New ertheless, the market later began to ease off, with trading on a comparatively light scale, as contracted with the last couple days business. Realizing and bear sell ing proved a stumbling block to bull traders, and before half of the session was over, values were about back to last nights close. Late cables failed to indi- cate any new features abroad, and the local market was in an unsettled condi- tion in the afternoon. with bears in con trol.

 Financial.
 New York, October A--The Comnier- ai-Advertiser's London financial cable gram says:
 The stock market today was dull and dominated by the monetary situation. Gold to the amount of az2l,000 has Eohe to France and a50O0 to South America. Banks are chary of discounts. the rate being 2A, with the market short of funds. The Bank of England has lent cohsid- erabie sum at per cent. The bank re- turn was better than expected. The inter- national money movements counteracted the gold exports of Rl,25, 900, and made the reduction. of the reserve hardly half million pounds.
 American stocks were abated during the first hour when business died away, until New York galvanized the market, particularly Union Pacific and Baltimore and Ohio But prices finally fopped. Bai- tamore and Ohio alone holding the ed- vance. Commission business by fits and starts was the best way to describe the feeling here. The Northern Pacific deal is awaited to Initiate a fresh advance.
