NEW YORK. October 1O-The dull and

that the speculative element was little in
clined to take chances on what might oc-

Of affairs in southeastern Europe The re
was some relaxation of the tension on
that account. but this was owing partly
TO the fact that business for the day was
over in London before 1t began here.
New York was thus deprived of its most

developments. The London market itself.

more tranquil tone and some tendency to-

of the day before. British consols sharing

TO the disposition OF the bear party to

be,
The local market was free from the
pressure of foreign liquidation which has
overwhelmed 1t on each successive day OF
the week, and the way was thus opened
to moderate advances. The prominence of
the Hartman stocks and of Rock Island
in this movement was testimony to the
influence of yesterdays development
pointing to Hartman interest in Rock
Island affairs, which was inferred from
the financing of ST. Louis and San Fran
cisco obligations by the principal Harri-
man bankers.
Another ground for the hesitating and
irregular stock market was the question
of gold exports and its possible effect on
the money market. September's large ex-
ports of agricultural products, reported
today. and the obligation incurred by for
eign markets to pay for them, supply an
additional incentive for foreign selling Of
American securities here as an offset in
order to adjust the exchanges. The
value of exports of this class in Septem-
Der rose to the highest total since Feb
ruary, when We were still pushing the
marketing of our products to help out the
financial crisis.

of thousands of men were financially
hurt by the destruction of racing as a

has been worked industriously to excite
the antagonism of an important foreign
born element which has been led to be-
Hevs that the governor is intolerant to a
dangerous degree. Advantage has been
