look for trade, the monetary situation ands
governmental relations to business en-
tered as factors i'm forming the prevail
ing sentiments in the securities markets
this week.
The unfavorable deductions drawn wers
reflected in the stocks downward move
ments.
OF trade prospects, conditions in the
steel and iron industry were most influen-
tiaL Doubt as to the effect of the new
tariff rates explained the halt in buying
orders. Consumers hoped for lower prices
and held back.
The extent to which imports will COM

The United States Steel corporations

secutive month here through reports OF
price cutting by Independent producers.

Stress laid ON railroad buying as

Poor railroad earnings drew attention to
the contest of the railroads for higher
freight rates. and against wage increases
to eastern trainmen. Government activi-
ties were taken into account in the suit
to divorce Southern Pacific and Central
Pacific, and dropping of the banking and
currency bill. Money markets showed the
autumn forces of depletion still at work
with higher interest rates resulting both
here and abroad. Customs payments on
imports released from bond by the new

mo GOOD SUPPORT
IN WHEAT MARKET
Well Directed Selling Pres
sure Causes Break.
Close Nervous

Chicago October u.-Well directed SELL
ing pressure today caused wheat's break.
There was no good support. The market
closed nervous, ss@7se lower. Corn finished
7s@@c down; oats at decline OF 1z4ssc
and provisions uneven, fluctuating from
121sc loss to an advance of 21s cents.
Notwithstanding that cables were firm,
the bears captured control of wheat al
most at the outset, and managed through
out the session to prevent any important
rally Brokers for well known specula-
tor were conspicuous in the selling, but
many OF the larger houses Joined in the
raid on prices.
Wheat longs had to contend with the
fact that receipts here this week were
larger than the shipments, tho first show
ing of the sort in some time. Winnipeg
arrivals beside were about equal to last
week and far in excess of a year ago
with stocks pillng up at Duluth and Min
neapolis despite d falling off in the move
nent from first hands.
The accommodating supplies and the slow
ness OF shipping call furnished incen-
tive for the bears in corn. Notice was
also taken of the increasing extent of
imports from Argentina.
The active trade took place around
the downward range, many of yesterday 5
buyers selling out, and elevator people
taking a lively part on the bear side.
Oats slumped because of the setback
suffered by other grain. Buying power
was limited to resting orders in the hands
of commission men.
Contrary to strength at the yards pro-
visions displayed sympathy with the up
set inflicted on cereals. The principal
deliveries underwent a decline.
