ouirv Into the legality of the close rela- tions between the railroads In that group was to be revived and actively pushed. The fact that considerable profits had accrued to speculators long of the market at the low levels reached last month in- creased the disposition to sell with the evidence of instability in the market.
 No details of the bids for the New York city band issue in tatulated form were available in Wall street in time for the consideration of the stock market, put enough was known of the terms of the principal bids to make it evident that the total issue would be taken at a premium fairly corresponding to the quotations es- tablished for the bonds when issued Tn the curb market. This also no more than confirmed previous favorable inferences and failed to restore strength to the mar ket, closing prices being at aoout the lowest of the day. The unprecedented number of bidders for the New fork cl,y bonds was not without it's impressive ef- feet as evidence of stirring of investment interests in the ranks of capital. The easing tendency of the call money rate, after the early stiffness, was accepted also as indicating the passing of the on- set of the bond subscription requirements The failure of a minor stock excnange firm was without significance.

LITTLE CAUSE FOR ALARM

New York, September 10.-There were various cross currents in the speculation in stocks today and the most obvious eff feet of the conflicting causes at work was to stimulate a considerably revival of activity. Prices moved more freely than for some time past and the professional room traders had their opportunity to operate in and out of the market on a large scale. It Is probable that the days dealings were made up In an important proportion of this class, yesterdays seem tions until the result of the New York city bond sale and the government crop report should become known was aban- doned and the business during the morn ing at the stock exchange was in excess of the average for a full days aggregate for some days past.
 The principal development of the day and which gave the predominance to the weakness of the copper stocks in It's in fluence on the whole market was the re- newed unsettlement in that trade. The reduction of the quarterly dividend dis bursement on the Calumet and Hecla stock from s2O to s15 was an example of the effects of the fall in the price of copper that was of conclusive effect on sentiment owing to the important share fin production of lake copper enjoyed by the company. Hitherto there has been A disposition to assume that the decline In copper had not seriously impaired the earning power Of the company, This as- sumption was shaken by the Calumet and Hecla incident. The effect was aggra- vated by another downward plunge in the quotations of copper in the London market and by another fractional reduc- tion in the price per pound at the local metal exchange.
 The general list was inclined to disre- gard the full effect of the copper weak ness for a time and did not at any time share fully in the wesSness of that group. The acute depressioIEin the Hill group owed something to the report that the interstate commerce commission in-

New York, September 10.-The cotton market was nervous and unsettled again today, after moderate early advance sold off sharply in the late trading, with the exception of September, which closed 2s points net higher, while other months were Il to 13 points net lower. Sales for the day were estimated at 350,0o0 bales. The closing tone was steady.
 The market opened steady at unchanged prices to an advance of 5 points, and dur ing the middle of the morning worked up to a net gain of to points on the ac- tive months and off 83 points on Septem- Der, which felt the effect of support from the parties who stopped notices earlier in the month and the absence of fresh business. The advance was due to fairly steady cable reports of low temperatures in the western belt covering by yester- days sellers and support from the bulls in the nearby months. But offerings in- creased in the afternoon and the market broke under a renewal of liquidation and bear pressure. promoted by more favor able wekely bureau report than expected, the forecast for warmer weather in the western belt, rumors of an easier spot situation, the weakness in Wall street and uncertainty regarding the action of the revision committee which meets to- morrow.
