Oct 11 The stock mark't fell Hnt again today The dullness has made evident that josterdaj' * upwnrd spurt was duo almost entlrelv to covering b > shorts , vvho today were Inclined to regret their pro- clpitancj The warlike situation between Lngland and Transvaal was almost with out effect. In fact , the London market seemed to feel rather cneoui aged than otherwise over the termination of the uncer tainty , and operators were inclined to hid up the prices of some of the American fatocki In sMTipathy with the advance of the Knfllr stocks. The rise was short-lived on this side and the dragging tendenc } of prices was not much changed at any time until the close of the market nt prices below lat night's level all around The money market was distinctly easier. The causes of this were quite apparent from the action of the Treasury departm nt In offering to anticipate the government Interest payments for the remainder of the fiscal year. For one thing , the sub-treasury figured at the clearing house again today as a debtor for over a million Govern ment disbursements arc running quite heavy , due In large pnit to pension pa > - ments There was a sum of gold received from Havana today on account of postal revenues nnd a small additional shipment of French gold was received. The rat' for call money ruled for the greater amount of loans at 7 to s per cent and fell to 3 per cent In the late dealings Monc > continues to go to the Interior In large volume. Not so cheerful a view was taken of the effect of the Treisury department's action with regard to nntlcipited Inter st Under the terms of the depaitment order the amount of Interest to be paid out this week Is only about $1,600,000 and that not until Friday Of couise only part of It Is pajablo In New York Th > ne\t dis bursement comet' on October 21 ' 1 he re quirement for the present i Ion of registered bonds for Indorsement before pijment Is made ! nlso expected to operate against a general acceptance of the Interest. The action of the Treasury ihpartment never theless has had the effect of allnvtng apprehension In Wall street , but It Is per ceived that whatever relief Is furnished is not likely to furnish a suppb of surplus funds for the benefit of stocU speculations Business In bonds was well distributed and the tcndcncv of prlcts was downward.

Consols were down n little from jesterdny's price at 1039-1G The opinion expressed In the market0 here Is , so far as military operations In South Af rica are concerned , there will be a dead lock practically until the British .umy corps which has been formed for opetatlon there begins to advance In December. American securities opened firm and devel oped strength , but In the absence of New York support they sagged toward the eloso. The general contango was 6 per cent ; ex ceptions were Louisville & Nashville , St. Paul and Central Pacific , which were easier.

Considering the kind of cattle there has probably < been no time this sea son when they would have brought any moro money than they did today. Grass beef also brought good strong prices Cows and heifers were In demand at prices that were lirm us compared with jesterday and the. most or the offerings were taken In good season. It Is safe to quote the cow market ai 5SjlOo ( higher than last week. Good heavy feeding cattle , of which there were very few. were In active demand and the market was Btrong on that kind. The offerings of such cattle as would answer that description were nil taken In good season , and It Is safe to quote them lOflfflta higher than the low day last week On the othe.r hand the medium and common kinds of cattle and jearlings were neglected and the market on them was both slow and lower. Holders of v earllngs , even those that were good , found It no easy matter to even get a bid , speculators as a rule claim ing that they were filled up on that kind and did not have room for any more.

After nbout half of the hogs had been sold and the moro urgent orders filled the market weakened on all kinds. As noted above , heavy hogs were very slow nt the opening nnd it wa-i almost Impossible to get a bujer to go and look nt tmcklntr hoes Tor that reason It was late before much was clone with that kind nnd when the market did open on the heavy hogs It was 6c lower. Advices from other market ponts vvero rather favorable to the bujcrs and they eventually bought the heavv hogs their wav , that Is about Gc lower than yesterday's market.

At this point the receipts h.ive been none too large to supply the demands of local packers and for that reason sellers have been able to hold up prices here , until there has not been much difference between this market and Chlcigo. The very fact , however , th.it the muiket at this point Is out of line caused bujers to hold bac.k and the mar ket this morning was -very slownnd dull , besides being lower. Stufr th-it just hap pened to suit bttjers sold prettv well in some cases close to steady. In other oases It was considerably lower. It Is bafe lo f > .iy that the market for the week Is fully 15c lower and in extreme cases as much as 25c lower , The feeder market Is also -very slow and weak , and though there was a good supply from which to mnku selections , bujcrs did not take hold at all freely and It was late before vorv much was accomplished.
