Mukden, Oct. 17.-After six
days of the hardest kind Of fight
ing this section of the Russian
army fell back last night on the
Shakhe river, and is now holding
a position on the north side of
that stream. On October 9 the
Russians advanced to the south
east, crossing the Shakhe river,
thence to Hamatung. twenty miles
southeast of Mukden and ten
miles north Of Yenti. On the hills
around Hamatung, the japanese
had planted four batteries. Up
on the advance Of the Russians,
these batteries retired to the
southwark across a narrow valley
which runs east and west and
Joined the main japanese force on
the hills beyond. In the fighting
around Hamatung a few japanese
prisoners were taken. The Rus
slams followed the japanese across
the valley, taking positions in the
foot hills from which the artillery
shelled the japanese while the in
fantry advanced through the de-
files. The artillery duel was con-
tinued, the Russians advancing
slowly. During the night of Octo-
Der 10 the japanese changed their
positions and at daylight enfiladed
the trenches, pouring a terrific
shrapnel fire on the infantry,
composed of only one regiment,
only remnant Of which was left.

STOCK MARKET
is RATHER DULL
Just a Few Points of Aggressive
Strength
SEVERAL STOCKS ADVANCED
Buying of AmaIeamated Copper Was
Particularly Strong and Was Based
on Reports of Strength of
Copper Trade.
SEVERAL STOCKS ADVANCED

New York. April S.--Todays stock mar
ket was similar in character to that Of
yesterday with few spots of aggressive
strength and with pressure to sell at
other points for realization of profits.
Dealings did not reach the recent aver
age volume, and the strong stocks were
rather less effective in sustaining the
market against the realizing at other
points. Today's conspicuous advances
were in Atchison Amalgamated copper
and Broolkn transit and on smaller volume
of business Consolidated gas The move
ment In. the latter was directly due to
legislation at Albany. The movement in
Atehison has been foreshadowed for sew
eral days during which points have been
published on Atchisons strong position
of independence in the trans-continental
field, and the necessity of consulting II In
order to maintain any harmoy of action In
that field The recent great advance In
Union Pacific pointed to movement IN
Atchison. The buying Of Amalgamated
copper was ostensibly based on the many
reports of the strong position of the cop
per trade. The plain evidence of selling
of Union Pacific and United States steel
deprived the market of what has been
its most effective support and other
stocks which have been SUCCESSFULLY adj
yanced were sold In the same way. The
closing up of a speculative campaign
was thus suggested in rather unpieas
ant way to the weaker followers or the
late advance.
Further commitments are made to the
long side. The recent favorable influence
of the weather map was lacking today
the wintry winter In the northwest max
ing its impression In the stock market as
well as in wheat. The preliminary esti-
mates of the weeks currency movement
make it probable that the loss by gold
exports and sub-treasury operations has
been mostly offset by the receipts on
balance from the interior by the regular
express movement. This is without tax
ing account of the paying out today by
the SUBJ treasury of nearly four million
dollars on account of the Japanese gold
received at San Francisco yesterday. The
revived activity In the stock market and
the weeks sales of new railroad bond
issues indicate some expansion in the
loan account of the banks. The undis-
turbed ease in the money market is
clear proof of abundant resources up to
the present and the bank statement at
tracts no special interest. After touch
ing the lowest point Of the day In the
final hour, the stock market rallied and
closed steady but very dull Heavy re-
alizing in United States Steel second IS
made the bond market irregular. Total
sales. par value 50, 950,000. United States
rs advanced u and the old As u per cent

Cochran G Co.'s Stock Letter.


New York. April s.TThe market was
very irregular today and price movements
were somewhat erratic. There was a
strong undertone, but the market SEEM
ed to be little bit harder to bull than
formerly. 1t is certainly in more vulner-
able position as regards bear attacks.
There has been considerable realizing in
some parts of the list, and although this
has been well taken, 1t Is questionable
how much more could be absorbed with
out breaking the level.
A moderate reaction Is really about due,
and should come between now and early
next week. 1t seems to be a market. how
ever, in which the various groups are adj
vanced, and then sold under the cover
of strength in some issues that have not
enjoyed a rise. This is, of course. all the
time putting the market upon a firmer
basis especially If the realizing is well
taken which appears to be the case.
1t certainly looks as II stocks should
be bought on reaction. Total sales 52s,so0.

SELLING RENEWED
IN COTTON MARKET
Cables Were Considerably Bet

BEAR RAID IN AFTERNOON
May and July Were Both Sent Dowr
Several Points BY the Onslaught.
The Close Was Steady,
With Good Advance.

New York. April S.-The cotton market
opened steady at an advance of to s
points following considerably better cables
than expected, but there was little demand
and very soon after the opening re-
newal of selling by American interests
who have recently been prominent on the
bear side of the market eased prices off
to little under the closing figures of
last night, when the continued light move
and reports of better spot demand from
New Orleans together with favorable
weather reports from the southwest,
caused a rally that was Increased some
what around midday by buying on the
strong showing of the weekly figures.
In the middle of the afternoon anoth-
err bear raid took place driving May
down to about 1467 and July to 1893 or
about the closing prices of the previous
night. This was followed by a sharp re-
covery on covering as a result of rather
more active southern spot markets, most
of which reported small sales, the bet
ter spot business in the local market
and reports of heavy exports from New
Orleans. The close was steady at prac-
tically the best prices of the day, at an
advance of % points on the spot month
and of to 13 points on other positions.
Sales were only 250,6o bales one of the
