NEW YORK, October 16-Stocks for
the greater part of this mornings ses-
sion were under the influence of pront
taking sales, offset by purchases for the
account OF traders, who had taken cour-
age from the apparent resumption OF
the upward movement in the market
toward the end of the week.
London sent over generally lower
range of quotations for American STOCKS
and the opening here was at correspond
ing declines. The chief feature of the
initial dealings was United States Steel,
which opened wide on 1900 shares.
Thereafter the price movement was gen.
orally irregular and confused.
The so-called Gould stocks participated
more generally than they did yesterday
in the movement of Denver and Rio
Grande. No information was obta1nable
of an authoritative nature, but. never
theless, it continues to be intimated in
some quarters that the railroads which
these stocks represent figure in some
important pending developments. The
Rock Island issues and the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas issues were affected by
profit taking, but their tone was rather
strong.
In the industrial list American Cotton
Oil and Central Leather scored substan-
tiai advances. On the other hand. Union
Pacific, Southern Pacific. Reading, Anal
gamated Copper and the United States
Steel issues manifested heaviness under
pressure. Pennsylvania was more or less

Extensively Irregular.

About the beginning of the last hour
the market was extensively irregular and
the general tendency was downward un-
der selling. alleged to be apprehensive of
an unfavorable exhibit by the banks.
Talk of the manipulative character of the
transactions continued, but there is this
much to be said of the accusation that
manipulation does not as a rule impose
any very severe strain on credit supplies.
The salient financial event of the morn
ing was a sharp rise in foreign exchange,
demand sterling advancing 20 points. This
makes rise of about " cent for the
week.
Other news of the usual routine sort was
propitious; bank clearings throughout the
country increased about Fl per cent for
the week and the weekly reviews Of trade
conditions reported that the cold weather
had had a stimulating effect on the dis
tribution of business and that improve
ment still continued in trade, collections
and industry.

Texas and other parts of the United
states present conditions very similar
to those of the Bokharan desert. and
for this reason the sheep ought tn do
well here He intends ito acquire
large tract Of land in the hills west
of this city and there will breed his
sheep. both pure and crossed with
Texas stock While the meat Of the
pure Bokharan Is excelled by no other
mutton in the world. the wool of this
animal Is a little too coarse to be used
for anything but the making of car
pets As a matter of fact. most of the
famous oriental rugs are made from
its hair. Interbreeding the karakule
has resulted, DIR. Young says, in the
production of the four best breeds of
sheep in the world as far as CONNER
cial value and meat is concerned.
These are the Persian Broadtail, the
Kimmer, the Astrakhan and the Ar
CHAN sheep. The common scrub sheep
of Persia bred to the Karakuie pro-
duced the first, the sheep of the
Grimos and karakules the second, the
sheep from the vicinity of Astrakhan
and the karakules the third. and the
sheep Of the interior of Asia crossed
with the karakule bred the famous
Afghan sheep. producing the finest
wool now known commercially. All
of these provide excellent furs. known
best 10 US as Astrakhan and Persian
lamb.
Adipose deposits on the tail and but
took of the karakuie enable it to go
for many days without food or water.
and for this reason vast regions in
the United States win be brought to
profitable use with the introduction
of the Karakuie Eokharan. The wool
of the animal grows remarkably quick
and three shearings year are neces-
sary. The texture OF its wool Is long,

the elegant effect of Russian and Box
haran rugs silk is used in their manu-

ing Of the sheep in this country would,
no doubt, furnish an impetus to carpet
weaving in the United States.
The karakule is very prolific in re-
production and imparts this quality to
very great degree in its crosses DR.
