CONTINUED DROP
 IN STOCK MARKET Money Situation Is Not As Good As FinancierS Desire LIQUIDATION IS HEAVY
Banks Call Loans Freely .and This Keeps Stocks on Down Grade Until Near the Close When
 Small Reaction Occurs.

New York, October 1.-The liquidating tendency of the stock market was rec pgnlzed with less qualification on the part of the element in the speculation which had been loath to admit the necessities Involved in the money situation. There was temporary reassurahce professed on this subject on account of the success achieved by the clearing house bands in evading deficit in the legal reserves last week Upon further consideration of the drastic loan contraction, which had to be made to barely maintain the surplus and of the low figure at which the actual sur plus still stood at the end of the week, the Saturday bank statement proved a source of further disquiet, rather than of satisfaction.
 The monetary confidence was taken ad- vantage of to the utmost, however, 10 push an advance in prices, United States Steel in particular being carried up to near S9 during the first hour From this vantage point the liquidation was re- newed on very large scale and pur- sued with only occasional pauses ana insignihcant rallies. The banks called loans freely and 1t was reported also that some of the out-of-town lenders in inc stock market were inclined to re- duce accommodations.
 The withdrawals of cash from New York for currency purposes also contin- ued large and interior banks expressed the same need by drawing in their New York balances to meet obligations to the government. The sub-treasury, as con- sequence, has already drawn $2,s4O,OOO from the banks on the new banking week and it was a creditor again at the clos ing hour today. An enormous loan re- duction, effected by the banks last week. involved, it is believed, little real liqui- dation of credits, but was due to shifting of obligations both in the domestic in terior and abroad. It was clearly realized that that process at the rate of s5O,o0OOO0 in single week could not be longer con- tnued.
 The perpendiculaf uplift of 1 per cent 1o per cent in the official discount rate of the Imperial Bank of Germany was an emphatic notice of determination to oppose obstacles to further free lending for speculative purposes. The lNeiy spec ulation which has been going on in Ger many has extended in no small degree to American securities, especially United States Steel, and the effect of the Ger man banks action was calculated, there- fore to have some direct effect on the New York stock market. Further re- course by borrowing ir foreign money markets is impeded by the large obliga- tions already outstanding there against the New York money market.

Huhhard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York. October (Special) )-Agaln large exports to Europe would seem 10 contradict the complaints of lack of de- mand from the spinner. Whether he IS taking this cotton at once or not II IS cer- tainy leaving this country on the scale of exports from the bumper crop of last season, a fact which may attract the attention of the American spinner.
 Predictions of frost tonight in the south west and a threatening storm over Key West brought about an advance of some IS points from the low prices made on the opening on the threatened curtail- ment. A reaction at the close left the market steady at points over last even ing. The market today was largely of holiday character, but the break-up in the weather and the continued large ex- ports brought about the rally. Cotton that goes out of the country seldom comes back. Liverpool should be points up tomorrow.

WHEAT ADVANCES
 OVER ONE CENT Demand At Mills Is Principal
 Cause of Upturn BULLS ARE AGGRESSIVE
Corn Market Is Heavy and With Light Offerings Prices Close a Little Lower-oats and Provisions
 Are Almost Unchanged.

Chicago, October 11.-Wheat advanced sharply today, May leading with net gain over Saturday of 1Bd1Ac. Corn oats and provisions were featureless af- fairs. prices holding close to Saturdays s levels.
 At the opening cables furnished the strengthening factor in wheat Liverpool advanced because a comparatively small share of the huge worlds shipments last week were consigned to Great Britain. During the day a good milling demand developed, new cash sales of 2OO'Oco bushels being reported. The domestic Vis- ible supply increased impressively but was 5O0,000 bushels under the increase at this time year ago. Bulls assumed tho aggressive and the market quickly devel- oped a scarcity of offerings. Closing prices were firm and closed the best of the day
 The corn market was heavy and prices easier most of the day. Offerings rom the country were light, but no lighter than the demand Prices fiuctuateo Wlth- in a range of half a cent, the more ac- tive months closing isc to Ac lower.
 Oats were dull, although the December delivery was fairly well supported, which operated to steady May prices as well. Cash oats in the sample market were steady.
 Provisions were quiet, but steady un- der the influence of a light run of hogs In the west and somewhat livelier demand for the cash product. Nearby lara was sold in moderate quantities by longs, while there was a speculative oeInaho lo, tha January article. Closing prices ranged from 1Oc lower for October ribs to 211c higher for pork.
