FAVORITES WEAK.

Northern Pacific Sugar Trust and Cotton Oil
Pounded by the Bears-Serious Disa-
greement Said TO Exist in the
Directory of the Former
Bonds Tumble.
NEW YORK, September 2U-The stock mar
ket to-day remained in the dull and listless
state into which it had fallen, and outside one
or two stocks in the regular list and the trusts
presented no feature of interest The opening
was extremely dull and fairly steady, with the
dealings almost exclusively professional. and
the fluctuations were confined to the usual
limits of small fractions. The Coal stocks were
the strong feature, and Jersey Central moved
up on good buying supposed TO be for insiders,
which was accompanied by rumors Of a new
company's commercial tonnage, though they
could not be confirmed. The stock touched III.
Northern Pacific preferred was weak again,
the impression having been created in some
place In the directory, and the hope which had
been induiged in of dividends upon the pre-
ferred stock on January were given up. This
caused some selling, and the stock was the only
one in the regular list which showed any de-
clded weakness, dropping over per cent. The
Grangers were generally quiet but firm, and
the earnings of Northwestern, showing gain
of II per cent, were well received. Louisville
crossed II again. but huctuated over an ex-
tremely narrow range for the most active stock
of the day. Sugar Trust sold ex-dividend and
became mark for the bears, who hammered
it down ~ per cent on the reiteration of the
old rumors of an issue Of bonds.
Cotton Oil was also specially weak and
dropped over / per cent, though it was init
mated to-day that the block of stock which
had been on the market had been nearly closed
out. The general list after steady opening
was dull, but firm in the forenoon, and frac-
tional advances were the rule, but the dullness
and the weakness in the leading shares in
duced some selling by the smaller holders, and
the list sagged away again. Later in the day it
was dull and heavy with insignificant changes,
though declines we're more numerous jersey
Central was up 1ss. but Northern Pacific pre-
ferred was down 1hs, Sugar Trust 2z, and Cot
ton Oil N.
Railroad bonds were dull. and the only feat
ure was the renewed activity and strength in
the Kansas and Texas issues, the skies con-
trbuting Sl4l 900 to the days total of only $780,
600. The rest of the issues traded in showed
generally a reactlve spirit, and the final
changes are in most cases in the direction of
lower prices. Milwaukee, Lake Shore and
Western firsts rose 81, to 128

Checking to make up pay rolls was good
YESTERDAY but bankers reported other lines
rather slow, especially discounting, although
it was better than at the beginning OF the
month. Something is done in this line every
day. whereas formerly the demand for loans
was fitful and cratic with nothing doing Tor
days together. The currency pressure is easing
up. and the silver dvllar is less nimble than
few days ago. The weather was against busl-
ness but a return of clear Skies with sug'
gestion of frost in the atmosphere. will make

Sheridan to do in the valley. The clearings

The Wall Street NelDs OF yesterday remarks:
ssMost of the traders who take a sensational II
not lugubrlous view of the monetary situa-
ton are inclined to look for the wiping out OF
the reserves in Saturdays bank staten ent. A
representative of this paper, in order to probe
the true condition OF affairs, had interviews
with most of the presidents of the down town
the situation might, in bearish quarters, be
considered strained it is by no means ominous.
The banks will not lose any 50 OOO,OOO this week,
as has been reported. and even though the re-
serves should get down to the legal require
ment mark no danger need be apprehended,
because prompt action is sure to be taken ny
the Washington officials, and money on call
probably will not rise above 6per cent. Time
funds are still offered at the low rates notice
able during the past week or two, and consid-
er1ng the healthy demand for money in all
legitimate business circles, 8 per cent for the
time being can neither be regarded as phenome-
nal or even unusual.
"a telegram from Washington SAYS that the
estimated requirements of the sinking fund Tor
the present fiscal year are S4S 900. The total
amount already applied to this purpose since
hAa~ nf Hd0n 4tHo
of bonds is $50 94O, 573. The principal of these
bonds was S27. .237, 600, and the premium pail,
S5702973 The expenditures on account of the
bonds included sA. A.257 54l tor $40. 053, $50 per
cents and S. 6S3 O32 for s. 1S4 $50 ~ per cents.
There is yet about SIS, 100000 required for sink
ing fund purposes"
Money on call at New FORK yesterday was easy
at 1864 per cent, last loan 4, closed offered
at 4. Prime mercantile paper, 5Q7. Sterling
exchange quiet and weak at 81 81 for 60-day
