LIQUIDATION OF STOCKS IS STILL AT ITS HEIGHT This It Shown By The Continu ed Docline in Markets , Last Week RALLIES FAIL TO STAND; END NOT YET IN SIGHT All Idea Of A Sustained Up ward Movement At ThW Pe ■ riod of Adjustment Has Gen erally Bean Abandoned. Boat Issues Unable To Stand Out Against Downwstrd Trend. New York, Nov. 14.—The continu ed decline in the stork market last week, interrupted by a rally that lack ed the vigor and extent that many had bopod to am, showed emphatical ly that tl« process of liquidation of securities was still uncompleted and that the readjustment of pricqs of securities to meet the readjustment la trade and financial strain was still at Its height. How far this liquidation must continue before the end can ha depended upon to have corns there la no tailing. in any event we Hopes gj muj brokers and traders that a ball mar hat oa rails would be pmaUbla while a bear market was going on in the industrials failed of realisation—for the time being at least. Whatever may be said of the intrinsic worth of the railroad shares, particularly of the old dividend payers, the fart is that the liquidation in industrials be came so drastic that even the best of stocks could not stand out against it. RaBr Probably Artificial Although on every hand there is an effort to determine whether or not the bottom has been reached for ao curitiaa dr how far off the bottom may be, there hat not yet hc«n any substantial alga that It has been re alised. great though the fall in prices has keen since election. The rally that came In the middle of the week followed what in some quarters was believed to be organised and artificial support to prevent the decline from bosoming demoralised. It was pointed ' out that the stock bought for the purpooo of npportiag the market was . met tafcam- assay, but would be lor ' * hale again as soon aethers developed vantage. And thp outpouring of stocks on Friday gave evidence that the supply was not small. All idsa of a sustained upward movsment at this lime has generally been abandoned. There are these out standing factors that militate against a res) advance: 1. Shortage of funds available for stock market purposes 2. Thi Indoitriil and riimmaff ial reacting. Mousy Situation Debatable Call money rates. It Is true, deelm- , -ed on Thursday afternoon to 7 per cent and the belief was encouraged that the peak of the money strain had been passed. That might be de bated. The argument of those erne are counting on a betterment of the •. financial position would be sound were the times normal, but it is not safe to jump too hastily at conclu sions in such a time as this. It may well be that the money strain will be over in a few weekalt may be that ordinary demands of the crop.move ment season have been supplied and . that the moving of crops into market will bring about the expected release of credits. It may be that ths wide spread liquidation of merchmndiae ia snaking headway satisfactory to tha banka, and that commercial loans are being paid off as speedily as eguld be wishtd. On the other bend it is to be oh tarved that ths liquidation that has thus far boon accomplished would have been looked to a few months ago as probable assurance of nosy money. But the fact Is, with ail ths liquida tion in mercantile lines that had ta ken place with all the liquidation In commodities there has been little eas ing of money rates thus far. Time money and call money both remain tight. Tha situation has not been clearing op as fast as could hsva been wished and ths security had to suf fer to tha extent that it has been in a position to release funds: Oase Cause Of Tight Mousy One factor making for continued high rates is that the banks are bur dened with a vast amount of float lag credit extended to - foreign pur chasers, chiefly la Kerope — an e maunt that hat been aa high aa 4 billion thia la an unfunded debt car Tied Id the (hope of time leans to foreign purchasers of American goods.

Order* calling for an investigation of allagwd discrimination in the dis tribution of coal ears were entered on November I, but commission of ficials explained today that thu prexi of other business had prevented the beginning ol the Inquiry. The investigation which will bo made by Chairman Clark and Com miraioneriw’oucr and Aitcheeon, is expected to lake the form either of direct examination of the books and papers of the railroads and shippers prior to a bearing or the holding of a public hearing at which such per son* wonld be required aa the com; mission might direct. The latter course probably will be adopted, of ficials said, and a data will ba set for the hearing as poo a as thu crowd ed conditions of the com mission's docket will permit. Findings of the commission, it was explained, will be published In the official report of the result of the investigation. Any developments war ranting prosecution would he In the hands of the attorney general who would proceed on the basis of the report. _ REASONS FOR FALL IN VALUE OF FRANC Financial E apart a Apm Ex change Rat* ia Mad* la New York; Opinion* Paris, Nov. 13.—Reasons sdvsncsd for the fall in the valor of the Prune and the rise in that of the dollar and the pound stsrling, the most import sat subject now being diseased on The Bourse, have been assembled by the Paris branch of the London Daily Mai], which has been investigating the question aad has obtained the opinions of various persons active in French finance.
