NEW YORESTOCES AND BONDS
Market Becomes Lethargic Because Of
Doubtful Factors Overhanging Il.
COPPER DEALS STILL IN AIR
Long Expected Financial plan OF
Missouri Pacific IL Announced
and Bends Go TO slight
Premium on Curb.

NEW YORK, Nov 1.-THE condition Of
the speculation In stocks became somewhat
letharg,c today as a consequence Of val
Gus doubtful factors overhanging the stu
alton. The swelling OF the outward move
ment OF gold to South America was one
such factor. The lack Of further response
in the copper industry to the constellation
project was another.
The tone for time loans was slightly
easier. IL changed at all New York eN-
change at Chicago slipped back to a slight
discount. There was decided falling off
in the private discount rate in London,
causing apprehension Of check to the in
flow of gold to London. Confidence is felt
in very strong Bank of England return
tomorrow, as a result of the week & I'M
pIovement. Some Significance attaches to
reports OF funds Offered in Wall street by
the dry goods banks, from which is In
ferred lull in that trade for which the
high price of cotton is given some re
spOnsibIlity The falling back into quetude
OF the coppers must be explained by sus-
picion Of the reports Of the consolidation
and the admittedly chaotic state in which
the project stlll stands. The influence
Of the American Telephone absorption
OF the Western Union was seen
In the ease with which advances
were forced In minor Independent compan-
les in which a dominant combination eN-
lists, such as the smaller iron and steel
companies. The long expected Union Pa
cific financial plan made its appearance
with the announcement of the placing with
banks OF an Issue of S29, sos 900 iii st and
refunding convertible bonds, underwater
at 95, the price at which they are offered
to stockholders. A small premium was es-
tablished in the quotation for the bonds
by dealings when issued, In the outside
market AS part OF an Issue of $4,000 coo
for which authority is to be asked Of the
stockholders, and with announcement In

WEATHER IN THE GRAIN BELT
Back to the Top for Mercury, Under
Fair Sky.

OMAHA, Nov. II, 1909.
The disturbance, central over the valleys
Tuesday morning, continued eastward dur
ing the last twentyfour hours and is now
central over the St Lawrence valley. Rain
and snow attended this disturbance over
the lake region and Ohio valley and it is
causing light SHOWS in the lower lake re-
gion and general rains throughout the east
ern states this morning. Colder weather is
following the disturbance and temperatures
are decidedly lower from the Missouri river
east to the Ohio valley and lake region
and south over the central valleys to the
gulf. Except that rains are falling on the
north Pacific coast the weather is generally
clear west of the Missouri river, with tenn
peratures rising in the west and northwest
and the outlook is favorable for fair and
warmer in this Vicinity tonight and Thurs
day.

CAITLE-Receipts o: catLie this morning
were fairly liberal, 204 cars being reported
in. Unfortunately trains were late In
many cases 50 that the morning was Wen
advanced before the receipts were all IN
sight. This naturally delayed The tade
somewhat, but still the market as whole
was in very good condition.
Beef steers of desir4 bic quality were In
demand and such cattle as would answer
that description sold very freely at good
steady 10 strong prices
I Cows of the kind that killers could make
good use of were also good sellers at fully
steady prices but, owing 10 the late ar
rival of several trains, the day was well
fected.
Feeder buyers were out in force and any
thing that they could make use of sold 10
good advantage in about the same notches

LONDON, Nov. 17.-Money was easier on
the market today and discount rates We're
weak, causing some fear that gold im-
ports viii be checked thereby. on the
stock exchange The announcement in th4
House or Lords regarding the budget
caused much comment but did not affect
the markets, which continued quietly ir-
regular. British securities were suffi-
eiently supported by inves ors to prevent
setback, but kaffirs yielded on further
continental liquidation. Copper shares
dropped and Mexican railway stochs
weakened under poor traffic returns.
American securities were quiet and steady
during the early trading and generally al
parity. Heaviness developed m the early
afternoon, but later New York support

included in tOday's meager run, buyers
for packers started out very leisurely to

A heavily supplied market at Chicago, with
early advices decidedly bearish, had much
to do with the easier tendency at this
point and the fact that South Omaha
prices on fat stock lately have been little
different from eastern levels did not serve
to improve the situation. Most sales, how
