The transactions in the stock market to-day
were larger than for many days, and were at
tended by considerable excitement, especially in
the afternoon, when prices cava way and rapidly
declined In moit of the active shares. The feel
ing in the forenoon was almost entirely bullish,
though the traders were selling, eren at that
time, bat the bovine was pood and there seemed
to be a wider interest to the speculation. Later,
however, Atchison declined rapidly, and a drive
was nie at the Uoull stocks, Missouri PeeiCo
In particular, while the news of the ei.OCO.000 .
failure in Chicago cam in to unsettle conn
fence aod the "bears' were not slow
to take advantage of thefatorable combination,
Stop orders were reached all over the active list,
and prices declined rapidly, carrying even the
strong stocks cf the forenoon with them, and at
the eloee almost all the early gains had been
wipd out. Union Pacific was again the crest
feature of the market, end during the forenoon
was very strong on a still larger business than
has been scored on any previous day. The buy
ing which has been so persistent in the stock is
still a mystery to the street, and to-dsy many
influential men were mentioned as the probable
purchasers, while the friends of the stock were
prochesyiug an early dividend. Toe
Northern Paeific group next loomed np ioto
promicene, and the Northern Pacifio prefer!,
and Off son Transcontinental both made hand
some gains. A sudden aod radical change came
over the temper of the speculation, however,
and Atchison and Missouri Pacific led, whil all
the Boston favorites were s-pecmlly weak. Nor
fori & Western rerferred was also quite
weak on a liiht business; the strong stocks all
1oind the procession, and before the close
Vnion Pacific had b-en depressed nearly 1 per
cent, below the closing price of list evening.
First prices were from g to $ above last nicht's
figures, and under the lend of Union Pacific the
rasrket rapidly advanced, the gains in the
leaders extending to 1J re? cent.
The advance stopped about soon,
and after that time there was a slow
decline in the general lift, whiie Missouri Pa
einef Richmond & Wast Point preferred aod
Kock Island lost heavily. Atchison made an
other dip and the whole market soon became
demoralize!, and in the last hour Union Pacifio
beeamo a feature in the decline. The market
showed no change, and the close was aetive and
weak at the lowest prices of the day. The active
list is almost invariably lower, and Atchison
lost 41; Missouri Pacific, 2; Norfolk & Western
Point preferred. If, Chieago, Burlington " &
Quioey. 1J; Oregon short-line, 1 per cent, and
ethers fractional amounts.
The railroad bond market was quiet, though
th Reading issues were again prominent for
activity. The sales of all issues reaened f 1.157,
000, aod to tbftt amount Reaiing seconds fur
nished $113,000. aod the thirds $130,000. The
market followed toe share liat very closely, be
ing firm in the forenooo, but it weakened later,
and the gains are in a majority this evening.
Important 'changes in quotations, however, are
few in onmber. The losses include Gulf, Col
orado & Santa Fe aeeonds, 2 at 00, and Iron
Mountain fives, 2 at S7.
Government bonds were dull, but steady to
arm.
State bonds were dull and steady. Closing

CHICAGO, Oct. 19. Trading in wheat was
slow to-day. and the market on the whole very
quiet, though occasional sparta were witnessed,
when moderate trading occurred. Very little
outside business was done, and local operators
also restnetiog their trading" ic wheat, there
being a general disposition to hold aloof from
the market wbile it is in the present condition.
The opening was stronger and higher, and an
advance of lis for December and le for May on
the closing figures of yesterday was soon es
tablished. Prices then declined 13 IJc, held
within this range, and closed about Jo higher
for December and io lower for May than yester
day. Speculative transaetions in corn
were of onlr moderate volume, very
little life or animation being dis
played. The prevailing feeling was one of
steadiness, the market opening at about closing
prices of vesterday, and ruling inactive some
time, the fluctuations being nsrrow. A short'
period of activity then followed, the maket rul
ing stronger aod advancing Jc from the inside
price; reacted 2c, rnling steady and closing the
same as yesterday. Oats were quiet but firm,
and near futures were the same to Jc better, as
compared with yesierday's closiog. Msy de
livery, which Is the center of trade, was com
paratively quiet, ranging ic lower early, react
ing later and closing finally e easier. Mess pork
was aetire, especially for January delivery.
Advancing 27ie from resterdsy's close,
reacting 12e. rallying 7Jc, but gradually weaken
ing aod closing at a moOerate advance over yes
terday's lat sales. Tndiug in other futures
was light and prices were confined to a narrow
range. In lard there was a fair demand for all
the principal futures early, but later the msrket
became qniet. Offerings were not large, and a
steady foeling prevailed There was a fair
trade in Jaonary ribs, but other futures were
neglected. Odoringi were moderate and de
mand at times quite brisk, and priees advanced
.10c, but outside figures were not maintained t
the close. The leading futures ranged as fol
lows: Ofxninj. JIighe$L Lcwtit, Cloning,

DUN & CO.'S REVIEW.
Dreadstuffs Kxportatlons at a StDdstlll.Le
gitimate Trd, llorver,I Wry Large.
NEW YORK, Oct. 19. R. O. Dun & Ca's
weekly review of trade says: Exports of bread
stuffs, cotton, provisions, petroleum and cattle
from the principal ports in September were
$33,208,679 in valne. agiticst $37,049,761 last
year. But since Oct. 1 the bresdstoffs move
ment has been almost entirely arrested, as is
natural, with prices at New York higher than
at Liverpool, and December wheat as high at
Chicago as at New York. Perception of the un
natural state of the markets has led to some de
clines during the week, wheat having fallen 42c
corn 2e, hoes and lard i each, cotton t". re-
i fined oil ttJe eame; aod petroleum certificates
During the week the treasury ra'.d out $12,
000,000 gold, $2,400,000 silver, and $000,000 legal
tenders. An addition ef over $15,COO,l0'J to the
circulation in a week would tend, in ordinary
conditions, to lift prices in speculative markets,
and yet the tendency in priees has heu down
ward durin? the week. Eery interior point re
porting represects business a improving, and at
not a few points it is 'arzer than a year ago.
The increased transactions at speculative centers
swell bank clearings, so that toe increase outside
of New York over lest year is about 10 per csnt.,
but, with full .allowance for the influence ot
speculation, it is evident that the volume of
legitimate trade is aljo very laree. No com
plaint of scarcity of icney is heard, aod the de
mand from this city, tboveh still large, shows
some sizns of abatement. Nor are complaints
of tardiness in collections as frequent as toey
were reeeotly.
A decrease of 1.000 tons in tee weekly output
of eharcoal iron makes tb net increase during
September in iron of all kinds, 3.645 toos week
ly, Or 3 per cent. The market for pig is a wait
ing one, withoat change in prireg. Bar iron is
rather less firm, owing to Western offering, and
in raiU no Eastern sales are reported, and only
lO.COO tons at Pittsburg and 20.000 tons at Chi
cago. The official report shows the.i sales for
nioemontl'ft, ending Oct. 1, were 1,134.883 tons,
against 1,8J3,12G last year, and deliveries 921.363
tons, agaiost 1,290.825 laat year. The coal trade
is now quiet In lead a fa.l of 40 cents per
ICO pounds in a day was attributed entirely
to speculation, and the same influences liftrd
coffee slightiy, tbouen the distributive demand
is still restricted. The sugar market favors
buyers, and in groeeries generally there is eom
evidence of slacking demand. The wool market
continues strong, with the best grades scarce,
acd priees have again slightly advanced. A
firmer fesllog is noted in dry roods, tnough the
trade at present is only moderate, and buyers
continue to operate with eaution.
The failures occurring throughout the coun
try daring the week number 224, 'as compared
with 227 last week, and 211 the week previous.
For the eorresnoodiag week of last year the
figures were 201. '

The Effects of the Late Heavy Ralos Still
Interfering with Trade.
"j IXDIAICAPOLIS, Oct. 19.
Trade to day, as well as in tnt two days pre
ceding, owing to the heavy rains and bad roads,
has been rather quiet, yet the situation, gener
ally is quite satisfactory. Staple groceries are.
very firm in tone, and especially will this re
mark apply to sugars. In coilees there is a
slight advance, but many dealers are afraid to
buy. fearing that looked-for receipts of Kios and
Santos will lower tbe market As a conseoneuce
storks in the bands of jobbers and retailers
bave diminished to sued an extent that
higher prices will probably prevail
for a time, at least. In the produce markets
there is a good deal of activity. Aptdes and po
tatoes aro both selling better, ana parties who
are able are now laying in their winter stocks.
Poultry is steady at present quotations. Eegs
are in lizbt supply and selling readily at 17
cents. Choice butter finds ready tale. Tbe
seed market continues active, with firm prices.
Tbe leather dealers report trade good at un
changed priees, while the hide market is active,
although prices aro no higher with the increas
ing activity.
