New York, Bept. 24.—The decline at Fat- inlay's clono In fare of the reported larga ur res sc in surplus liank reserves was it lear enough Intimation to experienced eye# of what would happen this morning. A market which goes down on the good news can usually be regarded as a market In which more or less Urgent sllquldatIon Is In progress, and this was the view held generally In the early dealings this morn ing. The professional trading element which furnished the bulk of the business took their stand on the side of the declin ing prices, and It was their operations on the short side which were felt, as mnch na anything during the- forenoon. Call money opened the week at substantially the same average at which It ruled In the closing days of last week, the loans being arranged, ns a rule, nt 514 r*nt and under. There wan no easing to apeak of, however, In the market for time lonns, and this Is an Indication of the sltaatlou. The market wns under pressure for » large part of the first hour, with manipula tive Interest* doing much to force prices to low level*, apparently for tho purpose of Increasing their holdings of stock. There wns good buying of many stocks on all the declines, but rallies forced by this buying nre quickly lost In turd by selling from out- side sources, nnd the movement was lrrsgu- Inr nnd the tone unsettled. Reading was the market leader. Governments unchanged. Other bonds ars quiet. THE LONDON 8TOCK MARKET. .'nnadlnn I’nclflc Mile., Mil. and St. 1'nul.. Brie..
