CHICAGO. Oct. 3. Wheat today success
fully contended agalu t one of the most
formidable arrays of bear statistics that has
been posted for sometime. Heavy world a
shipments , largo Increase on passage , heavy
primary rccelpu nnd visible supply Increase-
all worked against the price , hut covering
by Phorts and some eastern buying orders
were sufficient to cause the market to re
cover to a point slightly above yesterday's
final figures. December closed l-8c higher.
Corn , oats nnd provisions were dull and
changed but little.
A decline of \c \ marked the opening
trades In wheat. December starting at Gl i
tfG17-8c ( , compared with Saturday's closing
price of 020621-Sc. This slight break was
Boon followed bv a further break to G2 u-Sft
fi2 % , then for nn hour or more the market
kept within Vic range. The news usually
affecting the market was extraordinarily
bearish and that prices did not decline fur
ther was probably duo to the almost utter lack
fit Interest displayed by traders , the pit nt
limes being duller even than Saturday , when
I half of the brokers were absent. World's
shipments of wheat and flour were very
licavy , amounting to 8,393,000 bushels , of
which Russia contributed 2.53G.OOO bushels.
This was GOO.OOO bushels In excess of Rus
sia's shipments the week prevlouo and In
view of the many discouraging reports re
cently received as to crop conditions In that
country , the figures were n disagreeable sur
prise to bulls. The quantity on ocean passage -
sago Increased 1,760,000 bushels , compared
with 400.000 bushels a year ago. Liverpool
was 3-8J E-Sd lower , and London reported a
poor demand for foreign wheat at 6d de
cline. Chicago receipts were 417 cars ,
twenty-six of which were of contract grade.
Receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth for two
ilayK were 2.418 curs , compared with 1.GG3
oars last week and 1.51S cars a year ago.
Primary receipts exceeded previous records
for a day , the total being 2,2.- > G,000 bushels ,
compared with 1,914,000 bushels a year ago.
To add to the alreadv heavy burden of the
bulls' the visible supply showed un Increase
of 1.45C.OOO bushels where not more than
750.000 bushels Increase was looked for.
nulls derived a grain of comfort from the
licavy rains In the northwest , which It was
figured would lessen the receipts In that
quarter. After the first hour's trading , the
market gradually grew weaker , selling In
creased In volume though at no time did It
Minima large proportions. News wan alto
gether too bearish to allow of much buying
nnd the light demand resulted In a slow
decline , December finally getting down to
filHc. After noon , however , the market
firmed up considerably. Influenced by a re
covery at St. Louts , and the receipt of some
fali'-slzcd buying orders from New York ,
shorts and early sellers tried to cover but
had n good deal of difficulty in doing so and
December was finally bid up to 62 l-8JJC2Uc.
The market held steady after that and closed
nt 62 l-862Wo for December.
Corn was exceedingly dull. A visible In
crease of 1,704,000 bushels , large receipts
nnd a poor cash demand made a weak mar
ket early and a slight 'ocllno resulted , l ocal
nhorts covered ruoderaleiv toward the close ,
nnd the market became steadier , prices re
covering partially. Trade was narrow
throughout. December ranged from 29c to
and closed a shade lower at 29 1-8 ®
The market for oats was without Incident
of note. The market waa steady all day
within Uo range on a narrow trade , mostly
of n local nature. Receipts were GOO cars.
Visible increased C93.000 bushels. May ranged
from 22Vl223-8c to 221 < ! c , and closed at
23 3T8t2VAc.
Provisions were as dull ns grain. The
early market was steady 'DC-cause of larger
decreases in stocka than expected. Yellow
fever talk and liberal receipts resulted In a
gradual weakening , the market closing eas
ier. Packers sold moderately off ribs. At
the close January pork was 5c lower at
$8.9714. January lanl 2' , c lower nt Jl.SS'/i ®
4.85 and January ribs 2VSc lower at $4.65.

NEW YORK , Got. 3. Today's stock mar
ket furnlolinl a Btrlklns exhibition of th'
profcsvlon.il r'inrncter of the trading. Oe-
velopmen's r.ver Sunday did not Invite a
chanpo of ttut'cs by the lenders and on ilk1
resumption of business the raid against the
Industrials was renewed.
lir Tobacco. Consolidated Gas. New York Air
Brake and varloua other p-opertles of this
class gave way rapidly and although the re
action halted after the first htnh * 'Inclines
liu the meantime had been a'Tccted. ' ranging
up to 9 points In New York Mr Drake. Con
solidated Gas figured for ' 5 points and To
{ bacco f , points , the latter touching 113. The
bulls j then started In to retrieve fomo of
the ground lost last week , and after JumpIng -
Ing from one stock to another , finally ( sin
gled out Tobacco es a leader. The strength
developed Hero soon permea'Tl the entire
list nnd prices forged steadily upwards on
animated denllncs. Interests which had been
responsible for the late demoralisation In the
specialties also changed front and operated
fllf
for ( the long account. The action was taken
In older to shako off an uiulcsirnlito followIng
ItIt
Ing , the market showing Ig.iB of having i
been oversold. This circumstance rendered
manipulative tactics profltabletand vigorous
ITel
efforts were made to smieeze the shorts. The
elti
traders were atllck to take advantage of the
tic
change ! of program and any effort to cover
a large line was followed by vigorous bidding -
ding with sharp changes between trr.tisac-
lions. Contributory favorable Influences de-
vclopod as the day progressed to strengthen
the market. Arbitrage houses executed i
heavy purchasing orders nnd n decline In
money rates Induced more general buying for
trtl
the long account.
tlli The market In detail presented many strlk-
Ing features and while realizations were
lic
extensive : as the rise aesumcd headway , the
undercurrent of strength was not affected
and final prices were well above Saturday's
level. Some hesitancy was noted at the Inception
IfCi
ception of the rise and the market became
semi-stagnant , the traders apparently hold
ing aloof until the disposition of the leaders -
lie
ers became more clearly defined. Extreme
recoveries ' from the low nolnt were 10 points
[
In Tobacco to 123. 8 In New York Air Brake
and G In Consolidated Gas. Sugar and Man
hattan figured for 3 points nnd the balance
of the list between one nnd two.
The bond market opened with an easier
tendency by nn active demand for Atchlson
adlustments. Wisconsin Central firsts , aril
Union Pacific firsts. Denver & Gulf firsts
soon changed the current of prices and sharp
gains followed. The reorganization plan of
the latter company was Issued today r.rd
the drastic treatment accorded the common
stock caused a decline In Us price to ! .
Total Kiles of bonds. $2.000,000. Govern
ment bonds showed heaviness , the new -a !
yielding l-S per cent.
The Evenlne Post's London financial cable
gram says : The stock markets here today
were dull and stagnant and Irregular. Bra
zils were strong on the rise In exchange to
8U < i. This rapid rise In exchange Is partly
due to the closing of 1 > ear operations in
exchange. Americans opened dull , became
quieter later and closed Irregular and dull.
There was good buying of Portuguese. Span
ish 4s were strong on Paris bidding. Kaf
firs were good , as also Grand Trunk , the
latter on the semi-annual report , which Is
satisfactory , but featureless. Argentines
were lower on realizations. The Paris
bourse was steady and the Berlin market
was quiet on tight money. I learn from a
good source that the next return of the
Bank of Germany will show an enormous
reaction in the cash reserve , as a result of
the end of the quarter requirements , but
whether the bank rate will be raised within
the next ten davs depends on how soon this
money will return from circulation.

HUTCHINSO.V. Kan. , Oct. 3. Judge
Simpson has sentenced Lawyer E. G. Clark

Imposed for the crime , Clark mode a long
speech to the judge. It was a striking
scene , the gray-haired defendant pleading
for leniency from the Judge before whom he
had but recently been practicing. A week
ago a verdict of manslaughter In the second
degree had been rendered. Mrs. A. L. Pos-
tlewalt , charged with being an accomplice
In the murder , and her son. who has con
fessed to the killing , are yet to be tried.

NEW YORK. Oct. 3. A special from
Washington to the Herald says Instructions
have been Issued by Secretary Long to Rear
Admiral Dewey , directing him to send the
protected cruiser Baltimore nt once to Tien

the concern felt by the administration at the

authorities have made public.

CATTLE There was a good big run of
cattle today , large even for a Monday , but
the most of the offerings consisted of feed
ers , so that the supply of killing cattle was
not especially large. The general market
might bo summed up as fairly active on
good kinds and slow on all others.
Only about a half dozen loads of corn fed
beeves were on sale and none of them were
very good , the beat being only fair. There
was a demand for a few good cattle and
buyers were willing to pay steady prices , so
that there was no quotable change In the
market for corn feds. Quite a good many
grass westerns and Texas were offered for
sale that were good enough for the killers ,
but advices from both Chicago and Kansas
City were Indicating weak markets on that
kind. Besides buyers were claiming that
this market last week was too high as com
pared with other markets. The result was
that buyers started out talking lower prices
and wherever they were able they forced
the market lower , so that the cattle sold all
the way from steady to a dime lower.
Cows and heifers were not In very large
supply In spite of the large run of other
kinds of cattle and consequently the market
did not show any material change , values
being just about steady.
There wns an active demand for choice
klndn of stockers and feeders and It would
be safe to call good cattle steady at least.
There was quite an outside demand , coupled
with a good local speculative demand , which
made the market active. Some good feeders
sold ' at $4.20@4.3D and as high as J5.00 was
paid for some fancy dehorned yearlings.
The common kinds were not only lower
but no one appeared to want them and the
market was slow , so that It was late before
the ' holder of such cattle were able to close
out. Representative sales :

1IOOS Today's receipts of hogs were
larger than usual on n Monday and among
the arrivals were noted loads from ship-
pern who have not been coming here for
some time , which would Indicate that this
market was pretty high as compared with-
other selling points. The general situation
was decidedly against the selling Interests
and bear arguments were numerous. Chicago
cage was reporting a steady market , but It
was steady with Saturday's late market ,
which was far from good. Then , too , It
was known among buyers that the string of
packing hogs bought by a heavy packer here
on Saturday cost Ic more than a string of
about the same weights cost In Chicago.
Besides that buyers were all anticipating
largo receipts on Tuesday and a lower mar
ket and for that reason were not at all
anxious to load up with high-priced hogs
today. The result was that the market hero
opened very slow with buyers bidding at
least Cc lower , and as sellers were unwill
ing to make the concession It was late before -
fore anything wns done.
When the market did open It was at a
decline of lust about Be. the hogs selling
very largely at $3.65iI3.70 ! , as against $3.67'
03.75 on Saturday. Everything was finally
sold and In reasonably good season , consid
ering the late opening. Representative

SHEEP There was a pretty fair run of
sheep and lambs hero today , but of the
number reported In the yards four cars
were consigned direct to R packer , so that
there was no great number of fat sheep on
sale. The market opened strong on desir
able killers In snlte of the reported weak
opening at other selling1 points. Consider
ing the condition of other markets It would
be enough to call the market here steady.
