DEALINGS XOT QUITE FREE FE0M MANIPULATION. Banking Interests Not Conspicuous in Dealings Liquidation Seems Absent New York. Oct. Stocks recovered rigorously again to-day. the last price showing advances of 2 to 3 points for the principal active stocks.

The dealings were highly professional, and the movement jsjwas not tree from suspicion of manlpu-fJQ hat the effect seemed to be, for some reason, more cheering upon sentiment than the rather forcible lifting of prices on Tuesday. There may have been some buying for support in to-day's market also, but the great banking Interests, vers not so conspicuous In the dealings. On the other hand, an overextended short Interest was a very Important factor In lifting prices. The opening dip In Pennsylvania and In New Tork Central was attributed to bearish manipulation. Louisville seemed to suffer from the liquidation of an account, and pressure upon that stock reappeared from time to time during the day.

While the demand for stocks seemed to come largely from the short Interest, as Indicated by the large Borrowing demand In the loan crowd last night, the rising level of prices brought no sign of the liquidation which has been so persistent and urgent for a long time past. SENTIMENT INFLUENCED. It was this fact that had the most de- tdslve Influence upon sentiment, notwithstanding the recognition of the fact that a. very small outside demand was. repre- ttf da- dealings.

These reached about the same aggregate as those of yesterday. London helped somewhat toward the advance, the turn of the month there having relaxed the money market considerably and led to some Investment buying or consols, which had a good recovery. The Bank of England statement did not make a strong showing, but the fact that the bank rate was not advanced and the absence of failures which were feared caused a cheerful sentiment. A notable feature of the day was the violent break of about SO nolnts in rfmar sterling here under pressure of very large offerings of commercial bills and dearth of demand. Large wheat clearances were reported for the day.

and the completion of the cotton corner led to considerable commission-house buying In that market. The establishment of normal conditions In the eoton market Is expected to have very Important results In the outward move ment oi mar. staple, ana una lea to very free offerlnes of cotton bills In the ex change market. The early demand for stocks was especially noticeable amongst the coalers, which were helped by the gAj strong statement of set earnings for An-f gust by The Lehigh Valley and the arfmls-slon of K. H.

The offering of specifications by the Pennsylvania Company for work on Its terminal project had an effect on the United States Steel stocks, as this work Involves a large requirement for steel products.

Natural relief was felt that the preparation for the October dividend and Interest disbursements have been completed, while the Government bond redemptions and revenue deposit operations are yielding handsome returns to the money market, promising continued exemption from stringency. Even time money was called sllgnUy easier, although not quotably changed, and the Western demand for currency seems to be still deferred.

SUMMARY OFST. LOUIS MARKETS? '4t From a speculative standpoint there was plenty of action in yesterday's grain mar-ii ket. Both tho bears and the bulls had a fling at the game, with the latter contingent? in control at the close. At the opening there was no encouragement for tho buyers. Tho outside demand was extremely light and Liverpool and other foreign marketa were weak ami lower.

Weather conditions were generally favorabiu ami the little crop news received was distinctly bearish. Large quantities of long stuff were thrown on lh market on this shotting, with buyers holding out for concesebms and forcing pi-lev to a lower leveL Afler the early rush to sell the market was dull until the hour, when there was a complete reversal. Reports of heavy acceptances for shlpi ment abroad and prospects of a general drop In temperatures alarmed the shorts, wlioy hastened to cover. Ituying was brisk until the close. Corn had no independent strength.

The feeling was decidedly weak at the openings ami continued so until the advance In wheat caused a sympathetic upward movement In the coarse grain. Receipts were again heavy and export shipments were light. Dec. wheat opened SS'ic off and closed 'JtfJSic up. Dec.

corn opened oft and closed 1-lSc up. Dec oats closed He off. Receipts of produce were In fair volume, with prices of fruits and vegetables generally steady. Ivwal securities were easy. United Railways preferred and Lincoln Trust were tho weak spots.

4. yesterday's bonk clearings were J7.3T,Z3. balances Discount rates wero. steady between and 6 per cent. Spot cotton was unchanged in the local market.

WHEAT VALUES ADVANCE AFTER EARLY DECLINE. CORN FUTURES dXSE WITH SMALL Shorts Rush to Cover on Strong Bullish Export Statistics in the Last Hour. After rather brisk selling, both wheat and corn rallied toward the end of the session and closed higher. Wheat was again the strong spot of a fairly active market. At the start sentiment seemed to be all bearish.

Heavy receipts and weaker cables caused a sharp decline, and the selling side was popular during the first hour. Near the close it became apvarent that a big short Interest had been created. Prospects of colder weather and heavy clearances caused a rush to cover, which carried prices well above the low point. Dec wheat opened Sfi'-ic off and sold at: esc. t3S.c isv.
