NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—The delicate tension of the speculative temper was illustrated by the course of to-day's market, which seemed 0 be going prosperously on its way toward recuperation and recovery in prices until the Jast half hour of the trading. ‘After that time n prices were bowled over in every direction, | like a set of ten pins which had been set up sim to be knocked down again. The sell- ing movement was in full force when the market closed and prices tending rapidly down- ward. Some of the earlier gains were held though in other prominent stocks the notable advance achieved earlier in the day was most- iy wiped out. The market gave every appear- ance of having thrown off the incubus of the money scare. The reports from abroad were a_more conciliatory attitude on the part of fdent Kruger, and the decision of the b French Government to pardon Dreyfus caused @ rally in foreign markets. There as well as here the short interest had been largely ‘over- extended and they found some difficulty in | te | at Fecuring stocks to cover short contracts. “Pro- fessional operators who had secured stocks at yesterday's low level had turned bull and there was a falr volume of buylng in commission ties, notably the New York t stocks, | Call loans which have suffered violent losse: Time loa’ marked up rapldly.

The small ad- | vance was almost immediately lost. Heavy selling, which marked yesterday's session and which was supposed to be liquidation of some % .’,;" long lines, was continued to-day.

Bulllshness caused by this was in- creased by reports that a good deal of the buying was for Armour. This scared shorts and caused covering. Offerings were light, outside of the long liquidation referred to, and prices fluctuated rapidly within a compara- tively narrow range, the market at times ex- hibiting some nervousness.

Australian wools out some long Wheat, offerings were readily absorbed and the spell of weakness soon dis- appeared. During the atternoon the strength of coarse grains was influentlal in the steadi- ness of Wheat, and although bear attacks were frequent, prices were well maintained to the end. Little was done in September. Interest in that deal had apparently died out and prices kept close to the opening price—70}%c—most of the sessfon. December was bringing T0%c at the close. Trading in Corn was quite active, especially for September, in which a sharp advance was recorded. Shorts were active bidders from the start, but had a good deal of difficuity in covering and prices were bid up accordingly. December closed #@igc higher. September gained 1ic. Oats were helped by the strength of Corn and ruled firm all day, December closing e higher.

Some New South Wales wool was withdrawn on account of the bids not reaching the figures of the holdings. Greasy merinos and fine crossbreds wera equally aivided between the home trade, France and Germany. Medium coarse crossbreds in large su were absorbed by the home trade freely at 5@7% per cent advance. The French buyers also took several parcels.

PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 10.—Portland export- ers have been forced out of the market by high-priced wheat and high-priced ships. Either one or the other might have been met sepa- rately, but combined they have brought mat- ters to a standstill. San Francisco men are chartering ships to go from the north to the Bay city at a_figure which would mean an actual loss of 3 or 4 cents Ye'r bushel if Port- land dealers were to attempt to fill them here. At the lowest rate intimated for a ship in this port, Walla Walla would not be worth more than B8 cents per bushel, but very little can be purchased at that figure.
