C.rangers nnd Pacific. ,Pouthwcsterns l cached from 3 to 5 points, Union Pacific lcr.dlng. Total sales, 970,800 shares. Tho railroad bond market was not so acutely affected as stocks and showed gains in tho late trading. Sales, par value, J2.i.'0,000.
