NEW YORK, July 14-The volume of dealings today was conslderablv less than yesterday. The msrket waa still one of a good deal of animation and breadth and good absorptive power for the large offer ings 10 tase pronta wnen they were thrown upon It Some incongruity was recognized In the simultaneous upward movement of Union Pacific and Northern Securities which occurred yesterday on the rumor of mis aecision. which must necesssrllv be to the advantage of one party and at the cost or the other. The speculative nature of yesterday's movement In these stocks tnus strongly pointed to Increased dlsposl tlon to sell them and take profits. A blunt R renouncement from the president of the orthern Securities company of skepticism of the government's wheat estimate as far too unerai and a rrank admisalon from the president of the Atchison of the se rious damage to the wheat crop wrought by the ralne caused more serious attention to be given to that Important question man yesterday and gave added effect to the rather alnrmlng estimates by the Kan- Ban iiaio agricultural omctais. The more favorable condition of the mt ton crop and the renewed foreign demand for that staple, proved, of some benefit to the cotton carrtere. notably Lbulsvlllo Nashville and Southern railway. These stocks shared with Reading. Amalgamated Copper and Peoples' Oas the role of sus taining points in the market. The advances were not accounted ror by anv ape cine news and they were not efficacious In holding the market, which sold off to the lowest point of the day In the final hour. The reported prospect of a settle ment of the meat packer's strike was Ig nored as much as the Inanition of the strike.

The few steers offered sold at satisfactory prices to the packers. There is no very certain demand, however, and shippers are taking long chances in forwarding stock to market now. The larger part of the small run con sisted of range cows. Packers could handle the few on sale, and trades made were quite satisfactory. The same condi tions prevail In this division a In beef stems, and shippers should keep In close touch with tha situation. There were very fe v stock cattle on sale. The demand is moderate from both the county and yard traders and the mar ket is dull all around. Prices are not much different, but there is little Inquiry for feeding stock. STEERS AND HEIFERS.

It must be remembered that the trade is purely speculative and the demand, while sufficient to force i rices up here and at other markets.
