Efforts for reaction were made wiih more confidence this morning, as London was again sellers of stacks, every tiling, except Union Pacific, among the favorites of that center being among the stocks disposed of, and reports of frost in the northwest came in to help the bearish sentiment among the traders. Prices were higher at the opening, but the pres sure .brought to b ar was at last successful in forcing prices below the level of those of the opening The business of yesterday was more widely distributed tnan that of any day for the last year, the number of stock® dealt in reach ing about U's. Another encouraging sign for the market is the comprehensive insignificance of the dealings in the unlisted department. Tee incubus of manipulation of thoso proper ties being removed from the market, gives legitimate securities a chance to reach their proper level. The effects of the frosts in the west were not of material consequence, and de clines in prices went no further than fractions, although a few stocks here and there yielded readily because of special pressure or other circumstances Among these Lake Shore was prominent with a dro,j of per cent., but a large portion of this loss was afterward re gained.

There were also buying orders from the south on appre hension of damage tq the new crop by worms.

Dece nher w heat was uupurchasahle in any quantity untd it was l%c higher than yester day’s close. There was transactions at t heramo moment at the openiug, ranging all the way from $1 03 to $1 0G& After a >ale or two at $i the buying orders, at unlimited prices, appeared to have been exhausted, and at tho sa ue time, as the call price had been reached, selling against those privileges came into play aud very soon kaoci.ed off 1c mr of t early bulge. The price was very irr *gular a.l the forenoon, declining and recovering agf.i i very rapidly and within a range of $i V 4 aud $1 but about au hour before tho clo** there was a very weak fooling, indue and by the New York rep oris of lower cables and foreigners re selling there, ad a drop to $1 04% was the re sult. Clearances from the Atlantic sea-board was again very heavy, but foreign markets were reported lower in private dispatehe* earlier, and prices likely to decline with any im provomenfc in their weather. The closing cables to the Board of Trade showed an advance at Liverpool, but continental markets were lower, and even Liverpool was quoted lower in some of the private messages, and the first a Tent of the frost scare had by that time been recovered from The drop in the prices above referred to was rather sudden and resembled in its conse quences to the long, and what has more fre quently of lato been, the experienc of short sellers; upon the attempt of the former party to unload their earlier purchases no buyers could be found between $1 05ki 104 V ; , and it was not until it was being offereJ at $1 1 that anyiquantity could be disposed of. The closing price was $1 01*4. The corn market was kept on the boil during the srrea er parr of the session. Tho frost in the northw st, it was feared, would reach down in the corn belt to night, and in fact, tbe weather bureau makes that prediction. At the close of the session October corn, after selling lV4c higher, an i higher than it closed yesterday, rested with a comparatively modest gain of %c. August and September were less bullishly affected ty the day’s nows, closing at aa advanc * of only over yesterday s latest quotations; year gained aud May %c. The opening of to (lay’s corn market was quite as mild, in the matter of wi !♦ range prices in the first transact orjg. as was the caso at tho same moment in the vh at pit September corn was started at from 65c to 66c. the latter being the highest price paid to-day, and it closed at 65c. Octobei sold at the open ing anywhere from 59c to and sold as high as 60V4 a ' Jf l **** ,ow as and closed at 59y£c, against 59c at the close yesterday. There was nothing of interest in the oat market, which was very dull. Prices fluctuated with wheat and corn, and were little stronger than yesterday, without being much higher. The market opened steady, advanc and de clined %c. advanced and clos'd steidy where it did yesterdav. September and October changed handfi a‘ difference. Efforts were made to change v)ciober to .May, at 34® 3J4c premium for the latter, but little business was done. The provision market started firm, and after the rather protracted weak aud inter mediate spell strength ned and closed at a moderate advance upon yesterday’s final figures. September pork opened at $lO 32V$, declined to $lO $), recovered ali of the early de cline and 15c more, and closed with a net gain for the day of 2V4c, October went through a similar course, but Its gain was 5 cents. January was comparatively stronger tban either, and shows an advance of 7>sc made an ad vance in each of the thre > options—September, October and January of JO cent*. Ribs also re ceived more advantage tkert-Larvalled- pork from the bullish feeling which prevailed, add ing 10 cents to yesterday’s close.
