Wheat started strong on hlghec cable rju
tatlonu from Liverpool nnd nn Intlmntl
from there that the advance was In cons
qucncc of bad reports of the Argent !
crop. The receipts In the northwest we
onry in iderate. A somewhat easier tone
the second cables cnused some realizing <

cables ascribed the strength there to llg
stock.- ) , but the crowd here took their I
splrntlon chiefly from these clrcumstanci
Which mentioned the damage to the Argc
tine wheat as the cause cf the Liven"
firmness. The Atlantic port clearances we
light. Primary market receipts aggrcgat
707,000 bu. for the two days. The belief w
dulte general thnt the Increase In the v
tble nupnly for this week would exceed th
of the week before , nnd on account of su
belief there were always plenty of sells
o'n ' the bulge's. The closing cnblcgrnms w <

The corn market ruled llrm all the tli
and strong part of the time. It opened
Mo advance for May on Wednesday's cli
Ing quotations nnd made n further . ' . c gi
before It met with enough sellfng to caust
serious reaction. The receipts were not l
from the estimates , numbering SIS cars. T
weather was unfavorable for the gradl
and the fact 'of only SO cars ot the 800
epectvd passing Into the contract grade e
phaslzotl the point last referred to. 'I
V cstlmatcd receipts of 730 cars for tomorr
" caused some realizing on the advance. 8h

The oats market attracted but little
tentlon. Klevator people were buying qu
freely , but aside from that locnl part
none were prominent. A slightly- firmer f (
Ing prevailed , Influenced by thestretii
ln-ccrn. May started nt 32 > ic , sold up
32tfc , nnd closed there.
Provisions were dull but firm. The op
Ing price -of pork was nt from VJfcc to
advance on closing quotations of Wedn
day , nnd lard nnd ribs were higher In p
portion. The business dene was entirely

conspicuous only from their nbsence. 1
packers were selling In n small wny nt
advance , nnd In the end there was no i
preclnhle chnnges In prices as compn
with the latest quotation : ) of Wednesday.

FIUDA-Y. Nov. 30.
Supplies were not very lienvy today , S
cars In all. The Thanksgiving holiday ill :
organized business to a great extent th
week , and compared with last the fallln
off In receipts amounted to about 6,000 ca
tie , 3),000 hogs and 1,000 sheep.
There was an active demand both froi
dressed beef men nnd shippers for dcslrab
fat cattle , r.nd the few of that descrlptlc
hero readily changed hand.i at a shat
stronger prices. Anything1 , In fact , thi
killers could use was sold to better at
vantage than on Wednesday , but the thl
stuff that neither feeders nor killers wantt
wns slow sale and weak.
Cow stuff was In tolerably liberal suppl ;
very fair demand nnd quotably stead ;
perhaps a Bhade stronger on the more di
slrable grades. The calf market woa du
nnd lower , with prices off We to U th
week. Hulls , stags , etc. , soltl ut ubol
itendy figures.
Stackers nnd feeders sold ns they did c
Wednesday. The supply wns not largo n <
was the demand what would be called vli
orous , still holders had no dllllculty I
selling good , smooth , fleshy stock for fir ;
prices. Hough , thin stockers were no ensli
to work err even nt prevailing low value
A fair volume of business was done , doc
to choice feedera nre quotable nt from $2.
to $3.25 , fair to good from $2.35 to $2.GO. ni
common grades from $2.25 down. Ilepr

VOTING BY MACHINE.
Noir York's Constitution 1'crmlts 1'xpoi

Among the Important changes IntroJuc
n New York by the adoption of the amend
constitution at the recent elcct'lon Is 'the t
moval of that section of the old Instrumc
which required that elections should bo 1
ballot. " This action permits the Inlrodu
tlon of the voting machine , which has be
successfully tested at various places In t
state , If the legislature provides the ncct
sary legislation. The attitude of the N <
York press toward the proposed adoption
the voting machine Is exceedingly frlendl
says the Philadelphia Ledger. In fact , t
extensive test to which the machine has be
subjected seems to establish to the point
demonstration that the device would be ,
the long run , a much cheaper method of vc

ms become the vogue In many states , n
that It is more accurate and convenient th ;
any voting system which has bsen on tr ]
n this country.
When the Australian ballot system w
adopted In Pennslyvanld It became nccessa
n many counties to Increase the votl
divisions two and three-fold. A single votl
machine has recorded without error a thot
and votes at ono election , a capacity 1
registering votes which would allow a vc
decided reduction of election precincts , wl

vlilch came In Fight In the three niontlm
wiling December I would have paid n3
mich debt ns the 6,371,000 bales nt the prlco
his year , but tvon that would not explain
he large marketing , unless the crop was
arger.Vhrnt Is 1'4 cents higher than a
veelt ngo , nnd western receipts Btlll exceed
nst year's , amounting since July 1 to 103-
00,000 bushels , against 100,800,000 bushels last
car , while exports from all ports have been
about 21,000 buslu-ls smaller. The smaller
uantttlps received last year paid morJ dObts
nnbottt JSOftO,003 than the larger quantity
his year , and ns wheat sold for the Ilrst
line below CO cents Just after harvest It may
laturnlly bo held bnrlc for better returns.
3orn has advanced n fraction , receipts being
argor than a year ago , nnd on the whole
he outcome for farmers has not so Improved
as to promise larger buying by the west
and south. The great Industries fairly main-
nln the production previously reported , but
cannot bo expected to Increase It nt this
season. A few more Iron works have gene
nto operation nnd the demand Is reported
nrger , but there Is n distinct weakness In
prices , especially nt Plttsburg , nnd Hessc-
ner. Iron billets , nails nnd some structural
'orms nre quoted lower. The rail comblnn-
lon has agreed to n reduction of $2 per ton
for the next year. Coke contracts nre being
made for the first quarter cf 1895 nt current
rates.
Failures this week havn been In the
1'nlled States 2S3 , against 271 last year , and

Nn Central Improvement In Iinluoss la
thnVct mid South.
NEW YOIIK , Nov. 30-Bradstreet's to
morrow -will say : There Is no general or
radical Improvement In business nt the
south , the west , or the northwest , but In
.ho central -western states , nnd particularly
at some Important cities In- the middle nnd
northwestern states , the reverse Is true , a
material gain In demand for many season
able Btaplcn having shown Itself , with a
corresponding Increase In volume of goods
distributed und orders for future deliveries.
This was Independent of the staple * to the
; rade In certain lines due to npproachtnR
tolldays , nnd In spite of the check to Iho
. 'olume of general business within the week
paused by the Thanksgiving holiday. A
sharp revival In prices was shown by quota
tions for some grades of lumber , but moro
[ lurtlculnrly for cotton , wheat , oats nnd
lard , Improving prices of the first two ot
which having had an Influence for nood.
Decreases In prices and naval stores are
reported , but quotations for structural Iron ,
rice , whisky , tobacco , porlc , coffee nnd slignr
arc steady. It should be explained that
rails are now held at J22 , the lowest prlco
on record , and billets and pig Iron are re
spectively t2 nnd $1.GO below England quota
tions. At Chicago pig Iron dealers nre tryIng -
Ingto force an advance , but nt St. I ouls
Iho market Is without life and the price Is
low. Cottcns arc weaker since the cut made
by a New York house. A stimulating In-
( luence of n purely statistical nature Is the
decrease of 2,008,000 bushels of wheat In the
quantity afloat for and In store In Europa
last week , thus nearly , though not quite ,
recovering the Increase of 2,128.000 bushels
of wheat available In the United States nnd
Canada last week. Exports of wheat ( and
flour as wheat ) , both coasts , amounted to
2.C37.000 bushels for this week , against 3.312-
XW bushels last week and 2,110,000 bushels In
the corresponding week ono year ago , 4.G33-
XX ) bushels In the last week In November ,
1832. and as compared with G.662,000 bushels
In that week of 1891. Data presented by
Hradstreet's point to the United States hav
ing exported about 05,000,000 bushels of
wheat ( flour Included ) Blnce. June 30 , nnd to
our having 85,000,000 bushels available for
export during the next seven months , not
withstanding the alleged excessive homo
demand this year. Speculation In the New
York market displays llttls response to the
success of the government bond Issue , the
Influence of the large oversubscription being-
overcome by the failure of foreign Intcresta
to obtain any considerable share of the new
Issue. Silver is demoralized by sellers of
eastern bills on the part of the Japanese
government , coupled with fears that Japan
may Insist upon n war Indemnity from
China In gold and not In silver . There Is
an Increased demand for funds nt Chicago ,
notably from packers.
