Traders were bearish nnd were Inclined to sell stocks on the theory that they had failed to advance on good news like the in creased Norfolk dividend rind might conss- quentlr expect them to work lower. The old dividend rumors have been revived >oqt Brooklyn Rapid Transit. Around jlddsy the market was dull nnd feature- wRh a light and diminishing volume of business. Traders were scalping small turns, nnd gofajo of the usually most ac tive traders were not on the floor at all. Transactions were small. The Oates oarty wss active In the campaign against united States Steel. Selling by Atwood. Ylolett l Co., C. C. Cutes & Co., and Wolfe Hr#*., was snld to have a common origin.
