This was the sequel for an outpouring of ail stocks, those directly concerned break ins: violently after 2.30 o'clock.

So plainly manipulated was the strength in stocks that traders were not only loath to pursue it, but. follow'ed it up by putting out short sales. It was not a broad market, and the variations, except in the shares named, did not go beyond point. All eyes were on Union and when that stock crossed 149, against 146M: last night, the impression gained ground that an announcement favor able to the stock would be given out following today's directors' meeting. The news bureaus began sending out frequent bulletins, such as: "Report ers at the Union Pacific office have been summoned to Mr.

Harriman's office, where a statement is momentarily expected." Then there was a long pause on the tickers. Suddenly Union Pacific tumbled 212 points in as many minutes. It was nearly 2.15 o'clock when the cause of all the mystery was cleared away. At that hour came. the astonishing announcement that the company had recommended aif issue of $100,000,000 common stock.

On the heels of this came the news that Southern Pacific had recommended the issue of $36,000, 000 preferred stock. Forthwith the whole market started to fall. Union Pacific tumbled a point. Then followed Reading and all the active issues. The security market took fright when it studied the magnitude of tlieso issues, and realized that the money situation was such that these prospective demands would necessitate a radical revision of views of coming ease.

The first shock sent Union Pacific down 6, Reading from 113 to 108 and St. Paul 3 per cent. From these extreme breaks there was a partial re but the market ended very weak. In addition to recommending th3 $100,000,000 slock, the Union Pacific also Tenn. C.
