WELSH, Local Forecaster. Weather Bureau. NEW YORK. Aug IS The stock mar ket today consistently continued lis reac tionary and eonfuaing course of the early week There wata the usual backing and filling during the early session, hut It was not until tha afternoon that practically the entire active list took a lower dip, which wiped out all early gains. Again It was the llarrlmsn lasuee which bore the brunt of the attack. The movement was short lived, however, and In spite of bullish rumors on New Tork Central and V'niled Ptates Steel, the latter accompanied by a revival of the Paris bourse listing rumor, the market turned weak and in the late sesalon became duller and more Irregular. It was regarded a somewhat signltlcant that the list was most unsettled Imme diately upon the publication of a series of dlsnatehea and statements, official and un official, concerning the state of health of an eminent magnate, now homeward bound from abroad. Reports of ser.ous harm to the crops In North Oakola from heavy ralna. which caused a smart advance In the wheat market were not without Influ ence upon stocks. Advices from Missouri and Kansas as to crop conditions were of a more favorable character, but Nebraska dispatches continued discouraging. The most aggressive selling and lowest prices came In the final half hour. I'nlon Faclfic was then about five points below Its top price of the morning -and the preferred siock over three points, while New York Central. Reading. Atchison, Great North ern preferred. Oreat Northern ore certlfl catea. Chicago V Northwestern. Pennsyl vania, the steel issues. Amalgamated Cop per, Consolidated Oas. People a Has and a score of less prominent Issues were lower by 1 to 4 points. Louisville Nashville and Canadian Pa cific were about the only stocks to hold their early gains. The selling was In enormous volume and numerous slop orders were uncovered. Prices at the close, which was active and feverish, showed but alight recoverlea from the lowest level. Time money was again strong, with an especial demand for four and live months' loans at 4 per cent. The supply la becoming more scarce, and a continuance of the present demand Is expected to advance the rate. More gold exports to South America are Impending, while shipments of S3.0jO.(kiO gold to Japan are scheduled for the coming month. Official flguree from Washington show an excess of almost S17. 000.000 In mer chandise Imports for July, compared with the same month last year. The only note worthy railroad return today was that of the Baltimore aV Ohio road, which reported the rather small Increase of :M.&"0 for July. The Industrial situation continues in the direction of Improvement, many mills and plants, according to today's advices, now working to their full capacity. The feature of the bond market was the activity of Lnlon Pacific convertible 4s, In which dealings were again very heavy, with a net loas for the day of 2S points.

Buyers were out In good season and they bought ihe desirable killers, both cornfeds and westerns, at prices that were atrong to 10c higher than yesterday. Good westerns sold as high as $5.76, while corn feda touched tC 40. the highest price paid so far this year, and the highest of any time since Pepiembcr of last year, when $7.50 was paid. Cows and heifers -were also In very fair demand and the desirable kinds sold in about the same notches as yesterday. The best feeders commanded good, strong prices and the trade waa fairly active on that kind. On the other hand, light and Inferior grades were slow to a little lower.

A better tone to the market was notloe able from the opening In practically every branch of the trade. Early aales of fat sheep, particularly wethers, appeared even aa much aa a dime higher In one or two cases, but top salea, aa la always the case, are not to be taken aa a true reflection of the condition of the bulk of the trade. The general market, however, waa In very fair condition and Is quotable as steady to u shade higher than yesterday. A band of fat wethers from Montana sold early ai $4.65. Quite a respectable string of fat lambs were included among the offerings and they commanded generally firm prices. The Inquiry was reasonablly good and while the trade could not be described as very active, still supplies changed hands In fa'r season. One or two salea, perhaps, were a trifle higher than yesterday, but strong spots were not numerous enough to war rant a boost of quotations, and most values ruled about steady. There was no change of any consequence In feeder trade. Aa was noted above, a good portion of supplies consisted of thin stock, but buyers were plentiful and most sales tickets carried generally steady fig ures.
