HEW YORK STOCKS AXD B05DS.
So Demand for Stocks, Consequently
List Is Irrearular and DnVl.
NEW YORK. Oct U Anm. relief was I
money and foreign exchange ratew, but
there was no demand for atopics snd tha
list was Irregular and dull throughout. For
reasons that are not altogether clear the
substantial financial Interests continue to
hold aloof, and even the pool manipulators
remain Inactive. The rlso In the price of
coal and further rumors nf labor troiihlea
In various parts of the country wero among
tho few developments of the day. The
strong features at the opening wero Lacka
wanna, Meaning common and second pre
ferred. Baltimore & Ohio and Toledo, ftt.
IjOuIs Western Issues. Operations In the
last named stocks were again believed to be
largely manipulative and Baltimore & Ohio
soon lost Its Initial gain. Firmness was
shown in such Issues as Atchison. TTnlon
Pacific, St. Paul, Missouri Paciilc and Colo
rado Fuel and Iron. The latter was
stronger on reports of buying by Interests
opposed to those In control. An early sale
of St. Joseph & Grand Island second pre-
ierrea was mane at a decline or over I
per cent and later a further loss was re
corded. Liquidation In Baltimore A Ohio
rights for cash waa presumably due to the
fact that the option on. the rights expired
today. Tradlnar wan verv lleht all thrniichl
the morning session and fluctuations were
narrow. Speculation was limited almost
entirely to tho specialties, the early move
ments in t-oioraoo uei and iron and To
ledo. St. Louts A Western Issues helnv
continued. Colorado Fuel was the real fea
ture, transactions In that stock aggregating
rr.oro than one-fifth of the total business,
with a net advance of 4 per cent. Fa
vcrable reports concerning tho coal stocks
and the steel and Iron Issues were heard,
but they failed to Induce any demand. The
afternoon session brought no developments
and such trading as was reported came
from out of town. London dealt In about
16,000 shares, of which two-thirds were
sales. Virtually all the buying for London
was done by one firm of brokers. In addi
tion to Colorado Fuel strength was shown
by Lackawanna. Readlna- second. Vlrelnla-
Carolina, Cotton OH, Tennessee Coal, Amai-
gamaieo. copper and gunman, call money
ruled at between 4 and 6 per cent, but be
fore the close of tho day fell to 2 per cent,
the lowest flguro reported In some time.
Demand sterling worked down to $4.8640,
and the great part of the day's business
was on the selling side. The weekly bank
statement Is expected to make a very fa
vorable showing, with a large Increase of
cash, due to recent bond purchases under
Secretary Shaw's offer. The subtreasury
today transferred $250,000 to Chicago and
paid out $100,000 for account of gold de
posited at San Francisco.
Railroad brinds were sluggish but steadier
all around. Total sales, par value, $1,245,000.
unuea maies Donas were an unchanged on
the last call.

CATTLE There was a heavy run of cat
tle here today for a Friday and more than
waa generally expected. The big bulk of
the receipts waa made up of cows and
feeders and the tendency on the part of
buyers was to pound the market wherever
possible. Trading was not very active, but
the greater part or the onenngs was ais
pcted of In good season.
There wero not enough cornfed steers on
sale today to tell anything about the mar
ket, very uneven prices nave Deen paia an
the week, so that, while some sales look
considerably lower than thosa ot a lt
ago, others look fully steady. The reason
is tnat so rew corn came are coming mat
It Is difficult for anyone to tell much about
aluea. It Is certain, however, that these
part-fat cattlo are very slow sale.
There were a good many cows on ths
market this morning and the quality was
better than usual. Owing to the big run
all tho week buyers were rather slow about
taking bold and a alow, weak market re
sulted. As compared with Monday the
prices paid today looked 154f2So lower on
tho general run. Strictly choice grades
were perhaps not that much lower.
Bulls and stags wero also slow today
and a little lower for the week. Veal
calves did not show much change.
There waa a big supply of blockers and
feeders In sight and owing to the fact that
speculators already bad mora cattle than
they could sell they were very slow about
buying more unless they were cholco C om
it on Ulna in particular were naxa 10 ais
pose of at any price. Tha quality of the re
ceipts all the week has been very Inferior
and In fact a good many claim that tha
quality this week has been the poorest of
the season. Tha feeder division Is full of
cattle of common to fair quality, which are
hard to move at a decline of Z5c, as cour
iered with tha close of last week.
Tnero were oniy a tew western peer steers
on sale this morning and ,no uartlculr
change In ths market was noticeable. Any.
thing cnoico soia witnout much trouble,
while tho common stuff waa alow, ths same
as usual. Range cows wera slow and uk
or 15i25o lower than on Mondj y. Blockers
ana metiers aieu very auit witn prios
ranging iwa20o lower for tho week. Repro

HOG 8 Receipts of hogs wero light thia
morning, as will bo seen from the table
above, but as others markets were quoted
BMlOc lower prices eased off a little here.
The bulk of the hogs sold a shade easier
than yesterday, so the market could be
quoted all the way from steady to 60 lower,
or generally 2c lower. The big end of
the receipts sold at $6.72 and $6.75, with
the choicer loads selling mostly from $6.75
to $6.80. Heavy packing grades sold from
$6.72 down. Trading was fairly active, so
It was not long before most everything
was out of first hands. There was no
particular change In the market from start
to finish. Tha decline today took away
just about half ot yesterday's advance and
makes the market 254jOOc lower than tho
close of last week. Representative sales;

SHEEP Thero were not enough sheep
and lambs here today to make a test of
the market, but the few that did arrive
sold at what looked to be about steady
K rices with yesterday. A bunch of native
tmbs sold as high as $5.15 and some natlvo
ewea brought $3.26. 1
For the week the tendency of prices has
been downward on all classes. The re
celpts have been liberal, while the demand
from tno country lor issuers u iwn
limited. Prices on the common to fair
feeder lambs have suffered fully 25c and In
some cases more, wnne ine oetter graces
are 104jl5e lower. Feeder sheep ars also
about ltU2iC lower man liiey were a wees
ago. Fat eiheep nave nem up rainy wen,
but still they are fully a dime lower than
at the close of last week. Owing to ths
hra&k In fat Iambs at other points
prices here also took a drop of about 25c.
The demand on the part of killers has been
In fairly good shape all the week, but the
liberal offerings gavo them a chance to buy
their supplies lower. v
