L Henry Cluwn , head til the hanking house of Henry Clews & Co. , itritcH of the situation In Wall street : in Wall street , as In nil other branches of iniKlneyg , everything Is still held In mores or lei's suspense until thu outcome of the cle-etlon htH : been declared. Nevertheless , uy to Thursday , there has been no Inter ruption to the growing llrmni ss In the i-locl : inarlcel , nnd prices made a furlher advaneo of 1 to 3 points , .due. ns much to the pro- teetlvo precautions of the "bears" as to the growing confidence of tlio "bulls , " and In no small measure to the exceptional Htrr-ngth of Americans at London. Thurs day morning nn apparently preroncerted iittnck was made along this entire line , at tended with a marking up of thu rate of Interest on cull lo.ins to as high as ino per pent IIT annum ; and this had the effect e > f forcing out monk holders and cauxlng a fall In prices of 1 to 2 points ; otherwise the Hurry seems to hnvo had no particular slg- nlilrnnco ; nor did It bring out any largo amount of stock. The pressure | n call mom y appears to have been paused by largo p.iymints having to be made on November 1 , to provide for which the banks and trust companies had to call In heavy amount ! ) of demand loans before Suturd.iy. To re lieve the pressure , some of thebank.t yes terday , by a common agreement , placed tl. < dr spare funds In charge of an agent to be used for easing the emergency. On Monday - day this special stringency should disap pear. London was a free buyer of stocks through thli flurry. In the gold movement there has been noth ing to materially affect the tone of biiKlnes * here. Some moderate amounts of the metal have been engaged In London for shipment 10 New Vork ; but here the rates for ster ling bills have not yet become completely adjusted to lust week's advance In the Hank of upland's rate of discount , and at the moment. Imports of gold would not yield any profit , but rather a slight loss. It Is not generally taken Into account , however , Hint within the last sixty days a tiulto e-on- nlder.ible sum of sterling bills have been boiiiht upon speculation. IIP a means of bridging over the supnosed risks of , a pos sible premium on gold until after the elec tion. Had this exchange gone forward It would have Increased correspondingly the Imports of gold ; but It now constitutes a withheld creditor clement In the exchanges , nnd ns the bills maturewhMi may be ex pected from this time forward they will add so much to the factors calculated to bring god ! this way. Another Influence tending to check the current supply of ex port bills has been the hesitation about the future price of wheat , concerning which there It some dlffeience of opinion both hero nnd In foreign mir'ets. : The best foreign opinion , however , appears to be that there Is milllclcnt real cause for the ilse In this Htnple. and that the higher prices will bent nt least maintained for the present crop ; so that a revival of the export demand for wheat may be viewed as among the proba bilities of the near future. In this view It neenis likely that Importations of gold may be e-arlv resumed. Tnere Is , moreover , the pc'fllhlllty that the result of the election may Induce considerable exports of our se curities to Hurotip ; but upon that we cannot nt present count with any certainty , as tliu condition of the foreign money market Is not favorable to new speculations. OKNKItAL niSR LOOKKD FOR II Is generally conceded that the result of Tuesday's election will be a general rise In prices. The rcncon why that antlelpallon has not already caused more of nn ad vance and why It pirmltted the fall above noted Is nonu'what of n mystery. Or dinarily , Important expected events are discounted by Wall street In advance : and In the present case , there has been some rise In prle-es. but In the common estimate at least not at all proportioned to what such an Important event as thn defeat of the sliver agitation has seemed to warrant. There appear to have- been three1 prin cipal Intliicnccii at work which may ac count for this exception to tlio common rule In speculative operations. ( I ) Thcro has nrvcr bren such an Indisposition to discount probabilities about the future as then ; Is In this particular matter ; largely because. In the event of the country going In favor of free silver , the consceiucnces would be so extraordinarily serious as to nmount to much more than an ordinary speculative risk. (2) ( ) The resolution to do nothing In anticipation of the election has become universal In business , and Is ndhered to with remarkably persistent uni formity ; and the fact that this attitude ban been unbtokeii outside Wall street makes It the more crnlllil * that the Slock ex change has been restrained by a like dis inclination to operate , (3) ( ) The state of the money market has been so strongly against the procurement of time loans as to make It very dllllcult to conduct specu lative operations upon n free scale. Largo lenders seem to have e-xpressly Intended to prevent so serious a matter as the present election from being made nn eiee-asion for speculative excitement until the event Itself Justifies n general recovery However this may be. the thing that must ultimately detenrlnc the1 price ! of securities will be the relation between their cur rent prices and those which , on the aver age , huvo prevailed pre-vious to the do- rongemenlH of the last thrco years In other words , with a victory for sound money , the question will be : How much more are Blocks worth than they have lievn with the possibility of free coinage hanging over our heads ? Perhaps that question may be approximately answered ' .i" < | " ' "st Thursday's prices with those , , , , Immediately preceding the great breakdown of ISM , which we hero present : Av.

In the earllu'r part of this week strenuous I'ffnrtM were made to demoralize1 the se purity market. lltildn were made UK- gtefllvely. There wes old-fashioned fervor In the hour campaigning. In very few parts of the market , however , was there even n rufllc , till toward the cloge of the . week It was found possible to manipulate i the mone-y market so as to create a sudden | squeeze. Hates ran up iiulekly to ICO per cent tier annum. Since- the panic time , ' ) sra , wo huvo not. linil such n figure In the loan market. Of course , thr boar oracles of Wall street , representing manipulators wio had brought this situation about , went with a rush Into a frenzy of apprehension. They were iifruld of "dreadful consequences. " They were.- afraid of "commercial ealastrophe-s. ' They were- afraid of "allacks upon the gov j ernment gold teserve. " They were afraid i of n "panic among foreign lenders of money In America. " They were afraid tlmt the "big banks of the country had under- lakcii more than they could accomplish. " They were afraid that everything and everybody were about to go toppling to cverhisllng smash. The only thing they were not afraid of ( but ought to have been afraid of most ) was their own Idiocy. It IH Idle to deny , however , that the scare so aimed nl got headway. Stock ! ! were | sacrificed In every part of the market. ! Sales were made freely by practically every j commission house on the Stock exchange. ' Holders of stoekn were nol Inlluenced so much by the wild ncnrecrow talk of the professional bugaboo makers ns they were Influenced by the counsels or brokers to i get out and wait. | Despite all the liquidation the market did not break wide op'-n ; limitations receded * n nn average- only a point or two. The hlef reason for the comparatively small ffeet exerted by frt-e and easy liquidation HIS that bear traders who have long been hort of slocks rushed In at the llrst show f weakness and begun to cover. The net stilt of the Incident , therefore , was that e have had a more general evening up of ( counts than anybody could have ox- eeteil without marked effect upon thu ourse of price's. It was on Thursday that money ranged t 100 per cent. Yesterday the highest gurc was CO. with the bulk of transactions nder 10. Ye-sterday's hns-fiicss on Stock xehange Is the last for which provision as to be madeIn the money market till fter Ihe election. On this account there s a general agreement In banking circle's ' 'hat we aru likely to have no further Hen- : nllonallsm In loan rates , for It Is taken is se-ttled on all sides that with the do- 'eat of Mr. lirynii hundreds of millions of apltul now locked up will como again nto prompt activity. UAPIO UALLT. As soon as It was se'cn on Friday morn- ng that the ICO per cent money rate wim lot to continue , the slock market rallied. Jvory conspicuous slock on the list went ip. The advance , too , was grenter limn he decline had been. Today's market was nil c , conllnuancc of yesterday's strength , nd the market closes for the week with very man In Wall streel e'onfldctit and nthushisllu In the belief that wu are now lose up against the opening of a business loom all over the counlry unprecedented n alt our national history. Despite the' aggressive bear campaigning of the week , despite tlio dally withdrawals if capital , the locking up of gold openly mil In secret on a scale simply trcmcimoits , lesplte what for a time seemed actually , i corner In money , dcsplio "conservative" sermons from every Wall street authority , lesplte wholesale liquidation of nervous nnd frightened speculators and Investors , U'spltedrawbacks nnd depressing In- liiencea beyond measure herewith Is a allowing which amply attests whether or not I am right In the claim that for weeks past I have been presenting lint the financial world Is down o hard pan , and that the controlling tcti- [ lencles In the- thesecurity markets are de cisively upward.

GOOD TLM10S TO HBTUKN. The confidence ot Wall street Is conll- ilence rellecti'd from every business quurlcr of llio country. The highest authority in the Iron tntde says : "Kvery Ironmaker is talking of better times , believing In betler times. On all sides there Is agreement that wo are going to have tile hitherto unprece dented prosperity of L. ! > 7tt right over again. ' Similar statements come from manufac turers I'iroughoul Ihe easl. The chief em ployer of labor at Fall Hlver lolls me : "He- fc-ie Ihe end of IKfl every we'l ' conducted mill In New Kngland will be working double time. " During yesterday and today I have per- ronally seen thu presidents of nlno great tlr.uncinl Instltiillons In Wall street , and from every one has como the same InsplrP- Ing assurance that Tuesday's vote Is bound to provide activity and profits In every financial , commercial and Industrial quar ter- terA .safe barometer of the general business Is always the dry goods trade. The con trollers of Hull trade In il wholesale branches here are In accord fully with the most cheerful anticipations. Hero Is the ; gist of what Is told me by one of the most Important authorities In that trade Join Clallln : "McKlnley's election means money in the pockets of all UIOBO In any way Interester In the dry goods trade. This feeling Is gen era ! among the Jobbers. Hotaller.s are al present buying from hand to mouth anil are gelling along with as Final ! an a in o nil of stock us possible. There Is only needei. that restorailon of confidence which the uecllon ! ot Mr. McKlnley will bring to opei wide the floodgates or business activity. The revival which Is sure to follow the everlhrow of thu silver heresy will begli thu very next day after election , and every thing points to Its being long continued. " What the manufacturers and sellers o goods r ei and have to say Id not more ulg nlllcant of the butter tlme.s due and mire than are the conditions prevailing wllhlt the sight of every eibserver of the market ) for the farm products of Ihe country.

He gnrdleiM wholly of thei justice or Injusllce of such criticisms , I place rellnnco In a plah statement made to mo today by the Ncv York hoiiso which , having nothing to il with speculative trading In futures , Is th largest buyer and seller of actual grain a Ibis seaboard. Thu statement Is brief. I needs no elaboration : "Wheat Is going t lit ) cents a biiHhcl , and It I * going there t stay throughout the coming year nt least.

The Influence of the strength displayed by wheat on the open board yesterday after noon , when the price of December touched 7)c , was still felt at the opening today , not- wlthstundlng the fact lhat the quotations from Liverpool fhowcd an almost entire ab- senee of sympathy with Friday's advance on Oils side of over Ic per bu. Opening prices for December ranged from 7u'ic to " .T c , but afler Iho opening Ilutry the tendency for nn hour or so was downward , and a gradual and Irregular decline lo i2-Ke re- sulled. Heavy offerings caused Ihe de cline. Many brokers arc asking Bo and lOc margins to carry wheat Hues over elec tion , as Monday's market will huvo a de cidedly holiday aspect. The result was that a good deal ottered for sale. For a lime Ihe market took the offering * readily , hut dually the demand slackened and prices i , weakened. When Ihls was disposed of. however . , an advance to 72ie took place. This was due more than anything olVo to the light northwestern receipts.

McKlnley's election , which Is thought hero to be assured , Is counted upon to bring n reflux of gold from America. The Hank of Kngland has borrowed about 3.000.000 from the market. There Is some discontent over the bank's charging 4'/i per cent In view of the better prospects. It Is supposed that the direc tors anticipate an outflow of gold to Australia or Uussln. The stock market has been Irregular and weak , owing ti : the depression In the mining market , and nn Indisposition to Increase committments pending the result of the election In the United States. The mining market la traversing a period of depression , and es pecially South Africa ventures , owing to forced selling both ICngllsh nnd foreign , Doubts regarding the deep level properties nro largely responsible- this collapse The settlement , however , was conclude ! In a better manner than was expected , al. though there was much selling In order to llriLildate weak positions. It is hoped that elimination of the weak spots will lead to u better market. Gold fields , Kami mines , deep South African gold mining ; Transvaal gold and many others show decreases - creases of from 1 to 3 per cent. Another weak spot bus been foreign securities. Ilra- zlllans , especially the USJ stock , has fnller 2 > 4 per cent , owing to the dccllno In ex change , which Is now S per cent the lowest on record. The Turkish group dropped l'i jxjr cent , and Chilians 1. Consols ami Ilrltlsh railways were strong , with gooi buying of the latter on the trade pros peels. American securities fluctuated ac cording to the election news , but the close Hhows a pretty general advance , many duo to New York orders and option deal ings , 3 to per cent being paid for single and double options over the next HCttli nient , The only decreases were : Krlo mortgage , 214 per eeiit ; U'ike Shore , 1 pel cent ; Mexican Central , -14 per cent ; Penn sylvanla , % per cent ; Illinois Central , \ > . per cent.

Whl'o not ninny of Ihe calllc here were wood enough for the killers , there were a few pretty decent cattleOne bunch of we'Htern Krans cattle sold an hlKh as $4.00 , till' beat price paid Ihln season for a bunch of lhat size. This shows that re-alty peed rattle will brltiK a teed ; price on lllls market. The market on tut eotlle , ns e-ompared with yesterday , was strong and the demand active. Cows and helfera were In very light sup ply and rnel with ready sale at steady to strong prh-e : . Some western heifers broiifjht T2.3 ! ' , and a small btineh of cows al $3.10. Stockers and fecdem were In good re- liu-st for the last day of the week , In spile of , the fact that some regular dealers an nounced ye.iterday that they would be out of the market until after election. The cattle market of the week past has he-en In many respects quite HatHfactory to nil Interests concerned. Good beef cat- He have been In very moderale supply , and the few that came here were unappeil up quickly by local packers. Toward the last of the week the eleniand was sulli- clently urgenl to push values up a lltlle , choice beeves being fully 25c higher at Ihe close thnn they wore at the opening of the week. Common kinds of cuttle , owing to a less urgent demand on the part of Ihe feeders , sold easier , but llrmed up again toward the end of Iho week. liutch- crs' Block , such ns cows itnd heifers , was In good demand all Iho week , nnd the mar ket did not show much change from day lo day ; If anything , the tendency the last of the week WIIH on the side of boiler prices. Slockers and feeders sold well all Ihe week , considering llio scarcity of money and the break that occurred early In the week was largely made up during the last half of Ihe week. Moderale re- celpls conMlluted Die main eleir.enl of Htrenglh. Choice- yearlings and good feed ers , weighing right around MO Ibs. , have been the kinds most sought after , and values on mien have been well maintained. IIOCB The week doted with the hog matket In very ralUfactory condition. The receipts were liberal , the demand good and the hoes soon rold. The nmrkel opened strong to Cc higher and conllnued In that direction until the elose. The heavy hogs sold principally nl { 3.15 , whereas the bulk yesterday 1-rnught t3.10fr3.l5. A few extra heavy loads sold down to J3.10 today and somv choice loads up to 13.20. The medium weights sold principally nt n.IOff 3 1 , while the hulk only brought J3.20 yesterday. A few llgM weights brought 13.31 , the same en yesterday. While the hog market of the past week has been la n very healthy condition , 11 has been nn a basis of lower vnlues. The week opened with prices nhout on nn average with the week be fore , but the markcl dropped rapidly on Tueg- day nnd Wednesday. The Imv point of the \\cek was \Vedneyday , the market showing n little strength on ThurKday , ult.i prices n s.inde higher on Friday and Saturday , The week eloped with the market MHOc lower than at the opening of I the week. The demand was good nil the week nnd thin sustained values here , so thai llm market compares very favorably with the markets al other polntx. SHiiiP There was only ono fresh load of cheep here , and nol enougli lo make much of n l markcl. Values remained Jusl about steady. CIIICACO I.IVH STOCK.
