ALEXANDER G. MCcADIE, Forecast Official. SR L *- | | i EASTERN MARKETS. } New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The same doubt and hesitation regarding the future course of prices was reflected in to-day’s stock market as In | yesterday’s. Speculation was listless and apathetic and the sentiment of traders, whose operations made up the market. underwent many variations. Few active stocks show any change of as much as a point, even The disposition was to'close up contracts both on the long and short side until the future course | of prices outlines itself more definitely. This tendency was demonstrated in the response of Erocklyn Transit and of Atchison to the specific developments affecting them. The annual re- port of Brooklyn Transit which was published after the close of the market last night was interpreted unfavorably in all the current com- ment, especfally in the disclosure that the treasury bonds had been sold during the year. Yet the stock promptly advanced and resisted an attempt on the part of the professional traders to depress the price. The stock ad- vanced at one time 2 spicuous strength in the market. The increase in the Atchison dividend rate, although con- fidently predicted in some quarters, had been denied with equal confidence in others. In fact the decision seems to have been discussed and finally decided in the meeting itseif of the directors. The attempt to advance the stock on the announcement proved abortive, the ex- treme rise over last night reaching iess than a point. The doubt over the predicted advance was due to the fact of the shortage In the corn crop. Some of the other Bouthwestern railroads were offered down sharply as though to emphasize this view. The estimate of the vear's wheat crop in an agricultural periodical, placing it at a record figure of 109,000,000 bushels for Kansas alone, was an opportune offset to this contention. The election of an additional Standard Oil representative to the Union Pa- cific board .of directors was a verification of another bull prediction. But the bull party hesitated to take up the speculation for an _‘r\anreA owing to the danger that money flur- i may still intervene before the interior ovement of currency terminates. Sterling ex change was notably strong to-day on an activ: demand, demand sterling fairly touching $4 86. This is more than a cent in the pound sterling above the gold import point. Sugar and Amal- gamated Copper, which continued active, drift- ed rather uncertainly, but with a firm under- tone. Norfolk & Western was bid up nearly 2 points at cne time on'the assumption that recent accumulation of the stock was for ac- count of lvania Interests. The stock Closed frrezuiar. There was o sharp break in Wabash De- benture B bonds. The market otherwide was rather dull and irregular.

A consid- erable quantity of long wheat had been carried over night in expectation of a good rise to- day, but when there was no response in cables to the local bulge every one seemed to want to let go of his holdings and a rapldly sagging market was the result. The usual bearish statistics were present again with no improve- ment in the cable list and December opened 3@'ec to H%@%c lower at 69%@63%e, A sharp break of Yc resulted from liquidation during the first hour. Reports of a conslderable in- crease in shipments had a recuperative effect, but this was short-lived and on a revival of selling by bears December declined to 69%c.
