REACTIONARY TENDENCIES
AGAIN PROMINENT TO-OAY
Active Issues in Stock Market Open al
Declines, Which Increase During the
First Half Hour—Some Securities
Show Gains
R,il Associated Press,
New York, Dei*. 30.—(Wall Street).
—Reactionary tendencies were again
prominent in to-day's early stock mar
ket, the ftftire issues opening nt de
clines, which increased during the ii
half hour. Southern Pacific fell a point
j to within a fraction of its minimum
j and Union Pacific, Heading and Amal
| gamated Copper lost almost as much,
i United states Steel also reflected re-
J newed preMiwe, as did. Interborouigih,
j pfd. Canadian Pacific, Pennsylvania
I and several of the less important metal
| issues were anions the few stocks to
show initial advances. Trading was
mainly in small lots and evidently o£
professional origin.
Following its source of the previous
j days, the market soon recovered from
I the heavy tone of the opening which
I affected almost a seore of issues, in
jcludiuig Missouri, Kansas and Tern*,
j pfd., most stock falling to its minimum,
I Trading was on a diminishing scale,
j however, the entire morning's business
representing but a meagre output. All
| initiative continued to come from the
j short interest, which showed increasing
j caution because of the scarcity of offer
| inge. News 'bearing upon the stool
! trade and general business was more en-
I couraging, while local conditions point
l ecl to greater monetary east, with the
advent of the new year. Bonds were ir
regular.
