THE MONOTONOUS RECORD OF PAST MONTH I'MIKORF.V
es Costlaoei Good and Quota
tion I nlfornaly Steady A Goodly Nnmber of Buyer ta the City.
Tot very satlsfaotcry conditions that have governed the market for a month past continue unbroken. There has been no variation tn dry goo da quotations for many weks. While the price of raw cotton is slowly receding, this fact has had no effect, as yet, upon manufacturers, and finished goods are h!d at the old figure. The mills are somewhat slow in filling order, but looal dealers, whose orders were placed esrly, are well tacked up and prepared to answer all orders for prompt delivery. The outlook is regarded as favorable, crop and wrather conditions being all that could be desired. There were a itood many buyers in the city yesterday, who were taking liberal assortments, and the trade was rather lively. With the exception of the revision of sugar prices noticed yesterday there has been no variation worth noting in groceries for weeks past. The demand keeps up well. The demand for eeuntry produce is sufficient to absorb the aemewhat limited receipts, and prices are held steady all along the line. There is a good inquiry for fruits and vegetables, and the supply of all kinds is ample. The quality is of the best, and the display on Commission row is wry tempting.

NEW YORK. Oct. C To-day's stock mar
ket lay practically in a lethargy pending the action Of the United States Steel di
rectors on the common slock dividend. This action had not been decided up to the close of the market, and the repressive influence
of the suspense accordingly was not re
moved. Dealings were the smallest for many weeks, and, small as they were, a large proportion of the whole was absorbed by the United States Steel securities, which
were the only stocks in which the uncertainty over the dividend action was made the occasion for speculative price movements to any extent. This is largely due to the fact that the financial world has
been in great doubt over what the effect would be of the dividend action.
Whether the passing or reduction of the
dividend could result in any further fall in
the price of the company"s securities has been much questioned. The conservatism
of a surplus, it is now believed, would have
hrl i the market price of the securities bet
ter than the distribution of dividends on the common stock, which has proved utterly unavailing to hold the market. The Fharp advance in the preferred stock this
afternoon of more than two points, while
the common stock was but slightly affected, was due to the party that was in doubt over the declaration of the dividend and it
was believed that the additional security
for the preferred by the retention of the
surplus In the treasury would result in
higher prices.
Outside of the steel stocks the market
was exceedingly narrow and the movements insignificant. Only a handful of stocks got as much as a point away from
last night, and extreme movements were not maintained in any place. The early
movement was downward and London assisted in this tendency to some extent, on account of the unsettled opinion in that
market from the Cabinet changes, some of the selling was believed to be for Western accounts and may have been associated with reports of deterioration in the
wheat fields in one or two of the Western wheat States, which also caused a firm tone in the wheat market. The government's weekly report on corn was consid
ered highly satisfactory, but the report on
cotton was felt to leave a good deal to be
desired. There was no pressure of liquida
tion at any point and the market reoovered
in sympathy with the late upward movement in United States Steel preferred. The full recovery was not held, but the closing was steady and showed very slight net changes as a rule. The time money market seems to be growing softev -nd apprehension of any real stringency has been pretty well dissipated. The lar jiovement of gold toward London and tlM cessation of the Berlin demands for gold seem to assure the prospects for that center. The lateness of the crops does not seem fully to account for the long postponement of the Western demand for currency and the belief Is gaining force that the deposit of government funds with Western banks has supplied a sufficient proportion oi the usual demand to relax the pressure upon New York decidedly. The market for bonds was very dull and about steady. Total sales, par value, $2.643.000. United 8tates threes declined and the old four 4 per cent on the last call.

The main bull factors of the session were the prospects of more unfavorable weather, better cash business and reports from Illinois of damage bv cold. After selling between 44U'u4,V-,'i4tV December closed 4 ''V' higher at 444ti44V. Local receipts were 545 cars, with 52 of contract grade. Trading in oats was of a moderate volume, local traders buying early and causing -mall advance which was lost later when wheat declined. Weather was favorable for the movement. Closing prices were steady. December being up 4c at 357c after ranging between 35VU3o4c. Local receipts were 216 cars. There was little trading in provisions, and the market lacked features. Prices were fairly steady early due to buying of October lard which was credited to packers, but as the session advanced, prices eased off on general dullness and on the lower hog market. The close showed slight declines, January pork being off Mc at $12.35. January lard being down 24c at I6.S24) and ribs vers -ilso off 24y at $6.55. Estimated receipts for to-morrow: Wheat. S5 cars; corn, 256; oats, 135; hogs, 22,000 head.

Leeal Grain Market. The local grain market took au upward turn yesterday in wheat and oats, while trorn was again reported weaker. The receipts continue very light, the inspections yeeterday totaling only 21 cars of all kiuds 16 of which were corn. The lightness g4j UN receipts of wheat can only be accounted for upon the suppnsitioQ jat farmers are holding back their aurplus for higher prk:.-s. There is nearly 6c difference between the Indianapolis and Chicago pru Ml on wheat, and nearly 2c on corn. The comparatively high i rices offered here should call out liberal offerings, but still the market languishes.

Stock Market Waiting on Action of Steel Directors. I Meyer & Klser's Telegram. NEW YORK. Oct. 6. Professional traders
have their inning in the stock market with unvarying regularity and to-day it was peculiarly their own affair. The result was a perfunctory market, dull and dragging with little feature and no particular in
terest. It seemed to be a waiting market waiting for the dividends on the common stock of the I'nited States Steel Corporation. The directors of the corporation went into session at the close of business and the final announcement will not be made for bobs time, possibly lato this evening. It is useless to suggest that the question will be determined at this particular bond meeting. That it is not the policy of the corporation. It has been determined some time since and it will be given legal form and effect only at to-day s meeting. Th6 morning papers will contain a full analysis of tlo statement submitted by the corporation. Traders seem to think that the future course of the market depended on the action of the Steel directors. Market Very I nlutereatina;. A. R. Thompson & Co.'s Telegram. NEW YORK. Oct. 6. To-days market was a very uninteresting affair, fluctuations being narrow, except in the Steel issues, tnd of little significance. The market haB been waiting all day on the action of the Steel directors, and opinion is about equally divided as to the movement of prices on the change of the dividend of Steel common. London trading in our market to-day was unimportant, foreigners being credited with selling about 5.000 shares on balance. Trading sentiment this evening was about equally divided, but it is conceded on all sidei that, while stocks are only In moderate supply aud the market bulls hard, as on material advances, offerings become more plentiful, and it seems impossible to attract any public following at the present time. The election of James Stillman as a director of the Alton is not considered to possess any significance. We still adhere to the opinion that the market Is a sale on all good ralliea. ACTIVITY IN WHEAT PIT
Wheat Sentiment Balllsh. IPorterfleld A Co.'s Telegram. CHICAGO, Oct. 6. There was considerable strength in wheat early and the St. Louis market was again the leader. Early sentiment was bullish, but when world"s visible showed nearly thirteen million bushels increase against eight and one-half million last year the advance was lost. Later the market again strengthened on good export demand. Final prices were a little better than Monday's close. The early corn sentiment was bullish and while the bulge did not all hold the market did not show weakness and we note considerable Increase in buying. Receipts are nc. increasing to any extent. Oats were influenced by other grains. Receipts were about as expected. Cash demand slow. The next move will be upward.

CHICAGO, Oct. 6. Fears of shortage of supplies of winter wheat were brought into prominence again to-day by the issuance of the crop reports of Missouri and Ohio which nhowed considerable decrease from the yield of last year, nnd as a result of these apprehensions the market ruled firmer, December closing 40c higher. December corn was up str4.e, oats were 4c higher but provisions were easier. January products closing from 2ie to 10c lower. A better undertone prevailed in the wheat pit and at times the market was quite strong, with- trading of a more active character than of late.

December being up V to cnt nC to 764c Scalpers were liberal buyers of December, but the May tie livery was quite generally neglected. There was wry little of the nearby option for sale and M
the SMMMM advanced prices gradually went i higher until 77'Ac was reached. Bullish crop reports from Missouri and Ohio with i strength in outside markets were enrlj' !
bull factors. When Hradstreet's figures wen- issued showing an increase in the world s visible supply of over twelve million bu considerable selling developed and the market suffered a decline. December slumping off to Sc. During the last hour, however, prices again rallied on a good cash demand from mills for No. 2 ret! and on reports of a big export business done via the

. Cattle- Receipts, 860; shipments. I). The
supply of attle to-day was comiaratlvely small.
but It im necessary to reduce the receipt in order to ve the market a chance to rally from
the demoHed condition prevailing last wee.
and ther3fore the supply to-day was not surprising ".'here wj- 'orro diapi .Int m nt m ac-
eount of ihe quality, there being very little or
no Improvement over the average recently. On that account salesmen have not been In a position to dictate tsrms. as they probably would
have beer with a better class of cattle to sell.
They have; been successful in getting a little bet
ter terms' for the best kinds in their class, and especially? for 'he handy-weight steers, which
are now lulling around Mb higher than at the close of list week. The good cows and heifers are alto ncllned to be stronger, but plain and
ordinary 'lutcher cattle are sallin to verr little or no betfer advantage than they did. and It Is as difficult to transfer the common to fajr kinds
as it has; been recently. There was rather an

Aery

fair requtje-t for good etockrs and feeders, and

Hogs-Receipt 7.000; shipments. MM. With
the increase in the receipt of hogs a correspond -
ing reduction is being made in values. The supply ordinarily would not have been considered
t xcesKive. bu.. the demand was a ft k ted to some extent by the conditions existing in the trad
elsewhere, ard It was evident early in the dy that buyers would have no trouble In getting
enough hogs to supply their orders. At the statt
there aas fair competition from U source, but bidding was unevenly lower. A few opening sales were made at a decline of 3c to 10c compared with yesterday, but very few load could
b placed at such terms. Report from other placet were discouraging, and naturally had
their enect lere. Subsequently all transaction
were considered 10c to l.V lower, and a good
part of th sjpiily changed hands on that
but the prim Ipal local packer wanted only 1.
noes, and thl left more than shippers could
therefore, after th more important order had
been executed, the trading was at a standstill and buyer were careful in making any kind of an offer. In fact, it appealed that there waa
really no deiravd toward the rioe of the marker, and the bidding, of course, was lower than it
otherwise would have l .e;; s, me nf the lowest
prices offered were considered 2V- lower than
yesterday, ard with salesmen unwilling to a cept such terms quit a number of hogs remained
unsold. For extrsmea the mria was reported
5c to 20c lower, and moat dealers declared that
the average was easy Mc to lac lower than year
