The opening in wheat was at a slight sd-
vance over yesterdays closing price, Deoem-
Der starting at ssTsc, The Improvement was
apparently due to Bradstrcot's figures on the
weeks exports. which were put at bs0s zoe
bushels. compared with 5.o21,0 900 bushels the
previous week. This had caused strong

IN STOCKS AND BONDS.
THE HEAR ELEMENT rs STILL &C.
TIVE AND AGGRESSIVE.
Week Tobacco Was Hammered
Down ns Much as ~ Points.

New York, October 1.-The stock market
during today's short session gave striking evi-
dencc tina, the power OF the bear faction lad
not diminished in tfiecting lower prices. rho
break In Tobacco was tbs moro sensational In
view OF the half holiday. No new develop
ments concerning the speculation IN this stock
were announced. and the hears pursued tho
satnc dtligent tactics that have been rcspoi-
sihle for the tremendous drop this week.
New spots OF weakness have appeared every
day. and todny's development was Console
dated Gas The competition OF the electric
lighting companies and rival gas plant fur
nishcd the basis for a break Of 6,s points.
The railway list had an interval of strength,
but the influence OF the srecialtios was TOO
o.cirowtrng and losses resulted,
The bank statement exceeded the favorable
Ell oetntions and Its publication checked tho
hrVrE.
H. discussion OF the financial developments
OF tn, week, the industrial group must have
mcnts of these stocks disturbed general con-
ndpncc. and this condition found expression
In an enormous liquidation OF all classes OF
securities. Rumors regarding the status OF
Industrial property we're circulated freely, and
tue operations by bear factions were con-
ductCd with marked brillloncy. Influential
speculative interests wern apparently banded
together to create Generalization nmons hold
ets, md reports of had faith between intcrcs;-
cd tliques were assigre1 as causes Tor tho
srasmodic attacks in various Instances. Lieut.
dalton wns interrupted throughout, aud tho
volume OF stop loss orders reached exceeded
any previous outpourins. Tobacco WIS the
dominant feature and the dcluso Of s,ocas
which accompanied the break colorcd the re-
ports that inside interests were unloading,
Tho bears followed q consistent course and
diverted their efforts from one stock to au-
other until tho entire Industrial group wus
hammered. Losses FOR the week ranged zip
10 80 points In Tobacco, with Consolidated
Gas, Manhattan, Cotton oil and Leather next
10 order. Sugar encountered supporting or
dera Al various times. and covering elsewhere
inI hrtcd occasional stcadiness.
Railway earnings. embracing all Of the lead
ing ines, were IN the main encouraging, but
returns from some sections showed heavy de-
crosses, owing to well known conditions.
The bond market moved In sympathy with
stock fluctuations and showed more activity
on the easier money conditions.

Hunter & CO.'S cotton Letter.

II. w. Hunter a. Co. say OF today's cot
ton market: The heavy and rapid mo5c-
mcnt Of cotton to market is too much for
Liverpool. particularly ms that market Is
now the highest and has 10 take the bulk OF
sales against spot purchases on this side
On account of high froghts Liverpool Btill
stands 1864, which Is equal TO % American
points higher than the normal parity be-
tween that market and ours, and this ,llf-
ference has already started to right ltseii
as freight rates are becoming castor. The
decline in Liverpool was met by an opening
dip on this side. which was only slightly
Increased IN spite OF TIE heavy receipts
and estimates. New Orleans estimate was
heavy. and Houstons estimate OF ~ 0c0
TO "a. 800 breaks the record for any previous
Monday. The cotton is certainly being
rushed Ia market. and there seems moth
Ing to do but have patience and wait until
weak holders get rid of their loads. Freight
room out OF Galveston has already been cnA
gagged for coo, 900 bales for October ship
ment, and more is wanted. The ships can
handle the cotton. but It Is doubtful II
tho railroads can. and a blockade Is lnml-
nent Some OF this cotton has been sold
short by Interior merchants and country
buyers. and some OF this freight room has
been engaged in speculation, In fact,
lation as cotton. and the man who Ia long

and all he loses Will go TO the holder who
