Trading In the stock market today was In light volume, very narrow and devoid of any noteworthy feature. The formal settlement of the coal strike excited little Interest. There was lust a bare ausKestlnn of activity at tho opening, but this was almost altogether due to moderate buying for account of the western speculative contingent. The mar ket soon became verv dull and save for a few spasmodic rallies continued so to the end. Missouri Pacific's unfavorable show ing for Augjist caused heavy selling, with an extreme decline of 2 points. Much of the selling came from one of the pools that had been nromlnent In the stock. The other standard railway Issues were comparatively neglected the grenter part of the day, their nlaces being taken by the minor indus trials, such as American Hide and Leather, United States Leulher. Rubber Goods. United States Rubber and a few others In the same class, all of which appeared to be subjected to manipulation. Operations through the day were almost altogether of a urofesslonal character, and at no time did the list reflect any public Interest. These conditions were not caused by tne monetary situation, money being very easy, but In light demand. The prevailing rate was 54 per cent. Time money was again slightly easier, much of the day's loans being made for periods of from four to six montna. Sterling exchange was nrm around ii.hku, Uifi'Vic from the export point, but nothing other than gossip has yet been heard con cerning gold exports. Government 4s amounting to about $2,000,. 000, par value, were bought by the 8ib- treasury today, making total local dis bursements, Including Interest, about $18. 000.1,00. The sub-treasury also paid out $400,000 for Klondike gold deposited at San Francisco. With few exceptions, the larger banks are lending their surplus cash for mercantile purposes, and continue to dis courage anything like a bull campaign. London was a seller on balance to the ex tent of about 15,000 shares. The more ex tensive declines for the day included Northwestern 6.

In Chicago and Kansas City the decline was put at I141 loc. At thle point the mar ket opened nearly loc lower than yester day's average. Some of the lighter loads of good quality were perhaps only a nickel lower, but the bulk of the sales were right close to a dime lower. The bulk of the early sales went at right around $6.80, with choice loads selling mostly from $6.85 to $6.90 and the commoner kinds from $6.80 to $6.85. After the first few loads were sold the feeling, if anything, was a little weaker and for a time not much was done. The situation, Instead of Improving as the morning advanced, grew rapidly worse and the close wai very slow and a big dime lower or lOftj loc lower. Sellers were holding for the morning prices, so that It was late before the pens were cleared. Representa tive salea: Slonx City Live Stoek Market. SIOUX CITY. Ia., Oct. 21 (Special Tele gram.)

Cotton Market. NEW YORK. Oct. !1. COTTON Opened steady to 6 points lower, In sympathy with heaviness In the Liverpool market and In keeping with the weather map from .the belt. There was little or no public support, and the foreign business went almost ex clusively to the bear side. However, light recclnts at the ports and a small estlmato for Houston receipts led to heavy covering later In the first hour and there was Indica tions that Wull street was supporting the January option. The southern spot cotton people took every advantage or an advance to 8. line tor January to pui our neages, una pressure of this nature soon forced prices backward again. Commission ffViuses sold scattering lines of winter months, other wise outside business continued along nana to mouth lines. Predictions for a bearish weekly crop weather report from New Orleans at midday and for an Increase in receipts before the close of the week helped to weight down tne late forenoon market. The bureau statement proved quite as favorable as expected and prices continued to hover around the lowest figures of the morning up to mid-afternoon. Then there was a steady liquidation and short selling movement, under which prices slipped lower, peg by peg. with the close barely steady and net 4fS8 points lower. Total sales estimated at 200,000 bales. NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 21.

WOOL The market here is strong. Manufacturers representing big mills have taken large quantities of wool of late, among the purchases being several of the large Philadelphia spinning and weaving concerns. Many firms, finding their stocks being gradually depleted, pre fer to hold the wool now on shand unless their prices are offered. As It is, prices are gererally stronger. ST. IX1U1S, Oct. 21.

Totals 8.170 4.120 12,766 CATTLE There were more cattle here today than arrived yesterday. The ten dency aeemed to be to pound the market on cow stuff and feeders, but there were not enough western beef steers of good quality to enable buyers to break the mar ket on that class of cattle. Trading was fairly active on good cattle of all Kinds, but slow or common stuff. There were only a few cars of cornfed steers on sale, so that a good test of the market was not made. There was one pretty fair bunch of cattle, but buyers were rather slow about taking hold, and the best that could be said of the market Is that It was slow but about ateady. The cow trade was rather uneven this morning. Buyers set to work to get their supplies for less money, and In some cases they succeeded and in others they did not. The choicest grades sold In Just about yes. terday a notches, out the medium grades and common stuff was a little lower. The class of cows that have been selling around 83.00 suffered about as much as any. The general market could be quoted as weak to a dime lower and none too active. Bulls and stags, unless choice, were also a little easier, but veal calves held about steady. The tendency or prices on stockers and feeders was undoubtedly downward. The strictly choice heavy feeders were, perhaps. no lower, but aside rrom those the market was a little easier. Common stuff was not only weak, but very dull. The demand from the country has not been anything extra so far, and for thai reason specu lators are rathtr bearish. There was a good demand this morning for western Deer steers, ir tne qualltv was satisfactory, and the market could be quoted steady. As high as $5.10 was paid for Colorado cattle and Montana cattle brought $5.15. The common stuff was, of course, neglected, the same as usual. Range cows were steady, it cnoice. out weak to a dime lower where they were of medium to common quality. As high as $1.55 was paid for Montana cows, which Is the high est price in some little time. Choice stock ers and feeders were about steady, but others were slow and a little lower. Repre sentative sales: BEEP STEERS Ev.porated Apples and Dried Fralts, NEW YORK. Oct. 21.

The quality of the greater part of the receipts. thougn, was on tne common order and comparatlve'v ".ttle fat stuff was on sale. The better gmdes of killers sold readily at just about yesterday's prices, but as usual. the common grades were dull, as packers all wanted good stuff. There were no strictly good natives here, but It Is safe to say that desirable grades would have com manded steady prices. There was a lime more inquiry ror reen- er today than there was yesterday, but while there was a little better tone to the trade there was no particular change In prices. The Inferior grades were slow sale, the same as utual.
