Rock Island was the feature of speculalion on the New York Stock Exchange yesterday. There has been a luestioii as to the action of the directors on the dividend. of the current quarter, which was regarded txs settled yesterday n favor of the usual 1 rr cent. As It proved there was no basia distant for this belief, but the hhort Interest which had Fold on the bisl3 of a re'duced rate of dividend hashed to cover. t Th3 room traders also bought, and the combined purchases caused an advance of to 65. When the stock had reached this point there were rumors that the cirectots' meeting would ga ov?r until Saturday, and the price sagged off a fraction, soon after noon the announcement that a dividend of Wq per rent, ha 1 been declared reached the exchange, and a final determined assault was made on the shares. The buyers of the morning threv their stock on the market, and bear put out fresh lines of shorts. A steady, and at times harp, decline r?suted, which continued up to the close, the last hln the lowest price of the day, 5 per cent, from the highest figure of the morning ard bcicw Thursday's closing sale. The scale of the dlvl-iend rate should not, ha re been regarded as unexpected, President Cable Living, only a short while ago mad a statement In which he set forth the unf ivoraLl-. buriness prospects of the companv, and, while making no reference to t.e dlvlJenl, clearly foreshadowed the ictln. wn:c!i is in full accord with the uniform jolky of the itock Island company, not tD declare dividends that are not earned. Tlnv? jouia ago the rate of dividend was reduced to J,2 per cent, for two ru e quarter., witnout any break In tnt atock wnich immediately followed the rtru t eduction, an I theri was a steady re toverv th .-CA:i'-r. The other grangers In the market followed the course of the Itock Island as a sympathetic movement. Sugar, a? usual, was most active In the dealings!, but only participated moderately in the speculative movement, making a decline of 1 per cent, on the day's transactions, the preferred recording u decline. Chicago Gas fluctuated within a range of V per cent., declining In the tarly dealings, selling up VA and reacting recording a net loss of i per cent. There was a firm undertone to the trading In this stock and it was well supported during the break in the general list. The market at large was firm at the opening, but became depressed !n sympathy with the break in the grangers and closed heavy at or near the lowest of the day. Some of the specialties moved Independently of the active list and show gains on the day including Toledo & fDhlrh i 'ontra 1 Arlama Pvnraai 11. T W Shore. Hi. and Pittsburg. C, C. & St. LouU preferred and Louisville & New Albany preferred. 1 per cent. The bond market was not affected by the depression existing in the share list, but was firn throughout the day.

This is due to the State fair and the Fdl of Pompeii crowds, to which the railroads gave low rates. Most of the wholesale houses- kept In their traveling men to look after business at home. In prices there have, been few changes the la.t week. Fruits and vegetables are In good request. The supply, however, is fully up with the demand, consequently easy prices have ruled. On Irish potatoes enly are the ' ommiiision houses able to talk high prices. Tomatoes, cabbage, onions, celery are all lelllnff low. Green beans are about off the market. Some really choice apple are now oJTcred at rer barrel. Peaches are not as good quality as earlier In the month. Pears ar.1 melons are tlll in large pupoly.

Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade will say tomorrow: Plenty cf material for encouragement and also for discouragement can be found by those who seeK tnat and nothing else. But business men who want to see the situation exactly as it is find accounts so far conflicting that It Is difficult to "strike a balance. In the aggregate, business id about a tenth lamer than last year, but still falls about 25 per cent, below a full volume for the seasqn. The Iron business, after its great increase of output last month, shows a disappointing weakness at all Eastern and central markets, with consumption not large enough to keep fairly employed the mills in operation. Bessemer pig is lower, at $11.50, at Pittsburg, and the business in most manufactured products there and at Philadelphia Is. generally done at some con cessions, though in structural work and in sheets the demand Is excellent. Wire rods and nails and barbed wire are weaker, ar.d steel billets and bars a shade lower. Ir. boots and shoes the demand continues large, with many sales from stocks and orders for quick delivery, and other indications that replenishment of stocks is not yet completed. In textile fabrics there has been a distinct decrease in trade, as initial stocks for the next season have been ordered and dealers are now wanting for the retail trade to give encouragement for further purchases. The strike at Fall River and New Bedford has not ceased, and about a dozen additional cotton mills have gone Into operation elsewhere, several with reduced wages., but .the orders for the present are narrow and much smaller, than usual, although recent advances in prices are maintained. The demand for woolen dress goods is better, and will occupy some mills until December. London prices of wool, beginning about 5 per cent, higher thnn at the last sale, were not quite '?p o previous market auotatlons, and sales of wool at the three Eastern markets lave been largrer than of late, 7.041.550 pounds, against 4,216,225 last year, and 3.203,100 in 1832. In three weeks the sales bave been 14.296.750. against 9.863.225 last year, and 24.661.900 in 1892. Breadstuffs are weaker, possibly because the government official report went so far in predicting short crops as to cause a reaction In opinion. While lower estimates "f corn are commonly accepted, the price ell 314c, and men are reasoning that If the 'fhcial estimate of wheat has been found 00.000.000 bushels out of the way. the corn estimate may err four or live hundred Tiillion bushels. While corn declined, neither pork nor lard yielded in price here, though lower at Chicago. Wheat receipts -ere 5.481.418 bushels, against 5.982.026 last year, and Atlantic exports only 902.S8O. against 1.898,384 last year, and prices fell 1 rop.t. Failures In two weeks of September show labilities of only $2,857:764. of which $9G9.716 were of manufacturing and $1,7W,048 of trading concerns. Failures during the week have been 212 in the United States, against -21 last year, and in Canada 48, against 40 'ast year. Itrnrintreet'it Review of Trmle. NEW YORK. Sept. 21.-Bradstreets tomorrow will say: The condition of general 'rad this week is an improvement over one week ago, In that favorable features -eported then have been . maintained. The surprisingly good reports of business South and, with some exceptions. West, are Indira ted by our special advices from Baltimore, Nashville. Chicago, St. Louis, Portland. Ore., and San Francisco. Baltimore jobbers In all leading lines report the volume' of merchar.dis? distributed in excess Jf expectations, especially dry goods In Scuth Carolina, Georgia and Alabama, except !n fruit and coal regions. Other Southern products being In good supply, orders continue liberal and mercantile collections easy. Nashville, while reporting no Improvement over favorable features n atie last week, notes their continuance, ind that collections are prompt. One sale Is reported of 10,000 tons of Southern pig Iron this week. Activity reported in almost all lines at Chicago a week ago Is ccntinued. merchants beins: satisriel with the volume. Far Western buyers who used to buy in Eastern markets are purchasing stocks st Chicago. Greatest activity Is shown In dry goods, clothing, millinery and shoes. Wool. too. Is active, one lot) of Ttio.roo pounds having been sold to a Rhode Island manufacturer. St. Louis manufacturers and jobbers of clothing and hats report business heavier than in their preceding experience in like periods. Sales of millinery and dry goods are large, as well as those of lumber. The season's shipments of wheat from Portland. Ore., and San Francisco have he;rtin. one vessel having sailed this week from the city first named and six from the Golden Gate. Sales In the larger cities on the Pacific coast have increased In all lines. Receipts of Alasita salmon have been very heavy, and exports promise to be correspondingly large. Heavier exports of whce.t from New York city. San Francisco r.nd Montreal havefurther increased the weekly total of wheat (and flour as wheat) exported from both coasts of the I'nlted States and Canada within six days, as exclusively renorled to Bradstreet'i5, such total beinsr 3.537.0OO bushels. Last week the like aggregate was 2.789,000 bushels. A year aso it was 4.737.UOO Jjushels, in IS'JI It was 3,711.000 busnels. the year before that 4.71l.0 bushels, but in the third week of September, 1S9Q. it was only t.l 35.000 bushels. Price movement this week is downward, cotton having sold to within 2 points of the lowest price on record, and wheat having rone off sufficiently to make another "lowest record" for that cereal. Other decreases are shown in hogs and cattle at Western markets based on heavy receipts of Bessemer pig iron, steel billets. Indian corn. oats, naval stores and refined sugar. In addition, anthracite and bituminous coal prices have been weak; those for lumber likewise, at some Eastern markets, and quotations for pig Iron generally. Steady quotations during the week are announced for pork and lard at Kastern markets, nnd advances have actually taken place in leather, coffee and to a relatively small decree In wool, notwithstanding the attendance of many American buyers at I.ondon wool sales. Gsip.s in volume of business at leading Eastern cities in the preceding fortnight are generally maintained. Neither Buffalo nor Pittsburg announce gains or reaction, except in prices for metals. Philadelphia tertHe manufacturers are onlv fairly busy, rrUllvely active trade in other lines being in dry goods and notions.

A NEW LOW RECORD

THIS TI3IE IT IS IX DECEMBER WHEAT THAT SOLD AT 54 .VSC. The Le-idinjc Cereal Grew Stronger Later in the Day and Closed at 1-So Advance Pork Lower. CHICAGO, Sept. 21. Wheat was weak the greater part of to-day's session, but near the end reports of heavy buying for export braced up the market and December finished with He gain. May corn closed c lower, May oats 4c lower. and provisions with but little change. Wheat started with a slight recovery from yesterday's closing prices, but after running for an hour In a groove between the opening figures and Uc lower, it began to drop another eighth or two, or sufficient to make a fresh record. December, which opened at 55Hc and sold sparingly at 554 554c, had declined before 11 o'clock to 54c May was a shade more difficult to find buyers for thtn December, and touched 59c a few moments m advance of the latter month, reaching the same comparative loss. The opening temporary firmness was caused by the number of cars Inspected In store, amounting to only 123, compared with two hundred as estimated, yesterday. That, however, lost its effect when, on inquiry among the receiving houses, it was discovered that there still existed the same dlffl.culty In getting cars of grain unloaded as has been complained of for a month back. Primary market receipts were in the aggregate about 85,000 bu, which showed some falling off compared with those of the day before. Foreign markets were weak. The second weak spell was the result of the more decided heaviness of corn at the time referred to. Business had been very light until the pressure to sell December at 54"c became urgent, and that latter pressure caused trading to become active and kept it so during the following fifteen minutes, while it was being beaten down to 54c. Reports of liberal buying for export caused a rally at the finish, and . December closed at 55VkC. Corn ruled heavy and dropped c of its yesterday's t value in the first two hours of to-day's business. There was some resistance to the decline underrurilng the estimates by 130 cars, but as that was ascribed to the crowded condition of the railroad yards, due to the scarcity of storage. It s rved only to cause a loss to those who h.vl ascribed a little bull force to it. The receipts as reported in bushels were 211,560, In comparison with 544,196 bu received on the corresponding day of last year. Tne offerings of No. i new corn, to arrive In November and December, are increasing. Philadelphia advises liberal offerings of new corn from Maryland and Delaware to arrive in November, at prices relatively lower than the above quotations.' '; Those several items of news were not reassuring, and created the heavy feeling which resulted in the decline already referred to. May sold at 524c and 52V2c simultaneously at the opening, and from that down to 51?c before any substantial recovery took place. Some buying at the close caused a rally and May finished at 52V,c. Oats continued to decline, Influenced principally by a like action In the ccrn market. Business was of fair volume, although trades were all rather small. The disposition to sell remained very ursrent. Elevator concerns were most promineitv'ln offering stuff. Buying ordrs were fairly plentiful; confined almost entirely, however, to 5,ouj bu and 10,000 bu lots, and scattered among local parties and scalpers. May started at 34"kc. sold to 35c and then declined to 34, closing at 344c. The provision market was firm, but very dull. There was no marked pressure to sell or desire to buy. Tne Anglo-American Packing Company and Hateiy Brothers were the sustaining buyers, but they did a good deal more bidding than buying. Compared with yesterday's closing prices, there 4s an advance of .02. fee in lard and 2'jC In pork, and ribs are as they closed yesterday. Freight rates are 4c better, at l'ic Rates on corn steady at IV4C. Provision rates, all rail, to New York, advanced to 30c to-day.

Wi 4.25 2.503:2.25 Elsewhere. CHICAGO. Sept. 2t.-Llght receipts and continued fair activity In the demand kept the cattle market firm. Those who held orders for good natives were thered to fill them, for there were barely 2.00J native cattle cf all grades, and an unusuaii small percentage of that number classed as "good." In the absence of a sufficiency of desirable sorts buyers turned their attention to lower grades, with the result that that branch of the market developed increased firmness. There was nothing in the shape cf a I alleck that could not be sold at Thursday" s prices, and stock that had any attractions sold stronger. Natives were quoted at $1.25tf6.50. with most of the sales at $1.85ft2.75 for cows, heifers and bulls and at $4.254?6 for steers. The ran e of quotations for Westerns was $l.oO?i4.N. with sales principally at J175ft3.50. There were about 2,000 head. Texas also contributed 2.000, and they were salable, at $l.-or 3.25. The cajf market .was Arm 'at J2.5Ci? "The hog market was again very dull ar.d indescribably weak. All grades were lower, the decline varying from 10c to 20e and averaging quite 15c. There were few trade above $6, and the largest part of the 25.CO0 hogs on sale (10,000 of which were stale) sold below $5.85. Packers insisted upon buying good lots around $5.50, and Eastern buyers bid $5.75ft5.S5 for such sorts as brought $6.236.35 yesterday morning. Sheep prices were firm' and steady. Only about 6.000 head arrived, and tbe total for the last five days is only slightly in excess of 54,000, as against nearly 70.000 for the previous week and 66.000 a year ago. The market has been strong for some days past and is now a little higher than at the clo.e of Jast week, both for sheep and lambs. The range of quotations for poor to choice sheep is $lft3.25. with extra quality quoted as high as $3.50. Lambs have advanced to $2ffI4.30 and ore stroncr there.
