New York Stock Market. W YORK., Oct —Speculative sentiment %eontinued profoundly dubious to-day, but in- ftead of the conflicting movements of prices and the confusion which have refiected this wondition for some time past, the stock market Fazk into a lethargy. Even the professional | qperators seemed to give up the idea of at- tempting to foresee the future movement of prices. It would be necessary to go back 4 Year to find a similar period of dullness. Last Week's transactions on the stock exchange fell bolow the corresponding period of last year for the first time during the present calendar year. This fact and to-day's dullness, which was cven more marked, are striking evidences of the | vncertainty which has overcome the specula- | tion, due 1o the emergency of the Northern Pa- | cific problem and the disclosure of the fact that the ‘actual terms of a settlement still remain 1o be acreed upon. While the incumbency of thé conciliation board of directors of course af- fords a strong guarantee against the outbreak Of the quarrel again the members of that body geem to have practically tne whole task yet before them of finding a plan which will be ac- ceptable as a final settlement to both parties and_relieve the strained condition growing out of the Joad of securities carried for control now by means of bank loans. Incoming forelgn seails disclose that the importance of this prob- lem is fully recognized throughout the financial wordd and its state of suspension acts as a yepressive influence on epeculation. The contin- med uncertainty of the money market outlook 1% another doubtful factor. Money continues to £2 1o the South and the sub-treasury at New ork 1o remove the surplus in therevenue from 1he circulation, while Sterling Exchange rose #zain to-day.

WHEAT—Antwerp was firmer, but Liverpool and Paris showed little change. The amount on_passage to the United Kingdom decreased 1,472,000 bushels, There were light rains in the Argentine, but cables reported that they were of little use. The American visible supply increased 1,185,- 000 bushels. Chicago opened a shade firmer on better foreign advices, but fell back on the light rains in the Argentine. Speculation was active, but the demand for local trade was moderate. There was large local selling. The seaboard reported the ‘foreigners fair buyers.

Poultry and Game. The operation of the new game law has re- sulted in the retailers receiving Ducks on con- signment from the hunters, which has a ten- dency to weaken the market. Yesterday's re- ceipts were 65 sacks, mostly in good condition. Poultry was unchanged. Two cars of Eastern came in and two more are expected to-day, so there will be no shortage, for two or three davs at least.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Yellow Canary, Rape, Butter was a shade lower yesterday, and the market was oversupplied and dragging. A boat came in from the northern coast with a liberal supply, and another falls due to-day. Holders are making concessions to buyers to keep their stocks down. The Cheese market is well supplied. There is no change in the situation in Eggs. Stocks are ample for all needs and the mar- ket is slow uri easy, with no attempt to get any higher prices.

Scattering cars of new Oranges are coming in, selling at unchanged quotations. Lemons and Limes are as before. Pineapples are in light supply and higher. Melons are selling off better, owing to the hot weather. Grapes are plentiful and somewhat lower, as there is no shipping at the moment and the local demand is not up to the quantity on_hand. Peaches are hardly seen now, and will soon be out. Apples, Pears and Plums are un- changed. J DECIDUOUS FRUITS. APPLES—75c@$1 25 per box for good to choice and 2@6c for ordinary.

The Chicago market was again somewhat lower. The demand was reported moderate for meats, but very poor for Lard. Receipts of Hogs were less than anticipated. Quotations in this market remained un- chaaged. Lard has turned completely around and whereas several weeks ago it was the firmest and most active article in the list, it is now the dullest and weakest.
