Icings wero i otlt takers Saturday anil they were ready f i morn today. The news had the effect c ' prodding them along and. to a degree, - ' lessening tho demand from certain sec- ns, although the northwest was still dlted with paying good prices hero To 'ike. up the home shortage. For a time Mowlrs the opening the market held adlly over 8Tc. Tho hammering by hold i shortly before noon, however, begnn to I. July sagged to S5r ami then, all In a v minutes, broko down to SSc. At S."o p-loss orders In large numbers were irlieil for Hie llrst time since the recent nrivnnco bean and there was such a rush t'i sell that between Sc and the bottom there was scarcelv a check to the decline.

MOV12MKNTS OP STOCKS AXP IlO.Mli Consltlernlile Specnlii t Im- Activity nnd Fliioltiiitlons Were Frequent. NEW YORK, Juno 25. Thero was con siderable speculative activity In tho slock market today and the fluctuations In prices wero quite wide nnd frequent. Tho net changes nro mostly small, so that the ra suit of the day's trading Is not conclusive us to the turn' In prices. Tho market was exceedingly Irregular all day and at times very much confused. Tho opening depres sion In sympathy with London, where tho Chlneso outbreaK had an unfavorable et fvet, was generally overcome. Prices then broke with some violence, the bear nttnek being directed ospuclally against B. & O. Continued pressure was In evidence! also against Brooklyn Transit. II, & O. is one of those stocks which havo been most ad vanced in price on predictions of n divi dend disbursement nnd whlspprs were cur rent today that the declaration of tho divi dend would bo nt least deferred. Tho stock suffered to the oxteut rif 4 points nt tho lowest level. Brooklyn Transit sold to 19, which was 2 below Saturday's level. In sympathy with 'this nfcuto weakness tho whole market sold ofT and apparently the liquidation of last week was renewed In force. But.the mnrket gave evidence later of be ing oversold and tho bears began to ubsorb stocks to cover their short contracts. The result was u general recovery of tho earlier losses. But thero was nothing like demoral ization amongst the bears, the covering movement being conducted in n well or dered mnnner. Tho bulls attempted to ex tend tho advance, but prlcos had not risen more than n fraction nbovo last night's level except In Brooklyn Transit, when the demand from shorts diminished to utmost nothing, The dribble of liquidation was sufficient to drive prices downward again and they were only partly arrested Ht about last night's level, whoro tho move ment became very Irregular nt the closing, The principal Influence In causing th doubtful mood amongst tho professional bears was the sharp break In wheat. Tho fact that tho break was lnrgely due to technical causes and to a pressuro to real ize on the part of an overextended long Interest did not seem to lessen Its effect,. In spite of the continued reports of the damago wrought to crops in the northwest, Tho stock market was apparently as much oversold as the wheat market was over bought and professional realizing caused tho renctlnn In both cases. The ivpprehenslnn caused by the Satur day bank statement was also soothed to snmo extent. Tho conviction gained ground that tho sharp decline In cash reserves was dun to 'preparation for tho withdrawal of government deposits, and, nosslbly, to the placing of bids for the New York Cltv stocks, which was awarded today to the amount of over J3,ono,000. The nppnrent clearing of the money situation abroad was a source of relief to speculative depres sion. Tho opinion expressed by a director of th.o Reichs bank In an Associated Press dispatch from Berlin was a potent Influ ence, In relieving uneasiness regarding the situation In Berlin.

Cotton Market. NEW YORK. Juno 25. Tho sensatlonnl bull movement begun some ten months ago culminated on the New York Cotton ex change this morning when prices fell some 30 ;olnts under u terrific drive of bulls to unload 11 grist of long cotton purchased on the udvunce. It has been many months slnco the shorts here, In the south and abroad have been so effectually rounded up, but Inasmuch as the primary cause foi covering was bona tldn Influences and not manipulation, the uplift was scored with comparative ease. For several weeks bad crop reports have been pouring In from nearly alt parts of the belt and tho Euro pean bear faction has been restless. The public manifested an Inclination to buy nnd lending operators here finally made a bold stand on the bull side. Day after day prices climbed with a dizzy rush. This morning exceptionally strong English ca bles and particularly bad reports sent prices on first sales 20 to 25 points unwara and forced the few remaining bears 10 seek sater ground. The rise proved too fast for ono house Dennis Perkins A Co and at midday Its suspension wus reported from tho rostrum. Tho announcement nt once :reuted distrust In the bull ranks, It belli:: fiwred that the concerns might be Involved, and in u frantic effort to unload prices were pounded down 10 points before tho final gong sounded, Whereas through out the west, southwest nnd Europe had bought on tho opening rise, representatives of these represents were heavy sellers. Once more jubilant bears hammered the entire list and called attention to better weather nrospects and good crop reports from Texus, A tumblo of Ic In wheat also operated as n stimulant on the selling movement. Conservative estimates of the day's transactions placed the amount at considerably over l.uOO.OOO bales, tho trades mado In niBny Instances reaching many thousands ot bales in a single operation. Tho feeling ufter the close of 'Chungo was weak, the crowd anticipating u bull panic In Liverpool tomorrow and a less bullish weekly government at noon Tuesday than heretofore anticipated.

This constituted tho bear element of the market and resulted in prices nt this point being 51Y10c lower, morp often 10c than 5c. Sellers were game, and they worked hard to hold up the market, and were not entirely unsuccessful, as the prices paid were still very good as com pared with other market points. Thero Is no denying the fact that cattle sold very high here last week as compared with other market points, owing to tho very active demand, so that buyers were not unreasonable In asking for a concession todRy. Owing to the reluctanro of sellers to make as much reduction ns buyers were asking the market was slow from start to finish, and still thn most of the cattle were disposed of In good season. The decline on cows nnd heifers was Just about the same rs on beef steers. In other words, the market was generally 10c lower unless It might be on something very good, Bulls are also a little lowpr than last wok. Hardly enough stookers 'or feeders were on sale to really establish quotations. The few here changed hands at prices that did not look much different from the close ot Inst week, but it Is safe to say that the general mnrket Is 25o lower than it was n week or ten days ago.

HOGS For a Monday the rereipts of hogs were quite largo at all the selling points nnd a slight decline took place all nlong tho line. The market here was 24i Co lower. Buyers started out offering as 11 rillo J5,07Vi&5.10, but sellers seemed to have a pretty good notion of values and wero not Inclined to yield n point without n struggle, The result was that the market was slow, sellers holding back and only letting their hogs go when they could get J5.10 for good mixed loads, such as brought J5.12!. on Saturday. It turned out to be simply a J5.10 market, the average of all tho sales belns a Hlnule lower than the closo of last week. The 'extreme close was veri' slow and fully 5c lower. In splto of the weakness in the market prices wero the highest for a Monday this month. One week ago tho average price was J5.03, two weeks ago J5.00 and three weeks ago J4.85.

Ono car consisted or fed ewes, while the balance was mnde up of grass sheep or yearling, only part of them good enough to suit klllern, Some fair grass yearlings sold for $1.50, or 25c lower than was paid for somo of the same lot on Thursday of last week. This will ClVe nn Idea of the amount of the decline that has taken place In the last few days at this point. As remarked on Saturday, tho weakness In the market Is due to the very large receipts of sheep at most all market points. During last week thero ar rived nt tho four "markets 121,000 sheep, or 33,800 more thun tho previous week Thus far there has been but little de. mand for stock or feeder sheep, as It Is tlll too early for farmers or feeders In this section to buy. loiter on n very good demand for that kind of stuff Is antici pated.
