CHICAGO, Sept. 23 September whest
Wss Again the leading feature on the Hoard
f Trade today, and under the Influence of
Ivavy buying by Khnrli, the price advanced
by Jumps and bounda until a (tain nf Br
Jiad been made. Then there was Just lis
Hidden a drop, and the close was un
changed. December cloned 4c lower. 8cp-
temher corn cloned lc lower, whilv Decem
ber was unchanged. December oats were
o higher with January provisions from
8 '.! to JOc IilRhcr.
Fears of manipulation In September
rheat Rave shorts a bad acare early In
the sesrlon today, and as a result of their
Irantlo struggles to get to rover the price
wf that commodity went soaring. Taking
advantage of the big advance In prices,
fome of the local Inn disponed of much of
their holdings. It being reported that In
the neighborhood of 2,m.(X0 bu. chanced
bands. With the demand from shorts
mtlsficd, prices declined aa rapidly as they
Jiad previously advanced, and September
alosed unchanged, at 8ic. after making the
flow score of 'i'.r. December opened un
changed at 70V(I "O'c, declined to 6lc,
closing H? lower at Kl'n'ufi'JInc. Primary
receipts were 1.5X2,000 bu., against 1.84'i.ilO
year ago. Clearances of wheat and flour
Were equal to 26S.0U0 bu. Hradxtreet's re
rorted a total Increase of wheat of 2,836.noo
nu., compared with an Increase of 1, 606,000
iast year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
.receipts of 1,216 cars, and local receipts
were 310 cars, four of contract grade, mak
ing a total for the three points of 1,526
cars, against 1,41 last week and 1,515 a
year ago.
t'orn was firm today on wet weather,
with prediction of a continuance of the
tume. There was considerable profit-taking,
but the main feature to trade was the
active buying of December by commission
houses. September opened 44i4.c higher
at 624'f63c. but declined to 61c. closing, lc
. lower at 614c. December opened t'nc
higher at 45'4'u454c and after advancing
to 45o dropped back to 444c The close
was unchanged at 464c. Local receipts
Were 489 cars, with 81 of contract grade.
There was little Interest In the oats pit
today, the chief feature being covering by
September shorts. The market wns steady
throughout the entire session and fluctua
tions were within a narrow range. Rains
throughout the central west helped to main
tain prices. December opened unchanged
to 4c higher at HOSft.toc, rose to Sh4r. only
to drop back to 304(& 3(4c. The close was
J.c higher at 3o4c. Ical receipts were 263
cars.
Provisions exhibited the same tendencies
as yesterday, which was that of shorts
peeking to cover their contracts. Offerings
came mainly from one of the leading pack
ing houses. Light receipts of hogs, with
flilgher prices at the yards, Imparted
strength to provisions. January pork closed
4iic higher at 115.20, lard was 5c higher at
.:!4 and ribs 24c higher at $8.04.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
150 cars; corn, 275 cars; oats, 235 cars; hogs,
22,000 head.

VEW YORK STOCKS A BODS.
General Letting; Loose by Spernlatora
on the Street.
NEW YORK. Sept. 23 The stock market
wns subjected to drastic liquidation today
and seculatnrs of all classes from the
smallest to the greatest threw over their
holdings, with increasing algns of dis
order. There were a few pauses In the trading,
but when the bears began bidding for the
stocks In the fear that they were over
extending their short account It proved so
easy to get stocks that the offering down
of prices was constantly renewed, with a
constant uncovering of fresh stop-loss or
ders, which tumbled stocks upon the mar
ket In heavy volume. The closing waa
furiously active and with prices still pur
suing a rapidly downward course. The
growing difficulty of borrowing money to t
carry (speculative Holdings ot siocks on
margin was the root of the trouble. Yes
terday's moderate calling of loans by the
banks. Instead of relieving the trouble
seemed to aggravate It. The disturbance
of the money market was due In some part
to the operation of the forces of relief,
which were through new and unaccustomed
channels. Thus the high rate tor money
resulting from yesterday s loan contraction
offered an inviting opportunity for all who
had available deposits In the banks to draw
out their deposits and replace them on loan
In the stock market. This was done by
many classes ot depositors all the way
from those with private accounts up to
the large banks of the Interior which keep
many millions on depOHlt with New York
banks. This process, if carried out In a
thoroughly systematic and orderly man
ner, would constitute simply a transfer of
book accounts. No Increase or decrease of
the supply l loanable funds Is involved,
but the deposits withdrawn from the banks
to be loaned had to be replaced by heavy
calling of loans put out by the banks. This
shifting process was largely responsible for
the continual flurries In money. The senti
ment In the street was decidedly upset by
the conviction that no relief Is Imme
diately available for the stringent condi
tion of the supply of money. The early
contribution of nearly $l,uoo,ou0 to the mar
ket through the subtreasury operations was
nearly wiped out by yesterday's customs
collections, and today there was deposited
at the subtreasury $250,000 for telegraphic
transfer to Chicago and $170,000 for New
Orleans. While part of the withdrawals of
deposits by interior banks were reloaned
here other sums were shipped away by ex
press to meet the crop requirements. The
drop In New York exchange at Chicago
from par to 20 cents discount reflected the
Increasing pressure upon this center for
funds, notwithstanding the higher level of
money rates. It waa noticeable also that
the sterling exchange rate failed to yield to
any material extent The Jump in the
prices of wheat and cotton has checked the
export buying and the making of ex
changes, private discount In London rose
above the bank rate today and It Is gen
erally expected that the bank rate will ba
advanced to 4 per cent on Thursday and,
such other obstacles Interposed to the
movement of gold to New York as are
possible. The amount of commissions ex
acted by brokers for time loans are grow
ing and there are complaints of scarcity In
other departments of the money market
owing to the withdrawals to take advan
tage of the high rulings for call loans. The
considerable shrinkage today In the prices
of securities Involved calls for additional
collateral on loans, which was a further
factor in the pressure in the money mar
ket. The conndence In valuea which has
been so persistently maintained received
a decided setback in face oc mis combina
tion of circumstances. At least one power
ful speculative combination liquidated ac
counts to the extent of between 60,two and
100,000 shares of various stocks, most
largely of Missouri Pacific. One of the
most important mainstays of the recent
market was thus withdrawn. An opening
lift of 3 points In St. Paul was the only
Important attempt to contest the declining
tendency from, the start. Last prices show
that the most Important stocks are from 2
to over 3 points lower than they were last
night. Tne aownwaro. impume 10 biuvh
caused some additional weight to be given
to the reports of disorders in the coal re
gion, untavorable crop reports both for
grain and cotton and the strained relations
between Great Britain and Venexuela, but
the money situation overwhelmed all other
conditions.
Bonds were active. Total sales, par

CATTLE There waa another generous
supply of cattle here this morning, but
the trains were so slow about getting In
that the morning was well advanced before
a correct Idea of what waa In sight could
be formed. As Is generally the case under
such circumstances, buyers were a little
slow about taking hold, but still the market
held up In very satisfactory manner to the
selling Interests.
There were several bunches of cornfed
steers In the yards and some of them
were by far the best of any that have
arrived In some little time. All the pack
ers seemed to want them, but as there
have not been enough corn cattle coming
of late for traders to know exactly what
they are worth It took some time for buy
ers and sellers to get together on prices.
As a general thing, though, the market
looked fully steady and the prices paid
were very satisfactory.
The cow market was quite active this
morning, as there did not seem to be any
more In sight than packers wanted. The
better grades could safely be quoted strong
to a dime higher and It was not long before
the bulk of the better grades were out of
first hands. The common kinds and can
ners sold without much trouble at good
steady prices.
Bulls, veal calves and stags sold In yes
terday's notches In the majority of cases.
The stocker and feeder market was well
supplied this morning, but the good to
choice kinds sold at steady prices with
yesterday and there waa considerable ac
tivity to the trade. The demand from the
country yesterday waa somewhat disap
pointing, owing to the rain, which usually
Keeps a good manv buyers at home. '1 hat,
of course, had a somewhat depressing effect
upon the market, but It effected the com
mon kinds more than It did the better
grades. All but the good to choice kinds
could be quoted rather slow and weak.
Western beef steers. If of good qualify,
old at right around steady prices with
yesterday. Where the cattle were a little
lacking In quality they were a shade lower
and Texas cattle were quite a little lower.
Trading, though, was fairly active on the
good to choice grades. Range cows were
active and strong to a dime higher on the
good kinds, but steady on tne common and
medium grades. Western feeders were
steady where the quality was satisfactory
and slow and lower where It was not

HOGS There were only about 37 loads of
hogs on the opening market this morning,
but a good many were reported back. Buy
ers were out in good season and the market
opened fairly active and generally a dime
higher than yesterday morning. The bulk
of the hogs sold from $7.55 to $7.66, and as
high as $7,724 was paid. It was not long
before everything In was disposed of. Yes
terday afternoon some late hogs arrived
and they sold considerably higher than the
morning sales, so that today's market was
more than a dime higher than yesterday
morning. The advance today carries the
market nearly back to where It was last
week Monday, the loss of last week being
nearly regained. Representative, sales:

The market openod alow and all the buyers
were bearish. Packers as a rule wanted
to buy their supplies a dime lower, and In
I0n..Ca,M ,1ales w"e made that looked
as much as 15c lower than the same kinds
brought yesterday. The better grades as
a rule, though, could be quoted weak to a

dull. The same was true of lambs, so that
It was late before the bulk of the fat stuff
was disposed of.
The feeder market was also rather quiet
as buyers were all trying to get their sup
plies for less money. In a good many cares
they succeeded, but In others the more
desirable grades sold at about ateadv
prices. '
