Henry Clews, the New York banker, one of the closest and best-posted financial observers in the United States, savs of the carrent situa- tion *“There is stili a very pranounced spirit of caution in Anancial circles. This arises from the slow Lu: sure spread of the idea that the crest of the boom has been reached and that we mre now undergoing a partial financial reaction—an outcome persistently pointed out in these advices for months past. With so meny strong interests committed to plans which iled allegiance to the long side of | the mafet, admission of such opinions, of course, comes siowly;-but with the steady curtaiiment of credit facilities, forced by their practical exhaustion. the facts cannot longer be concealed. Very considerable liguidation bas aiready taken place, and more must fol- jow_ Fortunately, the situation is under strong control, the public being practicaily out of #tocke, ‘and contraction falls chiefly upon those best able td bear it instead of upon a mui- titude of small holders whose demoralization | would oniy invite more serious difficylties. | Many of the Josses will be on paper and wili fal upon big holders who failed in more than partially disposing of their original holdings in uewly created corporations. e still have a vast mass of undigested newly made railroad and industrial securitics—some heid privately, some held by strong syndicates controlling wrust companies and banking institutions—and it is this weight upon the market that pre- vented & further rise. At Jower prices a new set of buyers might be fouad, but prosperity has been fully if not over discounted, and Wall street always anticipates events and move- ments—it never follows “'As repeatedly pointed out in these advices, the principal causes of reaction are inordinate- | eral business, ! limited supply at firm rates. at least until cur- | | can be made at a lower level.” Last This Last Stations— 24 hours. scason. - season.

McADIE, Forecast Official. not so -l; —3 I EASTERN MARKETS. || *- ¥* w York Stock Market. NEW YORK, Nov. 12.—Transactions in stocks ran well over a million shares again | to-day in a remarkably feverish and irreg- ular market, The action of the market gave warrant for the presumption that powerful financial interests had set themselves to the | task of supporting the market and establish- ing a condition of equilibrium, It was as- sumed in Wall street that the zelling of stocks had taken on an indiscriminate character that throatened serious results to substantial inter- ests. There was a further threatening break this morning, which was no: unnatural, in view of the rapid decline~in progress at the close of yesterday's market. The impairment | thus caused in margins and the auxiety aroused amcng cutside holders of stock who were not within immediate reach of their brokers yesterday afternoon, brought in heavy selling orders to commission houses this morn- irg, as a recult of which opening prices were from 1 to # points lower for practically all the leading active stocks. - These prices were the lowest of the day,-although the level was approached again on’ ome or two subsequent dips. It became quickly manifest that buyers of uniimited resources were in the market and the heaviest offerings were quickly absorbed and prices were vigorously bid up through | flonds of selling orders. The supporters of the market had a stormy time during the first hour and prices kept running up and down & considerable scale in a lively and confusing manner. but by the end of ‘the first hour the and substantial recoveries were cstablished all through the list. The support centered in St. Paul, Amalgamated Copper and the United States Steel stocks. The buying of these stocks had a notable effect in reassuring specu- lative sentiment, just as their unsupported condition on earlier days of the week was a notable infitence in the depression, There were several special influences which heiped to encourage sentiment. Chicago and North- western, aftcr a drop of three points, recov- ered to six points over last night on the action | of the directors in favor of issulng new stock with the right to stockholders to subscribe at par. The official circular to the Colorado Fuel stockhoiders asking for proxies on behalf of the interest controlling the principal Colorado railroad systems disclosed a new contest for contral of. that property which resulted in. a sharp advance in its prices, Manhattan was benefited by the publication of & very fav- orable annual report. Aside from these develop- ments. in- regard to individual properties, there was very little néws. to account for the movement of prices. Upon the first recovery after a tempcrary pause, atte were made 1o renew the advance, but the selling increased ' at the hig” er level and prices fell back again. Throughout the day whenever prices declined effective support was forthcoming and on.the other hand any considerable advance invited | renewed selling, The close was firm, how- ever, and at about the top level. Missou Pacific offered effective resistance to reaction throughout the day, Money showed a’ rather easier tone, owing to the extensive liquidation and New York ex- chenge at Chicago rose again to par, but sterling exchange was firmly held and it was considered possible up to late in the day that gold might m_.#an to-morrow’s steam- any announcement “made of a-gold en- gagement. a = Bonds were not as well supported as stocks Stocks— Sales.

Fancy stock continyed to meet with a fair local de= mand, but otherwise the market was dull. A car of Sweet Potatoes came In from Merced and soid at the previously quoted rate. The quotations for Onions are for strictly fancy stock only. The market is glutted with poor stock, which is hard to sell at any price. Receipts of Tomatoes were large, but as offerings of fancy were comparatively light prices for such offerings were well sustained. Some poor stock sold to the canners at j0c per box. Green Peppers were in liberal sup- ply and dull. Dried Okra was offering for the first- time this season, but sold slowly. Re- ceipts of Green have about ceased.

Poultry and Game. Although receipts of local Poultry were large, nearly everything cleaned up at sus- tained pijces. Young' chickens were especially steady, the demand being brisk. ' No Western came in, but there is a car close at, hand, that will probably be placed on the market to-day. Dressed Turkeys sold readily at the quotations. Sixteen cases were received. ‘Good sound Game sold quickly at top rates, but some came to hand overheated and other- wise In poor condition, which explains the difference in prices. Only 60 sacks came in.

The steamer Eureka from the northern coast did not bring down the expected quantity of Butter, owing to the heavy rains, which cut down deliveries there by swelling the streams, hence the market continues bare and very firm, with dealersjquoting a further advance. The demand is h_livelier than for some time and even the large handlers, who were so_demoralized several weeks ago, now report sales easy to make and bare floors, Cheese c:nmme- ?m;l ut & There, were several sales of Eggs as B1ac, But the fecling s beresptply. coalcs ‘The goods are too high for the public and almost eveyy desler now has & case or %o to spare. do not show the eagerness of the past few days and receipts are slowly in- though they are still small.

Navel Orangés were in ample supply and §4 was an extreme figure for the best offer- ings. Seedlings, Tangerines and Grape Fruit continued to move freely at unchanged figures. Stocks of fancy Lemons are extremely light and the quotations are largely nominai. Supplies of Grapes were moderate and as there was some inquiry for shipment north prices of small boxes and crates were firmer. Large cpen boxes sold at a wide range, ac- cording to quality. What few Persimmons and Pomegranates came in sold readiiy. Ap- ples continued to meet with a brisk demand at ~ well-sustained rates. Plums, Prunes. Quinces and Pears were offering freely at easy prices, but séld slowly. Receipts of Strawberries were very light. Two chests of Longworths and one of Malindas came in. The former sold quickly, but the latter were in poor condition and sold slowly. There are no Coos Bay Cranberries on the market.
