NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Process of Digestion Of Profits is Man.
ifssted as Day Wore On.
OUTSIDE ORDERS INCREASE
Demand IL red ~ Careful DistrIbu-
tIOn and Proht Takins - Not
Pushed ut Expense Of
NaIues.

NEW YORK. oct. IA process OF di-
gestion Of speculative profits was in prog
ress in today's stock market and its effect
on prices was quite clearly manifest as
the day wore on. Transactions during the
first hour were on a very large scale and
tho market had all the appearance Of great
strength end animation at that time. Yes
terday's demonstration of revived interest
and strength had the effect Of attracting
9 new lot Of buyers, largely OF = minor
speculative basis. Warehouses and COM
mission houses reported q considerable in
crease Of volume Of orders from outside
sources. II was this demand that was fed
by distribution Of selling orders, TO the re-
lief Of the burden of holdings Of the spec
ulative element that has conducted the re-
cent campaign. The reaction which FOL
lowed lacked explanation in the news OF
the day quite as much as the rise Of yes
terday. The two movements, in fact. We're
quite generally recognized as compli-
mentary parts OF the same speculative
operation. The Skill and address with
which the movement was conducted gave
evidence of the experience and resources
Of the leaders and gave rise 10 suppCSi-
lions that notable old hands at this work
were coming back into the market after
a period Of withdrawal and absence from
Wall street. Dealings continued much con
gested IN . few stocks, but the manner III
which the new stocks were made active
and strong to divert attention from really
ing sales where the advance has already
occurred strongly recalled the favorito
methods Of some of the older leaders of
speculative movements. When the reuliz-
lnR was deterPed and me protrsStuttAt -cte-
ment OF the room traders attempted to fol-
low the movement by short sales the mar
ket fell into dizziness. The profit-taking
was not pushed urgently at the expense OF
| values.
Advicos concerning the copper trade gave
some ground for assumptions Of actual bet
torment of conditions and prices of the
metal were marked up again both here
and I'm London. A story came from lon'
don that a powerful combination had beer
formed among American producers Of the
metal 10 maintain prices. Local confirm
alton of this report was lacking, but 9
substantial expansion in demand from con
sumers was reported and some heavy sales
were said to have been effected at a firm
price. An item Of the days news that hat
a cheering influence was the purchase Of
some large orders of print cloth for future
delivery from the New England mills
Rains In the west were Of good effect
although the lack Of them in the Ohit
valley was still an Influence in strengthen
irg the wheat market.

points were fairly well supplied and there
seemed to be a general Keeling OF weak
ness everywhere, so That buyers We're IN,
in the forenoon before enough business had
been transacted to make a market.
The market on beef steers was extremely
slow and dull throughout. Buyers began
by bidding lower and instead of improving,
the market, IL anything, grew worse.
About the best that could be said of IL
would be to call it dun. with prices any
where from 1Oc to loo than yester-
day. This means that outside of the very
best range beeves, which are not so much
lower, the. general run OF cattle are 100
25c lower than last weeks close.
The market on cows and heffefs was
also dull and generally l0ql5c lower than
yesterday or around 25c lower than last
weeks close. While some very good fleshy
feeders sold az high at A.S, the general
market was very duh, showing about the
same decline as killing cattle. The cholC-
est fleshy grades, which have been In
moderate supply all the week, have not
shown so much decline. fhe general run
OF fair to pretty good feeders are any
where from loo to 25c lower, with inferior
and trashy kinds extremely hard to move
at bottom prices.

CHICAGO, oct. 2.-News from Argen-
tina was again the chief factor in the
local wheat market and caused a sharp
upturn In prices today. Although all OF the
gain was not maintained. the market
closed firm, with prices up Ac to 1sc. Corn,
oats and provisions were easy.
I'll wheat market was strong all day,
although sentiment in the pit was less bull
ish during the final hour. At the opening
the market was influenced by an advance
OF AZ to a pence in Liverpool, which, II
was said, was due to lighter offerings from
argentina and TO late dispatches from
Rosario, which claimed that the damage py
ftost to the Argentina crop would probably
roach as high as 10 per cent OF the total
yield, The. market here was also AFFECTED
statfsticians ON the amount of wheat TO
be shipped from Argentina this week, this
authority claiming that the exports this
week would be much less than was indi-
Gated by previous advices. An active de;
mand for cash wheat in the northwest and
southwest also tended TO strengthen the
market here. Minneapolis houses reported
that cash wheat premiums there had ad-
he highest premiums paid this season
while Duluth reported thirty boat loads
taken for export st. Louis and Kansas
for the cash grain at those points. Weather
conditions in this country, which appar-
emily had little effect early in the day.
caused some selling late in the session.
Rain was again predicted in sections OF
the winter wheat belt, which, IL it ma
terializes, win promote fan blowing. The
