E E ON WARJHREAT Heavy Selling Appears in Second Day of European Crisis Fears for Peace Increase As Day Goes On NEW YORK, Sept 14. (API Fresh wave of selling swept over the stock market today, sending prices into another swift decline, on reports of clashes between Sudeten Germans and Czech soldiers. As the news of "incidents' In troubled Czechoslovakia came in over financial tickers. Wall Street seemed to relinquish an early show of hope for a peaceful settlement of the Issue and markets gave up a struggle to recover from the staggering selling blow they suffered In the final hour yesterday. Heavy Liquidation Gains of 1 to 3 points scored by representative issues In the first half hour of trading were converted into losses ranging to around five points before the selling lightened late In the session. Liquidation was the heaviest slnco last autumn, with transactions ap proximating 2,800,000 shares. The ticker frequently was behind the market, sometimes as much as 5 or 6 minutes, on the crest of successlvs selling waves but proceedings gener ally were orderly. Fears for Europe's peace appeared to Increase as the day wore on In the market places. Major commodities turned upward, led by another bulge In wheat. At the close of the Chicago pit, wheat was up to 1 cents a bushel on top of yesterday's sharp rice. Corn was up 74 to 1 cents a bushel, cotton near the close was 30 to 50 cents a bale htgher. Aided by reports of brisk report demand for the metal, copper shares fared better than most groups as the market's tone Improved toward the finish. Numerous Issues were off only fractionally on the day and ft few clung to part of the early gains. In cluding Kennecott, Brlggs and Inter national Nickel.
