NEW TORK. Oct. 17.-The hailing and I
Irregular movement of prices of sloes to
dsy ottered a confusing medium through
which to try to discern any defined feel
ing towards the matket. During the early
part of the day this filing was of more
active anxiety, while later, with the sub
sidence of disquiet, there waa still a
passive apprehension that was not yet
clear In the tone.
The collapse In the United Copper slock
In the curb market and the collateral con
sequences from that event were the cen
tral influences, as they were ycaterday.
With the suspension of the board member
of the firm concerned with the attempted
corner In the stock and with the action
connected with It, which Involved yester
day's failure of a stock exchange firm
who had tiken orders In that stock, and
with the retirement of F. Augustus Helnse
from tha Mercantile National bank, the
limits of the trouble which has been loom
ing on the stock market horizon became
better denned and was nt rather leas por
tentous effect on sentiment. Feeling in
the matter waa rather one of belief as
over the removal flf a factor that prom
ised mischievous results. The announced
failure of a savings bank In Butte waa
associated In the puhllo estimation with
the unsettled condition In the copper
world, but details of tha affair were
meagre. With the dividend meeting of the
Amalgamated Copper company, set for to
day, the copper situation waa given an ad
ditional hold on tha market and an the
dividend action was not looked for until
near or after the close of the market, all
the conditions were supplied for the un
certainties on which speculation thrives.
Not only was the rate to which the divi
dend was to e cut In doubt, 1 per cent
quarterly representing the lowest esti
mates, but also the effect on the market
for the stock of any given rate declara
tions. The fall in copper, both In London
and In New York, supplied additional In
centives for conjecture and the coppers
were forced to new levels during the day.
This was true of some other stocks of first
rate Importance. Including a number of
railroad stocks.
The announcement that stock sheets had
aH passed successfully through the stock
exchange clearing house relieved the mar
ket from Its appearance of greatest de
pression. Some of the buvlng that enmied
was apparently due to the covering of some
heavy short lines of stocks and buying for
the long account continued under much re
straint. The rise In the call money rate
waa connected wHh the disturbance In the
copper stock and tn calling of loans
prompted by the unsettled effect of that
disturbance. Discounts In London were In
clined to advance and the weekly statement
of the Bank of England showed measures
In force by that establishment to strengthen
control of Ihe money market and make Its
own rate effective there. There was talk of
probable rise In the discount rate of the
Imperial Bank of Germany and a failure
r soma importance in Hamburg was an
Incident of the day. Foreign exchange was
not effected here and rates were unchanged
from yestordav. A sharp break In the prices
of wheat and corn was looked upon as
promising Increased takings for foreign ac
count, with probable effect In the foreign
exchange rate. Prices showed a rallying
tendency even after the announcement of
the reduction In the Amalgamated Copper
dividend.
