'1he HeaYlnesS Of the Market Was Due Pri-
EariIY to the Activity of The Bears,

COS DisIogcd Considerable Long
Stock and Shifting OF loans.

New York Aug. G.-Stocks to-day were
active and weak, the trading reaching
245,10S shares. an unusually large total.
The heaviness of the market was due
primarily to the activity or the pear
leaders. who. in the absence of bull sup
port, are practically in control OF the cur
rent speculation. AT the opening London
sold heavily of l.. 8; n. and other stocks
dealt in abroad The selling of the West
ern stocks was attributed TO the reports
OF damage to crops in the Northwest,
while L. & n. was depressed by the poor
traffic statement for July just published.
Following the foreign selling there was
an attack on the Changers, Manhattan
and Western Union by local operators.
Burlington and Quincy. as of late, was the
objective point and the stock made a new
low record, selling down to 5TA. 1t was
again stated that the directors Will be
compelled TO reduce the dividend on the
stock. The same argument was made
In the case of Manhattan and the stock
dropped lia to StS4. The break in prices
dislooged considerable long stock and tho
shifting OF loans followed. These forced
sales added to the depression and dis
Turbed confidence among marginal hold
ers generally. Money on time also work
ed closer ard highe! rates We're predict
ed. The failures in mercantile circles
and the suspensions at the Cotton Ex-
change also had their influence with the
discouraged bulls. The important losses

The corn market came to the front as
an interesting afrair this morning. Right
st the opening 4 bear raid was made and
prices slumped quickly. receiving little
support from any sourJ'. September

rent of weakness prevailed Throughout,
the session.
'nhe action of prices in The oats mar

by There grains. The business was not
brisk, however, trade being without in
