Mr.. John G. Freely, of Scranton, Pa,
who has just returned from a semi
business tour of Great Britain, said,
while in Washington: "rhe sale of
American Agricultural implements is in
creasing every day in Europe. The peo-
pie who do the buying over there are as
sensible as any other people on earth.
They don't buy our plows and hay rakes
and steel rails just because they are
American, but because they are really
the best in the world and far cheaper in
the long run than the best articles made
elsewhere"

FRACTIONAL GAINS
These the Rule in the Opening in
Wall Street.
RAILROAD STOCKS BECOME HEAVY
Active Buying Movement Benefits
the Soft Coal Rail-
ways.

New York, Oct. 9.-The opening trading in
stocks were quiet and rather Indifferent; frac-
uonal gains were the rule, with the Wander
bilts In the lead. Brooklyn Transit and
Amalgamated Copper dipped fraction, but
were supported and recovered Brooklyn
Transit advanced to SO and Amalgamated Cop
per improved a point from the lowest and
there We're additional gains in the Wander
bilts, Lake Erie and Western issues and
Cleveland, c., c. & St. Louis rising 1Qlh.
Traders took profits later in Brooklyn Tran
sit and Amalgamated Copper and attacked
Sugar successfully, lowering 1t Ia Railroad
stocks also became heavy, especially the
southwestern group. st. Louis & San Fran
cisco lost 2k and others from l to ia. st.
Paul, Atchison, New York Central and other
VaRderbilts gave way over a point.
An active buying movement arose in Nor
folk & Western, lifting it 19s to 55A. Some
OF the other soft coal roads hardened. but
| other stocks showed but little rallying power.
Prices, however, were above the lowest, with
business almost at standstill pending the
dividend action OF Atchison common. Inter
| national Power gained 21s and New York,
Chicago & St. Louis second preferred dropped
i've points and rallied 21z
Some large blocks of Atchison were taken
on the dividend increase advancing it 10
76asc. Elsewhere there was feeble response
ness and inanition again. Atchison reacted
to below yesterdays close and Norfolk &
Western lost a point
The light offerings when bids were scaled
down caused concerted advance against the
shorts in Sugar, Amalgamated Copper and
Brooklyn Transit, all Of which touched the
highest prices OF the day. Amalgamated sold
is and Brooklyn Transit 17s above yester-
days close. Atchison was then run up TO
about a and there was some demand for the
western and Pacific stocks. Iowa Central
advanced "a and the preferred 81. The
market failed to hold top prices and yielded
somewhat but hardened again almost i'm
mediately.
The market was listless and apathetic dur
iEg the last hour and prices were inclined 10
slip back except for few special cases. Great
Northern preferred, oNrth American and Pa
cine coast rose "a, New Central Coal 37s and
Northwestern preferred 6. National Salt fell
and the preferred IL. The Wabashas and

Chicago, Oct. s-Trade in wheat at the

yesterdays dullness. Under the influence OF
unsympathetic cables, December started weak
ssQ12c to 14QBc depressed, at 697sc to 69Ac-
Offerings were heavy all around on the early
decline. Weakness in corn also had a de-
pressing effect and December sold off to 6912
q698sc. There were traders, however, who
expected another rally like that Of two days
previous, and at this price there were good
695s@6924c and held for a time. Local re-
ceipts were lat cars, none contract; Mime
apolis and Duluth reported 906 cars, total
for the three points Of 1,O5S cars, against
928 last week and 739 a year ago.

mand from the outside, but prices for De-
cember sagger to 56Ac. Small recovering
caused reaction to $3.50.
December followed wheat in it's break and

THE LEADERS.

Wednesday, Oct. 8.
The Minneapolis journal., 1901-10-09

New York to c. E. Lewis: The dominant
factor hanging over the market is the con
tinued unsatisfactory money market No
further relief can be expected from the gov
ernment, and there is little hope Of gold
imports as, two three months ago, a large
amount Of exchange was sold in anticipation
of covering 1t at a profit on the movement
of crops. Now it is found that the failure OF
the corn crop and a much smaller cotton
crop than expected has so changed the situ-
alton that sterling rates are not likely to
break much for some time. Meantime some
large syndicate time loans are maturing,
which will have to be cared for, and banks
are closely scrutnizing their collateral"
New York to Whallon, Case Co.: There
is a marked decrease in loan demand FOR
stocks. In well-informed Amalgamated cir
cles, the report of settlement was discredited.
Regarding the earnings of the American
Sugar Refining company, an excellent au-
thority calls attention to the fact that for
the last sixteen months the difference be-
tween raw and granulated has averaged lc
per pound; hence the estimate OF profit at 81
per barrel.'
Counselman to Petit: From all appear
ances, the copper situation Is still in an un-
settled condition and, therefore, lower prices
may be looked for in the Industrials. This
may cause further reaction in the railroads.
On weak spots, would buy stocks for a turn.
New York to Watson 1t is not singular
that the market does not advance The public
has been driven from the market by the
numerous false statements concerning various
companies which deluded the public and cul-
minated in the May panic. Take Brooklyn
Rapid Transit, for instance, by their state
ments, all the money they earned in five
years is $1,0000O0 We have warned our
and claimed it was selling at ridiculous
prices.

MISCELLANEOUS
New York Cotton.

New York, Oct 9.-Cotton opened firm at
an advance Of 5@6 points, on active covering
and moderate foreign demand. eased on bad
weather reports and light receipts. After
advancing to S05c, it broke sharply COS
points under proit-takiRg and selling. At
1880 for January, there was good buying
prompted by the appearance of a cold wave
in the northwest, reports that cotton was
being damaged in the fields by hard rains and
predictions for a continued light movement.
At 1890 a. m, the market had the appear
ance of being sold short by the room and
public orders sifted in. Prices were sensi-
tive to this demand and quickly rallied sew
eral points. AT midday the market was was
points above last nights final bids. The pit
had every appearance of being short. There
were few supporting orders in evidence.
