READING ONLY IMPORTANT
ISSUE TO LOSE AT OPENING
All the Other Prominent Stocks, as
Well as Numerous Inactive Ones,

Now York, March 25.—Wa1l Street.
—Reading was the only issue of im
portance to show a loss at the opening
of to-day's market, all the other promi
nent stocks, as well as numerous inac
tive ones, recording gains. These
ranged from mere fractions to a point
or more, Baltimore and Ohio and Ijouis
ville and Nashville as well as Third
Avenue, making greatest advances.
General Motors rose two points, but
specialties were less conspicuous than
heretofore. Prices were inclined to
ease by the end of the first half ex
cept Bethlehem Steel, which roso a
"j-point.
| Trading fell away during tho morn
j ing, dealings in the first hour being
j little more .than half of yesterday's
! total of 200,000 shares. Such irregu
: larity as tho course of prices denoted
I was ascribed mainly to recurrent for
eign selling of Union PaciUc and Unit
ed States Steel. In the main, how
ever, the list was distinctly firm, some
jof the international group, notably
i Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and
i Baltimore and Ohio, selling above yes-
II terday's high quotations. According
1 to report the professional element had

plied with only what water is left aft
er the coal company takes what it
wants. A hearing was set for next
