Sent. 25 Yester.i. v s lata events In the stock market aroused serious apprehenslono that disastrous results might 00 witnessed today. As Is often the case In speculative matters, the threatened harm Incited to efforts to counteract It. There were strong; tirotectlve measures adopted In the stock market to check thu precipitate decline In prices whlrh threat ened the violent shrinkage of credits. There were feverish and erratic fluctua tions durlna the BrreHter linrt of the morn ing, but the supporting measures finally proved or errect and the market quieted down and berame steady at a level of val ues substantially above last night. There waa some unsettlement again In the final dealings, but the pressure was again re sisted and the market closed steady and dull, but below the best. The liquidation was continued with considerable force this morning, especially In the United States Steel securities. Both classes of stock and the second mortgage bonds opened at new low records and kept the early market un settled in spite of support by powerful financial Interests at other points. When the fact developed that the buying to sup- lort tne market did not follow the acivanro n prlres to any extent, the bears made a determined drive in an nttempt to regain tne Upper hand. They centered tllo atlacK upon United States Steel preferred, appar ently equipped with the knowledge of the existence of a considerable stop-loss order In that stock at about Si. Its movement fter touching that point proved the ac curacy of the bears' Information or surmise. the price slumping to e1)'; with a rapid re covery, however, on covering by the shorts. The common stock touched 1. and the bonds 70' during the dav. The general market weakened again In response to this drive, but prices generally got s:igntiy below last night's level. The uncovered bears took alarm at this evidence of ef fective support and bought largely to cover their shorts. The pnncipai r.t-tivs s'."rK afterward got from 1 to 2 polnls over laat night. There were wide declines both on the Stock exchange and In the outsldo market In some securities for which there Is not an active market, but speculative sentiment on the whole was considerably Improved as a result of the day's events. The firmness of the later market was helped by the preliminary estimates of the week' currency movement, which promise a merely nominal change In the cash hold ings of the banks. The large shipments of currency to the south and a small loss on stibtreasurv operations proper was slightly more than offset by receipts from other sources, Including new gold. The heavy liquidation In the stock market gives fair promise of some reduction In the loan Item and the deposit liabilities. Money was rather firmer today both for time loans and on call, and a further fall In New York exchange nt Chicago brought the market nearer to '.he point for ship ping currency west. There was a sharp break In sterling exchange, which waa partly In response to the firmer money market here. There was also a larger sup ply of commercial bills In the exchange market.. It is also reported that some of the Interior banks are selling demand bills here for the purchase or grain. tk wAcir'a evoorts of wheat show an Increase of more than 2,000.000 bu. over the previous week, and the decline In the cot ton market. It Is believed, will Induce an Increased foreign demand. The bond market was Irregular. Total sales, par value. $2,252,000.

WOOL The Commer cial Bulletin will say tomorrow: Wool Is very firm. London advlcea In dicate an advancing tendency and at the auction sales prices have scored a further advance since the opening Improvement. There Is still an active Inquiry for me dium and low wools, and Boston dealers have bought heavily this week in Ohio, Michigan and other sections at extreme prices, practically cleaning up all such wool available in the west. In Ohio 234c has been paid and In Michigan 22c flat, this being 23c to 27c In Boston. The pur chases do not show a profit on today's market, but as It Is a long time to the new clip and foreign substitutes are practically shut out dealers believe that there will be a handsome profit In the near future. The shipments of wool from Boston to date from December 31. 1902. are 171.203.546 Ins., against 203,034.102 lbs. at the same date last year.

Chicago was quoted lower and that, together with the liberal recelDts. made the market here slow and lower on most grades. there were only a few cars or corn fed steers on sale, and as the aupply of that class of cattle has been small all the week, packers bought the des.lrs.ble grades at about steady prices. Trading, however, was slow and anything on the warmed-up order was if anything a little lower. There was a good supply or cow stun in sight, and as packers were all pretty well tilled up for the week they did not take hold with any life and the market could best be decribed by calling It slow and a little lower. Anything strictly choice prob ably would have sold about steady, aa that class has been scarce all the week. The general run of cows, though, were un doubtedly lower. Bulls were also slow sale and a little lower than yesterday. The same was true Of calves and stags. - The stocker ana reeaer marxei was very dull except for the best grades. Anything strictly choice sold In about yesterday s notches, but there were very few answer ing to that description. The majority of the onerings were 01 jusi lair quality auu thev were slow and lower, while common atuff waa almost impossible to move at any price. There were a good many rattle carried over from yesterday in the hands of speculators and for that reason they did not want many iresn suppiim. There was practically nothing on sale this morning In the way of choice range beef steers. A few cattle of that kind might have sold about steady, but the gen eral run auch as were on sale were un doubtedly lower and slow at that. West ern cows were slow end a little lower and the same could be said or sioctters ana feeders except where the quality was ex ceptionally good. Representative ealea: p 1 cj.en.

O. Dun Co."s Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will aay: Notwithstanding several unsatisfactory features the volume of trade continues large. Announcement of a concerted 1 fort to restrict production of pig iron in dicate that supplies have begun to sc. cumulate. Hallway earnings tontlnue to show gains, September thus far exceeding last year by S.7 and l'l by 17.2 per 0 1.1. Traffic blocgades occurred to some extent, although the movement of product I un seasonably small. Labor controversies have begun, a number of serious trotiln.s have been averted, but on the whole the trouble has diminished. Forced Idleness in Iron and steel Is more than nflif t by the resumption of splnd.es at cotton -11 II 1m hihI there Is great activity at 'ootnei.i tjc tories, although the margin ot profit Is narrow. Lower prices for the leading agricultural staples Indicate a general belief In Improved crop prospects. Jobbing trade Is still making go.nl com parisons with previous years, ami whnu the genlth has been r''l 'all dry goods It was still a satisfactory season. At many lmortsnt points the weather hat been more propitious tor retail trade and collections have been fairly prompt. Demand for finished Iron ami stel li restricted by uncertainty teganilng quota tions, and until H more settled condition prevails there will be no tendency to ci n- tract liberally. Owing to the demoralized condition of manufacture supplies of pin iron have accumulated and it is generally agreed among leading producers that a curtailment of blast furnace output !a necensary. As to woolens, tlve best business is no ticed in dress goods, while men's wear fabrics sre quiet. ,., Failures this week numbered 232 In the t'nlted States, against 2o7 last jear, aid 17 In Canada.
