FINANCE LOSSES AND CAINS FEATURE THE STOCK MARKET TO-DAY War Specialties Fall Back Again at the Outset of Trading, Then Rising and Declining Alternately Trading Was Relatively Light By Associated Press. New York, May 4.—Wall Street.— War specialties fell-hack again at the outset of to-dav's trading, pressed steel car losing 6 1-2 points and the declines ot 1 to almost 2 points in General Electric, American Locomotive, Bald win and National Lead. U. 8. Steel yielded half a point on heavy offerings. Standard railways were mostly lower while minor stocks of that class made slight gains. Coppers were variable. There were partial recoveries before the end of the first half hour. The market repeated its course of the previous session, rising and de clining alternately, with indications of further selling at every favorable op portunity. Foreign offerings were not a factor, although Steel AnjJ Coppers were sold for European interests in moderate Amounts. Trading was rela tively light, becoming increasingly dull towards midday, when representatives shares showed general gains. Indus trials and the miscellaneous group pre sented a mixture of losses and gains, motor issues being especially strong. Bonds were irregular. Philadelphia froduce Market Philadelphia.
