Further reactionary tendencies were manifested on the resumption of trad ing to-day, although declines, except a few specialties, were limited to frac tions. Rails were again the heaviest features, but United States Steel was under pressure. Initial offerings of Erie, Southern Pacific, Mexican Petro leum and Westinghouse were moder ately large. Steel sold at 83 ! *», a de cline of one-eighth from yesterday's close. but immediately rose a half point. Metal Issues were irregular with I more loss than gains. Secondary prices showed slight recoveries on diminished j dealings. Selling was renewed on the first re covery, with increased offering of rail road issues. Erie and Canadian Pacific being especially prominent. St. Paul, whose directors are expected to take action on the dividend to-day, also reflected liquidation, with recessions in Reading and other leaders. Union Pa cific stood out for its relative strength and Mercantile Marine, Pfd., and Ameri can Can were among the most stable features, Lower levels were reached all around In the second hour, when Steel fell to 82'5» and other important stocks yielded their early rise. Feeble rallies occurred at noon. Bonds were steady. NFAV YORK STOCKS Chandler Bros. & Co.. members New York and Philadelphia Stock Ex changes, 3 North Market Square.
