Cattle With a rather liberal Monday's
run of cattle, about 8,000 head, the mar
ket lost much of the activity that ehnrae
terized trade last week and trend of
vhIiks was lower. Strictly desirable
beeves on the handyweight order were in
good demand from both nv-ckers and ship
pers, and $9.00 was paidi again. On the
onilnary run of both btaf steers and cows
bids and sales were generally 15(g25c low
er than last week's best time. Inquiry
for stockera and feeders was fairly broad
and prices Just about steady.
It developed thut there were compara
tively fei stock cattle and feeding steers
on sale and as buying became more free
the market Improved steadily land prices
were in many cases 2'c higher, hay fed
steer selling, up to $i.t5,

holders pf these shares would or
would not ' be more frightened at
the actual publication of these figures
than they were at the movement of
trade and prices several months ago.
which made the greatly reduced earn
ing and surplus inevitable.
On their face, the reports of some of
these producing and trading companies
show a ehar.ge which is possibly nioro
sensational thail has been shown at any
time since the trade reaction of 1903. On
each . occasion, the striking part of the
uteui pa risons was not the income account,
but the balance sheet, and in the balance
sheet it is the .shrinkage of inventory
valued and consequent depletion of woik
iiC capUal which attracts attention now,
as--it did when thu earlier confident ac
cumulation of merchandise, yn an exten
sive scale and with a view to higher
prices, was followed by sudden cessa
tion of buying and fall in prices. .
Leather Less Sensational.
Such a loss us the Ceatral Leather)
decrease in hook surplus from $4n.9.
000 at the end of 1919 lb $4,757,1)00 at
the end of 1920 may no doubt bo described
as sensational. It amounts practically to
the wiping out of the accumulated "wap
profits." Hut it remains the essential
fact that suchi extiibits, though by no
means all as Jformidablc as this one,
were foreshadowed by the sudden and
viol, nt fall in urlees for such companies
products as by the. . "consumers; strike"
and by last year's decline in their snares
on the Stock Exchange. . This being so,
there is nothUig either new nor surprising
in the statements and the simple question
from Wall street's viewpoint would seem
to be, whether or not the 30 la. 70 per
cent decline in the stocks of the com
panies in q.uetion, since last spring, had
"discontinued" what has actually hap
pened. Happenings on the stock marke were
of variable scope today. A few stocks
w hieh were tinder special professional
pressure, lost 3 to 6 paints apiece and de
clines of a point . or thereabouts were
rather nunferoua. But the day's movements-were
not at all uniform. Not even'
tho industrial list as. a whole, was affect
ed to any great extent, .and 'the railroad
shares as a group held firm. That stocks
of copper-producing companies, whose
earnings are bound up closer thafc those
of others with the market value of their
product, should have been objects of at
took on the asis of their current re
ports, was a natural part of the day's
program. f
No Disturbing Influences.
There were no disturbing influences
In the general news. The money market
remained un hanged; showing the disposi
tion to keep in hand the expansion of
e-redit until the federal reserve has re
gained the strong position which it lost
through the extravagant inflation of 1919.
It has not done 1his yet. though the
progress in that direction has been rapid
and the results of last week's operations
altogether gratifying. The six per cent
rate for call money was officially quoted
again today. 'At London .the money,
stringency . continued. While it is likely
to coitlnue for some time to come may
