The rumor that Morgan had purchased 60,000 shares of Union Pacific was freely given out ami the heavy buying upon thy floor by Morgan hous-i (jave the. stock strength actively. The New York City bond sold at the highest point thus far, also imparted vim to the general market. Steel common was heavily traded. The steel stocks, however, did riot close at their best prices. The perfect weather for the corn cropa wa aa influence quite generally commented on. The close was firm with confidence and optimism being the general feeling all around. HEW YORK STGGK IMET

CHICAGO LETTER. Chicago, Sept. 19. Despite the narrow and rather professional character of tho wheat market, values have advanced today and have retained a fair portion of the gain. In view of the character of tho news received, however, the net gain has been Quito moderate. Heavy general rains over the northwest were expected to delay threshing and marketing and tho news from tho Canadian northwest Indicated that the damage there had been under estimated. Outside points reported an improvement in demand for cash wheat for export, but failed to g-ivo particulars. It was claimed Kansas City had sold heavily for export. St. Louis to tho southwest and southwest mills and that the northwest had Bold durum and Canadian market had sold Manitoba sorts. Rids received here for red winter were relatively oneeighth and one-uuarter of a cent lower than yesterday, but hard winter held it at practically the same basis as yesterday. Cash sales, 75,000; seaboard, 69 loads. CORN Has been active but irregular, weak at start, rallying and then adding a fractional advance for active months and 1 for September in which there Was little doing. Tho early decliuo was on failure of tho frost predictions for the southwest, warm weather in the corn belt and liberal speculative soiling pressure stimulated by tho opening slump In wheat. Cash tales. 12 5.000. OATS Took a new Epurt of special activity today. Local traders took hold of May and tho prices advanced very easily. There was excellent cash demand, but shippers hero were compelled to work with caution because of tho limited available supply. produce: markets.

Stocks Yesterday's advance was somewhat of a relief from the monotonous decline. Good dividend rallwa'y stocks are cheap and should be bought, especially Northern Pacific and Union Pacific. Northern Pacific is to have an extra dividend In October, and the great success of tho City bond issue makes me feel that the market Is a purchase. We think Values will, and should do better. Prices for Copper stocks are too low. Taking everything into consideration there should be some improvement. The street is awaiting the Bonaparte speech In Chicago which may be somewhat radical, but the market looks good to me. and I would advise buying some of tho good rails, and also Steel Preferred on any recession today. Wo have no hesitancy in advising to buy on weak spots for good profits, tho Hills, Harrimans, St. Paul, Atchison, Northwestern, coalers, Pennsylvania, B. & O., L. & N., and Atlantic Coast Line. We do not especially favor the industrials, but would not sell them short. Standard Oil Earnings. Sensational disclosures regarding the fabulous earnings of Standard Oil were brought out yesterday afternoon at the hearing In the suit of the United States government to dissolve the corporation. Adroit questioning drew from the reluctant Hps of Clarence G. Fay, resident comptroller of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, the admission that in seven years Standard Oil Profits amounted to $490,315,934 or something over $70,000,000 a year. Stocks There is very little new that I oan say. Railroad stocks hold well an4 show no signs of going back to the low records of last month. Industrials j have gone lower than we expected, but I It Is historic that industrials continue making new bottoms after the railroads C. H. WANZE STOCK AK'D BOND BROKER.

have turned. About all the bad things that can happen to copper have been discounted by the decline In Amalgamated. Our opinion is that th market will gradually improve. P.ldgely. The market showed a decidedly stronger tendency at the opening and prices under fcliort covering rallied about one per cent compared with last night's close, but it soon became evident that prof t taking was In progress, and Coppers, Smelteis and Steel w?re neavily sold, which brought about a reaction of over two per cent, and the railroad list naturally sympathized, and Northern Pacific and Cnion Pacific were the leaders in the decline, the former losing nearly 3 per cent from the best, while the latter declined about 1 pi-r cent. In the closing hour there was a, little more activity and prices rallied somewhat. There is very little that can b said on the general situation; tho market is in tho hands of the prefessional element and subject to the whims of the traders on the floor. Generally speaking, we are rather optimistically inclined, as we think the situation Is slowly Improving, and we therefore, would favor purchases on all reactions, but profits should be taken on good rallies.

Although tho Maori3 of New Zea- ! land tave Eiade considerable strides I ia civilization during recent years some of their barbaric superstitions survive.
