obvious distribution of stork going on to-
luy aid the selling to resllse protlts kept
he tone of the market unsettled and ir
regular and made considerable Inroads on
prices in the general Pst. The selling waa
conducted situ caution and skill with a
lew to cauao as little effect on prices as
possible, and gave evidence in that respect
of the experienced management , of the
speculative campaign. The bear contingent
maae some efforts to push the decline in
prices and take the, market away from the
sellers. The usual device of making se
lected storks iiii.til for sympathetic effect
on the general list was sdopted as a sus
taining Influence while the realising sales
wers going on. The coaler, a a group,
were the conspicuous example, especially
Reading, which was kept very active
throughout the session. Thus there was
revive! the old report or the intention to
use the privilege to exchange thst stock
half for first preferred and half for com
mon stork.
The rise In National Lead ws. due to a
report that 'he direncr had It In contem
plation to retire the preferred stock. A
reduction In rr'ce of some grades of cop
per was marie at the New York Metal ex
change, but the copper stock fared no
worse than the general list. .,
The crop promise is canvassed witn grow-
ns attention snd with increased anxiety.
and the backwardness of the development
of the winter wbtat crop, op Which the
hope for Improvcmtnt In its condition de
pends, adds to this fewling. Some Inereaard

CATTLE There was another very liberal
run of cattle, 133 car being reported In.
This makes the total for the four days
over 19.CO0 head, being the largest run for
any similar trf-rkxi since the second week
in March, and with that exception, the
largest ainoe January. With so many cat
tle in sight and with markets east breaking
down rapidly, the trade here has been very
slow and dull during the last two days,
with prices decidedly lower, Thl morn
ing, with receipts liberal for a Thursday
and wllh all-other markets -sending out re
ports none to encoursging. the trade was
extremely alow and dull, the Mint a yes
terday, and It wa well along In the latter
half of the forenoon before enough business
had been transacted to really establish
prices on killing enttle.
Feeders and stock cattle were the first
to sell this morning and they changed
hands early at prices thst were fully steady
with yesterday and as high as at any time
this season. The fact Is. that so few feed
era have ben received thla week that
there has not been enough to supply the
very moderate demand existing. Thus It has
happened that everything of that descrip
tion has met with very ready sals all week
at good, steady or strong prices.
It was well along toward midday be
fore enough business has been done In the
way of elllng beef steers to call It a mar
ket, and It was after noon before a clear
ance wa effected. Prices were around 10
15c lower again today, making the decline
for the week lSitT!5c at !eat.
Cow and heifers were also late In sell
ing, although they were a little more active
than beef steers. As a rule they sold woak
to a dime lower, making tha market 102i)c
lower than last week.
