NEW YORK, Aug. 1s.-The reaction in
prices of stocks came in the trading today.
The professional traders have been eagerly
antic pating this action Of the market and
have several times sought to bring it about
by attacking stocks with short sales. They
were having success yesterday when the an
nouncement of the increased Burlington div
idend put them to rout. The subsequent
upward tendency of the market tended to
make 1t more invulnerable to bear attacks,
and they opened their guns this morning with
onslaught on Tobacco, Peoples Gas and
Brooklyn Rapid Transit. Although this as
sault came with very realizing offerings in
the grangers and in the Pacific and some
other favorites the outside demand for stocks
was SO enormous as to take the market away
from the professionals and lift prices upward
in furiously active and very widely distr.b-
uted trading BUT there came time later
in the day when the outside demand was for
the time satisfied and when the recent pur-
chasers of stocks were still anxious to take
the handsome Profits gaccrued upon them
The bears kept nibbling at the list and made
an aggressive attack in the last hour which

markets here were lifeless today, the ex

New York's lead, there being no initiative

foreign brokers here directly concerned with

principally for foreign houses, have contracted

SEED MARKETS.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1S.-The faxseed market
was weak today, and that is all that can be
said about it. The trade is "galleyed" by
irresponsible crop reports which in turn are
used by intedested parties for their own bene-
nj. There Is no valid reason why haxs ed
should be sold at a lower price than now
maintained. Receipts here were 40 cars, Q
cars at Duluth and cars at Minneapolis.
The official close, as reported by the Weare
Commission company, is as follows: Cash
fax at s9Ac per bu, Northwest seed at 90c,
Size: Cash timothy seed closed at ST. per
100 lbs. Minneapolis fax seed quoted at S6zac
per Blu, and September at S51sc.
CHICAGO COUNTRY HIDES.

the market as long hides remain scarce
and tanners continue to buy at country points
at prices nearly equal to those paid in this
market Just now hides are the cream of
the year In condition, and faw tanners con-
tlnue to sustain the prices asked by dealers
During the past two weeks this market h g
been in complicated condition. No soon

The receipts of hides by local firms are
quite small this week, and this caused some
OF the bidders to feel rather b.ue.
Extreme light hides, rs to 40 ibs, are lie d
at 1OA @10Ac, and 9A@1Cc for No. and No. 2
