STOCK SELLING HEAVY
RUMORS OF DUTCH COMPLICATIONS
UNSETTLE MARKET.
Pressure JEx tends to All Section of List
and Cloning; Price, Are Ma
terially Reduced.
NEW TORK. March 18. A new and more
complicated phase of the international sit
uation was injected Into today'a heavy stock
market. Rumors of a protest by Holland
at the proposed commandeering of Dutch
ships by this Government formed the basis
of heavy selling. Important rails and in
dustrials reacted 1 to 3 points and some
specialties considerably more, the selling
assuming wide dimensions in the final hour.
Dealings In the early part, of the session
were nominal to the point of insignificance.
Many stocks ordinarily classed among the
leaders were scarcely quoted until well to
ward the close. Canadian Pacific was heavy
to weak throughout, extending last week's
severe reversal by 3 points. Other tranft
continentals, also grsin carriers and coal-
era, were down 1 to 24 points with shares
01 eastern roads.
Among specialties. American Sumatra to
bacco, which may be adversely affected by
the Dutch situation, broke 4ht points. Sugars
and oils were swept Into the recedincr tide
ot ine last nour. yieiaing.2 to points.
luiwu oiaiee Bteei was immune from the
setback most of the time, but finallv suc
cumbed to pressure, scoring an extreme loss
ot 114 points. other steela and kindred
equipments relinquished mid-day gains of 1
o points, closing at variable net losses.
Sales amounted to 485.000 shares.
Bunds, both rails and Industrials, were
sympathetically depressed, and liberty issues
also reacted. Total sales, par value, aggre
gated $2,775,000.
United States bonds, old laane. wr un
changed on call.
