tions Foreign Exchange
Kates Kecover.
NEW YORK, Feb. 17. Tha apprehension
and uncertainty attending International con
ditions wre once more -potent factors In
today's dull and heavy stock market.
Trading was ultra professional and mainly
on the short side. In the early session, that
faction renewed Its attacks on leading
shares, which fell a point or more, coalers
showing great weakness. Later prices made
gradual recovery, but in the final hour sell
ing of American Smelting in large volume
brought renewed unsettlement. the closing
being at or near the lowest level of the day.
Baltimore & Ohio, New Haven and South
ern Railway preferred were among the
stocks that fell to new low, or repeated
former minimum quotations. Some of the
dormant specialties yielded 1 to 3 points,
while Mexican petroleum lost 614 points
Foreign exchange gave less reason for
concern, rates on London indicating a tem
porary cessation of the enormous offerings
of bills which caused the recent unprece
dented decline.
Trading was narrow In London, Americans
being In ltBht demand. New York Central
and Canadian Pacific were among the heavi
est issues in that market.
The local bond market moved in sympathy
with stocks, some of the speculative Issues,
as well as low-priced railways, declining
sharply. Total sales (par value) aggregated
2.O!W.0O0. United States coupon 3s and reg
istered s lost per cent on call.
