(By Telegraph to vlrgilian- Pilot)
New York. Oct. 2.-The professional
movement to advance prices which
was the conspicuous feature of yester-
days stock market, was not in evil
dence to-day. The promoters of the
movement desisted from buying stocks
on large scale and during the latter
part OF the day they refrained alto.
gether from supporting the market
There was no formidable selling pres
sure at any time during the day, and
the decline at the last was on very
slight dealings, but the market proved
SO soft that at the close a number OF
prominent stocks showed net losses of
from to 1%, with the tone decidedly
heavy. Union Pacific itself, which was
the center in yesterdays movement for
the advance, is point lower on the
day on much lessened volume of deal
tngs. The stock nevertheless retained
ITS prominent place in the dealings
The extreme dizziness of the whole mar
ket at the decline seemed to favor the
bull party. so that their change of poll
cy was the more difficult of eXplana-
ton. The factors upon which they re-
lied yesterday to help the advance con-
tinued in force for the most part to-
day. Possibly the unfavorable aspect
of the proposed coal strike settlement
had assumed rather more positive
phase to-day, and Lackawanna and
New Jersey Central scored sharp de-
clines, though the number OF shares
transferred was SO small as to deprive
the changes of all significance. The only
Incident of the day resembling agrees
eive action by the bulls was the mark
ing up of railroads controlled by the
Vanderbilts or affiliated interests. The
rate for call money held at yesterdays
high rate and perhaps disappointed
some expectation that the rate then
was due to passing causes including
payments due amounting to over &c.,
100000 on subscriptions to new Balti-
more and Ohio stock, which was under
written at so. The payment of govern
ment interest at the sub treasury
brought some supplies of money to the
tinued its conspicuous downward
course, and the posted rates were re-
duced another half cent followinp yes
terdays II cent reduction. The equani-
nifty Of the foreign money markets in
face of the threatening approch of ex-
change to the gold import point finds
no adequate explanation. but foreign
bankers adhere to the view that gold
will not come In, in spite of to-day.'s
further decline in discounts both In
London and Berlin.
There were some marked advances In
prices of bonds, but the market was not
active or very broad. Total sales, par
value, $g25,00
United States bonds were unchanged
in bid price.

The Cotton Markets.
NEW YORK CoTToN MARKnr

.
New York, Got. 2.--The cotton mar
ket opened steady ut a decline of g6D12
points, early cables being disappoint-
ing ana early estimates pointing to
large receipts. Later cables were more
favorable and the movement of cotton
hardly justified the early expectations.
Buying became quite general, conspic-
uously for Wall street account, and
prices moved UP Q to points from the
opening. Again the feeling turned
easier and business dragged in antici-
patton of the bureau report. This was
responded to by an advance of 263
points, after which the market became
positively weak Under renewed bear
confidence. Prices broke from 9.S6 for
January to 9.75 for that position. The
Reports from the Southern spot mar
kets showed a less aggressive demand
and rather more disposition to sell, but
no pressure. The run of private crop
gossip was favorable. There was con-
siderable selling in the afternoon on
the idea that the market had been over
bought. The market closed steady at
12@22 points net decline.

the fact that the severe weather in the North

THE TRIAL OF THE DENT CASE
SAM IsAAcs WAS on THE STAND
NEARLY ALL DAY.
chc state officials Arc TO Testify
Monday. II Is Now I'M
derstood.

Dallas, Texas, March S.--Counsel for
the State announced that they rested just
before court adjourned this evening IN
the case of W. J. Dent Oh trial for
forgery. Tho right was reserved to In
troduce rebuttal evidence. None OF the
State officers brought here from Austin
as witnesses for the prosecution were
placed on the stand. Governor soyers and
party went back to Austin tonight. They
are to return Monday morning.
Sam Isaacs was on the witness stand
nearly all day. He is a brother of the
convict let out of prison on the bogus
pardon. He detailed meeting Dent sey-
eral times last fall UP in the Panhandle
and at other places. He said he never
owed Dent any money and had not made
any contract with him, although be
would have paid any one who could have
procured a legal pardon for his brother;
that defendant showed aim a pardon on
two different occasions and spoke OF re-
leasing George lsaacs, but that lie paid
no attention to Dents statement because
he was drunk at the time Mr. 1saacs
also testified that after the release OF
his brother he rode with George lsaacs
and Dent about 200 miles. from Empofia
TO Kansas City, but that Dent never asked
him for money and that the pardon was
not discussed; that he left George and
Dent in Kansas City. since which time
he has not seen or heard from his brother
George Isaacs. That the trst time Dent
mentioned the pardon was September Ii.
1899.
Judge George r.. Pendexter OF austin
Is In attendance at the trial and bears
with him the alleged forged pardon
which released George lsaacs. The pardon
will be introduced in the case and start
ling developments are looked for 1t Is
the present intention of the defence 10
put Dent on the stand and have him tell
his side of the pardon story. He has
declared that the instrument was not q
forgery but that the pardon was legal.
