McADIE, it Officlal. —— New York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Oct. 10.—There was a notable revival of speculation in the stock market to- day, following the movement of the last day or two. Pretty much every department of the market became affected in an increasing degree and in the Jate dealings the market became fairly buoy- ant and closed active and strong at about the top level. This sudden outburst of speculation at & reversal of the recently current sentiment caused a circulation of many rumors and gave rise to a supposition of some important de velopment in the financial world not yet di closed to the public. The rumors ventere about supposed Northwestern railroad world and early took the form of & plan for adjustment with the Can- adian Pacific, which might eliminate compe- tition, = Anothier report specifically formulated was that a corporation was to be formed to consolidate the ownership of the Great North- emn and Northern Pacific on the basis of 200 shares for Great Northern preferred and 125 for Northern Pacific common, Northern Pacific preferred to be retired at par. The transoon- tinental stocks, which had been somewhat neglected in the early strength, leaped into activity and strength. Great Northern pre- ferred jumped 8 points to 19%%; Northern Pa- cific preferred and Chicago and Northwestern 3, St. Paul 2% and Union Pacific 2%. There was a renewed heavy demand for the Erig stocks | also, which lifted them 1%@4. This culmina- | tion of the day’s bullish tendency caused a rush to cover by the bears. The demand from this wavering and hesitating | further developments in the | | Dld_Dominion. | Rubber .... source showed a state bordering on demoraliza- | tion on the part of the large short interest ia | the market The majority of active stocks are | a point or more higher. the first marked evidence of strength, New Jersey Central jumping 7 polnts and others of | Amalgama the group 1 to 4. ted Copper and | Sugar were very active and strong at an ad- vance of about $ polnts each, the short in- | terest playing an important part in their move- | ment. The opening of the market gave no pre- monition of the day's movement, many Im- | portant stocks opening unchanged. Very large | speculative interests obviously had the market | in hand. They seemed to be actuated by a | belief that the resources of the banks were | now sufficient to provide for the season's de- | mand from the interior for money. Taking the ground that the fall demand for money has been the only repressive influence on the market these interests inaugurated an active buying movement for a recovery in the mar- | kef. Several unfavorable factors were com- | pletely ignored. Some of these were the notable | strength of sterling exchange, which was em- | phasized to-day, ,renewed softness in the Lon- don market for faw copper, the threatened ex- | tension of the trade war between the American | Sugar Refining Company and the beet sugar | interests, decidedly less sanguine views of the | Years outlook fgr the fron industry, a declining | ratio of increasé of railroad earnings and vari- B factors which have been influential ate. There was a decided increase of activity in | the rallroad bond market and prices generally | advanced. Total sales, par value, $,750,000. TUnited States new 4s advanced 3 per cent on the last call.

The Ameri | can department attracted the most attention to- day, dealings in that group steadily increasing in volume, developing into a burst of activity on the street after the close of business. In the upward movement the coal stocks, particu- larly Norfolk and Western, led, with Atchison and Union Pacific also popular.

London Wool Sales. LONDON, Oct. 10.—The fifth serles of the wool auction sales closed to-day with a good attendance of buyers. The selection was good active, stronger. and the varlous grades offered met with active competition. Since the close of the July series there was some improvement in the demand for finer growths experiencéd in the manufac- turing districts. The movement was largely due to the necessities of the German and French manufacturers and spinners, who falled o replenish their stocks, allowing them to run abnormally low during the financial troubles of 1000. Merinos were in strong demand and advanced T3 per cent. All scoureds showed fur- ther hardening as the sales progressed. The finer scoureds sold fully 10 per cent and super grades 5 to 7% per cent above the July aver- | age. Fine crossbreds advanced 5 to 10 per cent to the higher points of the serfes. Superiors held the advance until the close, but medium and inferior merinoes weakened somewhat. The closing _tone, however, was firm. Coarse cross- breds declined until prices reached 5 per cent below the July series. The general demand during the entire series was strong and ani- mated. During the series 305,000 bales avallable, and of this number 253,19 were cata- logued. The total sales numbered 141,600 bales to the home trade, 127,000 to the Continent, 3000 to America and 34,000 held over. y New York Metal Market. NEW YORK, Oct. 10,.—Much to the surprise of the local copper trade, prices advanced about 123 points to-day, and jobbers were ready buy- ers of supplies for immediate use. At the close spot was firm at §16 75@17 for Lake and $16 50@ 16 6235 for casting. At London copper prices opened a shade higher, but later eased off and closed unchanged from the previous night's close, £63 15s for spot and £63 5s for futures. Tin was easler locally at §24 25@24 50. Spot tin at_London was 10s higher, while futures were 12s 6d lower. Lead was unchanged at home and abroad.

The snap s leaving the market, as the con- tinued decline at Chelago is beginning to make local dealers cautious. A dispatch from Chi- cago to Bolton, de Ruyter & Co. says that if the advance in Hogs had stopped around ge there would have been a good steady distribu- tive trade, but they went up to §7 40, the high- est price for eight years, and checked the de- mand. Since then the market has been on the down grade. One Chicago packer says that he has not killed a hog for a menth and still has plenty of product to sell. The product has | only’ Pork gone off as fast as the price of H i $1 65 lower than three weeks ago, Hogs hats declined 1o and Ribs Sic.

Market Street Railroad continued to lead, 1ling from $91 30 down to $89. Makawell sold up to 3§28 and Contra Costa Water to §78. Gas and Electric was firm at $4@43 1245 and_there were trans- actions in Oceanic at $12. Regarding the pro- Dosed deal in Market Street Rallroad it is said that the Eastern syndicate and the.con- trolling interests in the stock are about $ apart in their views as to the value of the stock, the syndicate bidding $105 and the own- ers asking $110. The difference, while not large, seems to have been sufficlent to delay proceedings and unsettle the stock for a week or_more. There was nothing new in the oil stocks, In the afternoon Market Street Railroad con- tinued to decline, selling down to $58 50. There were sales of California Wine at $36@ §5. There has been some activity in this stock during the past day or two. Contra Costa Water weakened off to $7775 and Paauhau Sugar to $10. Business was fairly active. The Rio Tinto Copper Mining Company of Europe, an English concern, has just de- clared a dividend of 33s per share for the half year. The previous dividend was 45s. This is in line with the action taken by the Amal- gamated Copper Company in cutting the divi- dend on its shares. This is the fourth big copper company to reduce its dividend in the last thirty days. The Calumet & Hecia Is not one of the four. This company s reported to have just declared its regular dividend. The shares of the English copper company have been going downward for some time past. The company was formed in-1878. Dividends began at the rate of 3 per cent in 1386 STOCK AND BOND EXCHANGE.
