izing was by recent speculative buyers
evidently as was shown by the con-
spicuous weakness of those stocks
which have been under recent manipu-
lation for the advance. The weakness
became quite general at the last and
the majority OF active stocks fell
point or more below Saturday. The
fall in northwest was So; Delaware &

soul. Pacific, Northern Pacific prefer

ing second preferred >. The taxing
OF bear profits by the room traders
caused only feeble rallies and the clos
ing was weak at about the lowest.
Undoubtedly the hardening tendency of
the money market and the prospect of
gold shipments to Paris this week
prompted the speculative liquidation.
But II was true also that a growing
spirit or doubt arose as to the recent
current rumors which have been the
basis for advancing prices. The clouds
o. uncertainty which have gathered
again over the Northern Pacific state
ment seemed to gather gloom In the
speculative mind, after Mr.. Morgan
hau arrived at ais Office and no instan-
taneous statement of a settlement was
given out. The renewed weakness OF
Amalgamated Copper was also an I'M
settling influence. The selling OF this
stock and of Sugar was very heavy for
Boston account. Call loans rose to-
day TO 4 per cent. and the assurance
which was professed on Saturday over
TIE Increase in the cash reserve of the
banks was dissipated and yielded to
anxiety on account of the large ex-
pansion. Foreign exchange continued
firm to-day but no gold was engaged
for export to Germany by to-morrow's
steamers. in fact the discount rate at
Berlin eased OFF a fraction to-day and
sterling exchange hardened. indicating
a relaxation of the pressure at that
point There was no rally however, in
sterling exchange at Paris and 1t is
generally expected tat gold from New
YORK to that point on Thursday In con-
siderable volume. Call money stiffen-
ed sharply in London and opened mar
ket discount rates rose well above the
bank rate, indicating an early advance
by the bank. In the domestiv money
market a renewed activity of money
at Western points was reported while
shipments TO New Orleans from here
continue. The optimists urge that any
considerable rise III money rates here
would divert funds TO this centre. But
the analogy of the fall of 1899 and the
outbreak OF the joer war is fresh in
the mind when the caIi loan rate on
the stock exchange advanced to 1856
per cent. without preventing the cur
rent export movement of gold The
daily surplus of the government rev.
enue is also rapidly augmenting In the

CHICAGO, October 2s Corn showed
some yielding early with Northwest

lower. There was a small increase on
passage. $4,000 bushels. There was an
increase in the visible, $4,000 bush
els, and was some over the expecta-
ton. There was no great trade at any
time and no special effort at support,
but the market never lost more than
Ae and recovered most of that. Corn
was helped by the oats. The selling
only scattered, buying by Phillips and
by brokers, who usually act for Pat
ten. Receipts 1856 cars, with Ill for

Oats have been the strongest thing
on the grain list, turning strong after
slight dip early and getting to bet
ter than the close Saturday. Mr. Rey-
nolds led the buying. There was some
heavy selling early. Cash oats were
sLrong and cleaned up early. Visible

decreased 129 900 bushels. Receipts
1872 cars, with 1870 for tomorrow.

NEW YORK. October 2S.-The mar
ket to-day from the start did not
display the strength and activity dis
played last week The opinion ex-
pressed by bankers and newspapers
was to the effect that we would ship
gold to Europe this week, and Wall
street does not take favorably to gold
shipments at this season, even If We
can spare it.
There were rumors on the street that
the Northern Pacific deal is not as near
complete as the sanguine people think.
The market was weak throughout the
day and only rallied temporarily when
the announcement was made that the
decision In the Chicago court was very
favorable to Peoples Gas.
When it was officially reported that
one million gold was engaged for ship
ment the weakness became more pro-
nounced.
A. c. P. was the weak feature and
could not even rally when the rest OF
the market did. E

The LIQUIDATION extended this afternoon
to the railroad list and sharp declines
in prices resulted. The possibility OF
god exports this week and the lack Oh
any definite news concerning, the
Northern Pacific matter, together with
vague rumors of a hitch in the nego-
tiations doubtless further deferred the
public from entering the market. But
of positive news to influence STOCKS
there was little to-day. The general
situation is no worse than 1t has been
for some time now. but neither Is it any
better. However, the optimism in many
quarters is less pronounced. and we
believe that those who have been look
ing for sustained upward movement
will be disappointed. Prices In our
estimation are high enough, in view OF
prevailing conditions.
NEW YORK, October %, 3:19 p. M
After an irregular opening the tone on
the market stiffened somewhat under
the leadership of st. Paul. but the
strength was not held. and in the last
hour the market was distinctly weak
and prices below Saturdays closing,
practically without an exception. The
trading was heaviest In st. Paul, where
the pressure was also the greatest,
People's Gas rallied on the news OF
favorable decision, but 1t was after
wards freely sold. Amalgamated Cop
per was one OF the weakest stocks and
did much to weaken the general list.
There were no new developments so far
as can be learned in the Northern
Pacific situation. The chief factor N
the situation was the expectation that
considerable gold would go out on
Thursday by steamer to France. The
foreign exchange market was dull in
the morning but strong, easing off bit
in the afternoon. London did practi-
ely nothing. The decline in the general
market and also in the Steel stocks are
such that an advance Is unlikely at the
present time. Demand $4.S6& a4.S.
