10 THE REPUBLIC: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1901.

SUMMARY OF ST.

Bears In tho local market were prematurely exultant yesterday. They went Intothe pit with tho confident belief that everything would como their way. Karly nentpecmed to justify the assumption. There was no foreign demand, and receipts of grainat all domestic markets wcro heavy, while clearances wcro light. That mysteriousInfluence called sympathy pot in Its work on wheat. After tho Initial decline, duoto continued realizing, corn started on the upturn. Holders of wheat were not takingspy chances on a spread between the two markets, and that was the reason why'wheat advanced with sill the "gossip" against It.

Good buying of corn developed after tho first, hour, prompted mainly by bullish cropreports of later date than the Government estimate. Many traders who sold 'Wednes-day came back into tho market on the other side.

Dec. wheat opened unchanged at TlKc, dropped to W.iiCTc, and closed US'-i- upat 7U;71?c Jlay opened unchanged at 75c and closed with the same figure bid.

Tho early rush to sell Dec corn caused that option to cpen Mliic, lower at SSfp

CSJJ. The market went to VSfcc and closed with an offer at that price, a gain of ?.;j:c.3Iay opened unchanged at 60c, dropped to j3Kc and closed with a bid of W.ic, an ad-vance of 3,jc

Trading In oats was extremely light. May sold He off nt 03c, hut there was a bidof 33!i?TKMc nt the close.

Produce wa easier nil around, except on the choicest grades, which were scarce.Pcachc wcro unchanged on common stock, but much higher on fancy varieties. Ap-

ples, pears and plums were pi.iutli.MlIy unchanged. Potatoes and cabbage were !nbetter supply and lower.

On tho local Stock Kchange the volume of trading was not heavy. Tractions wcrostill In good demand, especially United Hallways preferred. Iloth Mississippi ValleyTrust and Commonwealth Trust advanced In rcspoii'-- e to a heavy buying demand.

Tho market for live stock was dull, with prices steady.Local banks and trust companies did a good loan business. Discount? ranged from

4& to P.a per cent, with the prevailing rales between and 6 per cent.

CORN WAS THE LEADER.

IN OPTION TRADING.

LATE NEWS SENT FUTUREMARKET UPWARD.

Wheat Responded and There Wasa General Advance in

Prices.

j..Dullncss'ana apathy wcro tho distinguish-ed characterisUces of yesterday's wheatmarket. Corn showed some activity, ad-

vancing sharply after the first decline. Thisstrength of the coarser grain was the onlyexplanation of the stiffening of wheat to-

ward the end of the' session.All the early wheat news was bearish.

Cables were. off. Receipts both In theNorthwest and In.Bt. Louis wero heavyend there was no evidence of pufiicientforeign demand to justify further buying.

A bearish card was tho report of thoCincinnati Price Current that no change inthe crop condition bad been noted sincethe Issuance of the monthly Governmentestimate., Dec. wheat opened unchanged and sold

A net gain of USUc was recorded. Mayripened and closed unchanged at 73c.

Com showed considerable strength. Therewas an early rush to sell on weaker for-eign markets and a general desire to real-ize, but later news was of a distinctly hull-- ,lsh character. The Cincinnati Price Cur-rent had the temerity to put Its judgmentagainst that of tho Government experts tothe extent of asserting that the conditionof tho crop had not deteriorated since theAugust crop report was issued.

This Inspired many buyers with new con-fidence and the effects "of the early sellingwere quickly wiped out. Reports of heavy.sales for export helped the bullish causealong.

Wnll Street Goa-l- p.

Reported by Francis. Bro. & Co., No. 214 NorthFourth street:London cables reported the market there for

Americans tn'Klected. but witli a stroni; marketfor their own shares. The arbllrase trndinrjhere was llsht. abaut 10.000 shares in all. mostlypurchases cf small amounts of arlous stocks,

Demers. Atchison, St. l'aul. Erie andSouthern Pacific.

The great part cf speculatlie Interei,t In themarket was in St. Paul. This stock was .oilearly on statement tint miy the regular divi-dend would be declared. About half of the .el!-ii-

it as for short aciount. At the same timethere was fairly large selling cf long stcs-- k hywhat are called good houses. The buvlrig wanequally good, nnd the lirgest l.uers Inslrted thatthey knew un extra dividend cf 1 per cent woubbe declared. Rrokers for the principal (".peculatlvointerests said thty had no deflnlie Informationabout the dlvldeni. and wero In earnest In min-ing this statement.

After the announcement of the declaration ofSt. Paul dividend of 3 per rent, the same as InApril, without an extra dividend, there was nru.h to sell the Hock by the early buers. Thes-eal- es

carried the prices down from 1G3 toIn a few minutes, but. as In other stocks duringthe day. there was continued bulng on the ,ie.cllnes. and the bujers oeemed disposed to refuseto accept the disappointment as a bear factor.

The ceneral list was sold bv traders becauseof disappointment over the failure to declare anextra dividend on St. Paul. These sales wereheavy enough to cnusn material declines allaround the room In the last hour.

A sale of 100 .hares of Northern Pacific wasmsde by V. M. Lockwood & Co. to John Muir at1221. the same price nt'nhich the last slle wasmade. There was an Inquiry for that "tock, butno supply was in sight.

There was a goo.; deal of what was calledcross trading In slocks like Union Pacific andAtchlon. being sold by Influential houer. butwere taken nt the same time by houes equillyImportant. It was thought In the board that nneset of bankers kept pressure on the marketwith the Idea ef restricting bull speculation,whllo oilier Interests In bought and bidup Flocks whenever this pressure uas removed.This cross trading made the market unsettledand Irregular during the greater part of the day.

The usual sharp ndvanre noted at IntervalsIn cotnpirntlvely Inactive stocks was made

y In Cnnada Southern, which was move-- : up,J'J points without news of any kind and at atime when no special developments could be ex-pected. It was explained In one quarter by arevival ef the story of a general ronsolldttlon ofall the Vandnrbllt roads, hut while this storymay have goo I foundation, there was no apparentreason for making it a bull card at present.

The money was called stronger and many nAwloans on call were msde at 4W Per cent, I. A; S.Wormser loaning J'.OOO.OOO nt that rate. The de-mand was attributed chiefly to th3 closing In ofseveral millions of money loaned jesterday bythe Bank of Cornmcreo.

Outside market was quiet anil generally lower,with Tobacco 4s again the only Issue In nnv wnynctlve. About J300.00O of these Imnds were tradedin at prices ranging from fR'i to 7t. Oe0. I.tn-ro- n

was the principal buyer. C. I. Hudson AtCo. were prominent sellers. Union Copper wasv lower at S1..
