 Trading in contracts during the day was confined largerlv to the December and Janu- ary positions. though March came in for a moderate share of attention.

WALL STREET REVIEW SPECULATION WAS LIsTLEss
 AND APATHETIC.
Sentiment of Small Traders, Whose Operations Made up the Market, Undewent Many Variations.
 Bonds are Unchanged.

NEW YORK, Oct e.-The same doubt and hesitation regarding the future course or prices vas reflected in toosys as ssocf S,s.lsss and an athetic and the sentiment of the smalr traders whose operations made up the market under show a net change of much as q point. even where the days range was considerable ihe disposition was to close up contracts, both on the long and the short side until the future course of prices outlines itself more dennitely This tendency was demonstrated m the re- sponse of Brooklyn Transit and of Atchison to the specific developments affecting them. The annual report of Brooklyn Transit. which last night was interpreted unfavorably in all the current comment. especially in the dis closure that the treasury bonds had been sodd vanced and resisted an attempt on the part O. professional traders to depress the prices. The stock advanced at one time to 2t. show ing the most conspicuous strength in the mar ket The increase in the Atchison dividend quarters, had been denied with equal conf dence in others. In fact. the decision seems to have been discussed and finally decided in the meeting itself of the directors. The at tempt to advance the stock on the announce ment proved abortive. the extreme rise over net gain only K. The doubt over the predicted advance was due to the fact of the shortage in the corn crop Some or & the other = to emphasize this view. The estimate of the years wheat crop by an agricultural periodi- cal, placing it at a record figure and at 100 . GOO GOO bushels for Kansas alone, was an op- portiine offset to this contention. The election of an additional Standard oil representative to the Union Pacific Board of Directors was a verifcation of another bull prediction. But the bull party hesitated to take up the spec ulatior for an advance, owing to the danger that. money hurries may still intervene be- fore the interior movement of currency termi- mates. Sterling exchange was notably strong today on an active demand. sterling fairly touching 1. e6. This is more than cent in the pound sterling above the gold import point Guar and Amalgamated Copper. which continued ecetive. drifted rather uncertainty, but with a rather firm undertone.

Are Husband and WifeP

san FranclSCO Bulletin.
 The retail grocers of this city propose to ascertain by legal enactment if hus- band and wife are one in respect to the mourning of debts. and two in respect to payment of such debts. The imme- diate caues of a desire for enlightenment on this point is the fact that some hus- bands have formed habit of getting credit on the representation that property belonging to the matrimonial firm is res ponsiole for debts, while in fact the hus- band has transferred the firms property to his wife. who in such case cannot be held responsible for the firms debts. The purpose of the law which allows a sol vent husband to deed property to his wife and which allows the wife to hold such property against debts afterward incur red by the husband is a good one. Men who are at once devoted husbands and good citizens have in this way provided for their families at the expense of subse- quent creditors The law works a palpa- ble injustice only when the fact of trans fer is concealed. It is against such con cealment that the grocers now protest II the property owned jointly by husband and wife is made the basis of credit, it should be subject by due proces of law to debts incurred for the necessities of life To permit husband to incur debts on the assumption that he owns property which he has privately deeded to his wife has the effect of authorizing a legal squabhle. marriage settlement wives may he made sole owners of bequests and inheritances, but such property can not be made the basis of a husband,s credit. With his wifes consent, the hus- band may live on the income of such property. but the wife may do as she pleases about paying her husbands debts Laws of this character are necessary for the protection of women who. as a rule do not know much about their husbands business and are consequently unable to protect themselves from the conse- quences of bad management or extraya- gance.

 NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 9.-Liverpool was aroused by bad weather reports from the belt and recorded moderate advance in spots and deliveries with large sales again the rule. Ca bes stated that Manchester was displaying strength and that further unessiness was ap- parent amongst spinners on account of the small stoc kof cotton in Liverpool; light ship ments destined. for that market; very mod crate movement on this side and fears early frost, and 1t is no wonder that anxiety should result from such a combination of circum- stances.
 kt the opening here longs evinced in clination to realize profits on the adv"nce, and prices gradually dropped back m the ab- senee of fresh speculative support. A fair demand appeared at the extr"ma decline, however, and steadness nainA..n'i.
 Closing quotations are about six points iow- than yesterday.
 With the large sales of spots in the En,'ish market. a more liberal inquiry from abroad for cotton has appeared in the South and should this develop into active de:nf nd, the effect on prices will be very beneficial. Aside from this. the frost feature IS in the tore ground and as the size of the yield is con ceded to depend largely on the Gate of killing temperature and early official predictions of heavy frost in the belt. would to he signal for a general buying movement.

MARKET FOR FUTURES THOROUGHLY INDIFFERENT. At the Close Prices Were Barely Steady, Net to 8 Points Lower. Business Dragged Through
 out the Afternoon.

NEW YORK. Oct 9.-The market for cot ton futures opened firm at an advance Of o9 Q points active covering and scattering sup port from abroad the South Wall Street and room bulls The opening figures we. e nearly top for the day as. after advancink to $ points further continued general buying. the market simmered down and became list less. prices sinking gradually despite the bull sh influence on every hand. The public seemed thoroughly indifferent to the action of the market either way. Initial advices from Liver pool told of a firm market abroad with spot demand stil! very large at full prIces. Private cables reported Manchester strong on broad ening demand for goods and scarcity of spot supplies. As for port receipts the movement was barely half of that for the same day year ago. sharp drop in temperature in the North and West. between 6 and 22 de gres. gave a rise to fears of cold snap reach ing down into the cotton belt in the near tu ture. By midday the early advance had been supplanted by net decline of 2Q3 points
 Business dragged all the afternoon and i.e the last half hour the room sold out its l1ng cotton and went short freely, closing the mar ket barely steady with plices net 3a8 polnts lower. Clearances for export were again slarge but England did not take its share, even though Liverpool stocks the lowest of recent years. excepting last year when prices were 2M cents above the present basis.
