'I ha tiuiiiiTous tuilures which oc curred jeeteruay vn the continent served to clear ttie utniosphere and create the l.u- presKlun that the weak spots were now uncovered and ttie mystery and suspense relieved. The extreme depression on Rus sians, which has been tne cause, of the tinuiici.il troubles in France and Germany, has been aggravated by the Japanese naval successes, and the latest artair at fort Ar thur was an antidote to this and helped tne bournes who are committed to Russian securities. The buying of today was attributed largely to Wie short Interest. Observations we.e made that there was some slight buy ing from commission houses despite the low level of prices, that It was not large was sutticleniiy attested by the volume of the market. The further rise in wheat and the fall In cotton were In response to the war in eastern Asia. The strength In Sterling exchange was an Index of some lurther pressure on the foreign money markets, but exchange eased oft during the U.iy on the realization that there might be considerable delay in the Panama, canal payments, owing to the questions raised In the h rench courts. There was less money uttering here to loan on time and the de mand for the longer periods showed an appreciable Increase. 1 ne average oi me oay s gains lor me most active stocks was above a point.

Duyers seemed to want a few cattle and started out in fairly good season, und trad ing was more brink than It has been at any time this week. The bulk of the offerings was dli-poaed of In fairly good season. About the usual proportion of the offer Ings cot.siBted of cornfed steers and the matkei on the desirable grades was quite active and strong to a dime higher than esterdny's general market. The commoner kinds of course were not particularly brisk. but still even those sold to a little beiteH advantage than they did yesterday, 'itiey v pre at least easier to sell, even If the prices paid were not much higher. The cow market was more nctlve und, If anything, the good to choice grades were a little stronger, particularly than yester day's close. As compared with the early sales, there, probably was no improvement. Tho commoner kinds were rather neglecied and sold In much the same notches they did yesterday, as buyers did not seem 10 be particularly anxious for that kind. Bulls, veal calves and stags also fulled to show any noticeable Improvement from yeBterday, prlcer being practically tne same. There were not very many stockers nnd feeders on pale this morning and the de mand was sufficient to hold prices generally steady. Tho demand from the country yesterday was fairly good, all things con sidered. It le to be noticed, however, that the den and Is confined nlmnst entirely to the better grades and for that reaeon spec ulators very seldom buy warmed-up cattle unless they are of good quality and clean.

As compared with the hl;ri time Monday the general run of the offer ings Is nround a nuarti r lower, while some of the more desirable grades nre probably not as much off ns that. There teems to be a good undertone to the trade, so that prices nre not so much different from those In force a week ago. Very little Li doing In the feeder line, nnd In fart not enough to make a market. Prices could probably be quoted about nearly.
