DAY, TO TAKE jL/URKET FROM io.VG IXTEBESTS.- A' NUMBER OF /RALLIES. Rumor BnVytn <h<- Matter of the Co«I-?<rikc 51<nation— Some. Heavy Drdinc*. But Louses Curtailed by rinnl t'ptarn. NEW YOKK. October €.— To_-day"s reac lonary f' rt f' K market was typical of a vfll-ordered liquidation. The bears were jlcrt and agpres^iyc all day. to take away Die market from the long- interests, but they showed their fear of overrunning the market by the frequency with which they bought to cover their short con tracts. This operation caused a number of checks to the downward course 01 prices, and of rallies reaching from one 10 two points In a few stock. Reading was twice lifted above last week/s level by these rallies, and rumor was busy in Wall Street all day. regarding the jkxl developments in the coal strike situation. The continued manifestation of interest in the subject by President Koospvelt jrave rise to the expectation of new steps to be taken by him. There were many inconsistent reports as to the intentions of Governor Stone, of Penn fc-ylvan'.a. concerning the use of the mili tnry. The anthracite group was inclined to resist the reactionary tendency on this account. St. Paul also made a visible resistance to the decline, and shared in the occasional rallies. The determi nation of stockholders to issue new stock to the extent of ■ 525.000,000. and the sub scription thus implied, helped the stock. j\ will be seen that neither of these stocks entirely escaped the prevailing, pressure to sell, which carried the gen eral list down from one to over throe jiointf. with a large sprinkling of 4-polnt lossep. The southwestern cotton and corn carriers were notable sufferers, doubtless on account of unfavorable crop reports. There were some heavy declines in the inactive list, Wells-Fargo, and United States Express dropping 15 points. New York Air Brake. 10: Northwestern nearly i>. Lacka%vanna 71-2. and Brooklyn Union Gas and Rock Island G each. .; Some" of the Josses were curtailed by the rally which was in progress at me close of the mar ket, due to the covering by. shorts. MONEY UP TOii. To-day's money market reflected clear ly enough the policy of the banks in re rallinp loans from the stock market, as vas foreshadowed by the action of the (""learing-House Committee on Saturday, in abstaining from availing themselves of the proffered release of the reserves spainta povernment deposits. The money rate ran up to 12 per cent, it midday, and again to that level be lore the close. There was strict discrim ination also in accepting collateral for loans. This policy by the banks is a per emptory announcement of the necessity for stock speculators to take, in sail. Bonds were weak, but in less degree than stocks. Total sales, par value, J3.995,ft'i0.

There Are Indications That the'Sea _ board May Use It to Get to Chicago. Kansas City, and the South-west. . NEW YORK, October 6.— (Special.)— The Wall-Street Journal says this eve ning: .» , "A good deal of speculation is heard in the Streetas to the position .that the Seaboard Air-Line will occupy Iwlth re spect to ' the merged roads under con trol of the Atlantic-Coast Line. Presi dent Williams's pronunclamento as to the result in case the amicable relation ship between the Louisville and Nash ville and the Seaboard Were severed, leaves .no room for doubt on the one hand.. 'It is Intimated that the interests in control of the Seaboard Air-Line are both able and willing to enter the south ern fi"elds against any. competitor, and that any discrimination against the Sea board on the part of the two lines of the South would compel the Seaboard to ac quire its own feeders westward. "On the r other hand.- there may be difficulty in keeping " the Seaboard Alr ,.Line satisfied, even though the Atlantic- Coast Line should be content not to monopolize the traffic of the other roads. This connection between th\i .Atlantic- Coast Line,' Southern, and Central; of Georgia/is definite 'and* tangible. The relationship - between the Seaboard Air- Line and the other roads is a matter of convenience only. The Seaboard holds a" share of. the traffic of the roads be cause . ': it: has given them .return traffic* It may be taken as certain that the At; laritic-Coast ; Line will strain a point to keep the N Seaboard , satisfied, but it may be ciuestiorred.. how long it is going to divide the traffic of its controlled roads with 'an active competitor like the Sea board.."'. 1 ' " .':''.",-;.. - : : "In the; matter of western feeders for ■ the. Coast Line, considerable promi nence is given : to the activity of the "Frisco ' In ! strengthening its position about Birmingham and : Memphis. ■ Presi dent J Yoakum has declared the Intention ,of the road to have the Thebes link com pleted within a year, making a good route via: its "own tracks from ; - Birminsr ham to Chicago. The Seaboard^also' will be;' firmly ' established. In!: Birmingham within a year, the 'Frisco having waived ;the:oDposition_of <a belt line to 'the Sea board's -.enterprise in that" city. 'In other words, the "Frisco has let the Seaboard in withou t opposition and also affords a very good route from the western ■ t«»r imlnus' of the : Seaboard to- Cbicaeo.'
