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.
