Down Market Stages Aggressive Late Slide In New York Stocks
The last hour of trading saw the market plunge with a broad slump as support vanished for key issues. Amalgamated dropped about three quarters of a point amid downticks of 1 to 15 points from the prior close, many issues hitting new lows and the overall level the year’s lowest. Rumors of two large brokerage houses facing trouble circulated before the close, though unverified, with sentiment dampened by Pope Manufacturing’s failure and the lack of a reassuring statement from Oyster Bay.
