RAINS AFFECT THE PRICE OF CORN That Grain, with Oats, "bowed aa AArtirr, While Selllnc Pronubt ) Dawn the Price, of Pro fit ; Tltlont Generally. CHICAGO, Oct. 7. When t shorts were driven to cover today by the rains In the west and northwest. The demand from this source caused a firm undertone, the Iipcpmlipr option closing "jc higher. De opmher corn whs up Vf'c anil oats jc better, but provision were again weak, the January products cloning from Bliic to 20c lower. Everything considered, wheat prlees were Strong. dip largely to the unfavorable weather throughout the entire wheat belt, although smaller receipts added to the gen eral apprehension among shorts. Opening prices were firm, with December a shade to Hffc higher at 77i77p, notwith standing the rather Indifferent tone of cables. With some Improvement In the cash demanil and on covering by shorts, the price advanced early to 77Vttc, but later sold off again on prospects of more favorable conditions, the weathpr mnp showing clear skies tomorrow for the west and northwest. The selling pressure was augmented by a private crop estlmnte of over TlH.OUO.Ooo bushels for the crop of the current year. Commission houses were food buvers late In the day and the nuir et rallied to about the opening figures, December closing c higher at 777A'qc. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 407,31) bushels. Primary receipts were BtW.OiiO bushels, against l.osn.tut) bushels a year ego.

Corn ruled llrm, Influenced mainly by the h'tvy rains throughout the corn belt. There was persistent seUlng by provision Interests, but shorts were active buyers and there was also some demand from eralpers. The besJt buying was In Decem ber, which showed a fiilr gain, but May was offered freely and lost the early ad vance. After selling between 44"4jifT44-n, and 4V4c, December closed itTic higher at 4tVc. iocal receipts were 374 cars, with 63 of contract grade. Oats were firm along with the strength In other grains. There was some selling early on the big crop estimate, but a fair scattered demand, Influenced by the wet weather and smaller receipts, prevented anv decline, and the close was at slightly higher figures, December being up c at 8''.'c, after ranging between 3uTat4 36o and Hiic. local receipts were 143 cars. Loss of confidence among outside holders of provlsloas was bear Impression In form of general llotildatlon of long property. Tho selling was heaviest In October lard and ribs, which showed losses of 45c and 65c, respectively. Packers apparently made no effort to support the market.

Interest t enters Aronnd t nltcd States Steel, with Many in Doubt. NEW Y'ORK, Oct. 7.-The stock market moved In a r.ither bewildered way todsy. but the dealings presenied little more than a groping of nrnfessiomtl traders to as certain the sentiment of the real holders of stocks. The reduction in the steel divi dend brought In some selling orders, but they were all accepted, at first, by one house which was credited with acting for banking Interests connected with the cor poration. Support was accorded to this stock, especially the preferred, during the rest of the day and the personnllty of tlis briers employed for this purchase caused a surmise that the market management of the slocks hail come back to the hands that were entrusted with the first flotation. The common stock was forced down over a point at one time, and the general list was heavy after the opening firmness. The marked weakness of Amalgamated Copper whc.se loss was more than three points at one time, had a decided sympathetic effect on the general lists. Traders who sold the stock pointed to the fact that as an In dustrial on a 2 per cent dlvldent basis it was too high compared with United States steel, now on the same basis. But the In ferences drawn from the movement of the stock ns to the market attitude of the large capitalists controlling this corporation were or much more erreel on sentiment man any dlvldent comparisons. The accompanying weakness of St. Paul gave emphasis to this view of the market attitude of the Stand ard nil party, and marie the contrast strong er with tne support in evidence 101 a number of the Morgan stocks, including the steels. Erie was also notably firm, not withstanding the depression amongst the coalers as 11 group. Assertions were heard that the coming cold weather demand offers little prospect of an absorption of the accumulation of anthracite. Erie had the advantage of its excellent annual report and the annual report of Louisville & Nashville and the September showing OI New York Central, helped to reinforce con fidence as to the general railroad situation. The late strength In Atchison seemed to bo based upon the declaration of the regu lar quarterly dividend of one per cent and to the growing sense of security as to the safety of the corn crop. The Insufficiency of dividend considerations to hold prices of the industries was shown In the case of American Car, which fell a point In spite of the retention of Its one per cent quarterly dividend. The preferred stock also fell three points with a recovery of one. The decrease in net earnings for the past quarter of $4,339,487 compared with the nrAannnHlna. nimrlPT nf last VPHT Ol corresponding quarter of last year of United States Steel corporation ana inn ianiog mi of 1.114.265 tons. In the unfilled orders on hand for the same period, had a depressing effect on all the iron and steel stocks and, Indeed, upon sentiment ss a whole as being the most conclusive evioence 01 toe ex tent to which commercial reaction has al ready extended, and the danger of Its still further extension. Money conditions are growing unmls takeabl'y easier and the demand for com mercial paper for New York account is reviving decidedly. Time money Is in In creasing sunply while the demand at pre vslllng rates Is almost wholly normal. The Increasing ease of money Is having Its effect In the growth of some Invest ment demands for railroad bonds of a good grade.

T Th market for cof fee futures opened steady at an advance of I to It) pulula on kwiter turopeaui ca- bles, smaller Interior receipts, renewed cov ering and a further demand from outside sources. Ijiter. the sdvanclng tendency was accelerated by csbles from llrasil, stating that the receipts had not been be ivy enough or sufficiently general to greatly relieve the crop situation, and prices responding to this were advanced to a level net of 15 to 20 points higher, and closed steady on that basis.

Coliwn Market. NEW YORK, Oct. 7 The cotton market opened firm with an advance of KnlO points on the better cables than expected and ex pectations of less favorable weather. In cluding lower temperatures In Texas, ac companied by rains. After the call some of the months showed a little further gain, but the receipts for the day were heavy and there was won a renewal of bear pres sure that eased off to within a few points of yesterday's finals. Reports were being circulated, however, that spinners had been attracted into the market at the decline and private advices Indicated a hteadier tone In the southern markets. In addition to this. It was argued that the decline had been rather more rapid than the condition of the crop ns reported warranted, and that a considerable short Interest had undoubt edly been accumulated that might sooner or Inter turn for profits. At any rate, the declining tendency was of but short dura tion and prices before midday were work ing upward with several prominent Inter ests heavy buyers. Ths advance wns en couraged by rather lighter estimates for tomorrow's receipts at leading points and further unfavorable advices respecting the crop bull room turned for profits, a net gain from 17 to 20 points, and the market in the early forenoon eased several points from the best. It was rallied again before the close by more or less general covering led by houses with southern connections, and closed steady 11 to 10 points higher. Sales were estimated at 5UO.O00 bales.

The de mand was In good shape all around and as a result the market held up In very satis factory manner. Owing to the heavy run, however, the day was well advanced Defore even the bulk was disposed of. There were quite a few cornfed steers In cluded In the offerings and some of them were good enough to sell as high as $5.60. It would be safe to quote anything at all desirable fully steady. The commoner grades of course were not quite as ready sellers, but still they: brought about yester day's prices. The cow market started out about steady, as there were not manv on sale at the open ing of the market, and all the packers had to have a few. When the later trains ar rived, however, buvers shut down and the market closed rather slow and around a dime lower. There have been a good many cows on sale nil the week and that fact of course rave buyers an excuse for pounding the market. ... . . Bulls, veal calves and stags did not show enough change from yesterday to be worthy of mention. There were a good many stock cattle shlpned to te countrv yesterday and ss n result speculators were pi! anxious for freh supplies this morning. The market on the better grades was active and fully steady. The commoner grades did not move.ns freely as the choicer kinds, but still there wss no quotable change. ..... Receipts of western cattle Included about the usual proportion of beef steers and the quality was about the same ss It has been, and that Is rather common. There was not much change, thoneh. In the market, as anvthlng at all delrsble sold steady, with others slow and weak the same as usual. Ranre cows opened about steady, hut closed around a dime lower.

The market here declined low lic as compared with yesterdav s averaae At the start a few hogs sold about a dime lower, but, the Fame as yesterday, after the first round or two packers laid down and the ciose was very slow and fully 15c lower. The late arrivals, If they had any weight to them at all, had to sell down to $5.3'). The bulk of the heavvweierhta sold from $5.30 to $5.40. medium weights $6.40 to $5.45 ana tne ngnts irom ta.4a to $5 65. It was a very slow, mean market from the sellers' standpoint from start to finish. Today's decline takes the market to the lowest point reached since September 3. As compared with Monday the average cost Is lust about 25c lower. Representative sales No. 24.. .. 2.. 48.. 68.. At.

The same as has been the case for some time past the bulk of the stuff had to go for feeders and as packers nil had liberal orders the market on mutton grades was active and steady. This was true of both sheep and lambs. What the killers did not want feeder buyers bought up at fully steady prices If the quality was at all satisfactory. There were a good many buye.s on hand and the bu'.k of the better grades was dlnposed of In good season. The common grades of feed ers the same as usual were more or less neglected, but still even those sold at about Bteady prices aa compared with yester day.
