In xvhctii uniinril the downtall of coarse
itrnlnx , corn closing with a lom ofMUe
and outs UP. Provisions rulud dull and ,
I'losoil practically unehaiiKed.
A ilffllnc of liil nt Liverpool mill fa-
vornhlp eroji reports put wheat trailers In
n bearish temper at the opening , lllgli
ocean rates were nlso against the matket ,
I
und thu longs began to iinloail at the out- ;
net. There was not a gruat deal of short
pelllnc. however , as the break has been
fiirh for the List few lnyn that the trndo
wis rather cautious , but liquidation to
Htop further losses was Kdicrous and then
j
'
|
n nmall fraction and then for an
hour lielil at about "Oftc , with business |
during that time almost at a standstill. '
During the Utter part of the scsMon there
was a BllKht recovery In prices on cover- i
In i ; Induced by heavy clearances and n re !
port that India had eommem.'eil importing I
wheat. The advance did not hold , how- !
eVr , ( is nn Increase of UCT > GUOO bushels In '
lh world's visible supply since u week
IIKII started renewed liquidation , under
which December declined to 70'6c. Tim
rloso wns ut 7054c. Chicago received 123
cars , live of which craded contract. Min
neapolis and Diilnth got 1.100 cars , com ,
pared with 1,117 for the corresponding-
u year ago. Atlantic port clearances were
heavy , amounting to 1)41.000 ) bushels. Cash
demand here was slow , but New York re !
ported sixty boatloads disposed of for ex :
port. i
Corn ruled dull and weak. The wheat I
break hail some Inlluence , but a break of ,
Tdd nt Liverpool was also nn important i
factor. Elevator Interests nnd lontfs sold |
nnd the market got under puts , closing at i
the bottom. C'ash demand fair. World's I

HiillH Slnrl n ( 'iiiuiuiluriii but Do .Not
Carry It Out VlaroroiiNly ,
NEW YORK , Oct. 17.-Thore was a short-
lived dcmonHtratlon by the bulls in UIK
' .stock market today , but before trading was
I suspended the early gains were largely cur-
! talltd and In some cases more than wiped
I out.
out.Tin1 strength was attributed to various
causes. The reappearance this week upon
the lloor of the exchangeof several
operators who took a large part in last
spring's big bull market and who have bet'n
away on long summer vacations gave Home-
thing of a Illllp to the bullish sentiment.
The quiet tone of the. money market yes
terday ! n face of tlu1 operations Incident to
the exchange of old Central Pacific hecurl-
tles for new encouraged some sentiment
for n rise. There werr one or two stocks In
the list whli'h ' were notably strong from in
dividual causes which were rumored but
not authoritatively disclosed and which
Jielpiil to sustain prices. Among these
were Pullman and Great Northern pre
ferred. although the latter more than lost
the early gains" . The Baltimore & Ohio
stocks were conspicuously strong , the com-
1 mon fixing an t'Mreme ' 2t and the pre
ferred 2. Ijiirlede Gas continued its ad-
j vnncu nnd reached as hluh as SO. The
grangers. Ixiulsvlllc and Southern Pacltlc ,
i were quite well taken early In tltf day , up-
parently by pool Interests. The public was
, not In evidence at any time during the
i day.
Call money continued at fi per c it or be
low In xplto of the fuct that many dunks
report their ush still below the legal re-
i servo. Hut while t > he money rate did not
tighten a numbir of Industrial stocks , t-s-
pocUilly these classed as "green" In Wall
street parlance , showed signs of weakness ,
ua might happen If they wire t > ubject i to
| discrimination < by mon'V tenders In the
shifting , of loans. The Oltieojp stocks were
1 notably affected , the common dropplm ;
, nearly i S points and Hoslnp near the. lowest ,
j while the preferred lost 3',4. The Iron and
'steil I ' . stocks n" " grouii weakened simul
taneously , Steel nnd Wire leading with nn
e-xtreme decllno of 2 } , ' . others of the group
suffered to the extent of Ivfiwcon 1 and 2
points.
This unseHIt-d the hull movement nnd
wiped out pretty much all the gains which
had been established. Prices stnlggho up
ward again In the final dealings to a level
for the most p.irt slightly above last nlsht
and the snap seemed to be taken out of the
i movement. There was a warning rally In
I the rates for foreign exchange during th
.day which was not unheeded. Signals ot
distress were In evidence In the German
money markiKs and sterling exchange fell
sharply at the continental centers. Including
Paris. Discount rates In London responded
with an advance and exchange rates here ,
both on 1'arls qnd London , rose In sym
pathy. Add to this the fact that money Is
still going to the Intftrlor In considerable
volume .that government payments through
the suhtreasury are again falling off ,
promising a renewed drain on the money
market on account of revenue rocrlpts , nnd
that applications for anticipated payments
for government Interest contlnre on a
small scale , and the outlook for easier
money Is not promising- . This consideration
was suillclftit to give pause lo the efforts
to advance prices.
The bond market was moderately active
and prices Improved. Total sales , par value ,
$2,003OiX ) . United States bonds were un
changed In hid quotations.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : The markets
hero were quiet today In the absence of
var news1. ThtV were fairly llrm. Ameri
cans were the best section , opening above
parity and strengthening In t > 'io afternoon.
They closed at the top In the street. The
feature was Baltimore .t Ohio on New York
orders. Louisville fc Nashville and South
ern Pacific were also strong on arbitrage
buying. Spanish 4s and tintos were Btxidy ;
Anacondas , 9 % ; Utahs. 7 ; Hostotis. 1'i. The
hank sent 250,100 gold to Egypt and
bought 29,000 In bars. Money was a drug
and bills were easier. The Bank of Bel-
glum has raised Its discount rate from 4' ' < fc
to o per cent. The Hank of BiliRal has
raised Its rate from 7 to S.

BATTLE While there was a fair run of
cattle the proportion of beef steers , both
cornfed and westerns , was small. At the
same time there w.is a good demand on the
part of local packers , so that the market
was strong on everything desirable. While
the number was small , the quality of sorno
of the cornfeds was very good , so that the
| < sales show up well on paper , one bunch
being good enough to brlnj ? $0.30.
I Lows and heifers were. In fair demand and
, the market was reasonably active a.t just
, about thii same prices aa prevailed on yea-
, terday R market. As n rule the offerings
' changed hands In good season , moat ! every
thing being disposed of at an early hour.
Bulls were just about steady , the most of
them going to the feeders. As high as $4.50
wa.s paid for good cornfed bulls.
The best stockers and feeders sold nt
steady prices nnd the demand for the most
desirable was of very gratifying proper
tions. The common or mallum kinds of
stock and feeding cattle were slow sale ,
the same as always , and the feeling on
that kind. If anything- , was weak , It Is a
noteworthy fact that If the cattle are de
horned they seem to attract attention at
once , while cattle of the same quality with
the horns on will be neglected. Repre

HOC5S Chicago came lower again today
nnd the market at this point In sympathy
with the decline nt other market points
went lower. The market was Sc lower than
yesterday's general or average market.
IHiyers wanted heavy packing hogs at J4.Hi
while good mixed loads sold largely at JI.15
5i4.17hSome very good medium weights
went us high as $1.20 , and light mixed and
good light weights brought $1.20rl.25. ( ( As Is
very apt to be the case on a down market ,
the movement was not particularly active
for the very good reason that sellers were
slow about taking off as much as buyers
wanted and were inclined to hang on for
the very last cent that could be snuoezcd
out. Still the hogs kept selling and the.
pens were cleared In reasonable season.

SHEEP Receipts showed up well on
paper this morning , but a considerable pro
portion of the arrivals consisted of Btock-
ers nrtd feeders , so that there was no sur-
pins or rat sturr. At tbe same time me
local packing demand was good and the
most of the offerings that were at all de
sirable changed hands In good season. The
market could be quoted as steady at the
very least , and possibly a little stronger on
the common kinds. Feeders were In pretty
fair demand nnd the pens were well cleared
before the final close.
