The stqck market gave a fairly good account of itself today, but this was due perhaps more to a disposition on (he part of the more professional element to cover short commitments, since it has been' noticeable this week that this element had been aggressively on the selling side, and as a result we have a decided improvement in the market's teehjrieal position. Furthermore, there has been a gradual and steady improvement in the money market. Funds have been available dally to meet stock market requirements at a renewal rate, which seems to be stabilized for the present. Time money has been more plentiful and the rate ‘tending downward. Eight per cent could properly be called the standard rate at the present moment. Commercially, conditions today are as thev have been during the recent past, with a decided tendency toward lower commodity prices, and this acted as a restraint against large commitments. The favorable factor is the present range of quoted values of securities. Values are moderate and therefore we have a right to expect a reasonable degree of stability, even in the midst of such a wave of price cutting as has occurred this week. For th immediate future we see a likelihood of an irregular market in the , industrials and a strong and higher market for the rails.. TWENTY STOCKS’ AVERAGE. NEW YORK.

Receipts for the day totaled approximately 6,000 fresh hogs and 2.015 were carried over from the market of the day before, making approximately 8.000 hogs that were on tne market for sale. With the advance In prices and many good light, mixed and heavy hogs on the market, there was a very narrow margin on the price schedule. All good grades sold at $17.50. There were but few extremely heavy hogs on the market. Among the 1,500 that were left after the early trading were hogs that did not meet the standards of the hogs of the early trading, and all indications were that but few of these would be soW, unless there was some unusual occurance that was unforeseen. There was but little demand for pigs and prices dropped 50 cents, with a top of $10.50 and probably twenty-five or thirty bringing sl7. The bulk of the few pigs that were sold ran around $16.35. Trading in roaghs was not as heavy as usual, but the prices held fairly steady, with a top or $15.50. Bplk of sales for the forenoon tradj lng was $17.50. Klngan A Cos., aiwsys the heaviest j buyers on the market, bought aroung i 2.000 hogs. Armour took approximately ! 500. Abattoir Company took about their ’ usual quota and a few scattered sales by other local packers made the sales *to local packers about 3,30 Q sud shipper, i took about an equal number, i Trading on the cattle market was exj treibely dull, with but little trading outside speculators. What few cattle that butchers and packers took were hid 25 cents lower thaD the prices maintained on the market of the day before. Receipts for the day approximated 400, but there ate many cattle in the yards tba( have been held over and it is the opinion of some of the cattle commission men that some of the cattle In the congested markets of the West will come on this market within the next few days. Heavy receipts are looked for for the I opening days of the next week market. It is thought that one of the principal ! reasons for the flooding of the market I by local cattle feeders Is that the season I for the Western range cattle Is near at > hand and the markets wilt in all prob- | ability be flooded with that class of cat- ! tie. which will probably mean a downi ward trend in the market. With but few good calves on the j market and a strong sentiment, prices 1 on the choice grades were strong to 30 I cent# higher, with a top of sl9 and ! the bulk of the choice calves bringing *17618.80. Other grades of calves were about I steady. Receipts for the day approximated 300. There was an unusually large run of ! sheep and lambs on the market for the I close of the week, with receipts close > to 500. There were some sheep that told at ' lower prices at the opening of the : market, but the sentiment was strong ; after the first hour of trading, nnd the ; market closed steady, with sheep at ss@6 and lambs withs top of sl2 and the bulk selling close to $11.50.

Stock Market Review NEW YORK. Sept. 25.—The Sun Financial Review today said; ‘‘The first half of today’s session of the securities market reflected an irregular market iu industrial shares and a steady, firm tone in the railroad descriptions. “Before this background the oil issues stood out as strong features and were in excellent and consistent demand under the leadership of Mexican Petroleum. “Trading was on a lighter scale than yesterday and interest was no . Intense. ‘The same Influence arising from price reductions which have obtained heretofore this week, governed business today. There were no new factors to change the attitude of professional and public. “Business was carried on to-the closing in a more or less perfunctory fashion. “Further price changes were not'lmportant. Pronounced streugth in Liberty issues again featured the bond department.”

In the Cotton Markets NEW YORK, Sept. 25 —The cotton market was unsettled at the opening today, with prices 5 to 10 points lowfr. Distant positions displayed the most steadiness on * demand from Wall street and Liverpool. Nearby options ruled weak under heavy overnight selling, both from Northern and Southern sources, baaed on the extension of the price-cut-ting wave, weakness in spot cotton, bearish week end statistics and favorable weather in the belt.

GRAIN MARKET ON DECLINE Continued Good Crop Weather Principal Factor. CHICAGO. Sept. 23.—The decline in grain quotations continued today during the short session today. The volume of trading was light and fluctuations were not as violent as during’ the last few days. Continued good crop weather and lack of buying power were the maiu rea'sons for the drop. Provisions also were lower. December wheat was off 2c at the opening, $2.23%, and closed down 4%c additional. March wheat, after losing 4%e at opening, closed at the same quotaiion. September corn was off 2%c at the opening, $1.23, and lost another l%c at the close. December corn dropped %c at the opening of 97c and closed off 3%c additional. September oats after opening off %e, at 53%c, dropped %e additional at the close. December oats off %c at the opening, 67%c, showed a gain of %c at the close. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Sept. 25Wheat —There Is a decided broadening of Interest in wheat situation and market. From the character of the trade it can be gathered that the economic situation Is Impressing itself strongly on the public at large. Judging from the comparatively small offerings of cash by the country the producer has not yet become permeated with belief in lower prices. On this point we might say that when cash corn was selling around $1.50 and higher it was an impossibility to secure offerings of cash corn from country in any volume. At present values are much lower and the market Is flooded with offerings from all sources. Corn—Many former sellers of corn were Inclined to accept profits in early market, but continued offerings of the old crop by the country regardless of price and a well-nigh perfect weather map, precipitated heavy and scattered commission selling which seemed fio be belated liquidation. The market has lacked Important support during the day. There is uo doubt but that the weather is maturing the crop In excellent shape. We Rre unable to discover anything in the immediate or the future situation which warrants the idea of important or permanent rallies. However, we would like to have you note that market h3 had a straightaway decline of almost Sf c, of which 14c has been secured In last six business days. Because of this the market is undoubtedly in position to experience a reaction. In the event they appear salesare again In order. Oats—Tflere is no such wave of selling in oats as in other grains probably because of the fact that oats is relatively clfoap. Market to a great extent is neglected. Provisions—Cash trade of good amount. Nevertheless values drag.

The western disturbance has not advanced modi since Friday morning, and it now extends In ’deep trough shape over the Plains States and the western Canadian Provinces. It has caused a marked rise in temperature between the Mississippi and the Rocky Mountains in Northern and central sections, the readings in the middle plains being now about 20 degrees above the normal for the season. Cold weather prevails from the Rockies westward, across the Great Basin, and frosts or freezing temperatures were reported from a number of places in that region. Rains and a Uttle snow have fallen in the far Northwest, and rains also in parts of the Eastern and Southeastern States. J. H. ARMINGTON, Meteorologist, Weather Bureau.
On Commission Row Most of the houses on commission row enjoyed a livelier tone of trading at the opening of the market today than has been enjoyed fer some time due perhaps more than anything else to the supply of tropical and semi-tropical fruits that are now making their way to the market. The downward trend of some of the □rices of the staple commodities has also been an added stimulus to buying on the part of the general public. The slump in potato prices is said to be due to the reports from the potato growing sections that there is an abundant crop and to the fact that the growers are rushing them to the market, having last year learned a lesson by the effect cn hoarding caused by the dry rot.

PRICE OF MEALS STAYS UP WHILE MARKETS DROP (Continued From Page One.) to which the eating places operated-as private enterprises generally are subject, but it is of worth as showing at least three of the Items of expense to be borne. In general, colored waiters at the better eating places In Indianapolis get' from $2 to $2.50 and food for each meal period they serve. Competent stewards say that good waiters can not effloently serve more than an average of from twelve to fifteen persons during any one two-hour meal period. Thus If the average waiter gets $2.50 per meal period (which is believed to be much higher than the average) and eats food which at th most would cost the management not more than 50 cents, making hie total pay $3 and serves a total of fifteen persons the average cost of service per person would be 20 cents. But the avefuge of 15%c per ratroa charged to service by the Duluth Chamber of Commerce Includes the pay not only of waiters, but also of cooks and assistants in the kitchen. Just to show that it is still being done, the fact that the Duluth Club serves a good lunch for 30 cents Is. cited. A sample menu of one of these 30cent lnndhes is as follows: Spaghetti with duck liver, potatoes, rolls and butter, bread and butter, pudding, milk, buttermilk, tea or coffee. Two of the Indianapolis business men's clubs, the Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade serve 50-cent lunches In their cases, both of which compare favorably with the meals which can not be bought even at some of the cafeterias for less than from 85 cents to sl. All of which leads to the conclusion that some of the more widely-known cafeterias that are not faced with the expense of big serving corps and feed hundreds of people more per day than fio the hotels, must be the real moneymaking food dispensing institutions of the city.
