THE MARKETS.
Stocks Weak, Feverish, and Irregular
Wheat Nervous and Unsettled.


NEW YORK, Sept. 1O.-Thc stock market to.
day has been dull fcverish, and irregular, and
during the afternoon decidedly weak. Promi
nont officials connected with some Of the lead
ing coal companies say that the condition is
going from bad to worse, and that the most
serious results must follow unless a change IS
made soon. Conservative houses continue to
advise their customers not to buy at present
figures. Much interest continues to be felt In
the transactlon consummntCd yesterday by tho
Union Pacific, by which II has Mt least changed
the character Of its floating debt. The street,
however, regards the proceedings as suspicious.
" Is agreed that ifthe arrangement was de.
eidedly iayorablo one as Is claimed II would
undoubtedly be made public.
Reference is made TO the fact that President
Adams at the end OF the fiscal year gave an
unusually large report, showing all the facts
conuected with the company In detail, aud
this policy was approved by the stockholders
Now, however, he changes his plan and keeps
from the stockholders what the street Is in
clincd to believe ~ untavOrablc Information,
but to which the stockholders are entitled.
Opening pricef this morning did not differ ma.
toiially from the closing quotations yesterday,
but the highest prices today in most cases
were made at or soon after 10 O'Clock. Al
though the market was very irregular, tho
fluctuations generally were within n narrow
range, and In a few instances prices slightly
higher were made after midday. Very dc.
cided weakness was developed, however In
the afternoon. An effort was made to check
me decline Just before p. M, which resulted
In closing the market In many cases small
fractions above lowest figures.
