THE MARKET LETHARGIC Suspense Over Action of U. S. Steel Directors. DEALINGS VERY LIMITED - / Small as They Were, a Largo ^Propor? tion of Them Were in Steel Securi? ties?The Suspense Was Not Lifted During Session, NBW YOHK, Oct. ?.?To-day'e Btock market lay practically In a lethargy pendln? tue animi oi the United States fcjteel directors on the common Btot?k dividend. This action had not been de? cided up to the close of tlie market, and the repressive Influence of the suspenso accordingly was not removed. lJeudngs were the smallest for many weeks, und, small its they were, u la ige pioportlon of the whole wag absorbed bv the (inked States Steel securities', wnkh were the only stocks In wliich the uncertainty over the dividend action was made tno occasion for speculative prlco movements to any extent. This is largely due to the fact that the financial world has been In great doubt over what the ef? fect would be of the dividend action. The conservation of a surplus, it Is now be? lieved, would have held thd market price of the securities better than the dis? tribution of dividends on the common stock, which has proved utterly 'unavail? ing to hold the maiket. The sharp ad vunco lu the preferred stock this aiter noon of more than 2 points while the common stock was but Slightly affected, was due to tiic party that was in doubt over tho declaration of tho dividend, and which believed that tho additional security for the preferred by the reten? tion of the surplus In the treasury would result In higher prices. Outside of (he Steel stocks, the market was exceeding? ly narrow and the movements ins.g nlficant. Some of tho selling was report? ed to be for AVestern account, and may have been associated with the reports of deterioration In the wheat yield in ono or two of the Western Stalen, which also caused ?? firm tone In the wheat mar? ket. The government's weekly report on corn was Considered highly satisfac? tory, but the report on cotton was felt to leave a good deal to be desired! There was no pressure of liquidation at any point and the market recovered, In sym? pathy with the late upward movement in United States Steel, preferred. T-tic full recovery was not held, but the closing was sleudy and showed very sllgnt liet changes as a rule. The time money mar? ket seems to be growing softer, and ap? prehension of any real stringency has been pretty well dissipated. To-day's total stock sales were 310,900 ?hares. The market for bonds was very dull and about steady. Total gales, par value, ?2, ?3,000. United States 3'a declined 1-4 and the old 4's 1-2 per cent, on the last call.

Wall Street Gossip. IPr' (Special to Tbo Times-Dlspatcb.) NEW YORK, Oct. 0.?The opening on the -stock market wni ratber benvjr with ?owe ri-kilxlDC ?ale? In placee. The feeling wat. un? certain, as a good deal was expected to turn on tbo Steel corninoli dividend, and trader? were mure bearlab tban t.bcy bad been in tbe end of lint week. Tho lower I?ndon price? were m ken ae an Indication tlmt tliero had been some New York Belling: abroad. The Western houses reported Felling ordera In Urie, Heading, St. Paul, Atcblson and some other ?Kicks, but were inclined to think Ihat this represented ibe putting out of short linee, as they were fair borrowers of slocks tor cus? tomers. Sotno selling for Philadelphia and Baltimore wa? reported. Tbu Virginia-Carolina Chemical stock ?old In the recent paat has come from the latter Quarter. The weakness In Brooklyn Rapid Transit early probably had a political origin. Seme street authorities ascribed it directly to tbe prospects of the municipal election, hut there wa? a con? siderable section who thought that the price 'was being put down to give certain politician? a chance to get ?omo cheap stock. Tbe rather heavy tone in Standard Oil slocks, ?nd amongst them Amalgamated Copper, was closely wutcbed, and had a curious iudlrect in? fluence uikju the forecasts of the United .Sutes Steel dividend. It was known that the strong? est Standard Oil Influence was In the direction of a r?duction at least, and tbe knowledge uf possibility of such a reduction might coucolT ubly be reflected In Standard Oil stocks. FIRST HOUR WITHOUT FEATURE: Tbe market developed scarcely ?ny featuro of Interest in tbe tlrat bcur, and there was not a fluctuation of more than >/t per cent, any? where. Tbe floor traders were trying to scalp proilts without very much ?ucce?s, and tho larger spec? la tors were of one mind on one pnlni at least, ami that was tbat It was better to wait for tbe Steel dividend. Tliero won some Inqu'/y for Sugar by lower Wall Street bouses. Philadelphia house? had the selling orders In Heading and talked bearish on the eoul situation. One or them said that It would take very cold weather and a lot of It before any impression was made upon the stock of coal accumulated. MORGAN BROKERS ?OUGHT STEEL: The Morgan broker? limi the buying orders in United States Steel preferred, and tbla gave a ftrmer tone to the common? The full common dividend, the cutting of it In half, or the pnoa. Ing of It altogether, were regarded as hull or bear argumenta, according to tbe taste or fancy of the market authorities talking, and tbe state of hi? book. In these circumstance? It I? dim cult to ?eo why the action of the dlroctor' should Shed any morn light on the general mar? ket, as It is taken for granted tbat the earnings of the property are well known. ???????G?G NAH HOW: '??? market become extremely narrow and dull at mid-day with no general tendency de? veloped, There seemud to he some stock for ?ale around the room, hut not much disposition , to picas It. The Western element was obviously bearish, hut found the market too narrow tu du much business, The specialist took the oarly sales of Brook, lyn Rapid Transit ai,il rallied the stock, but there eeeuied to be a little more coming out on ' the Improvement, und 11 sagged ?gain. Tbe weakness in Metropolitan was probably as much due to the reduction of tho short In. terjst a? to any other emine. Traders think It acts badly, und say that real long stork can only ho sold et a sacrifi?e.

BETTER STRENGTH IN AFTERNOON: The market developed better strength In the early afternoon than it had shown since Friday, ond advanced under tho lead of tbe United States Steel Issues. The character of the buying, ispeclallj lu Steel preferred, started the move? ment to cover shorts elsewhere. The strength In Steel preferred was the more dolicostile as the bonds sdvanced. at the same time thus indicating tbat tc buying wa? not of i ? Ifbltrage character. It wa? considered well | infoimed, and although It did not shed muci light upon the dividend question, it at losst gave ?-on??.? guide on the attiutde of tbe Morgan in terest.

The strength In tho Steel stocks made Its iffc-t felt throufcout the '.1st to a g':ster o- lesa extent, and the close was firm, rather under ?he best of the day.

C October G.?The Weather Bureau's weekly summary of crop conditions Is as follows: In the central and eastern districts of the cotton bolt, there was littlo or no rain during the week., and cotton pick? ing progressed rapidly under very favor aule conditions. In ' Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas, however, picking was re? tarded by heavy rains, which caused con? siderable damage to open Cotton, espe? cially In Texas, where the opening of thu young bolls has been checked by renewed growth of plant. Reports Indicato that about one-half of the prospective yield has been gathered in tho central and eastern portions of the belt, tho propor? tion gathered being considerably greater In Texas, where probably Go to 70 per cent, of the crop has been secured, whllu not more than 10 per cent, has yet been picked in Oklahoma, Indian Territory and Arkansas. On tho whole, it appears that slightly more than onophalf of the crop Is now gathered. Tho principal tobacco States have had very favorable curing w tat h er; and the portion of the crop - remaining unhai . vested in Kentucky at the eluso of the previous week has ; been housed.
