NEW YOIIK. Oct. 30. ( SpcelaJ. ) Henry
Clews of the banking house of Clews U Co. ,
lu his review of Wall street off alls , says ;
Kvtiita of more than usuul Importance
have oveihuug Wall street during the last
week. There hah been , ut last , u decision
by the United States supreme cuurt on tin-
case of the Joint Tronic association , which
has a very vital bearing ou the intwt'a
of the railroads. Next , the 1'orls peace
cominlSBion has reached the most serious
phabCH of Its work the tjucstlons of who
Bhull assume the Cuban debt , and what dis
posal shall be made of the 1'hillpplno Is-
lauds. Next , the Fashoda affair lias taken
ou a very critical phase , with by no means
small possibilities that France and England
might find themselves speedily Involved In
hostilities. And again , the overthrow of
the French cabinet baa come under condi
tions very teillous to the Internal peace
of France , the more so as the Dreyfus case
has CQIUU up In u civil court ,
Little Concern Oicr KorelKii .MuUei-H.
The Stock cxchaiiRO has taken these con
ditions with comparative equanimity. A
drop of 1 per cent lu Hrltlsh cousola , though
attended with sales of some 30.0UO shares
of American stocKs , by London to New
Yoik , piodticed little ettcct on prices here ,
and the uay following isolations here ad
vanced about one point. The market seems
to bo toinpuiutlvoly little concerned abaut
foreign political Incidents , Indued such
events as may settu to suggest chances of
war have rather a stimulating eltect on
prices , on the principle that a European war
would increase the loielgu demand for our i
food product ! ; .
The wheat situation Is really the main
element of streiiKth In stocks. Within the
present month fully 25,000,000 bushels of
that grain has be-on engaged for oxpoit , and ,
lu bpite of the advance lu pi Ice , the foreign
demand hllll shows little abatement. The
cutting of fi eight rates tends to encourage
foreign purchase's , and It now looks as If
a largo portion of the 18'JS crop may be mar
keted before the 31st of December. The
freighting capacity of the railroads Is thus
taxed to Its utmost ; nml 'that ' Is a condition
which. In Wall istrcet. Is not easily neutral
ized by ad\erso factors.
The supiemo court decision has had little
perceptible effect upon the stock market for
the mison that the pooling association was
already a dead letter , and while the verdict
defines the legalities of the case and puts
an end to the possibility of Joint rates , It
makes the existing situation , as respects
earnings , no worte than It was before.
> V In-lit Movement Abroad.
There Is every prospect of this season's
exports of whtat equaling the extraordinary
mc/veuieiit of last year. Already the ship
ments have brought forward a heavy eup-
ply of export bills , which seems likely to be
fccpt up until the end of the year. The
disparity between the current rates for
money In London and In New York creates
a ready demand for exchange for the tem
porary umplo/incnt of balances , and thus
the rates for sterling are well sustained and
our creditor balance with Europe Is bring
ing us no gold ; about $2,000,000 however Is
coming from Australia by way of San Fran
cisco.
Outside the Stock exchange some solicitude
( a felt as to what may bo the outcome of
the sensitive relations between England and
Franco. War between two such powerful
nations , with the possibility that other coun
tries. might become Involved , Is not a mat
ter to which New York could be Indfifercnt.
One of 'tho ' first effects must be a sharp dis
turbance la all the money centers of the
world , the results ot which It Is. Impossible
to prejudge. England Is by far our largest
customer. Including the colonies , wo send
to the British dominions 70 per cent of our
Whole exports , and they send us one-third of
our entire Imports making a business of
close upon $900,000,000 between the republic
and the empire.
The possible disturbance of such a largo
volume of our ocean trade is a matter the
aero possibility of which la apt to make
both countries Uneasy. It would seem in
credible. however , that France will allow
thu dispute to run 'Into hostilities. In the
general estimate of public opinion , her
claim Is a very flimsy one. And , If It were
not , she so entirely lacks the qualities and
resources for utilizing barbarous populations ,
that the game would not bo worth her pow
der. Moreover she could have no chance
In war against the doubly powerful navy of
Great Britain , and would , In all probability ,
cbnio out of the struggle strlpt of the col
onies of which she takes so much account
but makes EO little use. Sober Frenchmen
foresee this so plainly that it seems reason
able to expect that Franco will finally take
a conservative course. The only change for
her being less prudent lies lu the possibility
that the military party may precipitate war
in order < o divert attention from the shame
brought upon the country by the false trial
ot Dreyfus , and also to save the nation from
a revolution which la a near possibility.
KHeet of Trnllle Drclxloii.
The Joint Truffle association decision by
the supreme court had but little apparent
effect In Wall street for one reason that It
was simply a repetition of the decision by
the same court In the TransmUsourl Tratllc
case , which was handed down pome itlmo ago.
The shock then was a very serious one ant
It discounted the present decision , as man }
of the railroad managers have been quite
positive lu their belief that the supreme
court would not bo likely to reserve Hself
Its first decision not only being very harsh
but all points being covered In most posi
tive and unmistakable terms. Besides , since
the transmlssourl case was decided the rail
roads have formed 'their ' alliances In a way
that is to all Intents and purposes an evasion
of the decision , while at the same time not
a legal violation of It. The decision was a
warning to them to prepare und bo ready
for a similar one to be rendered In the
Joint Tralflc association cose. All the rall-
roadc that have been connected with the
now pronounced illegal trafllc associations
luivo learned during their connection there
with the principles of the agreement whlcl
has kept harmony amongst them , eo that b >
common consent they will disband their or
ganizations , but will keep together Just 'the
same , and being In honor bound will live up
to the principles which originally brought
them together. This doubtless Is understock
to be the action that will be taken by the
various mllroad managers , and la so under
stood by Wtll street , hence the effect of the
decision In financial circles was wlthou
Berlous consequences.
There Is one method of meeting the Uultei
States supreme court decision by the rail
road ma.iaRvri 1 hev can form social club
at the MUlous great railroad centers am
there have CHPUU ! meetings and arrange i
mutual understanding as gentlemen do in
matters connected with social life. urn
thereby bo bound by word of mouth which
gentlemen recognize the tame as though In

tlie ralliojd muaufiers arc much perplexed

but tht'V claim that the roada are now so

when bublncss slackens off unless some
method la adopted to hold them togelh.-r

This Is sure to cce-ur with enterprising corn-
pcttllMJ loads lu dull times , but there la
uo danger of this now while all the roadi

U U very evident ll'nt the various cliques

MANCHESTER , Oct. 30. The market Iu {
week was extremely , firm , although naturally 1
there was less doing because suitable de
livery and price are no longer obtainable.
Cob yarns for prompt delivery were wanted ,
but rould not be obtained and bundles for
export were more quiet. The strong Indian
cloth demand , however , continues large , but
the bulk was turned down because1 prlco
limits were unacceptable. China took fair
lines during the week and the South
America and other small markets continue
buying moderately. A period of comparative
Idleness Is now expected , as production all
around Is engaged long Ahead.

NKW YOIIK , Oct 30. The Financier
The statement of the associated banks of
New York for the week ending October
29th shows another notable Incrfuco In the
various Items. Loans reflect a gain of $10.-
221,300 , making the total expansion for the
month of October almost $32,000.100. The
increase In cash for the week was $6,634,500 ,
made up principally of specie receipts. Thai
gj.-ln In cash and the loan expansion account
for the neck shows an Increase of $10,781,100
In deposits. The heavier deposits of course
raised the reset vo requirements , but not
enough to offset the cash gain. In conse-
( jucnco the surplus reserve of the liankn Is
$2,679,225 higher than for the previous wctfk
and stands nt $20,091,060 , or nearly $22,000-
000 moro than reported on September 17
last.
last.The
The changes that have occurred n'thlu ' ,
the past thirty days are well shown In the I
deposit Item , which In the time name ] has '
Increased over $59,000,000. Naturally those j
conditions reflect the completion ot the band
transaction nnd the effect of government
deposits nnd gold Imports. Of greater In
terest , however , Is the effect which has hern
produced In the money market , rates having
declined to low figures after a period of
partial stringency. Theplontlfulnesa of
funds hat ) led to Investment In sterling bills ,
but the revival In stock exchange specula
tion recently has led to n better demand for
funds. The outlook , under present condi
tions , favors an easy money market. The
natural drift of money now that crop neces
sities ) hove been met Is In favor of New
York nnd oven with a bunlness revival the
supply will exceed the demand. It Is true
that European disturbances will temporarily
check gold Imports , but the domestic supply
of money Is so great that nothing short of
unforeseen disaster can forc a return to
what was once regarded as thi * normal rate.

CHICAGO , Oct. 29. An Improved export
demand today and stormy weather through
out the northwest caused a recovery from
an enrly decline In wheat prices. Decem
ber closed unchanged to 1-Sc lower com
pared with yesterday's final figures. Corn
left off a shade higher. Oats advanced Uc.
Pork gained 5c , lard 24c ! and ribs were , un
changed.
Wheat pot a weak start from an apparent
disposition at Liverpool to chime In with
the bearish sentiment prevailing here. The
firmness of English government securities
also contributed by their strength to the
desire to sell wheat here at the opening' .
Prices continued to drop throughout the
forenoon despite considerable buying
against puts that the opening decline
brought Into play. Northwert receipts
were liberal , 1,411 cars , but a snow storm
was reported' to be prevailing ; in the Da-
kotap , which created apprehension of bad
roads and a consequent falling oft In re
ceipts In that replon next week. Some buyIng -
Ing of short wheat was done , because of
that possibility.
The seaboard reported a fair demand for
export and New York advised Hal B of
thlrty-llvo boatloads , of which one cargo
was for Russia. The week's shipments ot
wheat and flour from both coasts were
equal to 7,650.100 bu. , compared with 6,811-
000 bu. the similar week of last year. The
day's clearances from Atlantic ports were
equal In wheat and flour to 813,000 bu. Near
the end ft large line of cash wheat was dis
posed of here for export to the United
Kingdom right at the market price. When
that became known the sentiment among
traders quickly changed. In the endeavor
to cover that followed the price forged
ahead and the early loss was all recovered.
December opened l/tc lower at G5 7-8Q6SC ,
advanced to CG 1-Se , declined to 65 B-8c. ral
lied to 66 l-S&C6Vic and closed at 66 l-8c ,
buyers.
Flno weather and lower cnblen weakened
corn at the start. Moderate selling- was
brought about through these features and
In the face of a very limited demand the
offerings easily depressed prices. Later ,
however , the market became strong on a
good cash business und reports from the
country that the weather was threatening
a return of conditions unfavorable to the
curing of corn. Near the close the buying-
became more pronounced and prices wound
up at a slight advance. Receipts were 257
cars. December began \ic down at 32g >
32 l-8c. declined to 31 7-Sc , recovered to
32 3-8i32I/4c and closed at 32 3-Sc , buyers.
Oats derived their strength from the firm
ness In the shipping situation. Cash held
at a BtronK premium over May and there
was a fair speculative trade. In futures. Re
ceipts were 206 cars. May started a shade
lower at 24Viif2l 3-Sc , sold at 24'ic , then
advanced to 24 5-Sc , the closing price.
Provisions ruled fairly steady on a light
speculative trade and liberal hog receipts.
It was reported that 2,500,000 Ibs. of ribs
were disposed of yesterday on October con
tracts , but contrary to expectations this
announcement did not have much Influence
on the market. January pork opened 214c
up at $9.00 , robe to S9.02& declined to $ S. 5 ,
then recovered to J9.02V4 , the closing price.
The range In lard and ribs was small.
Estimated receipts for Monday : Wheat ,
376 cars ; corn. 314 cars ; oats , 214 cars ; hoga ,
37.000 head.

CA IT LB There were only a few loads of
cattle reported In the yards today , and still
less that were of any account. There was
not enough of anything to make a market ,
and the day's trade In cattle could be
summed up In a very few words , It was a
nominally steady market , without feature
of any importance.
This has been a week of very light re
ceipts at UI.H point , as will be noteu from
tlie figures given at the head of the column.
The- total for the wee-k foots up the
smallest of any week since the early part
of September. At the same time that the
receipts have been small there has been a
lack of quality , there being a general
dearth of really choice cattle of any kind.
This IB the cleaning up season , the time
when the range men are making final ship
ments of the odds and ends left over from
previous shipments , and when nil through
the eastern and middle states the small
farmers arc disposing of their surplus stock
which they do not propose to feed through
the winter. As regular as the season rolls
around the market Is sure to break under
the influence of this clcaning-up process ,
which fills eastern consuming centers full
of meat and brings on a temporary glut.
Accordingly , the demand for fat cattle ,
especially cornfcd cattle , was light all the
week at every large market In the country ,
buyers giving aa an excuse for not taking
hold more freely that the coolers were full
of meat and that it was not going Into
consumption very rapidly. The break
started at Chicago , and has reached to all
the markets , so that at the close of the
week fat cattle are generally 25e lower , and
In extreme cases 3040c lower than last
week. Such cattle aswere selling at $4.90 ®
5.10 are now going at about $4.t < i > ® 4.W.
Probably a fancy drove of cattle , such as
would have brought $5.30 , might sell up
to $5.10S6.15 , but it would have to be fancy
to go above the $5.00 mark. Grass beef
cattle sold oft the latter part of the week ,
but there were not many of that klnvl re
ceived here.
Cows and heifers were good sellers dur
ing the early part of the week , but they
broke under the Influence of the decline
on fat steers , and are l&S2oc lower for the
week. The market was very slow during
the last two or three days and draggy on
all but the most desirable , kinds.
The small receipts were beneficial to the
trade in Block cattle and feeders , as it
enabled buyers to get the surplus cattle
out of the way. and the week closed with
very little stuff left over. Fancy stock
sold as high as any time , but a very large
proportion of the offerings consisted of
medium to common stuff , with large pro
portion of trash. A good many cattle on
the southern and Texas order have been
received , with no lack of scrub stock of
all kinds. This surplus of common cattle
has been a detriment to the market all the
week , as It has kept the yards cluttered
up , and has had a tendency to keep the
market weak on even good kinds. It has
be n a good week for buying , and many
feeders have taken advantage of the low
prices to fill their feed lots.
HOGS Trade began this morning with
only about fourteen loads on the market
nnd about forty-eight reported back , which
was a light run even for a Saturday. One
week ago there were 1C9 loads , two weeks
ago eighty-six and three weeks ago 101.
Enrly reports from other markets showed
values to be fully Hteady.
At this point trade opened up fairly
active , with a few loads selling at from
2' c to 5c higher ; choice light hogs as high
as $3.621,4 , and choice heavy hogs touched
S3 60. The bulk , however , of the early sales
of the heavier weights sold at $3.52 03.55.
After the first spurt there was not as much
activity on the market , sellers holding for
the advance nnd buyers generally unwil
ling to go above yesterday's prices. As a
result the market was a trllle dull on the
close with the advance of the morning
fully lost.
A glance at the figures at head of column
will show that the total receipts for the
week were the smallest of the month. In
addition this was the low week of the
month. The week opened with values about
steady with the break at the close of the
previous w ek. On Tuesday the market
was a little stronger , that proving to be the
high day of the week , but on Wednesday
all the advance , and more , too , was lot.
Thursday's market was still lower , the
hogs selling on that day at the lowest point
touched In a good many weeks. On Friday
there was a slight reaction , but the week
cloned with values a shade lower than the
previous week.
SHEEP The sheep market was In very
Fatlsfactory condition during the most of
the week. All kinds of mutton grades of
both theep and lambs were In good demand
all the week and buyers , In order to get
them , were willing to pay firm prices. One
thing that helped to hold up the market at
this point was the fact that really desira
ble killers were far from plentiful , so that
when Chicago broke 25o on nil grades on
Friday , this market did not respond very
readily to the downward tendency of values
at other selling points. However , the break
made the market flow for the last two
days of the week , as buyers were backward
about paying the prices asked by holders ,
which they claimed were far too high ns
compared with other markets. Under the
Influence of the dullness thus enforced the
market weakened somewhat and for the
1 week could be quoted all of 10Jfl3c lower for
killing grades.
i Feeding stock was In good demand all
, the week and anything attractive met with
ready sale on every day of the jvvoek.
Common kinds of old ewes and very small
limiha were not overly free sellers , but
anything good moved right off and at fully
steady prices.
