LITTLE ACTIVITY
IIS*WAUL STREET
XEYV 'YORK.' 'Sept. 23— Stock
tra.din{? resolved itself again today
into a series of tests of the tone;
of the market by the professional,
element. That is what is hap
pening from day to day. Profound
indifference is maintained by the
general public and the capital in
< terests more immediately con
i cerned with the affairs of corpora
t tions. Only 'fractional price
s changes again proved to be the
' outcome at the end of the day.
I The first movement of the mar-
Jp kot toward a lower level was pre
]• cipitate, and was the response to
i| the remarks by Commissioner
!i L«ne yesterday at the interstate
III I commerce commission hearing into
1; rp.ilroad rates at Chicago. His
|i assertion that "we must work out
i 1i 1 this problem on other lines than
'', by the proposed method of raising
I the tariffs."' was seized on as defl
i| nitely outlining the decision of the
, commission on the petitions now
/ before it for specific advances in
I 1 rates.
', The quick check to the down
!' ward movement showed that there
1 [ was no widespread agreement
1 with this view.
The particular weakness in
Amalgamated copper was due to
the reports that Calumet and Hecla
had lowered its asking price for
lake copper by to 12 % c. The
nervous tone of. the speculation
over the copper situation perme
ates the whole speculative fabric,
and any siprns of a break in the
copper market are feared for the
widespread consequences which*
might ensue.
Many old rumors were revived
in connection with the speculative
outburst in Reading, including
capital, readjustment, distribution
and "concealed assets" and so on.
Bonds were steady. Total sales
(par value), $3,286,000.
United States bonds were un
changed in the bid price on call.
NEW YORK. Sept. 23.— E. F.
'Hutton & Co.'s wire says: "To
day's security market continued
to be subject to much profession-,
alism. with a few specialty move
ments during: the session. Read
ing was the feature, making a
fair g-ain in the day's operations,
and we might say that much of
the buying 1 was good. Rumor has
it of a large coming distribution
of cash on this stock.
"The New York traction shares
scored the greatest gain for the
day. and the buying here was the
result of the entrance of City bank
and J. P. Morgan interests in the
future of these properties.
"There was virtually nothing
new in the Wall street situation
of material interest Jn changing
the course of sentiment, which is
decldedlv mixed as to the future
trend of prices."

BOSTON. Sept. 23.— 1 VF. Hutton'» wire says:
The msrket opened fractionally lower, but not
in comparison with the New York list. Shoe '
common wa« again today's feature, selling
alK»ve 60% on continued good buying. Copper
shares are still awaiting a leader, and we would
not be surprised to 6ee them start any moment
now. We look for these issues to be led by
Lake Superior shares. Activity in the coppers
still is much restricted, however, and the price
changes are hardly worthy of mention, except
Tamarack, which is down two points. x
The August production of the Utah copper
comtvam- was 7,440,035 pounds, a reduction of
1.200.000 from the average monthly output of
the three preceding months, or a curtailment of
14 per cent.

Weekly Review of Trade
NKW YORK. Sept. 23.— Bradstreet's tomor
row will say:
Trade and industrial reports are still irregular
and general characterization is difficult. Fair
activity in some lines and at some centers Is
indicated, but repression and conservatism are
widely in evidence and reflected in small but
frequent rather than large or confidential buying.
One really favorable underlying feature, per
haps not thoroughly appreciated at present,, is
the apparpnt absence, of large stocks of goods
in primary or secondary • hands, born apparently
of uncertainty as to future prices and . the
growth of the belief that far distant buyings is
neither advisable nor necessary. ,
Reports from leading •"industries are of re
pression In operation. Basic pig iron Is weaker
and there are reports of willingness to sell
further ahead. Some, finished lines show a
slightly larger volume of business booked, but
railway buying is still conspicuous by its com
parative absence. In -the : eastern leather trade
some sole leather tanners are operating much
below capacity and eastern shoe manufacturers
report conservatism marked in buying.
At the west some centers report shoe, fac
tories running to capacity. In textile lines cur
tailment is still In evidence. Staple lines meet
with fairly steady demand. Jobbers and manu
facturers' stocks are reported lighter than usual.
Some makes of ginghams and cottons for next
spring, for which prices have been announced,
ba** sold quite freely. In the woolen goods
trade political agitation is claimed to be holding
back future demand. .
Business failures in. the United States for the
week ending September, 22 were 190, against 210
last week, 171 In the like week of 1909. 267 in
1008. 166 In 1907 and 165 in 1906 . '

?£^ n!a m>o39 laßt ,W, WM * and 94,418 bushels in
R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade to
morrow will say: With crops aggregating large
in quantity and value, in spite of the reduced
yield of spring wheat, with politics becoming so
intense and uncertain as to make enterprise
timid, and with the railroads and shippers en
gaged in a dispute over rates, -the business. out
itok-is mixed. \u25a0 trade • reaction being very plain
in some important directions, while at the same
timp there are streaks of progress and activity
It is, as -a whole, a- waiting -situation, with
little to encourage speculative enterprise' until
conditions now. doubtful : or unsettled become
more clearly defined. , - ,= , ,
-Interest in stnel and :iron has centered chiefly
in indications of an early; general reduction, of
prices -on . finished steel -products, which have
been- freely discussed.' and :tbe effect* has been
disquieting, notwithstanding .denials from well
informed sources. ....

siderable activity, but; demand for rails is not

CHICAGO. Sept. 23.— E. F. Hutton & Co/s
wire says: "The wheat market has again been
an uninteresting but stubborn affair, with prices
covering a narrow range and the volume of bnsi
ness light in . proportion. Buyers have been a
little encouraged by the official figures of the
French crop, which make the total 93.000.000
bushels less than -last year at 263,000,000 bush
els, and indicating latpr from trade estimates
import needs of about 82.000.000 bushels. Som9
selling, encouraged by . the forecast of over
15*000.000 hiu"heV» as: world's shipments for the
week against 11.632.Q00 as the official last year.
The Bradstree^ report makes clearances of wheat
and flour as wheat, both coasts, at 1,584.000
bushels, against 2.974.000 a year ago. India,
Anstralla and Argentina' together ship over
3.500.000 bushels this week, against a total of
216.000 a year ago. Local cash sales reported to
miscellaneous mills were 74.000 bushels, includ
ing spring, hard winter and durum. Vessel
room for wheat is offered at lc to Buffalo.
Northwestern stocks promise an increase of
1.530.000 bushels this week, against 1.245.000
for the corresponding week of last year.
"The Modern Sillier reports seeding and plow
ing progressing favorably, with an increase in
acreage promised, but little wheat leaving the
farm at present. Foreign markets mixed. No
claims of export bnsiness today.
"Corn— Corn rallied today on wet weather
over the corn belt and good buying by many
small and a .few laree shorts. The advance
early was not maintained. Sales from the in
terior hare been greatly curtailed by recent de
clines and the appearance of wet weather, and
eastern inqniry wa* stimulated to some extent.
The advance of %c to %c in cash here, how
ever, has curtailed the. shipping sales. Some ex
port business- is being done almost daily In new
and old corn. "?.',,';-
"Oats were only moderately active, value?
following corn more than wheat today. Loral
shorts covered early and some were selling later.
The market lost some of the advance of • the
morning.. Cash sales reported were 187.000
bushels."
