moderate selling today. Initial price wera
Irregular though better In the main; but
the entire list become heavy during the mM
HeBston when pressure upon the leaders was
moat marked.
There were oilier adverse factors, sucn
as tha further deureclatlon In Italian ex-

quoted at 740. Forecasts also Indicated a
fairly large local cash loss for me wbpk,

the general decline, though In variable de
gree. Nhlpplngs again were heavy on me
further coinprexllles respecting f no Ameri-
n marina situation, but the decline or
points In Allan tic, Oulf and west Indies
probably resulted from the failure of tits
directors to der-lare the dividend on that
lock. Amoni the favorable incidents of the
day was the Pout hern I'aclflc statement tr
January showing a net Increase of 2.S26,0')0
and the lilt report nf the ioosc-w nes dis

extreme recensions ranged from 2 to 10
points, coppers and motors 1 to s, sugsrs,

With the exception of leading coalers, all

the greater number of tratlere took the

headway teemed to be made by dealers,
who urged that British curtailment of Im
