OTHERS WERE LOWER Trend Generally, Downward Up to Noon, When a Rally Set In. New York. May 22.—The market to day hinged entirely on the conclusion generally drawn by professional opera- torn that after a week of steady de cline, prices were entitled to some sort of a rally. Nothing; happened In the outside news to produce any change in speculative sentiment. The New York Central shares and Reading were especially weak among tho railroad list, and Copper and Smel ters among the Industrlaln. Otherwise, the low figures of yesterday were real ised and In some cases exceeded, it was not a particularly favorable symp tom that the volume of business was much smaller on the rally than It had been on the decline, but on the other hand. It was cncouring that the forced liquidation, which had so upset the market yesterday, wns vet*y much di minished. New York. May 22.—The stock market opened Irregular.
