The excitement in financial circles caused by tha heavy buying of Reading shares yesterday, aalJ to be for control of the property, died out today, and the market resumed Its general weak tone. No explanation of the Reading incident waa obtainable officially today, but the denials of Harrtman Intrresis that they were In any way concerned were more Inclined to the opinion that party buying waa for the account of H. C. Frick. It baa been reported for some time that Mr. Frick sold out a considerable portion of hia around 150, and It was held to be natural that he should take back hia tack at the low prices of the past week. It was noticed also that 12a seemed to be the price limit at which the heavy purchases were made yesterday, and thli fact waa used as an argument against the report that stock waa bring taken for control. In the contest for Northern Pacific the shares were bought practically without regard to the price. Reading opened today at 122, or 2 point lower than laat night. The highest was 124 - hn lowest 118fc. and the last sale was made at 119. The sales were 736,500 231.900 shares. Yesterday shares changed hands. Wall Street Nervous.

Regarding hia views upon tbe general situation, he said: We all make mistakes: we some-lime- s have to back track. I've bad to do It. Mr. Frick was asked about the alleged deal In Reading. I know nothing about Reading except that It Is pretty good road, he said.
