LIQUIDATION IN
THE STOCK MARKET
Highly Speculative Industries
Showed Widest Changes.
RAILROAD STOCKS RALLIED
Consideration of Money Outlook Dom1-
mated Sentiment-Bonds Moved

DidNot Respond Later
RAILROAD STOCKS RALLIED

New York, November 1O.-The early part
of the day in the stock market was given
over to a continuance of the throwing over
of stock holdings which was in evidence
yesterday. The liquidation was on a large
scale and embraced all departments OF the
list. The more highly speculative indus
tries showed the widest changes, but the
selling of the standard railroad Ltocks was
fully equal in amount.
Consideration of the money outlook con-
tinued to dominate sentiment ON the stock
exchange. The banks continued to call
loans for large amounts, Jhe rate for call
money opening a 10 and running up to 10
per cent Large amounts of stocks held
with borrowed money were ;lhrown upon
the market. After each successive period
of liquidation the market fell into con-
ditiOn of semi-Sta gnation. During the after
noon the rate for call money dropped off as
low as per cent, and the demand for
stocks developed, which caused the re-
cuperation in prices ITO the closing level.
The usual preliminary estimates OF the
weeks cash movements showed a rather
smaller shipment to the interior than had
been estimated, Though the loss to the sub
treasury of 5000 900 was up to anticipation.
The weeks loss in cash ds figured at over
$4,000, 600 from all causes. The easing IN the
ameliorate the dread that tomorrow's bank
statement would Show an increase in the
dehcit line loan contraction during the
week has been large There was a rumor
on the floor of the exchange That the banks
resources had been Increased by means of
cash deposits by institutions in New York
city to relieve the situation. This rumor
could not be traced to any authentic source,
out affected sentiment on the stock ex
cpange and inclined speculative opinion to
look for another surprise in tomorrows
bdnk statement.
The stiff money rate resulted in a fur
ther drop in sterling exchange rates, which
was assisted also by buying of stocks here

move from now on according to the pre-
ponderanee of buyers or sellers independent
of weather or crop developments. Early In
the day prices were off / to points, with
receipts at some towns running quite large.
This scared weak holders and encouraged
the bear element. The increased movement
served to encourage aggressiyeness on the
part of Liverpool bears and in that mar
ket there was a toppling of values which
brought out a good deal of local stuff A
loss of 10 points was the record here for
the first hour 1t was evident that the bull
movement was receiving some hard knocks
from quarters heretofore eager supporters,
while the bear crowd was hopeful of re-
eeipts catching up so brislSly as to lead to
revision estimates. Spot sales at Liverpool
We're 1900. The market toward noon re-
covered most of the loss occasioned by the
increased movement but again turned weak
on the appearance of the government report
indicating a crop not in excess of 9,5OO,OOO

New York, November 10.-Stocks of all

last year. American stocks there are
100000 vs. 600 last year. Sales at Liver
pool the past week were but 1900, so that
there is ample room for decided improve
ment. Spot prices in that market are
about lad above last year. This makes
foreign spinners rather indifferent but the
situation is believed to be so strong that
foreign consumers will soon awaken to a
realization of the true situation and buy

SPECULATION IN
The COTTON MARKET
Trading Was Erratic and Prices
Fluctuated Greatly.
SELLING ORDERS NUMEROUS
Excitement Frequently Reached Fever
Heat-Finally Irregular at Net
Loss of Sixteen to TWEEN
to-one Points
SELLING ORDERS NUMEROUS

New York, November 10-The excitement
of the past few days on the cotton exchange
was outdone in every way today. 1t has
been years since speculation in the staple
equalled that of today, while many months
have passed since fluctuations have been so
violent and the course of the market gem
orally as cratic. Although the cables at
hand when our market opened were indi-
catiye of underlying weakness in the Eng
lish market and Notwithstanding state
ments that the crop movement for some
time to come will be on a much larger
scale than heretofore friends of the mar
ket remained faithful at the start and prices
went off but l to points on the first
call.
Selling orders soon began to come in
from all directions, notably Wall street, and
after momentary endeavorl feeble at
first, to check the downward tendency of
prices, the bull crowd Joined in the selling
movement. Prices melted away with sur
prising rapidity, the close of the first half
hour recording loss of II points. An er-
fort to secure profits at this time halted
the decline Investors Immediately reeov-
cred courage and scrambled to relnVest
with the result that rally of IA points &C.
CURED in much less time than had been
taken by the early slump. Some recupera-
ton followed a small slump, but the gen.
eral undertone for the rest of the session
was weak with the market particularly
nervous.
At times excitement was at fever heat,
with great waves of buying and selling ana
prices were thrown out in a seemingly pro-
miscuous manner. Reports that southern
spot markets were holding firm with prices
10 n hO higher and a
bullish summary of weekly statistics failed
to figure in calculations to any considerable
extent. The market was finally irregular at
a net loss of 16 to % points or at the bot
| tom for the day.

Talbot a. Paimer's stock Letter
(By Private Wire from the New York Sum-
New York, November 1O.-Aggressivc
bearish operations were again noted
throughout the market, but on the other
hand the trading disclosed great deal of
buying for the short account, and their
purchases, indeed, constituted about the
most effective support that the market en-
loved Virtually no attention was paid to
the DAYS statement of traffic returns, al
though they included the noteworthy show
ings of the Northern Pacific and st. Paul
The day, while bare of news, was not want
ing in rumors of one kind another Most
of them bore upon the possible action of
the secretary of the treasury in relation to
the money situation here, but they We're
apparently without foundation, and persons
speaking not without authority on asSur-
ances from Washington were unanimous in
declaring that the secretary of the treasury
did not contemplate interfering In the To-
cal situation. As noted, the price move
ments were fairly uniform. The downward
tendency was not uninterrupted by occa-
sional rallies, though the recoveries, it
must be said were somewhat feeble. The
most noted declines were in Peoples Gas,
Sugar Leather common and Manhattan.
The foreign exchange market was decidedly
weaker on the offerings of bills by foreign
banking houses, who indeed, were the
largest lenders of money on call in the
stock exchange during the day. The pre-
vailing scare regarding the monetary stu
alton caused most borrowers TO obtain their
needed accommodations early in the day,
and on this account the rate for call loans
dropped sharply in the afternoon.
