NHW YORK. Sept. 14.-Tho stock market
took on a much more decided tone today.
Indications of llouldntlon gathered force
and In the late dealings the professional
traders fell upon tho market nnd offered
prices down nil around the room. They
met with considerable success In bringing
out shorts at the decllno and when they
covered on a moderate scale tho rallies
wero so feeble that they renewed the nt.
lack, making the close of tho market quite
ucuve aim easy, i ne coalers were Hie most
notable sufferers, though not on thq largest
volume of selling In tho list. New Jersev
Central fell SH points and Kackawnnna nntl
Reading tlrst preferred lost n point each.
Rut the weakness was quite genernl and
well distributed through the list, rnllronds
and Industrials suffering alike. Sugar en
Joyed n period of strength, but elnseit n
point below last night. The steel stocks
were generally heavy and a number of
them were off a point or over. The local
traction group, I'nlon Huk preferred, Atch
ison preferred. Missouri Pacific, Southern
Pacific. Burlington, Koulsvllle, Baltlmoro &
Ohio, Kaunas A Texas preferred und North
ern Pacific preferred were down from 1
to 1!4. nrowlng uneasiness over the ef
recta ot the coal miners' strike and feurs
rants rerv
of higher monev rates combined tn depress
prices, There were reports that the strike
would be settled before the curtnllment of
output proceeds far, but today's news that
miners whose supply of powder was ex
hausted were lying down their tools with
out buying fresh nupplle.t dispelled much
of the optimistic feeling
The financial world seemed to nwake gn
ernlly today to the realization that tho
cautious conservatism displayed by the
world's great banks was warranted by fore
knowledge. London discounts hardened
sharply and stocks were sold In New York
for London nccount. the sterling pxehange
rate recovering u fraction. The otllclul An
nouncement of the subscription by New
York bunkers to the Oermnn treasury bond
Issue of so.UpO.OoO marks (J2ii,0oo,on0) empha
sized the uneasiness over the effect of this
new demand upon the money market. The
forecasts of the weekly bank statement
shows that the banks have Inst to the sub
treasury since Friday Jl.lH.OoO. F.stlmntes
of the currency movement to the Interior
are confessedly conjectural, but the known
movements of money by express, according
to statements by the banks themselves. In
dicate that over $3.nc),00O has gnne out. This
Indicates n total loss of ciihh b the banks
of about $5.0oi),0ii0. The changes In the loan
Items nre obscure, but If the (Jermiin loan
operation figures in the statement n large
Increase In the loan item and n correspond
ing expansion of reserve requirements Is to
be counted In addition to the loss In cash In
eHtlmatlng the shrinkage of the surplus.
This rapid rate of Inroad upon the nvall
nble bank reserve precipitated the selling of
stocks. Possibly the reaction in the cot
ton market was nlso responsible for throw
UK "ome securities on the nmrket.
The bopd market did not share in the
late activity of stocks and continued pruc
11:? ,!i '""mailt. Total sales, par value,

the 6s 4 per cent In the bid price.

CATTLH 'I hero was only n Uscht run of
cattle here todav und tho fact that the
weather was bad had a tendency to bur'
the market. Chicago also reported n dull,
weak market and as a result there was not
much doing bete. There were only a few
loads of cornfed steers on saV and the
quality of the offerings was rather com
mon. Iiuvers did not take hold with much
life nnd It was a dull, weak market.
The supply of cows was very light, hurdly
enouch to make a test of the market.
Thnt being the case, pnckerei did not enre
whother thev bought uuvlhlng or not and
tho market wan dull, though sales were
made that looked about steadv. IHiH on
some bunches, however, were undoubtedly
lower.
Although the bultt of the offerings today
were no the feeder order, still there were
not enough to go around nnd trade wan
very s'ow. Yard traders hove n good many
cattle on hand and tho bad weather seemed
to shut off the demand from the country
toduy entirely, so they were very cautious
about buying more cattle so near the end
of the week. The market was very quiet
and bids were unevenly lower, though some
of the better erades may have brought
rlsht around steadv prices. The feeder
market on the last end nf the week Is not
upt to be very satisfactory from u seller's
standpoint.
There were not enough western beef cat
tle hero todny to attract the attention of
buyers, but as the market has been steady
oil tho week they would urobablv have
sold that way todiiv hid thure been any
good ones here. Thero were only a lew
cows and they sold from steady to n little
lower. Feeders were very djll and In the
majority of cases the sales that were made
looked lower than yesterday. Huyers were
not anxious for fresh supplies nnd took
th"m only nt a discount. Hepresentatlve

IIOOS--Thcro was n good ran of hogs
here today for a Friday, countlim what tin
carried over, but packers nil seemed to le
wanting fresh supplir. so that the mar
ket ruled fairly active nt the start Light
hogs did not sell quite as well on the wholo
today as thev did on Hie t.pelilng ltnikrt
yeetirday. but still they brought betier
prices than they did ut the clo.p estcrl.i.
Tho top of JS.2U wns ns good as the high
price yesterday, but the bulk of the lllit
weights sold from 5.07i, tn 15 lo. The pui
portlon of sales landing In these rnlumns
was not so great, though, hs on TI1urs1.1v,
so that todies market will average quit
u little lower Heavy hogs wero .lg.iln
rather neglected, nntl. as Chicago came
lower 011 tli" heavy weights, p.ieKnri look
off 11 little more on those again tod ty. The
bulk of them sold around 5 0)ii5o2'4, r.nd
the medium weights at I5.02's1i5.l5.
The Inst end of the market, when nothing
but the henvy sturf was left, was hard y
as good and sales were made that W"re
fully 6c lower than yesterday's close. The
market todav then, was 1. il tho way from
steadv on a few light weights to 5c liw-r
on the heavy stuff and the average cost o.'
nil the hogs will be a rhade loner lb in
yesterday.
As will be noted from tho tnble of live"
age price.'!, this Is the low point of the week
mid the average cot Is now b.i k .ibo.it
where It was on Thursday of Inst wci..

tame news nf the disaster In Texas and
henaatlonal reports that 1.000,000 bales had
been destroyed. At the New York Kxchange
trading was tar In excess of all previous
tccords nnd prices rose by bounds. Sub
sequently thero was less exaggerated re
ports from the south, but the maiket failed
to respond and middling uplands advanced
to 11c. The rise In the raw material caused
sharp advances In cotton goods. In one
week standard brown sheetings rose from
6.67c to 6c, wide blenched sheetings from au
to 2tc. Htnndnrd brown drills from 5.0ie to
5.87c und staple ginghams from 6c to 5.50c.

which Is expected to be reached next week.
A reduction lu keeping with other steel
products Is considered certain und then
the market will be on a settled basiH. Some
large makers tnvor $27.50 ns the new basM
