MARKET SHAKEN
NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, March 10.
The financial editor of the "New York Times" states that anxiety over the warlike course of events in Europe shook the financial markets today.
Foreign currencies fluctuated violently, first falling, then recovering. Stocks, after moving uneasily most of the day, fell under a sharp burst of selling over the last hour that knocked representative issues as much as four points downward. There was, however, no disposition to look for wholesale withdrawal of foreign money from this market.
The opinion of most bankers interviewed was that the first effects of the increased war talk would more likely be to send additional foreign money here; yet Germany's action had been sudden and disturbing.
