8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : $ J2INESDAY , OCTOBER 18 , 1893. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Speculation Yesterday Was Chiefly on Local Account and Limited. FLUCTUATIONS WERE FREQUENT LATE rrorlomi * Avorngctl W nl < nnil Oloicil with IJeLllliP III ttin .Innniirjr Option * , wltli 1'nrli the Mnk- c t I'riiilni t. ' CUJCAOO , Oct. 17. It was a choppy dny In the wheat pit. Speculation was chiefly on local account mid the nmrkct changed from Tfeak to strong more than once , but left off weak nt 3 c iiecllno for December nm\ from Jfi ) to ? tfc decline for May. Charters for 810,000 bu. of corn gave that nuirkot a flnn tone iiml It closed n shade lilphtr thnn on the dny before. Provisions averaged weak and closed with declines of from lOc to We In the January options , with pork the weakest product. Wheat , nt the opening , \\ai about the same ns yesterday's closing , and Bold off from } { a to % c , advanced about % o , then declined < ! ( fo , became stroiiRor , and with only alight lluctuatlons advanced from Jfc to Xct eased off J c , ana closed within } { a 6t the bottom. Kiirly English cables were sUrniiKcr , and this had a strcnifthvnlnff effect , but operators Boomed to lack con fidence , and with fnlr offerings the mantel lost part on the early advance , lucre was apparently good Investment buying for May delivery , winch resulted in the widening out a trJllu In the premium for De cember. Ono of the chlof elements of uncertainty was tlio silver situation In the scnato. Tlicro was pretty fair realizing in the late decline. T-.ato cables , especially tlic continentals , Avcro reported weak , ex cept Hcrlln , which was quoted higher. The late Liverpool market through private source ! * uns reported castor. Eastern European shipments for the week were larger und the English visible supply was reported as showing an increase of 8513,000 bu. bu.Corn Corn opened rather , lower , but a little pressure- soil c.iuaud a decline of fromtijfc to 9fif. Durlnir the latter Dart of the session the feeling was steadier and prices ralllcu from ? ifo to } o on the r-ravalence of n good shipping demand , and the market in a gen eral way closed rather firm , Uuslness was only fair. There was good covering by shorts In the oats crowd and buying on Now York orders. JV firmer feeling prevailed , prices advancing from i c to ) c for May and from } { o to j/o on the near futures , but May receded % o from the top. The receipts were less than anticipated. Provisions were neglected. Packers were apparently disinclined to do moro than hold the market suniclently to prevent any of the great decline in the cash pits. Prices sagged off in sympathy with a lOc decline in hogs. Fluctuations , such an thcro were , resulted mainly from sympathy with the wheat market. The receipts for tomorrow are estimated at : Wheat , 14ears ! ! ; corn,525cars ; oats,204 cars ; hogs. 24,000 head.

Hriiry Cell's Aniiiml Itrport un the Crup Cnndltiini. Nr.w Ont.KAss , Oct. 17.-Tho jearly cotton report of Henry Null was given to the press this afternoon. It predicts a minimum for the crop of 1803.4 of 7,700,000 b.ilcs. The nnst crop was such a total falluri'.out'-liloof Texas , ho buys , that It sstuns vciy unllUely that planters mild find It In their power to much IncmiM ! the acreage , but tliuio Is now a coiu'oususof ( iiliilin ) that the aciuugti planted exceeds thatui last vrnr on tin average of about G pt-r cunt for the whole country. As the actual growth of hist ymriuxi'luslvo of old cotton ) was G , 150 bales , adding G per cent for acreage would give us ueioo of 0,850 bales o\cu on n priMlucllon per acre no belter than luM year.Vhllu thu cinp did not make tin early or > ory promising Btart , yet a foAomulo July and August Kiivn very heavy nultiigu , which from hot and foiclng weather , with Intervals of rain , Ims como rapldlv to maturity. The plant Is not large , but It U so welt fililted that there Is already moro cotton matured and open than hiHt year's whole crop amounted to. Tlicro has boon bonm development , of top oiops since the September rains , \\hlchniay trhti u hinall addition If fiost be delayed. I'rom this , however , out.sulu of Texas nntmuch need bo expected , as except. In Texas It Is qutto unusual for t-i'pli'tnhi'r blooms , to mature. Niw Oitf.iN .

There was a fairly active speculation on the Stock exchange todny , nnd largo blocks of Distilling , Head ing , Sugar and Burlington changed hands. But it vas a brokers' market almost entirely , and the dealings , even during the brief periods of strength , which served merely to stem the downward movement temporarily , were feverish and irregular. Tlicro was at no time during the day what might bo called strong buying except In Distilling , which wns supported from the inside , and which was bolstered up by the repeated story that the Distribution company had been brought to terms and that favorable congressional action was to be anticipated. The stock closed at UIJ . a decline off per cent. Heading declined steadily from the opening onher.vy selling. The close was within 1 } per cent of the best figures of the day , but 1 per cent below yesterday's final sales. Sugar was favorably nffccted by reports that the company was in the market as u large money lender nnd advanced 1 % per cent , only , however , to quickly lese the improvement and closed at a decline of l * per cent from the highest point. The gen eral market was stronger and higher at the opening- and un advance of 1 } { was made , in which the Industrials ware leaders. A sellIng - Ing movement was developed , however , within the first fifteen minutes of business , under the influence of which the values depreciated , nnd with an occasional feeble rally the tendency of prices was downward during the rest of the day , the close being heavy at declines ranging from } to 2 per cent , the latter in Chicago , Bur lington & Quincy ; 1 % per cent in Hock Isl and ; 1 } per cent iu Manhattan cousols and American Tobacco ; 1 % per cent in Chicago Gas. General Electric , Lake Shore , Now York and Northern ; l percctitin Missouri Pacific , and 1 per cent in Reading. Some few shares showed advances , including > Luclcdo Gas , 1 % per cent : Wheeling & Lake Erie com mon , 1J per cent ; Wheeling & Lake Erie preferred and Lackawanua , 1 per cent. Pa- cillc Mail opened at u decline of lj > per cent , but rose 1 > I'er cent at the closo. Dos Molncs & Fort Dodge preferred sold at 20 , an advance of U per cent since the last sale. The monetary situation continues to im prove. Currency in largo amounts has reached the banks from outside points during the past three days , mainly from Chicago , and fully $2,000.000 In currency has boon re ceived since last Friday. Call loans today are quoted at 2 per cent and time money nt 4 and 0 percent. Commercial paper is un changed. Sterllnor exchange is easier and the leading dealers have reduced the rates of actual business in bankers' bills } per cent , while commercial bills nro down tf to % per cent , although the receipts nro small , but the inquiry has dropped off in u larger ratio. The volume of business Is contracted and the indications are not in the line of u firmer market.

So far this week compared with last there has been an increase of about 2ROO , cnttlo , no change In ) hogs and a decrease ot nearly 4,000 sheep. ' > - - - The cattle markfi ] was slow and dull throughout , but prices \vero llttlo If any lower than on Monday. Receipts wore lib eral and there was the usual scarcity of beef cattlo. The supply was sufficiently large , however , to spare buyers for local dressed beef houses any anxiety on tno sub ject or filling their orders. Fair to good 1,050 to 1,400-1 b corn-fed na tive steers sold at M.25 and $4.05 and at least one bunch would have brought $ o or better If It had sold. The western cattle included quite a fo\v very decent beeves und prices ranged from S3 to $3.UO for fair to choice stock , while there was some hero good enough to soil at considerably over $1. The feeling was weak and trading slow throughout. Cows according to buyers sold nt steady to stronger prices , while according to sellers prices ruloJ steady und weaker. There were not over .fifty loads on &alo and the movement was rather sluggish , poor to choice cows and heifers selling nt from $ L to $2.80 , with the bulk of the decent stuff at around SI. 80 and 12.2. ) . Calves were in good demand and steady at from jaSi to J4.50. Them was no particular change in the market for rough stock and common to good bulls , oxen and stags sold at from $1,50 to t'J.50. The stocker and feeder trade was fairly active with not much change to uoto. Good to choice heavy feeders sold perhaps a shade stronger , while light common stock cattle were not in much demand , although hardly noticeably lower. The demand was very good from nil sources nnd a largo volume of business was transacted. Good to choice feeders are quoted at from f3 to $ y,50 , fair to good at from ? 2.00 to $3 , with common and inferior stuff at around f3 to $2.50. Uopro- soutatlvo sales : UnKBBED BEBF. No. Av. I'r.
