POWER OF RESISTANCE IS STRONG | Ankiety that Speculators’ Posit Unw NEW YORK, May has rarely met the death of a capitalist of foremost prominence with so little disturb- ance was caused by the sudden death of H. H. Rogers today. It was concluded, the anxiety professed for several days past that the speculative unstable and vulnerable. From passive re sistance to depression, the tone passed to positive strength The Aemonstration of sting power could not well have had other consequence, since the fear of over- speculation And . top-heavy eondition of values which might lead to a violent re- iapse in case of accident had been sole unfavorable factor which could pointed out in the situation, Prices have suffered more serious set backs often on' rumors of Mr. Roger's death or ‘merious iliness than happened to day following -his death. Mr Rogers had represted to the Wall street position, as much a& any one man the central figures of the vaguel be moat potent of all the dimiy apprehended forees which work concealod from view and supposedly armed with the most compiete their regulation. such a the The sudden removal of ored may have disastrous conse- nees to & speculative position, as in case of the sudden death of ex-Gov- trolling figure. Bven where there is known to be no heavy speculative commitments In the stock market, decided depression is sometimes caused by the death of a man | of the vast property Interests and adminis- trative activity of Mr. Rogers, The extreme effect toduy was measure by a decline of 1% in the price of shares state, common to cholce, | 9f Amalgamatea Copper, of which company | 3@ec; Pacific 10c; 1907 cro oKota, Nk@Le ER—Steady; acid, 23@25c.

The reason for this Imperturb- bility quickly be came to be understood in the general withdrawal of Mr. Rogers from stock exchange operatlons of late years. His engrossment with his pet project of all hls at- tention. Furthermore it was belleved that the state of his health since an attack in 907, had induced his retirement from meny f“r;n'tr activitles and a_affalrs In order to guar "'-F;."T“' Al oty guard against e impression of the strong underlyin @onaition of the stook market imomon”wni not the less strong on account of these explanations of the resiatance shown. Fac- tore of encouragement in the outlook which have been n abeyance for sevornl days came into play again. United States Steel, of which: Mr. Rogers was n director, was conspicuously strong, rising through its previous record price of 58% to 50%. Chosa- peake & Ohlo at $ also touched a price never reached by that stock. The movement in steel was attributed to the restoration of wages hy the independent steel companies and the inferences drawn from that action as to the returning profits of the Industry, even at the lower prices at which the recent heavy orders have been booked. News from the copper trade con- tinued very encouraging and a buoyant rise in copper was in progress in the London market, when the decline in Amalgamated Copper on account of the death of the president of the company checked the ad- vance. Crop news was considered favorable in ‘e further outgo of gold to France had no influence. Currency continues to arrive In such volume from the interior as to serve an effective offset.

Other Buyers Bt} 133 Totals A6 91 CATTLE—Receipts of cattle were rather liberal again today and the quality of the offerings was well up to the recent ex- cellent average. Advices from eastern markets were decidedly bearish, as receipts there were considerabiy heavier than anti- cipated and this, together with the liberal local supply, made a rather depressing in- fluence on 'the trade, prices being un- evenly lower from start to finish. Some of the handy light and medium welght beeves such as all cl # of buyers were after did not show y much decline, while on the other hand the heavy grade as well as the unfinished grades were fully 10c lower thar yesterday and slow at that, Outside orders were fairly liberal, but local dressed beef men all took a very bearish view of the situation and were indifferent buyers throughout, it being well along to- ward noon Dbefore much impression had | been made on the receipts. Increased supplies of cows and helfers also gave buyers a chance to ehitapen up and, while prices were fairly well sustained on the light grades, the general market was pretty close to 10c Jower on the ordi- nary run of stuff. The trade was rather slow throughout, but the falr demand was sufficient to clean up the offerings in very good season, Inquiry from the country for stockers and feeders has been Improving steadily this week and In spite of the depression in fat cattie the market for desirable stock steers and feeders heid fully steady and the limited offerings of this character ed hands In good season at firm Quotations on cattle: Good to cholce cornfed steers, $6.50@6.90; fair to good corn- fed steers, $6.00@6.40; common to fair corn- fed steers, $5.0006.9; good to cholce cows and heifers, $.%5@6.10; fair to good cows and heifers, $4.40G5.25; ‘common to fair cows and heifers, $2.%G4.2%; good to choice stockers and feeders, ' $4.80(6.50; fair to 800d stockers and feeders, $4.0004.30 mon to fair stockers and feede 4.00; stock helfers, 83.25@4.40; veal -calves, $4.25@7.3; bull ags, etc.. $3.266.60.

Supplies were onesided as well as meager, there belng only & light “sprinking of wooled stock. ‘here were not en wooled offerings among the arrivals to make much of a market Clippers opened about steady with yester- and met with a cool reception. The trade was slow, considering the limited re- ceipts, but salesmen were determined in thelr efforts to extract the limit of valucs and on most sales trading figures were not materially different from yesterday. Two loads of clipped lambs, the kind that sold yesterday at $7.90, regietered in the same notch today. A emall string of shorn ewts were good enough to make $8.10, but there was practically nothing in ewes or weth- as with which to test values. While the market on spring lambs 1s generally of a very fickle nature and for that reason difficult to call at its true level, prices on young stuff this mornl appeared to suffer more than values on clipped stock.
