VALUES ARE AGAIN UNSETTLED Movement la Straggling; and Mixed to a. Marked Degree A roe r lean "melting; Marked Dan n. NEW YORK, Sept. IS The stock market today showed the relief afforded by the speculative liquidation which has been af fected during the week. The pressure was lightened and the requirement of the short Interest left uncovered was sufficient to cause aome rally. The tone waa unsettled and uncertain and the movement of prices straggling and mixet to an unusual degree. Developments outside the technical specu lative position of the market were not im portant except for an easier tone. In rates in call money. Taken in connection with the heavy cash decrease for the week In dicated by the preliminary estlmatea, the action of the call loan market waa Inter preted to mean that substantial reduction of loan account had been made In connec tion with the liquidation at the Stock ex change. Signs of further weakness were to be seen here and there in the market The lack of action towards a disbursement of the Great Northern Ore certificatea arouses the fear that the dividend Is to be omitted. American Smelting continued to suffer from the excess of the former speculation and. In some degree, from a further marking down In the prlcea of Copper. Rcporta of copper trade conditions were not encouraging and ttie lapse of the demand for thai metal glvea credit to reporta of a similar lull In the Iron and ateel trade. A revival of the subject of Increased freight rates Is considered significant also of continued unsatisfactory conditions in the railroad earnings. On the other hand, industrloua use waa made at the Stock exchange of rumors of some coming an nouncement that was to benefit the mar ket and: the nature of which waa not dis closed. These rumors Increased the dis position of tlie shorts to cover their tracks andvwlth the subsidence of pressure on the Veak spots, the upward movement gained In definiteness. Konds heavy. Total snles, rar value, 11.970.000. United States bonds unchanged on call.

For the five daya the receipts foot up 40,314 hegd, as against 2S,8ob head for the sumo clays last week and 31,103 ne.cd tor tho suniu period a yeur ago. No new features were developed In tho cattle trade today, the market remaining about stationary with yeslerduy's clone. For tho week, however, there has been a big change. The very bent beef ateers limy not be over 15ij20c lower, but a con siderable proportion of tho fair to pretty decent kinds of killers show a drop In values of 2o450c. Cows and heifers have also suffered severely, being quoted around 4o'u60c lower than last week at this time. The best fleshy feeders have been very good sellers all the week, being at the present time only about 16'(i25o lower than 11 week ago. The general run of common to medium feeders have suffered the worst, and they are selling around 20'sjioc lower, uccordlng to kind and quality.

The trade todi.y waa blow and of an In different character, without any very note Worthy change in prlcea as compared wlih yesterday, ll seemed as If everyone wus tired out, both buyers and sellers, and nil were giad of a lighter run and a chance to tuko things a little easier. Thus no one seemed In any hurry to do business und the dullness and Indifference of the trade was in strong contrast to tha uctlvlty pre vailing on previous days tills week. Still, thu offerings gradually changed hands and in the end the bsru was cleared as usual. A comparison between prices now pre vailing und those of a week ago will show very little cliaiu.'i In fat lambs, with the bulk of the feeder lambs seldng a little lower. Fat sheep have dropped IWj) 10c, but feeder sheep and yearlings have remained about stationary and ara selling just about as well as the killers.
