NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—The Burlington August statement furnished a lever to-day to carry prices upward, and this development was the only factor of consequence bearing upon the general situation. It is true that the in- dustrials, to a considerable extent, dominated the market, but speculation showed a ten- dency to ignore fluctuations in this group. This circumstance caused some favorable comment, &s did also the fact that the general list lapsed into dullness and showed comparative steadi- ness, when concerted attacks on the specialties were made. London quotations indicated a more favorable disposition toward Americans abroad, which was reflected in good buying here throughout the day. Operations by the bear faction were renewed In various direc- tions, with Manhattan looming to the front. Tobacco, of course, was the most vulnerable point, and soon yielded to 12. Covering of shorts put the price back to 128%, and inter- mediate fluctuations between that and the close at 1285 were accompanied by violent dips. This stock, generally speaking, showed a bet- | ter tone and ended for the first time this week | with a net advantage. Call money rates sagged to 2% per cent late in the day. The action of the Government in anticipating the November | interest, coupled with early receipt of & large amount of gold in transit, were responsible for the decline in rates. Time money was also quotably easier for the shorter period, and some prime mercantile paper was discounted &t 3% per cent. Considerable pressure was con- centrated against Sugar as the day drew to a close, but the stock soon recovered and ended firm in common with the remainder of the list, which established slight net gains. Bonds ruled fairly active, but irregular. Total sales, $1,953,000. Government bonds were a trifle easier, the 3s | reacting % per cent. The total sales of stocks to-day were 379,900 shares, including: Atchison preferred, 1Li%s; Burlington, 18,456; Manhattan, 29,350; Northern Pacific, 29,225; Rocl §900; St. Paul, 11,450; Union Pacific preferred, 8180; Tobacco, 11,676; Chicago Great Western, 84,320; People’s Gas, %320; Bugar, 54,000; United Btates Rubber, 7565, CLOSING STOCKS.

CHICAGO, Sept. 20.—The opening in wheat rather indicated a bull market, although it was ditficult to find any explanation of the appar- ent inclination among traders to bur, beyond the fact that Liverpool did not show the de- cline naturally looked for after yesterday's break here. There were numerous fair-sized buying orders at the start, with a scarcity of offerings, the result being that December opened at 63%@63%c, yesterday's closing price, with 64 cents offered almost immediately. But the tone of the market soon changed. North- western receipts were liberal. Recelvers said the country was responding more readily to bids and indications favored a freer movement of wheat. This sort of news weakened the con- | fidence of buyers and resultea in a corre: | ponding increase of offerings, under which prices gradually declined, December getting down to 63%c about an hour from the start. In the meantime September had begun to show radi- | cal weakness. Cash demand was reported poor | and primary receipts, 1,665,000 bushels, were | 400,000 bushels larger than a year ago. This | was partly oftset by heavy clearances, which were put at 925,000 bushels, and complaints of the Russian wheat yleld. But extreme weak- ness of outside cash markets, notably York, and attempts by dealers in that city to resell wheat recently bought here, but not yet shipped, started liquidation that brought the | price down with a rush, all classes of sellers coming into the market and the rapidity of the decline bringing out stop orders both In Sep- tember and December. The latter option ral- lied to 63%c on the heavy clearances, but the selling which the slump in December started brought the price down to 63c. The market grew very heavy toward the close. Selling pres- sure was removed in a degree, but the weak cash situation was very effectual in keeping buyers away and prices kept declining to the end. December closed at lc decline. Corn was weak all day. Cash inquiry was fair, but not much business done. The market closed %@kc lower. Oats were influenced by closing % @¥c lower. Provisions, in view of the weakness of the | grain markets, were surprisingly steady. Janu- ary pork closed 73%c higher; lard 2ic higher and | ribs unchanged. wheat and corn, | " The leading futures ranged as follows: Articles— Open. High. Low. Close.

CALIFORNIA RAISINS IN THE EAST. NEW YORK, Sept. 2).—The Journal of Com- There is a good and even an active demand for California loose Muscatel ralsins for the last half of September and the first half of October shipment, but we under- stand that few orders now going out to the Coast are being confirmed. About every- thing available for September shipment, it Is reported, has been sold, and none of the sell- ers are ready to accept orders for October shipment after the §th of that month, and most of them, it is asserted, have already sold all that they' will be able to pack up to that date. The reason why sellers on the Coast will not accept orders for shipment after October §th s said to be that it {s confidently expected that the association will advance quotations % cent per pound on October 9. There has been no officlal intimation of such an intention on the part of the association so far as we can learn, but the information comes from a large distributing firm whose relations with the heads of the California syndicate are such as to en- title its assertlon to consideration.
