WOOL The offerings at thu wool auction sales today amounted i to 10,713 bales. The tone was steady , with i prli-fH ruling lit the late decline. Medium [ coarse stock was rather easier. The recent slackening In demand Is attributed to man- 1 ufucturers having tilled their requirements , i The prospect of dearer money IH causing many merchants and speculators to sus- 1 peml operations for the time being. , Scoured merinos were taken chiefly by the homo trade. Many bales of medium New i South Wales nnd Queensland were with drawn. Locks and plros were easily dts- I posed of at a very small decline. Greacy merinos sold steadily > to French and Ger man buyers. Crossbrcds were In largo sup ply und as the quality was flno competl'lon was spirited. Medium greasy was Irregular , owing to the withdrawal of American nun- 1 port. Coarpe stock was taken principally 'by ' the home trade at prices on a level I with yesterday's decline.

Klnn ClonliiK In n Xrnrly SlnRiiniit Jtnrlipt n Frntitrc of ( lip Day. NEW YORK , Oct. 3. Tlio disturbed con dition of the foreign markets for securities and the upward tendency of foreign dis counts caused n. break , in prices at the opening of the Stock exchange here. The selling movement was quite active In the first hour nnd low prices for the day In the majority of stocks were made In that time. There was some pressure later In the day In obscure quarters of the stock lint , but prices generally were better by the end of the lirst hour. In the latter part of the day the small volume of offerings Invited the bidding up of prices. The level of many stocks was carried above that of last nlcht , both In the railroads and Industrial department. No largo offerings were brought out by the advance nnd even the violent upward leap In the money rate to 40 per cent after 2 o'clock caused only a slight setback In prices. They hardened again and the closing was very flrm In an almost stagnant market nnd only slightly below the best of the day. There Is a very fair mixture of net gain. " throughout the list. The stock market was strikingly In different to the gyration. There was considerable calling of loans In the early hours by national banks whose reserves are below the legal limit. But the money rate did not get over 20 per cent during this period and at the opening loaned at 6 per cent. Before the afternoon flurry It had fallen back again to 6 per cent. It was after 2 o'clock when the rate spurted to 40 per cent nnd 'then ' dropped back again before the close. The urgent demand for money seems confined to the Stock cx- change and the small disbursements cre ated by today's high rate Indicate narrow limits of need there. Time loans , though they did not respond to the high rotes for call loans , are not offered In large volume. Call loan rates at neighboring financial centers showed some disposition to advance today. But the pevcre stringency seems confined to New York and to a narrow speculative circle In the stock market. T here Is no evidence as yet of any dis turbance of the course of general business for lack of money. The action of the Ix > n- don nnd Berlin money markets today and the weekly return of the Imperial Bank of Germany indicate an urgent need for money there. Obviously no further move ment of gold to New York Is to be ex pected In the Immediate future. No effect is yet apparent from the October disburse ments of dividends and Interest , but some funds nro expected to make their way from this source Into the New York money mar ket before many days. A hope Is enter tained in stock market circles that some measure of relief by the Treasury depart ment Is Imminent , as the absorption of surplus revenues IK the principal cause of exhaustion of the local money reserve. The bond market was dull , but prices were lower In response to the high money rate. Total sales , par value , J1,293OOU. United States 2s declined M per cent In the bid price. The Commercial Advertiser's Txmdon financial cablegram says : The stock mar ket here opened weak today and went flat early on the announcement of an advance In the bank rate of discount from 3'4 to 4fc per cent. The advance was made by the governors of the Bank of England on their own responsibility because of the rise In the rate at Berlin of from 6 to 6 per cent. There was no panic and little excitement In the market , but It wan decidedly vcnk , although there was a slight rebound finally. Lord Rothschild , despite the critical state of affairs In the Transvaal , told his friend1 * this morning that there would be no war. Consols were down to 101i for money , 102 % for the November account. At the close today they were lOS i for money , 102 % for the account.

COTTON The pendulatlons of cotton on the Cotton ex- changu were almost as frequent and active as those required yesterday , but tliu speculation was less active. At the start sentiment 'favored a declined Inas much as cable news depicted pronounced weakness in the English market. Our market rejspond a at the opening with a drop of 6dG'points. . The decllno uncov ered numerous limited buying orders and a full Hedged bull movement soon sup planted Initial weakness. Prices Jumped to a level of a point or above the close of IiiMt nltrht. onlv to wmi-pn n - < " on r sudden drop on the Ilvcrpool market. A wild scramole to unloau ouui u , u..i'Kei down 15T1S points. Subsequently there was a period of recuperation , but the market failed to reach the high figures touched shortly after the call. The slump dislodged large chunks of pyramid cot ton. The news from the cotton belt was bullish nnd there was no concerted effort on the part of the bears to force the mar ket. Later in the day the Investment public bought vigorously on all weak In tervals. Europe sold early but later be came an active buyer. New Orleans traded on both sides nnd American spin ners bought the far months.

At 8 o'clock there wore nlrendy cars tnaugh In to make it n big day , with enough more back to Jliak < 5 ai s ° ° day > B runA11 the morning the trains kept arriving , and though the market opened early and stock kept going forward to the scales , U was hard work to k'cp nhead of the receipts. CATTLE The yards were crammed full of cattle of nil kinds , but feeders pre dominated. Thcro were more cornfed steers In the yards than usual nnd a sprinkling of western beef steers. The market on all desirable fnt cattle was steady nnd ns a. rule satisfactory to the sellers. There were some right good cornfed steers among thi- offerings of that kind of cattle. For the number of cattle in the yards there did not appear to bo any great num ber of cows and heifers on sale. At the same tlmo there was a good local demand ? i , " 10 , market was fully steady on nny- thing that the killers wanted. In some cnsses , in fnct , sellers reported that they got strong prices. There did not appear to bo any great number of good to choice feeders In the yards , but there were a good many that would be called very fair and a world of common cattle. Speculators had a good many cattle on hand nnd were inclined to go slow , while country buyers were cautious In view of the very large receipts. The result was that the market on feeders was slow and U was late before very much busi ness was transacted. To say the least the market was lOo lower than yesterday and common kinds were still lower and neglected. Representative alcs : BEEF STEERS. No. Av. Pr. No. Av.

Some ul the largest buyers' wore out wltli liberal order ? In hand and the early markel was Ju t the kind that sellers like. Karl.v pales ranged from $4.40 to J4.55. Good heavy hogn sold largely nt JI.40. some of the boat a little above that flgtire ; mixed loads went largely at ft.45 , and the b u light as hlgli ns { 4.65. Those were the prices paid on the opening market. Before half of the hogs were wilil buvers seemed to como to the conclusion that then , was no necessity for paying Chicago price ? for hogs with the receipts as large as the > were today , besides some of thu packer ? had been holding hack all the murnltiR evidently expecting a weak market. Tin result was that the market came to i sudden standstill. Some of the buyers withdrew and said that they did not wan any hogs nnd the best prices that others would offer were no more than steady will yesterday , the advance of the morning bi-lnt , all lost. Kor a time the trade was ver > much of a drag , still the pnckern evident ! } wanted the hogs and tlirv took them a yesterday's prices. Trains kept arriving nl the forenoon , but packers kept buying them up about as fast as they came in , so that practically nil the rnrelpts changed hands' In good season. On the late market a gooi many of the big. heavy hogs had to sell at J4.33Q4.37H. Representative sales : No. Av. Shr. Pr. No. Av. Bhr. 1'r. SHEEP Early arrivals were light , but. ns was the case with all other kinds of stock , there were a good many cars re ported back to arrive later In the day. Local packers seemed to all want supplies and the market was Just about steady on both sheep and lambs. A good many feeders were In the pens , some of them carried over from the day before. They were largely lambs and old ewes. The market on feeders seems to be slow and weak , with the arrivals some what In excers of the demand. As noted yesterday , the more urgent buying orders appear to have been filled la t week and the market has eased off for want of buyIng - Ing support.
