New Yotjt, Sept. 7.—The idea that the ad
vance in pitccs at the stock exchange during
the past ten days or so had been too rapid,
found many new believers to-day and in the
tirst hour of business the market was weaker
in consequence of a shifting of position by
this class. The chronic bears, who have been
rather quiet of late, were not slow to discern
the change in sentiment as well as the with
drawal of certain operators with bullish pro
clivities from active participation in the cur
rent. market movements. The ease with
which General Electric yielded, playing
right into their hands, and the minors of bonds
issued by the Chicago Gas Company subse
quently confirmed, gave them the lirstchance
in over a week of bringing about a decline
in prices. General Electric was by far the
weakest stock on the list on reports that the
directors had decided to suspend divi
dends This could not be confirmed
at the company's offices here, where it was
stated tnat these matters had not come up
for consideration as yet. Nevertheless, the
stock was forced down from 47js toil. Chi
cago lias was pressed for sale and declined
from tit >to s 'Hi on the rumors of a $10,(100.000
bond issue bvone of its subsidiary companies.
The heaviness of these specialties resulted In
a decline of to l ; s per cent., in the general
list. Lake Shore securing the largest decline.
In the last hour of business the general mar
ket showed a tendency to rally, but General
Electric and Chicago Gas continued weak
to the close. Compared with yesterday 's lir.al
llgures the active issues show losses of M to
3* s per cent., except for Manhattan and New
England, which made slight gains. Evans
ville arid Terre Haute recovered 3 per cent.,
closing ut 7,). The market left oil irregular,
but in the main weak. Sales of stocks were

New York. Sept. 7. -Kiordan & Cos. say of
cotton: Liverpool to-day sent us a decline
of more than 6 64, which seemed a stagger
ing blow to the bulls, yet the buying f *verat
the south is so strong just now that the do
cline at our opening was only about 7 points,
amt most of this was recovered during the
day. January opened at B.loe. declined
B.oßc and advanced to 8.15 c. but the
improvement was not fully maintained
ami the close was quiet and steady,
with 8.12 c bid for January. The receipts con
tinue light, and the shorts are sopiewhat un
easy about the bureau report, which is ex
pected on Saturday. We look a very fev
erish market during the remainder of the
week, mainly controlled by the news from
Liverpool. Next week’s receipts promise to
be heavier, and unless spinners abroad show
more eagerness to buy than at present we are
likely to see lower prices.”

in wheat to-day on speculative account- The
opening was unsettled from under to -‘tie
over the closing figures of yesterday and ad
vanced *4c more, then became weak and
prices declined 1 The close was about
higher tliari v* sterdav and still further
advances were scored, the market retaining a
large proportion of the advance. Outside
orders were more numerous and local shorts
wore disposed to cover, creating on immense
demand. The market opened *j@ 44 e higher,
and with an urgent demand and light offer
ing sold un quickly with slight reductions. %
Cg, 1c; on heavy selling it sold off *,c and
at the close was 1 (jj \ ( c higher than yester
day. Oats trailed along after the other grain
markets, advanced early and declined. The
close was slightly higher for May and 3 „c
higher for September. Provisions ruled firm
on a good cash demand for shipment. The
January product was in better demand at
higher prices, in sympathy with higher
priced corn. September pork closed 25c above
yesterday. Final prices on lard were 2*4
