Rv United Prest NEW YORK. Dec. 23.—N0 trace of Monday's selling pressure was observed In the early dealings on the stock exchange today. Stocks ap- : peared to have finished correction of j their Inside position and resumption i of rise took place in many sections j of the list. General Electric continued to head '• the forward movement among the • industrials, duplicating Us high for i twenty years at 296%. Baldwin reached new high ground on the reW'overy at 123 and Cast Iron Pipe slumped a full point to 159. Irregularity characterised the late morning trading, but the general list continued to absorb profit-taking in remarkable fashion, considering the number of commission houses advising temporary retirement from the bull side. That the market should have displayed such confident action in the face of heavy trading was made more noteworthy by the fact that loans were called around noon. • resulting in a run up in call money to 4*4 per cent, the highest since May 26.

Shaneberger finally rul' and to vote on the Ayres resolution first. Goodrich moved to table the resolution nn.l then more argument ensued. A dozen stockholders rose to their feet seeking recognition.

Threatens to Resign Shaneberger declared If the Ayres resolution passed, he and the hoard of directors would certainty resign. “Go ahead and resign." someone said in the back part of the room.

Instead of getting from 10 to 20 cents on the dollar. Marott declared all authorities said the biiilding was worth at least SBOO,OOO. and there was no reason for selling for less.
