The main feature In the situation was an advance of d In tha price of wheat at Liverpool, notwith standing yesterday's decline of almost to on tha local exchange.

UNDERTONE HEAVY, WITH LOW TENDENCY Amalgamated Copper Rises Sllabtlr on Ramnr of Increased Dividend la London. NEW YORK. Oct. 17,-Tbe currents In the market were again sli'gplsh today and transactions were on a small scale. Within the narrow compass of the movement, how ever. It showed a reversal of yesterday' form. The undertone was heavy sa ('un treated with the restating tendency of yes terday s dull market. Such shifting of the current of prices from day to day I not unususl In a narrow professional mar ket and represents not more than the ef fort to secure an advantage point for over coming the Inertia of the market by turn ing prices for a slightly wider oscillation. Proilts on scalping operator were meager In today's market and there was little else doing. News developments were again bearing on conditions were also scanty, although a few slocks were effected by special causes. Amalgamated Copper was very moderately affected by the supposition thru the dividend rate will be raised to 8 per cent at tomorrow's meeting of ttv di rectors or by the excited Jump of the lmdon copper market of over S a ton in the price of the metal. New Yotk Cen tral waa rather markedly heavy. Th1a was attributed to selling of the stock against new stock subscriptions, the, demand for the rights to subscribe proving unimportant. 1 onsoiinatert tHis showeil the runner erreci of the Injunction to forbid the company from shutting off gas from consumer who refuse to pay more tran the 8 cent" statute mte. The determination of Albany & PuBciuphanna'a stockholders to contest with the I tinware & Hudson, lessor, the saving of refunding at a reduced rate of Interest had some reflection In the stock of the latter. The sngfrlng tendency of the market was somewhat emphaalxed by the flurry In call money to 64 per cent late In the dsy. Re lated borrowers made the rate, but the Incident called attention to the fact that the recent stream of replenishment of bank reserves by gold Imports and by depnelt of government funds has been arretted. At the same time money continues to go to the interior In large amounts on th ex press movement. The shipment of $3,000. 000 to Toronto to fortify the banks th"re Is also against th local banks. The course of the foreign market this week has Indi cated a check to the heavy remittances In pavment of foreign Indebtedness matur ing and this would carry with. It a cessa tion of the new borrowing from local binlts to meet these foreign payments. Today's weekly statement of the Imperial Bank of Germany showed substantial recuperation from the depleted resources caused bv the October 1 settlements, and the Rank of England made a considerable addition to its bullion holdings. The downward course of sterling exchange In this market, how ever Is checked. The statement of our September foreign trade for September. Is sued by the bureau of statistics at Wash ington, was scanned with attention for Its bearing on the exchange situation. The 83.000.000 Increase In export for the money due to manufactured exports la contrasted with an expansion of less than $1,000,000 n Import, the large Import movement hav ing set In by this time last year. The In crease of $2,000,000 In the excess value of exports for the month compared with Inst year's must be regarded as but a moderate contribution to the expanded measure of our foreign borrowings, for the liquidation of which merchandise exports are rellod on. Moreover, the excess of gold Imports for the month rose to $29,141,010, compared with $4,130,788 last year, the difference rep resenting a reduction of over-credit np plv with foreign marketa. The tock mar ket closed easy with little recovery from the late decline. Bonds were Irregular. Total salea, par value. $2,088,000. United States bond were unchanged on call.

Trains which might to arrive srly In ths morn- ing comes stringing In nil Ilie forenoon nd j It is a rralter of luck If they are all In even by midday. At 7 8" this morning only three csrs hsd arrived, and at n clock there were onlv about thirteen , fresh loads In eight. This nsturally mks sn sll rltv msrset. with prices more or : lees uneven, scrordlng to the time the 1 stuff l put on ssle. j Reports from sll selling points were very discouraging this morning and packers were all on th' bear aide. Aa one of thetti remarked. "This Is the season of the yeae 1 to expect a break In prlcea, and It looks now as If the market was on ths dowa grsde and would be likely to continue that way for a time, hence liuyrra feel In no htirry to make purchases, believing that 1 what they fall to get todny they will be , able to secure st still lowr rrlce the i next day." When buyers feel this way the market Is naturally alow and dull, and that waa the rase todsy. As to price : there was a decline of lotil.V as eompsred I with yesterday's general market. As a matter of course a comparison with yes terday's lowe close would not show that 1 much drcllne : Representative sales I No. A Sb. va ' - 11 II ... f n 1 fat n 4 t 11 47 ... sn fr It" 4 ts 17 Ill ... sn so 4 40 I l II 11 ... 0 .171 40 It 1?4 IM ...

Every morning the big barn are crammed o full of aheep and lamba that It Is hard work to move them toward the scale, but before nlpht everything Is dlixised of and the barns cleared rendy for the next morning run. For th week to date recelpta are de. cldedly In exceas of laat week, as will be noted from the tables at head of column. Still, they have been none Ioo large to satisfy the requirements of buyers. This morning the trade opened early, with I packers, as usual, picking out the fat I sneep, for which they paid Just about the ! same prices as yeaterday, there being no 'material change, at leaat none worth quot , lng. Fat lambs sold very high on Monday i and, while they are not bringing quite as l good prices as on that day, thry are selling I generally as good as last week. In other words, the market is Just about where It was at the wtndup lust Friday or Satur day. Feeders continue In good demand and It does not seem to matter how large the re ceipts are; there are buyers for everything that comes snd prices remain so nearly Ktntlonary that It la a difficult matter to see any material change from day to day. No one could ask for a more even mar ket than has prevailed at this point for some little time back. There 1 a good deal of Inquiry for breeding ewe and It la safe to say that there are twenty buyer to every seller; the fact Is. It Is almost Im possible to fill orders for breeding ewes, as they are not to be had. A buyer remarked this morning that he would pv 16.00 for choice yearling ewes, but he might a well have made It 87.00, as ewes of that kind are not to be had at any price.
