CHICAGO. Nov. 3. More peaceful news
Trom nbroiid today and a slack export tie-
Jnand , tosctlicr with a heavy Increase for
October In Ktiroponn stocks , caused a de
cline In wheat. December closed ' yu-Sc
lower. Corn lost l-8c. Oats advanced Vic.
1'ork left olt 2'/jC ' higher , lard Zijlfoc and
ribs 2' ' c.
Wheat opened weak enough to suggest
thit : un era of universal peace hud 'sud
denly supplanted the late protracted period
of bolllgprancy. Kngllsh government secu
rities , however , opened somewhat lower
than they closed the day before and ac-
fordliiB to rumors lloatlng around Iho pit ,
! Kr gland appeared to be spoiling for an 1m-
inrdlato tussle with Ilussla as well as
J-'iunre. 'An InUlltiK of what subseciiient
cablegrams revealed must , however , have
bfcn known to some traders , who at the
fUiirt had December wheat for sale at from
'AfiS-Sc below last night's clofc. Some of
the early st'lllng was doubtless duo also to
Hir iippoarance of line wuather and the
jirobablo effect on prolonging the time of
mavy deliveries by farmers. Chicago re
ceipts were 313 cars , compared with llfi the
Mi-responding day of last year , while Min
neapolis and Duluth got 1,201 car ? , against
3.037 a year ago. Primary western market
rerc-lpts aggregated 1.530,000 bu. . against
1.423,000 bu. a year ago and 1,2SS,000 bu. for
Iho same day last week. The Atlantic and
Kulf port clearances of wheat and flour
ivtTo equal to 000,000 bu. New York ri-
imrtud lorelgn acceptances compnnilively
JUjht both from the United Kingdom nnd
Hie continent. The opening prices here per
mitted the working of EO.OOO bu. No. 1 north
ern for shipment to London.
A Liverpool cablegram reporting Odessa
Btoclw of wheat olllclally to be over C.OOO.OliO
bu. . Instead of only 3,400.000 bu. as reported
nt the end of October , had a considerable
bearish Influence. Another depressing fea
ture of the day's news was Uearbohm'H
Htiitfment. which made European and on
jmswigo stocks of whsat and flour 0,700,000
bu. larger than estimated October 1. Ue-
ocmbor opened ' .i < f(3-Sc ( lower at CfiliflCC 7-Sc ,
declined to fiBG-Sc , advanced to 07c , then
reacted to fifii c. At this low llgure holders
of put prlvllegs hud a profit and In trying
io secure profits , advanced the price to
tfiVsifiW ! C-Sc sellers at the close.
Trading In corn was not of an Important
haracter and although the feeling was
rather heavy at times on account of the
decline In wheat , the loss for the day was
till accomplished at the start. The fine
weather was suggestive of Increased of-
J'erlngs from the country ' " t" ° near fu
ture and the estimated number of carloads
for Inspection favored the same Idea. The
uhlpplng demand wa.i light , but the
Htrength displayed by oats maintained
prices. Hecelpts were US oars. Dacembcr
opened ' c lower at " 2 1-Sc , declined to 32
B2Vic , advanced to 323-Sc , and closed at
S2'ic buyers.
OatH was particularly active and decid
edly strong nt times. Continued light re-
eMpts and n good general cash demand
Inspired heavy buying of futures. Re-
clpts were 215 cars , or considerably less
than estimated. May began a shade , lower
nt 215-S(24 : 4C , advanced to 2. > 1-Sc , and
closed at 25c sellers.
Liberal hog receipts and the weakness In
pralns started provisions weak. There were
more buyers for the offerings , however ,
than could be supplied at the lower figures
with which the market began. Buying on a
moderate scale continued even when prices
rose beyond yesterday's closing prices.
January pork opened Be lower at $9.00 , ad
! vanced to J9.12'A , then reacted to $ ! t.07 buy
ers. January lard started a shade lower
nt $ l.a7V4. declined to $1.93 , then advanced to
$5.02'y buyers , the closing price. January
ribs betrnn 2 c lower at II.IK1roso to
Jt.CT'fe'S't.TO ' ' , and closed at $ l.fi"i buyers.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : AVhent ,
nee cars : corn , 570 cars ; oats , 215 cars ; hogs ,
31,000 head.

NKAV YORK , Nov. 3.-Tho market prac-
tlcally retrieved today the losses of the last
two days , the majority of railroad stocks
closing within a small fraction of the prices
ot last Monday. Thcro was considerably
Irregularity at the opening , duo to the de.
presslon In London. There wus a good deal
of activity during the first hour , mainly
centered In the specialties and changes In
the railroad list were almost unappreclablc ,
although the market held a very hard sur
face.
"Trading was dttl. almost to the point of
stagnation until the last fifteen minutes ,
when the most notable gains were made.
The movement started with n sudden advance
vanceof nearly 5 points In Metropolitan
Railway , and Consolidated Ons followed
with tin almost equal gain. St. Paul sold
nt 162' ' < , , a new high record , and Great
Northern preferred Jumped over a point.
Other railroad stocks which extended their
net gains to a point or over were Omaha ,
Northwest and Denver preferred. Galis

one or two other stocks approximated a
point.
The market was held throughout the
early dealings by the strength of Sugar ,
which rose above 115 and closed U above
this point after various fluctuations. To
bacco and Federal Steel preferred also
showed a hardening tendency , but were
much less actlvo than of late. The recovery
In stocks was attributed to relief over the
moro peaceful prospects abroad , as Indi
cated by the recovery in Urltlsb consols ,
the easing of the discount rate In London
and the weakness of the wheat market.
London bought In this market for the first
tlmo In several days. In view of these de
velopments and the continued ease of the
local money market the advance In sterling
and continental exchange Is dllllcult to ac
count for.
An Incident of the outside market was
the declaration of Standard Oil "assign
ments" of what Is , In spite of circumlocu
tion employed In announcing It , a dividend
of 3 per cent regular tiuartcrly and 4 per
cent extra , bringing the dividends for the
year up to 30 per icnt , against 3.1 per cent
last year and 31 per cent the year before.
The traffic statement of St. Paul , allowing
an Increase for the fourth week in October
of J114.4UI , was a sustaining force through
out the railroad list.
There was a good business done in bonds ,
especially In reorganization 4s , which
showed a tendency to advance. The liquida
tion of some heavy blocks of Atchlson ad
justments carried the price down 3-S. with a
subsequent recovery. Southern Railway 5s
rose to par. Total sales were fiOI5,000 :
United States old 4s coupon advanced 1-S
and the new 4s coupon declined V4. In the
bid price.
The Evening Post's London financial
cablegram says ; The stock markets here
opened dull today , but closed strong on the
better political outlook. Consols nnd other
markets closed quiet at the best. If to
night's political rumors are conllrmed to
morrow the markets will look better than
for some tlmo past. Americans were
steady.

1.oral Ion of State Line In Doubt.
ATLANTA. Ga. . Nov. 3. United States
Attorney AA'lmblsh has reported to Gov
ernor Candler on Iho claim set forth by
Georgia that 1,500 quarter miles of territory
lying In Tennessee and North Carolina be
longs to the first named state. He goes
over the case as far back as 1832 and says
the question Is still an open one and Is A
matter for the courts to decide. There Is
still eonio doubt whether Chattanooga is In
Georgia or Tennessee. Referring to this
matter. the state's attorney says :
"Chattanooga is within the ancient
boundaries of Georgia. If the question is
reopened and that boundary Is established ,
Chattanooga will , of course , bo In this
state. "

CATTLE There were all told 1,19 fresh
cars of cattle reported in the yards , as
against 13S cars one week ago , 237 cars two
weeks ago and 202 cars three weeks ago.
In addition to the fresh receipts there was
a large number carried over from yester
day , 1,500 head being reported us left In the
yards last night.
The market on beef cattle was in fair
shape , though there was no great amount
of activity visible In any quarter. Cornfed
cattle went at about the same prices ns
yesterday and the desirable loads for the
most part sold In good season. There
seemed to be a pretty good demand for
grass beef steers nnd anything among the
wi stern rangers that would do for killers
sold readily at fully steady prices.
There was quite a string of western cow
stuff in the yards and the market on any
thing good enough for the dressed beef men
was fairly actlvo nnd fully steady. Feeder
cows rind heifers naturally felt the effect
ot the decline in the market for feeder
As was th case yesterday , the big end
of the days receipts consisted of feeders
and the general situation In the feeder mar
ket was about as unfavorable for the sell
ers as could he imagined. In addition to
the large , fresh arrivals speculators' pen ?
were few and far between. There wre
still cattle , and good cattle , too , In first
hands this morning when the market
orc-ned. The country demand all this week
has besn light , which linn allowed the cattla
to accumulate In the hands o speculators
until they feel that they have ns big a
load as they are willing to carry. It is said
that the farmers are busy getting their
corn out and will not take the time to come
in after feeding cattle. Others explain the
small country demand as due to n wide
spread feeling among farmers that feeding
cattle are too high and that the market
will be lower later on. Whatever may or
may not have been the cause , the fact re
mained that the feeder market today was
flat for the want of buyers. Speculators
would pick out a few cattle that Just hap
pened to suit them nnd that they thought
they could use , but the market even on the
good kinds was lower , while the common
and Inferior enttle were practically unsal
able. The forenoon dragged along with few
cattle selling In comparison to the offer
ings. Representative sales :

there were only slxty-flvo loads of hogs In
sight , but enough more were reported back
to iinko a total of eighty-three cars. A
week ago the receipts footed up 117 earn.
two weckr. ago , 134 curs , atul three weeks
ago n'nety-three cars. With only on i xcep-
tlon it was the lightest run for n Thursday
In over two months.
The market opened a little stronger than
yesterday's close , or about like yesterday
morning , and wan fairly active at prevail
ing prices , HO much HO that the most of the
early arrivals changed hands In good sea
son. A few loads of right good Ik'lit hogs
brought M.r.j. with good mixed loads largely
at Ji.47'il&3.M and heavy loads largely nt
1.45. The demand was good and the later
arrivals kept selling , so that a clearance
wus effected Borne tlmo before midday. The
--lose was a little easier than the early
market.
It will be noted from the table of average
prices atentl \ \ of column that the market
is now a little vtroncer than It wan a
week ago. but "oimlderably lower than It
was on Monday of the present week. Thei
average price paid for hogs yesterday was
i
the lowest of thr yenr slive Jnnunr.v , when
the nvrniBf prliv dropped ns low ns $3.37.
. . . . . . , .
SHEEP Today's arrivals were the largest
since Monday , but among all the sheep and
lambs hero there was not very much
mutton. The market as u whole was slow
and weak. IKnvy runs at Chicago have
weakened the eastern mnrket , and whllo
there has been no over-supply nt this point
the market here could hardly avoid being1
Influenced to seine extent at least. Tne
tru.lo opened rather slow this morning
under the influence of weak advices from
other soiling points , and was at no time
very active.
