Wild Trading in Steel Throws
Market in Confusion.
PRICES LAYER MAKE RECOVERY
Investors who Believed steel
Corporation would he
Forced 10 Dissolve.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22-wnd trading in
United States Steel again threw the mar
ket into confusion today. Liquidation
was on even larger scale than yester-
day The railway shares no longer stayed
the market, but broke with the indus
trials. During the first hour United
states steel lost 5 points to 5SiA, and the
In the second hour II became apparent
that the tide had been turned. Prices
rose easily and board traders were forced
TO retreat
Another selling movement was inaug-
urated in the afternoon, but was Of much
smaller proportions.
The copper shares were attacked with
especial severity and lost heavily, Ameri-
can Smelling declining nearly points
Inc depression was only temporary,
however Toward the end of the day
United states Steel rose to 81 and prices
generally, except for the Hill copper and
steel shares, showed small net gains for
the day. United States steel subsequently
sold off, closing at Sc, a net loss of pa
sales Of United States Steel during the
Ilrst half hour amounted 10 245. 900 shares.
The days total was 717.SO0, the largest
amount of any stock handled in a day
since April Is 1902, when s64, 800 shares OF
southern Railway changed hands The
largest of the year.
In general the selling was ascribed to
nquidation by investors who believed
that the Steel corporation would be forced
to dissolve either as the result of a suit
instituted by the Department Of Justice
or as result OF action initiated by the
corporation Itself to ward off such a
suit.
Defeat OF the Canadian reciprocity bill
was to some extent responsible for the
sharp break in the railroad stocks The
am shares were most affected. Great

bound rose points.

StEE f-Aslde from smaller receipts
and a very quiet demand from all quar-
ters. conditions in the sheep and lamb
trade were much the same as on yester-
day. supply was estimated at 1000 head
desirable killing lambs Fat sheep were
scarce. Very few stale offerings we're
available in any branch of the market.
as yesterdays run cleared in good shape
more or less. Steady prices on both
feeder and fat stock were usually main
tained after movement finally started, but
The fresh run rounds off a five DAYS
total Of about 1856, 900 head, but even
though this aggregate is really large II
shows a loss Of almost 5000 head from
last weeks receipts. Decreased ship
ments have been reflected in prices. and
the demand on recent days was generally
lively and broad, Fat lambs OF choice
quality touched the s575 mark on two or
three occasions aud anything closing at
1856 and less lacks finish. Seconds
that are selling below S.26 at present
claim considerable competition from coun-
try buyers
Fat sheep we're a rare commodity and
proved popular with packers from the
start Good ewes mover around 50 500
5.75. the latter figure being high price.
Wethers reached s. but quality az this
level must be almost faultless. Choice
handy yearlings are wanted az $1,000 IS,
A brisk country demand for feeders
until today produced a market that had
and in-between offerings were more
plentiful than any other class Of stock.
According to packers tab the four days
purchase on country account amounts to
about $4,000 head. Iowa and Nebraska
are taking the big bulk. Feeder lambs
ranged around s. .00d5,2S. while feeder
ewes sold from sass downward. Feeder
yearlings at $40 is also a creditable sale,
but they have been hard to find as q gem
eral rule.
Compared with a week ago fat lambs
show advances of about a quarter fat
sheep are closing a dime to quarter
higher and feeder classes are about $50
25c up. Exception is made for feeder
ewes, however, as they have scored

OMAHA, Sept p. 1911
The radical defeat OF reciprocity yester-
day In the Canadian vote put ell wheat
operations on a different basis today.
The vote removed at once an element OF
great uncertainty which has depressed
the trade for months and sets aside the
chief bear argument. The ERECT was
very bullish. prices at the opening being
well above yesterdays close. With the
Canadian wheat shut out there will DO
an increased demand for hard winter

ton.
There is little doubt but that the un-
certainty in wheat has held corn from
advancing. With wheat on the upturn

surprising to see a renewal Of bull opera
