NE\V YORK , Sept. 20 Thl was a day of violent fluctuations and great speculat'vo exc'tement uiran the Stock exchange , The movement of prices was so feverish and un certain that the dspo"ltlon ! among profes sional operator * was generally to close up accounts with the day. As a consequence net changes are astonishingly small consid ering the wide vnilatlon during the day In only a few Instances do they exceed fractions , and though the majority of gtoiks are lower , theto Is a fair sprinkl'ng of gains There was a time In the morning- when a long 1'st of specialties had advanced between 1'i and 3 j > oliits and during the afternoon they fell very generally to as much below last night's level. A range of between 3 and 8 points was traversed during the day by the following Industrial stocks : Continental Tobacco , Smelting preferred Colorado Fuel , Consol idated Gat' , Federal Steel , Manhattan , Pco- pie's Gas , Tob icco , Metropolitan Street Railway , Tennedbee Coal nnd Brooklyn Transit , The railroad stock1 * did not move near to widely n u mle but on extreme range of between I'd and 4t was traversed by St Paul Rock Island , Burlington , North , western , Great Western prcfeired "A , " Chicago cage \ . Eastern Illinois , St Paul & Duluth - luth , Gieat Northern preferred , Reading lirst prefeired and Laekawanna The in dex of the market all day was Brooklyn Transit , the dealings In which were on an cnoimous scale With a total capitalization of 430,000 bhares loday'u dealings In this stock footed up 2S3 175 shares. It advanced 24 after the opening , fell 7'4 to n new low- level at 75V4 and then retraced Its course , rls'ug ' 8 pofnta to SSVi nnd closing nt the high level of the morning The whole mar ket followed In Its wake In a general way , though Its erratic lluctuatlons were Impossi ble to follow nt nil time" The market was a gigantic speculative contest throughout The bean broke down the gains which had been built up In the morn'ng with appircntly little effort nnd dislodged somn very heavy offerings on the decline from holders who had vainly hoped that the fall In prices had come to an end , There was large selling through commix , slon houses and the ilood of industrials pourtMl upon the market was said to be duo to the I'all'ng of some large loan * In which these stoi ka figured as collaterals nnd had to be sold to liquidate United States Mil ) . Ing which gold yesterday at 56 , sold today at 24 after first selling at 25. an extreme decline of Zi polnte The preferred stock , after selling yesterday at 75 , sold today at 50. a decline of 25 points The cloblng prices for these stocks were for the com mon ! 0j(25 ami for the preferred 40fl50. There was no important development today - day In the money situation The rise in New York exchange at Chltago and the ad vance in the ( all loans at some other east ern cJt'es ' Indicates that the western de mand for money has been shifted to some extent from New York to the other eastern cities. Considerable sums of Chicaco money nro reported to have been loaned In New York during the week. The outgo , however , still continues both fo the Inter or nnd to the pub-trenaury. Foreign exchange wai somewhat easier , more notably so on Paris nnd Berlin than on London , At this time last year , when New York surplus re serves had fallen below $5 OOO.Ouo gold began promptly to come In from Europe. 1'ri.vl- ous to September la t year wo had already Imported over $100000,000 of gold on bal ance , while thus far this year the excess of exports of gold has been nearly $3,000.000. Although the excess of merchandise exports - ports for eight month * of this year Is nearly $ (5,000,000 ( less than last year , the unliqui dated trade balance In our favor thus far this year Is therefore $ J9OHOOOO greater than for the same period last year. Sterling ex change Is still lUc In the pound above the level at which gold Imports began last year. Bonds weakened In sympathy with stock" , but the movement was not wide. Total sales par value , $1,612,000. United States bonds were unchanged in bid quotations. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says : The markets here were dull , hesitating and Idle today.

In most cases at full quotations. Strengthened by the opening at Uie Uondon sales , where prices were quoted Ipji 12Vc higher than at the close of the previous sales , the feeling In the local market is very firm and the trend of values i unmistakably upward. There ib an especially good demand for line stapla wools Many of the trade believe that this stock Is .headed toward 65c , and there are not wanting tho&o who predict even 70c for this class of stock Sales for the week In Boston , 117,000 Ibs. domestic and 305 000 Ibs. foreign , against a total of 3,556,000 Ibs for the previous week and a total of 1,084,000 Ibs. for the corresponding week last year.

As lit turned out there were none too many , at least none too many good cattle. The market as a whole was In good shape , so that the mobt of the receipts changed hands In good season. Cornfed beeves were In moderate supply and sold at steady prices. Among the offerings were some pretty good cattle , and as high as Jo 00 was palJ. Graes beef cattle were in good demand and the market on that kind was a little stronger even than yesterday. Grass beef steers are selling high here as compared with other markets tor example , on Monday good range cattle brought Jo Jo on this market , while the top In Chicago was only J5 05 , and other cattle sold In the same proportion. Cows and heifers were in liberal supply this morning. Good kinds were steady and fairly active , while the more common kinds were a little weak and not very free sell ers Veal calves were In good demand and brought a little higher prices today , { b 75 boins : paid for one bunch. There was a good , brisk demand this morning for desirable feeders of good weights , and the market on that k'nd was both active and a little higher. For the two days it would be safe to call the market 10S15c higher. It must be borne In mind that It Is the heavy feeders that aio In the best demand , but at the same time even the commoner k.nds that were ex tremely hard to sell at any price on Mon day are moving much more readily at the present time. The country has taken ad vantage of the break In prices to buy [ heavily , and a pile of cattle have gone out Into the country during the last few days Representative sales : BEEF STEERS. No. Av Pr.

S33 3 70 HOGS Receipts of hogs were again largo today , making It the biggest thre-e-days' run In a long time hllo the receipts were none too laige , the fact that there were plenty of hogs In the. y arils to go the rounds , together with advices of lower eastern markets , caused a weak opening at this point. Some of the best light hogs sold as high as , yesterday that Is , at JI 10 but aside from that the general market was 2i4c lower Heavy hogs that would have sold re idlly at J4 30 yesterday were wanted at $427' nnd some of the heaviest packers announced at the start that they wanted hogs ac lower , or good heavy hogs at $125 Sellers were not Inclined to take off very much , so that the. trade was not as active as on a good many days , but still the hogs kept selling and In the end the pens were well cleared. The late market was dull and slow. It will be. noted from the table of average prices above that even with the weakness displayed In today's market the hogs sold 6c higher than a week ago.

A largo arch of welcome which the common council or dered erected on Woodward avenue In honor of the Odd Follows Diamond Jubilee , and under which today's parade was to have marched , w.ia torn down and totally de stroyed today. A series of misfortunes had purged the unfinished structure. It was built In two Imhos , both of which became strained and broken on the attempt to ralso them. Last night , when finally gotten up , they would not properly Join , and today n great crnck appeared In the upper sldonnlk near the front of nn adjacent building , caused by the strain of arch-raising tncklea attached thoroto. Today a gang of public workt cm ployos lowered nnd dcs'troyed the whole structure In the interest of public safety. The parade managers state tint 5,000 men were assigned plates In this afternoon's pa rade. Propositions to make mwnbcrshlp In both the patriarchs militant and grand encamp ment compulsory for representatives of the sovereign grand lodge were dafoatcd In to day 's tension of the lodgo. A proposition to hold biennial sessions Instead of annual was also voted down.
