There la an undertone of strength underlying the entire livestock market with the possible exceDtlon of steers. and In the latter Una the chances ara qulta good for an Improvement within the next week or ten days. While pack- era still retain quite liberal holdings of steers, tne available supplies are not nearly so neavy as tney were, ana in consequence the pressure upon the cattle market Is not no severe. Sheen are holdlnr about the same as during the past month, trade being dull and alow, with small arrivals and big packers not Usposed ,to enter the mar- "I expect an Improvement In the cattle market soon," said Lee M. Lacey of Hunt ft Lacey today. "The packers atUl have stocks on hand, but It won't be long before they will give out and buyera will again be forced to enter the market. Hog prices for the future will depend upon the attitude of the east, but just at present they are mov ing on weu at prices, tmeep are quiet." ; Steers ara Still Bull. There Is stilt a dull tone and trade In the local market for steers." says Tom Benson of Benson St Gould. "Pack ers are till showing a surplus of steer holdings, and it will be somewhere about the 20th of the month before any Improvement in prlcea is likely or pos sible. -Hogs are moving off better, but the price la unchanged. There Is no change in the - sentiment regarding sheep." A year ago today-all lines or live stock were weak, with a drop of 25c each in the bog and sheep markets. No change in cattle.

Specu lators were very much disap pointed today when they failed to receive the announcement of an Increased payment on South ern Paclflo and Union Pacific. The regular dividends were de clared on both securities. This brought a sharp reaction in the stock market. NeWTork. Nov. 11. In the face of a generally- weak market, with lower prices the rule, the action of the specu lative trade in bidding up Colorado fiAi,thain .fimmnn t rwl R V WAS a WOllU PT. This" Is the first time Colorado South ern has been active for some time, the activity indicating that some one was. absorbing the stock. For the day this security shows an advance of 3 points. The real excitement today, however, was In the Harriman shares. For some time the trade has been fed upon numerous reports to the effect that the Southern Pacific would pay an extra dividend, but at the meeting today the former payment was again decided upon. This brought about a sharp re action in all stocks. Southern Pacific being weakest and lowest. It regained a large poratlon of the decline previous to tne close. The market In aeneral closed sharply down. In London today American shares were generally firm at advanced prices. RaRge of New York prices furnished by Overbeck Se Cooke Co.: DESCRIPTION. n If- Am.

The cause of the breach be tween the two leading producers can only be surmised, but It is current gossip In the trade that Arbuckle Bros, have had a fall ing out with the new administra tion of the American Sugar Re fining company. It Is said that an agreement reached some years ago between the late Persi dent Havemeyer and Arbuckle Bros, has terminated and that the latter declined to renew It SAN FRANCISCO GRAIN MARKET San Francisco, Nov.
