Chicago, Sept. 22. — There was a weak aid heavy feeling in nearly all the speci ative lines on change to-day, and the ad ;ance in prices of yesterday were lost. In ivheat, opening was steady, influenced by the firmer tone of foreign markets and a de crease of 73,000 bushel* on ocean passage; but the speculative offerings became quite large later on, and. under free offerings chiefly on behalf of local operators, the market became weak and prices declined lc, ruled steadier and closed %c under yes terday.

Government bonds j were dull and heavy. State bonds were dull I and steady. Stocks were unusually active, excited and at times feverish. It was the most active day, so far, for the year, and the ; market gives every indication that the out- j side public have come largely into the specu lations and both the buying and the selling comes from every direction. The coal stocks were the great features to-day, and Reacting' ! resumed the first place. The sales of that J stock at once was equal to an average day's • business three weeks ago. The stock was fa- ' vorably affected by the announcement that ] the Pennsylvania was now in accord with the i management, and London houses, which have been selling for the past day or two, became heavy buyers. It advanced 2 percent, be yond the highest point obtained previous to to-day, only a small portion of which was lost toward the close. The other coal stocks were remarkably active and strong:, all reaching 1 the Lest prices of the season. Lackawanna was effected by talk of an increased dividend, but nothing- very definite could be learned in regari to it. There was considerable London buying of Lake Shore and Texas Pacific this mo; niiitr. The Grangers were again sluggish, and St. Paul was held down by stories of an increased issue of bonds, which met with prompt denials. The failure of the North western railroad managers to agree upon a milling in transit question also had considera ble effect upon these markets. The opening was firm and strong, at advances ranging from %<@>\ 6 c, bat Pacific Mail was down %g and St. Paul Ho. Trading was active in the early dealing*, but the market was feverish and irregular, with the general drift toward lower prices. Toward 11 o'clock, however, the buying of Reading began, the sales for the next hour amounting to over 60.000 shares. Late in the afternoon heavy realizations carried prices down close to opening figures. The market closed barely firm. The day's business loots up 680.61$ shares. The trading in Reading reached 176,200 shares. Lack a wanna came nearest to It with 61,610, j and Erie came next with 54.-10, Final prices are about equally divided between | gain* and losses, although the latter are in j no case lor more than fractional amounts. i Reading is up 2%, Hocking Valley 0%. East Tennessee pfd 1%. and the others fractions. Railroad bonds were more active; sales. $1,922,500. of that amount the Texa3 Pacific Rios Trust receipts furnished $226,000. There was a well distributed business in the rest of the list, but the trading was devoid of special features. Prices were firm and final figures generally show small advances.

A steady demand, with little change In prices and few features of special import ance, characterize the market. The volume of trade is good, but business is done, both I by manufacturers and jobbers, on narrow j margins. As orders are in most cases for ! present requirements, and with the existing: ! prosperous condition of business throughout i the country, a continuance of a satisfactory trade is anticipated during: the fall. In dry good* trade is again very active, the tempo rary lull or last week being succeeded by great activity, and the market ia full of cus tomers. Purchases as a rule are very liberal In regard to all Kinds of seasonable fabrics. The order demand is also very large, and toe sales aggregated very nearly as large as the | fair week. All kinds of goods are in good j demand. Prices continue very firm, and the ! scarcity of the leading makes of cotton goods ; shows no sign of their being- more plenty. ; Supply and demand are regulating the value j of these goods, so that the present flrmuess of the market must continue until the supply equals the demand. Woollen goods continue to advance. The recent sales la London have ! caused further udvnnces in the raw material ;of from 10 to 12^c, and manufactured goods are advancing .in sympathy with it. The advanced prices seem in no way to check the demand. Customers : want the goods and are willing to pay for them. Blankets are in very large | demuud, and as they have advanced less than any other kind of woolen goods, higher prices | are looked for. The drug market is active, and collections are daily improving. The tone of the market is strong, with a genera expectation of the best and largest general business ever known here. Ti>is fall quinine has apparently reached its lowest point. Everything now points to an advance. Opium and morphine also show signs of advancing. I Turpentine has advanced lc per gallon, and alcohol has advanced 2c per gallon. Chloro form is lower. In consequence of sharp com petition window glass and some glassware are j a little lower. Gensing is dull and un changed, and the market seems thoroughly disorganized. Senega 13 very dull and lower. Timothy and clover seed are lower. The Na tional Wholesale Druggists' association holds its twelfth annual convention at the twin cities of the Falls of St. Anthony on Sept. the 27th and 30th inclusive. Thursday is the ] ! special day for St. Paul, with a banquet at the ; I Ryan. It is expectad that some four nun- | j dred of the leading business men of the coun- ! I try will be here. Groceries are very active I and all articles are steady, with good collec i tions. The hardware trade is very active, I with prices very firm and collections very i much improved.
