The owner of n valuable dog in this
city did not hesitate to kill the animal

WALL STREET. REVlEN
SALES TO TAKE PROFITS HAVE Ef-
 4N FECT ON PRICES.
Evidence Is Shown, However, of the Mar ket's Underlying Strength and Great
 Absorptive Power Move ment Is Fever sh.

NEW YORK. Sept. 12.-A decisive i'm precision was made on the price of stocks today for the first time in many days py the increasing burden of sales to take profits. prompted by the misgivings over the crop and money outlooks. Yet the dominant impression created by the acton dence of underlying strength and its great absorptive power. The number of shares which had changed hands had run up to three-Quarters of million in the two hours to noon and in that time the market had made sturdy rallies against the inroads on the prices and had put forth sustaining way which has become familiar during the long advance. As the day wore Jn these sustaining points became fewer and also less effective on the sentiment held towards the market at large. The haste to cover shorts at small concessions and by volume of buying orders slightly below the exist ing prices kept the early trading today feverish and uncertain, and showed the doubts of the bears that the time for re- action had come. The consideration Of tho Government crop report, coupled with the weather news from the grain belt decided the course of prices downwards. Estimates of the wheat crop based on the Government percentage conditions leave little margin for surplus to export, that the high price will not represent benefit in the increase of the export value. The threatened short age of wheat has also failed to stimulate any foreign demand for our corn. up to this time. The value of exports of breadstuffs for August falls to s5.336.421. compared with S13,025,7l3 last year. Reports or frosts last night also gave the grain mar kets a fright and though reassuring ad- vices were received from the corn belt. fears felt for sudden damage to that crop and the uncertainty over It tends to keep business dull in the West.
 In the weekly canvass of the traffic situ- ation by railroad officials is easily dis cernable a note of dissatisfaction with the rate of increase of the movement of mer- chandise Westward, which is attributed to corn uncertainties. The grain movement, however. continues large. The rate of deple- tion of tho New York banking surplus has served to admonish speculative borrowers of the other requirements to be met. With a two weeks loan expansion of $31,429,000 and Q cash withdrawal of $15,155.500. an inrcad on the surplus for that time of s1S.937. .1S0 has resulted and loan rates are hardening in consequence. Great confidence Is ex- pressed that ,h" fall requirements will be met without causing stringency at New York.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept 12.-Liverpooi was not conspicuous this morning. From being slightly better than due at the hour of our opening. prices at the close adjust ed themselves to the normal parties and only very narrow fluctuations were required to attain this basis. The loss on options for the day amounted to 12 points on Sep- tember, but more deferred positions lost only one point, spots declining two points on salns of 5000 bales. Cloths were in more demand and yarns quiet and firm in Man chester.
 Trading evinced more activity at our opening. Some short covering and moderate amount of fresh buying for a reaction carried prices 10 higher than Saturdays close, after which a rather sluggish market ensued and values sunk below the early lev els. the decline being attr.buted to sales of contracts as hedges Superb weather for harvesting was indicated by the chart In all portions of the belt except sections of Texas Receipts are now fairly answering expectations. while the spot situation shows little If any improvement Foreign textile conditions are experiencing a material inn provement, especially noticeable in the ex- port demand but a similar change in trade Is not perceptible among our own manufac- turers, who are pursuing a hand to- mouth policy in their purchases of raw material. Until relief in the form of an active spot demand becomes apparent the weight of the increasing movement may be expected to give a sagging tendency to the market. With reactions induced at periods by the weather news or the vagaries of speculative minds opportunities for scalping should bo quite frequent.
