Liverpool showed a decline, as had been expected, receipts were liberal and the weather still engaged In helping the farmer get his grain to market. There was a largo short Interest here and In tho northwest, and It was alarmed over tho heavy ensh sales here yesterday, news of which wns not an nounced till tho day's trading was over. It was their prcsSuro which started the market upward. Later further ensh busi ness was reported, Liverpool recovered most of tho early loss. The northwest sold moderately early, but bought some also, and later was principally on the pur chasing side of the pit. Decomber, with out any material reaction, despite mim profit-taking, advanced to WHc, at which the market closed, TV81c over yesterday. Now York reported twenty-two loadB taken for export.

Tho news was bearish, the Price Current asserting that conditions were unfavorable to any advance of prices. Tho wheat strength, however, was too strenuous to bo overlooked and corn, ac cordingly, allowed Itself to advance mod erately. Tho cash demand was more ac tive, but country arrivals also showed an Increase. December sold between 34Tc and S!iic, closing Ho higher at SoHc; receipts were 414 cats. Thero wns a moderato trade In oats, some Improvement In the outsMo trndo being noticeable. Tho wheat strength nnd buy ing by cereal food companies helped tho price.

The market started higher on moderate hog receipts and an advance In prices at the yards. On covering by shorts the list advanced.

Prices Take a Decisive Course Down Trnrd llurlnir the Hesslon, NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-AccordIng to the puriiHu ui inn processional trnaers in stocks, a reaction in nrlces was thenrntlc. ally duo today. Tho reaction was seriously contested by tho bull element, but their efforts proved futile and prices generally show losses on the day. A sudden and characteristic break in suaar In the llnnl hour had not a little to dn with the de cisive course of the market downward. Sugar suffered from very heavy liquidation after its recent sharp rise, which wns not acountud for by any news. Today's break was equally without explanation, except the fact of tho Drevlous rise and thn in sulting roallxatlon. Tho drop In Sugar ex- tenaeu no a-, iiuiiuh. mo weaancss was not extreme n oilier points in ino list, Drollt-tiiklns: having nrnceeded in tn nr. derl.v and quiet way during tho greator part ot the day. without serious effect on tno prices, in me late dealings manlpula tlon bv bears was in evidence stocks mnk inn wldo declines on llaht transactions The theory which professional operators offjr to exnluln a reaction Uko that of to. duy Is that stocks, as a result ot a steady and prolonged' advance, had passed from st run r nnd organized control Into the hands , of weak and scattered buyers outside, who da not command !nir resources and who lae'e great skill In speculative methods to ntoKct their holdings. The anxiety to sell of this class ot holders on any sign ot a roiirlior becomes a drn 011 a hull market always In duo process of time. Today's dicpuMtlon to sell had no ncecmpanylng fa- vuiu"ir news 10 explain 11, unless 1110 nag ran. lack of conrirmat'0,1 of many of tho rcc.Tt rumors which hive lioen U!ed to nd van.'j stocks could Im tilled bad news. T;i!j class ot rumors centeicd about Brook lyn Trnnslt company today and Included rumors of chnnge of control of Metropoli tan Street Railway an 1 allegations ot n niwiv acquired Interest by tho Pennsyl vania rnllroad In tho tropefty. Tho stock w.11 pushed up an c.Mioim 6U on these rumors but fell back 2 In the late sell ing. In the railroad list Southern Pnclllc was the conspicuous feature, with an ex treme advance of nearly 2 points and a net gain of Hi. Tho new Chicago A Alton se curities, which were traded In for the first time, advanced steadily for tho common stcck, which rose 3, while the preferred re covered a decline. There wns nothing n tho money market to disturb speculative borrowers. The maximum rate for call loam was 4- per cent, tigulnst 5 per cent yesterday, and the rnto yielded to 3 per cer.fln tho Into dealings. Thto were no deposits at tho subtrinsury for transter to the interior. Sterling exchange steadied slightly on tho firmer money market In i.ciuion, wnicn resulted rr:m tno weaK re turn from thn llntilt nt Tint Innti. But the Improvement In tho conditions of tho Bank of Franco was really of greater impor tance, as i-nris is looxcti tn conserve ino money situation. Tho French Institution gained In gold during tho week $2,175,000, whllo Its noto Issue wan contracted $9,410.- 000 and loans nnd discounts of tho ban Its wero repaid to tho extent of $7,180,000. It Is evident thut New York can draw further gold If it Is desired, but of a total already engaged abroad for Import of $10,900,000 les'i than $4,000,000 has been actually re ceived and placed In the bonking reserves. Tho rest Is In transit n.id will soon become available. xno nond market was pot very active today, but prices wero Hrmlv hold. Totnl sales, par value, $2,600,000. United States 6s advanced U In the bid price on tho last call. Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: Heaviness and Idleness characterized the markets hero today. In duced by fears of higher rates for money. Americans wero much quieter than they nave Dcen recently ana lonaon was unset tled nnd Inclined to continue rrnllzlnc sales, fearing" that the manipulators In New York will unlond before tho election. Tho bank lost 20,000 gold to Holland. Money wns tighter, mainly owing to the settlement and end of the month arrange ments, wnuo tno unnK wns reported 10 00 borrowing to harden tho market. Much stronger measures than this will be re quired to acompllsh that ouioct. j. no louowing arc 1110 closing prices on the Now York Stock exchange: Atchison S!

Packers all seemed to be wanting good cattle, and especially the handywelghts, and nrlces were steady to strong. It was not long before everything uuu ijiiuiiKeu nanus at very satis factory prices. There wero only about a dozen loads of cow stuff on sale today, and as the demand was good the market wits a little stronger all around. Somo were calling It strops to a dime higher, particularly on the better grades, of which there wero very few. The stockor and feeder trade did rot show much change today. There was a good demand for tho more desirable kinds and prices were fully steady, with yester day. Tho' more common kinds moved fairly well, "but tho market did not show any Improvement on that class of cattle. Stock cows and heifers were In light supply todny and tho market wan Htrong and ac tive. The same may bo said of stock hulls anil stock calves held Just about steady. There were about flvn cnr nf wnntem beef on the mnrket, besides severnl cars nf iexas. -rne demand ror the western kill ers wns as lively as ever, nnd one string was good enough to sell at $4.43. The mar ket could be quoted strong nnd actlvo. Cows wore in light supply and the prices paid were anywhere from strong to a dime higher than yesterday. The stocker and feeder trndes were In good shnpo today and everything changed hands In good season nt about steudy prices. The supply has not been very heavy so far this wnnk. nnd the demand from the country is also rather ngnt, Dut prices are noiding about steady. Representative sales: BEEF STEErta No. Av. Pr. No Av.
