NEW YORK. Oct 1.-The fair In prices
In stocks ennals that In some of the panic
periods of the past. The market was at
times In a cert'Hon bordering on demoral
Iratlon. Cond'ttons at no tme. however,
slipped Into art "a I panic, although there
was a ruthless ala'eMer of vsb'Sbles thst
bore a close resemblance thereto. At no
I'm", however, e the whole I'st emhrsed
In the slump. There were points of com
parative resistance throughout, hut these
grew less as the dny progressed and the
wen''em enread throughout the market.
Another feature of the market, compared
with the slumping periods of the rasst. Is
the comparatively small volume of trad'ng.
dea""s for the dav rising hut little over
a million shares, compared with J.nno.mn to
over 2fWl shnees In similar periods of
past markets. This Is the result of the
retirement from Wall street for many
months past of some of the big seml-pro-fesstonal
speculative pledgers, whose ms-n'n-'lat've
tactics made lift tnoeh of the
total of great days In the past. The knowl
edge of th'a fact has festered a siiopos'
tlon that ninrglnal holdings of stock hnd
diminished to unimportant proportions. Tho
experience of the pst few days goei ta
roreect this Impression.
There was a brief experience of cheer
fulness after the market opened, when
prices rose slightly and hones were enter
tained that the cut In the dividend on
Amalgamated Conner had been discounted
In the trading yesterday, and that the an
nounced solvency of the Mercantile Na
tional bank, after Investigation br a clear
ing house committee had removed that suh
.leet fr-" the realm of the disturbing fac
tors. This short l'ved gleam of eonsh'ne
was the last of It that was seen during the
dev. Pr'ces rsNled fevershlv at times In
the parses In the 1loiiMatln. but there was
no feel'ng of confidence at any time that
the purging process was vet comnleted. The
weai'pes at first was prett-v closely eon
fined to the copper stocks. The condition of
the corner Industry was given responsibility
for th's for a time, and a contlnnance of
the decline In the) price of ennoer Indicated
that the point of effective -demand had not
been reached yet. With the prospect thus
afforded of a possible complete shut down
of production by the Amalgamated proper
tlea and the recollection of the successive
reductions which occurred In the dividend
on the stock In 190S, the disposition fo get
out of holdings seemed to be general. It
was evident that urgent pressure on tho
part of money lenders was a factor 1n
the crash In American Smelting, and the
forced liquidation In that stock was associ
ated with the cleaning tip process going on
amongst the hanks. It was an Inkling of
tho fact that the clearing house authorities
were d'senssing the affairs of some other
banks that caused the general weakness
In stocks. The knowledge of this fact de
prived reassuring statements on the sub

Prior to that time the market had been
Inlrly stesdy, although prices were some
wlittt lower, owing to a further decline at
Liverpool following a sharp break there
yesterday. Larger receipts In the north
west also had a depressing effect early
In the day. About noon prices dropped

show a heavy Increase. Both took ad
vantage of the situation and sold freely,
which caused still further weakness. Late
lit the dny prices rallied about 1 from
the low point on covering by shorts. Tho
close was.falrlv steady. December opened
a shade lower to HipVic higher, at $1.02 'A

to 98c. The close was at $1.01. May
ranged between $1.05 jf 1.0SH and csed

Hhown by Hradstreot'a; were equal to
5,000.000 bushels. Primary receipts were

000 bushels tho same day a year ago.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts of 797 cars, agulnst 771 cars lust
week and &AV cars a year ago.
The corn market was weuk all day be
cause of selling Induced by the break In
wheat and by fnvorable weather for the
maturing of'the new crop. Demand from
shippers was tame and offering! of new
corn from the country were much moro
liberal. Primary receipts were almost
twice as largcsaain the eame day a year
ago, which further weakened the markot.
'1 he close waa weak. December opened
unchanged to a shade , lower, at 00
Slo, sold off to R9c and closed at 0c.

tnorities necomlng more denned, however,
and restricted to the rleld of newer activities
In banking on the part of forces generally
recognized for lack of conservatism, a bet
ter Impression of the situation gained some
foothold. Restricted as was the field of
readjustment sought In the hanking situa
tion, however, the fact that the banking
position waa under criticism at all had Its
usual grave effect on confidence, and was
the sufficient explanation of the disquiet
painted In the record of the day's slock
in irket.
Tho grain markets also reflected the scal
ing down of credits employed In speculation.
Some Influence waa attributed to reports
that yesterday's Hamburg failure was more
important than was at first supposed, thus
presenting so close a parallel to the local
situation as to appeal to sentiment. The
German Bourse, however, was not seriously
disturbed. The strong return of the Im
perial Bank of Germany was regarded with
satisfaction. Call money loaned at the Stock
exchange as high as 10 per cent, but this
waa regarded as due to discrimination be
tween borrowers and collateral rather than
to other grater tightness In the money
market. Estimates of the currency move
ment showed the movement still away
from balance, but It. did not appear that
this, would be more than. If so much, aa the
gain of $3,170,000 by the banks on aub
treasury operations. The closing tone was
weak and unsettled, in spite of the con
siderable rally of the last hour.
Bonds were lower, but were not notably
affected by the liquidation of stocks. Total
sales, par value, $2,414,000. Cnited States

Just About Steady.
NO VERY GREAT CHANGE ON H0G3

with All Kinds Very alow and
nail for Lack of Bny
Snpport.
turned out to be considerably larger than
the early estimate, making something line
ninety fresh cars In slant. The market
opened with a fair buying demand on the
part of shippers and speculators at prices
that were steady to a little stronger. In
1 some extreme esses there wrre sales thst
looked close to so higher than yesterday
! On the other band packers were all very
I slom- In Ukipg hold, being apparently not
1 disposed to pav snv stronger prices thsn
vestenlar. The result was that after specu
lators snd shippers had filled their orders
the trade became very slow und dull.

Autumn Business Broadens Under In
flusnee of Favorable Weather.

Cat
SHEEP The sheep market
wound up In bad slinpe. The
who have been taking feeder
lambs all the week at good steady prices
nltvd their orders and dropped out. leaving
the market without sufficient buying sup
port. The result was that the cloae was
not only extremely dull, but some of Ihe
lart sales In some Instances were possibly
1541 20c lower.
This morning there were liberal receipts
for Friday, with ouit a number carried
over from yesterday. It looked as If all
the country buyers had filled their orders
and bad returned home, so that tha mar
ket for feeders waa without support, ex
cepting such as came from regular yard
buyers who had orders to fill, but at lower
figures. Tae opening of the market wss
the (latest that It has been tu a great
while, and the forenoon dragged along with
very little business being done. Sellers
wera determined not to take oft while buy
ers were equally determined to secure a
good suable concession or leave the stuff
alone.
The market on killers also was dull, but
fortunately there was no great number of
good fat sheep in sight.
(Quotations on aood to choice killers:
I.umbH, $6.75(87.16: yearling wethers. $6.5o0,.
5.75; wethers. $4.90tf6.26; ?wes. $4 5044B.OU.
No quotations are given on fair to good
killers, as feeder buyers are taking prac
tically everything of that description at

weekly review of trade torn.rrrow will
say: '
Autumn retail trade broadens under tha
stimulating Influence of f avoraole w, athcr,
and collections also Improve. Jobbers, re
tx.rt that new lines lor spring arj w.-ll
received. l'Jates and structural material
are strong. Par mills have enough busi
ness to operate during (he balance of 1 1
year, even If no more orders were received,
in the textile Industrie the event, of tha
week was the cut In prices by a Chics 4a
hiiupe. There was no evidence of weak
ness In the cotton goods prior to that
reduction, which, In some lines, amounted,
to in per cent, and eastern Jobbers did not
follow tho western movement. Producers
are In New K j and sold so far aheatl
that there la n. accaslon for ,conces,on;
vet the tone of the Industry waa unsteady.
Dullness In the export division was ac
centuated, Chins confining purohaf)" to tlra
Manchester market, which la oelow a
parity with New York. Hides are mora
quiet and steadier, with slight advancea
In Borne packer varieties.
Leather remains unchanged In price and
the situation la uneventful. Heavy wttght
sole Is In best demand, tanners refusing
further orders on some descriptions uniesa
deliveries after January 1 will be accepted.
Light and middle weights are most abun
dant and concessions cviil bo eccured on
desirable business.
BRADSTHEET'S 11KVIKW OT TRADfil
Crops

and , Industrial Reporta
Rather Irregular.
NEW YORK, Oct. 18. Bradstrcefg to
morrow will say:
Trade, crop and Industrial reports ara
rather more Irregular. Interest as to di
trlliutive trade lias now largely peseed
from the wholesale and Jobbing branches
to the retail trade, the development and
proportions of which will be closely scruii
nlled from now on. So far the reports as
to this line are conflicting, being best In
parts of the northwest, southwest and
south, and relatively slack in the cast,
which needs sharp, cold weather for best
activities. Jober business Is fair a a
whole, It being nutod (hat house trnda is
nulet, while fllling-l orders vary with sec
tions reporting. The money stringency Is
an additional feature which attracts at
tention, afTectlng as It does the Item of
collections on past transactions. As to tha
Item of collection, too, It may be said that
holding of crops has been a subject of
complaint from several points. Special
note la made of the effects of a strike on.
the leveee at New Orleans, checking tha
Ijnovement and shipment of cotton. Ilia
feature this week In Cotton goons lias neen
the cutting of prices of a number of llnea
and of bleached goods by leading western
Jobbers. Teh net results has been an easing
and asking prices by second hands, but
wholesalers and mills claim that no reduc
tlona 'have been made. Yarns are lower,
with llttlo new business developing.
Undiminished activity and strength ara
reported In the" whisky trade at all mar
kets. At Cincinnati spirits have advanced,
to $1.35 this being the highest price for
forty years. Favorable weather for tho
European boct sUMir crops hss caused
weakness abroad and sympathies casing
here with riw sugar down 6 points. Busi
ness In iron and steel Is quiet. Cop
per la again weaker and more competi
tion for smaller dealers has developed.
