The stock market started out to-day with the supposition, apparently, that conditions were adjusted to await the uews from Mr. Harrtman's sltk chamber without further feverish ex citement. The news ot the financier's death came Just thlrty-flve minutes after tre stock f.xc.ianae closed. Th early dealings we re on a small basis and prices were only slightly depressed and showed a capacity to rally easily. The protective measures in the market were relaxed later and when the dally crop of rumors and contradictions began to be received the gradual sag which had set In was con verted into a precipitate decline.

Support seemed to be withdrawn and the market left to take care of itself. This was more notable since the volume of the selling was not large and appeared such as might have been taken care of by the powers which have appeared as supporters of prices in the recent past. The conclusion was drawn that It had been decided by the backers of the market that preparations for an expected shock would be more effective by not attempting to hid prices artificially at the advanced level. It was i.oted with interest that an active borrowing demand existed for Union Pacific stock In the loan crowd, where the operators short of stocks assemble to fill their temporary requirements by borrowing stocks for delivery. Tha approaching annual meetln gof the Union Paclflc, It was said, had stimulated a borrowing demand for the stork for purposes of representation.

The special weakness of the Gould group was due to the supposed Interest Mr. Harrlman has shown In the long contemplated financial plan for these properties, and which, It was feared, might be prejudiced by the new conditions. Professional liear selling was a conspicuous factor and the demand from tlilS element to cover shorts worked the substantial rally from the lowest prices of tl.e any. The break resulted In carrying prices considerably lower than were touched In the slump on Saturday, August Total salts shares. THE 8TOCK MARKET Bales.
