BEAR PARTY AGTIVE
Stock Market Yielded'to Re
peated Attacks,
THE WALL STREET REVIEW
Heavy Selling of Steel Stocks .Ex
plained by Depressed Condition
of the Metal Trade-Large
Gold Movement Expected.
JTBW TOHK. Nov. 1. Trading In todays
etock market was listless and narrow. Oper
ations were on too small a scale to offer any
thing of a representative character. There
were a few points of strength, including Chi
cago & Alton, on a revival of rumors of Its
possible absorption as a connecting link In a
larger srstem. The market, as a whole, Jailed
to show any continuation of yesterday's- move
ment to cover shorts, and prices drifted rather
aimlessly.
The bank statement proved decidedly more
farorable than the forecast had Indicated, but,
nevertheless. Its publication was followed by
c brisk selling movement, which centered -upon
Pennsylvania, costing that stock the greater
part of yesterday's gain. Reading and Amal
gamated Copper also lost more than a point,
and the whole list receded to below last night.
The decline In the-ash reserves of the banks
proved to bo only $2,018,200. Testerday's esti
mates indicated an outgo for the week of
C4.000.000, without allowance for yesterday's
arrival of foreign gold to the amount of nearly
$1,000,000. The deposit liabilities of the banks
havo been reduced by $14,029,000, principally
through the loan contraction of $10,240,500.
The reserve requirement Is thus diminished to
tho amount of $3,057,400. leaving an Increase
In the surplus of $744,200. With the falling
off of the movement of currency to the Interior
and the supply of foreign gold afloat for this
port, the money market prospect seems to offer
no occasion for uneasiness, without counting
the likelihood of a considerable further move
ment of gold this way. The market closed
dull and heavy.
Enormous selling of United States Steel se
curities, followed by selling of a similar char
acter In Pennsylvania, has disturbed tho stocn
market during the week. The sympathetic ef
fect of the weakness of these stocks was re
elsted for a time, and the general market
showed a degree of firmness, but ultimately
succumbed and yielded to a lower lever. The
source and the motives of the selling have been
subjects of wide conjecture, much of which ap
peared In the form of assertions that could not
be verified. The diligent activity of a large
and well-organized bear party accounted for
uome of the rumors sot afloat, and a large part
of the dealings In the most prominent stocks
was evidently for professional account In the
form of trading in and out for short turns on
the movement, without affecting the actual
holdings of stock permanently. But the success
attending these professional operations, and the
steady downward course of prices pointed to a
process of actual liquidation and of impelling
causes for It which undermined speculative
confidence and weakened the whole market.
The course of the United States Steel stocks
had for the most obvious explanation the de
pressed condition of the Iron and steel trades,
now freely acknowledged. The professional
leaders of the bear campaign against these se
curities apparently fixed for an objective the
price of 60 for the preferred and 10 for tho
common, and those points were touched by both
stocks and overrun ay a quarter for the pre
ferred. Large covering of short contracts then
followed, and rallied both stocks.
The developments have Indicated the futility
of the United States Steel Corporation as a de
vice for maintaining stability In the trade, as
had been hoped for at Its formation. The re
straint which the corporation had been able to
exercise upon the rise In prices during the pe-
nou oi active aemana was proved ineffectual
to conserve that demand, and the present cuts
In prices point to the necessity of old methods
to stimulate demand afresh. The result has
been to arouse fears that former precedents of
an Interval of extreme depression in the trade
must be faced. Greater confidence is now felt
In tlie power to restrict production and prevent
the unprofitable accumulation of stocks. But
the effect of this process upon earning power
and dividend payments Is dreaded. '
The depression In the Iron and steel trade
had a direct bearing on the movement in Penn
sylvania, owing to the large tonnage of iron
and steel products carried by that road. The
falling off In the coal trade, both anthracite
and hltumlnous, was also offered as a factor
In Pennsylvania's weakness. But the principal
causo of tho selling of this stock was believed
to be the large expansion In tho capital of the
system which la in progress.
Tho extreme weakness of foreign exchange is
attributed, in part, to foreign subscriptions to
the new railroad bond Issues and heavy offer
ings of bills against cotton exports, which have
forced the exchange rate down to the gold Im
port point. In spite of measures by foreign
bankers to protect their gold supply. The gold
movement Is expected to reach considerable pro
portions, and relief from the Interior demand
upon New York for currency Is thus felt to be
assured.
The recent notable absorption In tho bond
market has been halted, but prices have not
yet yielded materially. United States 2s de
pllned and the old Ss and old 4s & per cent
below the closing bid of last week.
NEW YORK BANK STATEMENT.
Another Large Decrease In Loan Item
Striking reature,
NEW YORK. Nov. 14. The Financier this
week says:
The striking: feature of the official statement
of the New York associated banks last week
was the decrease of $10,240,500 In loans, fol
lowing a" reduction of $11,413,000 In the pre
vious week, making the total decrease for tho
fortnight $21,053,500. The reduction last week
was probably due to liquidation of speculative
accounts on the Stock Exchange, and also to
some contraction of loan accounts because of
tho comparatively low condition of bank re
serves, notwithstanding the drain of money to
the South and "West for crop purposes. It may
be noted that the total loans are now only
$78,872,000 above the minimum of the year,
which was recorded on January 10.
The banks lost $2,013,200 .net cash during the
week, which amount is $1,312,1)00 below the
sum which 'was estimated upon the basis of
the traceable movements of money. This com
paratively slight discrepancy, however, may
easily be accounted for by the operations of
tho average system. The deposits were de
creased $14,020,000, an amount $1,475,000 great
er than the sum of the loss of cash and with
the reduction in loans; hence, the statement
Jails to balance. The required reserve was
diminished $3,057,400 through the decreased de
posits, and deducting from this amount the loss
of cash leaves $744,200 as the Increase In sur
plus reserve, which now Is $0,138,423; calcu
lated upon the basis of deposits, less those of
$30,021,700, the surplus Is $15,30S,850.
The loans are in excess of the deposits by
$30,430,000, against $32,050,800 in the previous
week. Indicating that the banks ore employing
to the fullest extent their available loan re
sources. Including capital. It may also be in
teresting to note that the cash holdings of the
banks, and likewise their deposits, are the
minimum of the year, the former being $2,013 -200
and the latter $14,020,600 smaller than the
amounts previously recorded. Circulation
shows the slight increase of $105,800 during
the week. The statement was undoubtedly
made on rising averages for cash.
The statement of averages of the clearing
bouse banks of this city for the week shows:
- decrease.

SAN FRANCISCO HOLDERS UNDER
NO PRESSURE TO SELL.
Grape Season Comes to an Abrupt
End-Choice Potatoes Firm
-Hops Are Duller.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14. (Special.)
Dried fruits in this market ore quiet. Quota
tions are no lower, but offers at a shade under
present figures would doubtless bo accepted.
Figs and evaporated apples aro In some de
mand, the latter having declined c during the
week, except for fancy. There is no great
pressure to sell anything, as stocks are mostly
in strong bands. Sales of prunes have been
mode during the week on a 22c basis for
outside stock, less 5 per cent. The raisin sit
uation Is unsatisfactory, as too .many are held
outside the combine, which aro offering below
association prices.
California walnuts are moving well at firm
prices. Almonds are slow, and prices seem
easier.
The grain market was "easier, owing to con
tinued rain, but wheat acted stubbornly, as
Chicago prices were firm. Bears made some
capital of a large quantity of barley which
arrived from the north on the steamer Montara.
The heavy storm brought the fruit trade al
most to a standstill, and prices were nominally
unchanged. The season for grapes came to an
abrupt close.
The firmness In potatoes and onions continues,
but only choice stock is wanted.
Hops "were quieter, but choice grades remain
firm.
Butter and cheese are easier, but no lower.
Eggs aro firmer. Receipts, 25,000 pounds but

Stock Raisers May Form Combine.
PENDLETON, Or., Nor. 14. It has now
developed that the stockralscrs of the great
Interior of Oregon, lncludlpg Grant. Harney
and other counties, havo -forrfed a beef
trust. This fact has leaked out through
O. N. Prather. of Klllbride. being In this
city In the Interest of the Interior cattle
men, looking for a retail market location.
It is tho intention of some cattlemen to
form a company with a capital of $00,000,
through which they will sell their cattle
direct to the retail butcher, and thus dis
pense with tho middleman. They will em
ploy regular traveling salesmen, who will
make regular trips to outside cities.
This action on tho part of the stockmen
has beon rapidly brought to a head this
Beason by the low prices offered by the Coast
and Sound buyers. There are buyers In the
country, but they are rrtrino- n-t., vt
last year's quotations, and even at those
prices iney will buy nothing but tho cattle
which aro in prime condition.

GOOD DEMAND TOR WHEAT.
Upward Movement Continues In This Grain
at Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 14. There was a good com-mlsslon-houso
demand for wheat, and the mar
ket, ruled Arm, after a slightly, easier opening.
Continued favorable weather. In the face of
predictions to the contrary, and rather disap
pointing cablet caused some selling at the
start, and initial sales of December were un
changed to Vi lower, at 7GXS7ffJ4c Outside
markets were all higher, however, and this
fact soon resulted In creating a better senti
ment here. Minneapolis reported sales of flour
there yesterday and an excellent demand for
cash wheat, and In consequence the Northwest
markets showed decided istrength. "The cash
demand here was also good. New York repott
ed the December option strong, and prices at
St. Louis showed big gains. Al these In
fluences were factors In causing a better de
mand. December sold up to TTHc, closing at
77S77c, a gain of Ue.
Corn had to contend with weather conditions,
which were most favorable for curing the new
crop. December closed sfiHc lower, at 42ci
Oats ruled steady on a fair demand from
commission-houses and shorts. December
closed a shade lower at 63 He

Professor J. L-. Bohannon's Cancer Doc
tor Co. ia now In Portland. We have
proved to the world that we can cure any
cancer before it poisons deep glands. A
lump in a woman's breast ls cancer. Any
lump anywhere is almost always cancer.
No doctor can draw the line so fino as to
tell whore a tumor ceases to bo a, tumor
and becomes cancer. Lumps or open sores
on the face, lip or any portion of the body
for six months Is cancer. Cancer may
give but little pain until cure is hopeless.
We have 30 years' practice and have per
manently cured more cancers than, any
doctor living. Why experiment with tho
swindling X-Ray until your case is hope
less? The X-Ray has many names, such
as Chemical X-Ray, Roentgen Ray or any
new name to attract attention. The X
Ray or knife never cures cancer. Wo were
here one and one-half years ago and
treated ani cured a number of persons,
some of whom you can see by coming
to our office. Others that were treated
with the X-Ray and others with the knifo
are dead, while our patients are well and
hearty. -Come and investigate.
We treat cancers of the tongue. Up or
woman's breast In one and one-half to
five minutes. One treatment is ordinarily
sufficient for a cure.
