OFFERING DOWN."
Professional Traders Seeking a Level
At which the Public VIII Come
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 3.-The oppor-
tunity was taken to-day for an over
hauling and a readjustment generally
of current quotations for industrial
stocks An extensive assortment came
under the purview of the professional
traders on the exchange who went sys-
matically through the whole list with
q testing process of what Is called
Offering down II no purchaser was
forthcoming for a stock at the last
quoted price it was offered at success
sively lower prices until the making OF
a purchase fixed the new price level.
The results of this process demonstrate
a barrenness of the public appetite Tor
these securities which is revelation
to many persons who have been I'M
pressed with the quoted prices ruling
in the market. These prices in many
cases were made during the period or
active speculation, when purchasers
could be attracted by the mere device OF
a sudden advance in market quota
tions. Actual transactions in num-
Der of the securities have been few and
far between for many months past.
The days operations revealed the fact
kept in the stocks while there was any
hope Of outside purchases had been en-
tirely withdrawn, and the quotations
crumbled away into fragments under
the offerings down process above de-
scribed.
The action OF the United States steel
Corporation on Tuesday in publishing
a statement OF monthly net earnings
induced a feeling that other Industrial
correspondence must follow or suffer
loss Of confidence. Sentiment was at
fected as recent criticism of the plans
of organizations and capitalization OF
a number of minor Industrial compan-
les. Dread OF legislative attack and
the general apprehension OF excessive
ver-capitalization as rule were ele-
ments in the results.
Railroad bonds were irregular, total
sales par value, 100000.
U. S. bonds we're all unchanged on
the last call.

CHICAGO, October Bulls made a
weak effort to control a bearish mar

Nc higher; December wheat 1s@Ac
depressed and December oats Mc
/ higher Provisions closed &c to zoe up.
Conditions favored an advance in
corn at the start. Cables were I'M
changed and there was a scarcity of
offerings which caused December to
open sc to Ac higher at Sex 056sc.
The scantiness of offerings pointed to a
considerable short interest outstanding
and December soon advanced to 57asc.
The bear crowd, while not selling, was
inclined TO antagonize the advance and
lac in the session when report that
the Iowa crop report would give con-
dition of 10 against September 30,
prices began to sag and December
closed easy Nc higher at 56Bc. Re
ceipts were 1870 cars.
Wheat followed the lead of corn and
a dull and weak market. December
opened a shade to b@Ac higher at
ooc to 69Ac on better cables and on
the buoyant feeling in corn. Most OF
the traders deserted the wheat pit for
corn and the little business done was

There was almost no interest in pro-
