TESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKEE
Goes Through Course of Moderate
 Liquidation.

@~~fN~@N@s~NAOAA'
 New York, Oct 9.-The market went through course of moderate liquida~ tion to-day, induced by the growing ascent to an opinion that money will hold firm for a considerable period of time. The liquidation was not urgent at any time and was not continuous. The tone of the market was resilient in the intervals of the selling and there were good recoveries, but there was a marked decline in activity when prices were moving upwards, and the princi- pal trading of the day was done on descending scale of prices. The condi- tions disclosed by the Saturday bank statement were the immediate motives for the selling, the low level of the sur plus serving as an admonition to con- tract outstanding obligations Loans were called on moderate scale and there was some voluntary paying off of borrowings made at last weeks high money rates. Some voluntary liquida- tion of stocks accompanied this pro- cess, apparently induced by the con- viction that speculative activity in the immediate future is likely to decline, leaving less favorable opportunities for conducting liquidation.
 It is this sentiment which grows al., most inevitably in a dull market that makes doubtful the ability of protec- tive measures in the market to hold prices. Up to this time, however, tho protection of the market has been fa- cilitated by the widespread conviction that an advance in prices ultimately is to come. The policy of opposing reac-

tion through the period of monetary strain has come into question, howev- CT. Criticism of the attempts to main tain an artificial ease in the money market are having all influence. Fi- nancial authorities in London are re- ported as expressing fears of a raid on the London money market on behalf of the maintenance of the speculative sit uatiGn in New York, which would threaten unfavorable consequences to the London situation. The reference is to the late engagements of gold in Lon don and to the suspicion that hey were designed to foster speculation rather than an outcome of the condition of the exchanges. Reports were again cur- rent to-day of further engagement of gold in London, but they were not con firmed.
 There was no appreciable change in the exchange rates in this market. The call money market showed some relaxation from the tension of the lat ter part of last week, partly due no doubt to the liquidation of stocks. Out of town institutions also continued to offer funds here quite freely. The time money market was called firm with an advancing tendency. Prices recovered good part of their losses when the money rate ran off late in the day and the market then became torpid.

 Ensues-LondOn Money Market Weak
 Diminishing Prospects as to Gold
 COming-High Money May PreciRi-
 tate More LiquidatiOn-The Wabash
 Election To-day.
 The presence of liquidation by spec ulative holders was apparent in the market yesterday, and prices fell off from one to two points. The price of money grew easier in the afternoon and a small rally then ensued.
 The activity was at the decline. When stocks began to rally they be- came dull. The reverse has been the case recently. The Jewish holiday was 4he main factor here and abroad in re- stricting business.
 Prices were lower in London. This was because the London money market was weak and not disposed to help the money market here with gold.
 There was disappointment at the di- minishing prospects of getting gold from Europe.
 The short interest has been increas- ing the past few days, and eventually will be factor in sustaining prices. One of the weak technical features re- gently has been the lack of demand from shorts.
 To-day's government estimate on the corn crop and in the figures of Sep- tenber's agricultural export trade will be awaited with interest.
 The pools in the individuals had to take more long stock yesterday than they relisiled.
 The $S,0O0,OOO shrinkage in surplus bank reserves Saturday brought the break in prices yesterday as much as anything.
 A member of one of the largest Stock Exchange houses said: "This fear to be inevitable, viz, that some large holders of securities will recognize that high money rates have come to stay, and will want to liquidate in order to lend the money, and further that spec ulative holders will be forced by the tension of high money te liquidate."
 The easing off of callmoney to below 4 per cent. early in the afternoon helped sentiment somewhat, and this brought about a partial rally.
 Differences of opinion still exist with regard to the future of the money sit uation.
 The general feeling was that the ear- ly per cent. rate for money was more normal than the later rate of 1-2. Even when the lower rate prevailed bankers professed to be able to get or 6, if they desired.
 All of the foreign bonds were lower in London and there has been liquidation in Japanese issues for a week past. This latter is due to the reports of the poor financial condition of Japan.
 The gross earnings of the New York Central for September increased $S55- 756 or over 10 per cent The Septem- Der quarter shows gain of $2,372, 1862, also 10 per cent The total gross reve- nue of the system his year will be be- tween $S5, 100000 and $8S,000000.
 Western roads have still more ton mage than cars.
 Erie new convertible As were quoted on the curb yesterday at 1O1 1-2 and in- terest.
 New developments, outside of the money fmarket were unimportant but for the most part favorable
 Some of the stocks that went down easy yesterday were Canadian Pacific, Reading, Southern Pacific, Shelters, Locomotive and Louisville and Nash vile. Stop-loss orders were reached in most of these stocks.
 Part of the decline in the price Of Wabash securities yesterday was at- tributed to the dismissal of President
