NEW YORK , Nov. C. ( Special ) Henry
Clone , li'ad of the banking house of Henry
Clems & ( Jo. n rites :
As usual , on the eve of the elections , Wall
street han lapsed Into a state of Inaction ,
/This / viar there Is perhaps fspwlil reason
Why that should be the ccjc. A new con
gress has to I > P chceen , which will hav to
deal with questions of high Importance to
Onanclal Interests , and , as one of the parties
In the canvass declines to discuss national
questions , there U niu h uncertainty as tj
the Itoucs with which they may have to
deal and this products a feeling of some
nnxlcty Under these circumstances Wall
eticet IB disposed to hold Important opera
tions In wispense until the election returns
Bhow what Is to bo the complexion of thc
next congiess , especially In respect to the
Bllver and paper currency questions and the
conclusions i cached by the 1'arls peace con
gress The effect of these Influences la to
jilaco the maikct very much at the disposal
of the"beai " for the time being and * o
rci rlft operations to the i win traders ins
mcrruiial Industrials even sharing in the
general dullness.
Outjldo thmo political Influences , the con
ditions bearing upon the Investment nml
fipn ul-tlve Interests are very gciierullj hope
ful Representations from tl.e west are espe
cially w Merchants lieu- from that section
neon ) li'liavc caught a booming tone , and
nre Ml of hopeful expectations. Ihe in
dustries of that section ficom to beIn a
much more prosperous state than those or
the iMRtrrn and middle lnlrf , the tendency
apparently being to produse at home more
of nnirli-s which have hlthcito been sup
piled fnm the manufacturing sections The
case of money In the ngrlcultur.il states la
Boincihltig remuKnblo foi this season of the
year At snino of the ccntc-rs the rate of
Interrst Is t\cn lower than nt New "iork
This Is In a large measuie attributable to
the unusual amount of money that has been
dlstiUnited thiough the Importations of fold
nml to the expansion of the bank circulation
attendant on this Issueof bonds In connc-c
tlon wlt'i the war loan Equally , perhaps ,
the case Is a consequence of the large liq
uidations of farm mortgages from the pro
ceeds of the llbeial yields and high pr cos
for gialn cleiivcd from the ciops of last
jear mid this , the result of which Is to swell
the Idle , balances of the banks and Produce
n flush condition In financial circles This
position of affairs at the west Isi like y to
cause an Important Increase , henceforth , in
of the Interior banks with their
the- deposits
in thin city , and It would not be
mirprlslns If the cons-qiu'nccs should appear
extraordinary expansion of the
pear in an
Now York reserves and very low rates of In
terest during the wlntci months
that between now and
It IB quite likely
January 1 some 20.000.000 bushels of wucnt
may bo shipped to Europe , and a large
portion of the proceeds nmv under the west
ern conditions above Hpcc-lfl-d , be expec'od to
remain In this city on balance U would
seem probable that the extraordinary out
flow of wheat has reached Its climax Last
show marked falling
week s export orders a
ing off That may be In romr measure due
to the very high rates lor ocean freight
Incident to the current heavy export move
ment hut at the sumo tlmo the recent large
additions to European stocks are calculated
to check the export demand until the farm
ers ha\e made some roncessli > n from tue
reconlly advanced pi Ices.
The largo current exports have IBFS enect
upon the rates of foreign exchange than
might bo expected. The difference between
the rates for money at New York ami Lon
don makes It profitable to employ die funds
hero In the purchase of export bills , and
this demand keeps the rate of exchange at
ft figure which prevent * , the Importation of
cold. This lending to Europe , however. Is
piling up a creditor balance In our favor ,
lie settlement of which may bring gold
hither at some later Rtage. This factor
etrcngthcns the probability , based upon the
of coming unusual
Interior currcncj movement , a
usual ense In the New York loan market.
The unsettled condition of European poll-
tics esnc'-'ally as to the relations between
Great Ilrltaln. Russia nnd France. has
scarcely been an appreciable factor on the
Block exchange Just In proportion as the
possibilities of war nppcar to strengthen tno
disposition of the European markets Is to
Bell their homo securities and hold onto the
Issues of countries less alfected by the
chances ot hostilities. There has consequently
quently been no visible return of our securi
ties from Europe within the last week It Is
Impossible to Judge , however , what the
future may have In store In this respect.
The political situation IE evidently strained
to an unusual pitch. On that point , while
the governments ore silent , the extraordi
nary naval and military preparations of Eng
land leave no doubt While Franco has ap
parently given up the pretensions repre
sented by the Marchand mission , yet tnero
( oems to bo considerable probability that she ,
has done so only for the purpose of i ( Using
a broader IBRUO upon Engliuid's position In
Egypt In which Franco could probably
count upon the co-operation of Russia. Any
real probabilities looking In that direction
must bo viewed as a matter of the utmost
seriousness , for such n struggle might easily
assume European dlmenblons and mlgln
easily become complicated with the sltuatloi
In the fur cast , which seems to be suggested
by the reports of England's naval prepara
tions at Wel-Hal-Wel. These are mutters
which probably deserve moro attention U
Wall street than they have yet received.
Nor can financial Interests afford to wholly
disregard the position of affairs In the Paris
Pfeico congress The fate of Cuba has been
cllsrciBed of only conditionally , that Is , upor
the disposition of Spain towards our demands
In respect to the Philippines The chances
of a final peace being reached are therefore
wholly dependent upon what may bo done
In regard to the archipelago. It Is dtfflcul
to Buy what weight should bo attached to
Ihe Spanish and French representations com
Ing from Paris , but they orc unanlmousl ) to
the effect that Spain would reject our do
nmnd for the cession of the whole group o
Islands , unless accompanied with couipensa
tlons BO large that our government coult
pot consider them. It may b * thut the Span
Ish commissioners will proie more yielding
limn their mouth pieces now prognostlcat
of them Hut If they should not we mus
face the consequences of a failure to settl
a peace. However disagreeable such an out
come might be , yet wo could easily cnforc
pur terms with added severity If we EC
chose. Tbo only really serious contingent
is whether. In such event , other powci
might Intervene In the Interest of Spain I
seems reasonable to suppose that Spall
would rcfusn to Invite the further losses sh
would Incur from a renewal of hostllltle
unless she had In advance the assurance o
nld from powers Jealous about our galnln
a vital position of control In the Pacific If
therefore , we should fall to get Sjxiln's con
sent to our terms on the Philippines there i
un unpleasant possibility that we might hav
to deal with a more formidable rasp tha
wo have hitherto had to handle. On till
point ft few da > s will revuil much , nnd per
Imps It may mean more to Wall street tha
some have supposed.

NEW YOHK. Nov. G The Financier says
The statement of the Now York clearing
house bankM for the WPPK en ling Novem
ber G came as a distinct surprise , so fnr
s the changes In the pilnclpal nro con-
erncd. According to current Indications ,
ic banks had gained from the tnterlo- ,
icy iccelved some gold from Europp and
oni Son Francisco nd trearury dlElurr -
icnts had added to their ( i h. Vet the
atoment shows an nctim i * s of ? 3 1. > 0 200
i specie , nnd logals and as reserve requite-
icnts were Increased by the gain of
" .500,000 In deposits , the reserve In banl.3
uftered a loss of over $7,000.000 Loans ,
n the other hand , continued their unn i-'i
ndcncy and expanded $11,012,500. Wliat
rought about the unexpected changes may
ot be clear but how they were caused may
e traced through a study of the figures of
te Individual banks Thus the gain in
oans came mostly from Increases In the
itals reported by the Natlonil City , the
anovor National , the National Park nnd the
Vestcrn National banks the gains of these
istltutlons aggregating roughly nearly $10-
00,000
The National City's loans are $5,000,000
reattr than for the previous week , and , as
lost $3,000,000 of specie and gained only
. ' ,000,000 In deposltH , Its statement about
ilancps The loss In specie by all the
.inks was nearly $4,000,000 and adding to
10 National City's decrease In this Item
: mt of the Hanover National , amounting
i about $1,300,000 , the shrinkage Is more
nn accounted foi In ordlnarj transactions
ic-rcased loans mean largo deposit credlti ,
ut In the case named the Inans neem to have
esultcd In a loss In cnsh The deposit nc-
ount also seems to have been affected by the
hanges In a very few binks , the gains of
10 National Park , the Western National
nd National City being almost as large as
le total expansion of $7,513,200 reported
y all the banks Thp changes noted merely
idlcatc , as stated , how the fluctuations
ere brought about Taking the statement
s an average exhibit , It rcllects perhaps
s much as anything else the cebsatlon of
lie factors so often explained In this nnaly-
Is , which have brought about the heavy
xpanslon of the past five or six weeks. As
ny small decreases In cash which the banks
oport can be abundantly replaced from
everal sources , the effects on current rates
will be small , even If at all noticeable.

CHICAGO , Nov 6 Lower foreign mar
kets today , the bearish Russian crop llg-
ires and u disappearance of the export de
mand caused a sharp decline In wheat
Jecembor closed Ic lower. Corn nnd oats
Biich lost 1-Se. Pork lost 2MjC , lard 2V4 < 85
ind ribs left oft n shade lower.
Wheat ut the start was still suffering-
rein the very bearish Uusslan crop report
; ent out late jesterday and the announced
letermlnatlon of France to retire from
Vishodn. Liverpool was quoted nt 3-Sd to
id decline nnd London reported cargoes on
luwbugo JjyJVlJ lower , while on the other
mud European securities showed a corresponding
spending Improvement In tone. The very
letuy shipments of wheat and for the week
from Atlantic nnd Pacific ports were be
loved to have had some part In causing the
Aoukness abroad and traders here were In-
llncd to go carefully In selling shorts while
lolders ot puts were enabled by the open-
tig decline to buy with confidence. Clear
ances of wheat and flour from both coasts
his week were given as 6,774.000 bushels ,
against BM1,000 bushels the previous week
and 5.550.0UO the corresponding week a year
ago Chicago receipts were 272 cars , com-
uired with 139 for the same day last year.
The movement In the northwest was largo ,
Minneapolis and Ouluth reporting 1,374 car-
oiuls received , compared with 1,103 the pre-
, Ious jear. Now York wired that foreigners
were moderate sellers of futures there and
Homo foreign selling orders were executed
lore also. Shipping houses reported n very
. ) oor demand from the seaboard or foreign
sources while a cablegram from Antwerp
to u C'hlcago house said that Russian hold-
ois were reducing' their prices and Argen
tine prospcctH were for n largo crop of
wheat Atlantic port clearances of wheat
ind Hour for the day wtre equal to 301 000
bushels Nothing eneoulaging being forth
coming to the bulls the news came very
leavy and during the last hour prices
reached the lowest point for the day. De
cember opened Hij3-Sc lower nt Co S-SQCo c ,
old at G534c , then declined to C5c , bujers
the closing llgure
Weak cables and a heavy wheat maikct
nail u depressing effect on corn , notwith
standing the ftendy adherence of a strong
bullish contingent The unfavorable turn
to the weather awoke the hope among the
bulls that receipts would drop off In con
sequence , but the arrivals of corn , 730 cars ,
were considerably above the estimates
Some business was done for shipment ,
brokers reporting that corn was the only
grain they had any orders for December

then icacted to 24 5-8e sellers , the closing

CATTLE As will be noted from the table
of receipts ut luud of column there were not
enough c.utle n re to muKe a market In
fact , a considerable prupuillon of what
cattle weie upoU'd reioi\cd were con-
slgii'd diuct to u i > i ker , so that there was
\ery llttU of an > kind on mile Chicago unit
Kansas City uiso had the usual light re
ceipts of a baundio , s o that the large
markets , of the country were all In about
the same boat. Values were nominally un
changed.
The receipts of cattle this w ek were
fairly liberal , being soniewnut larger than
for the previous week , but with that ex
ception they wee the binallest for any
we k In over a month Among the number
received there wtre comparatively lew
killing cattle , the bulk being made up of
western cattle on the stocker and fe der
order. The scarclt ) Of lilt cattle caused
the market on cornKd bttx.rs to take on a
little more strength Und for the w ek It
would be bate to call It n little higher , on
the best kinds probably lO&jloc higher. At
the same time grass beef cattle were no
higher , though the market for the week was
fully steady.
Cows and heifers were In pretty good de
mand on most dajs of the week , and , as
the supply of killers was far from large , the
market had a strong tendency , and for the ?
weak might be called a little bit higher.
As might be expected under the circum
stances , feeding cows and heifers were
to some extent Influenced by the condition
of the market on feeding steers.
Owing to the large receipts of leading
cattle and a moderate country demand the
market during the greater part of the week
wag In a condition bordering on demoraliza
tion. Real choice cattle were at no time
very plentiful , but there w.u < a world of
common to medium cattle , which were very
slow on most days of the week. Yesterday
the yards were pretty well cleared of stockers -
ers and feeders. The reports sent Into the
country of the heavy break In prices
brought In a good many country buyers , and
before the soaks closed at night the most
of the cattle In the yards had changed
hands. ' Everything In first hands was sold
and speculators reduced their holdings very
materially , so that at the close of the week
the yards are practically cleared. Good
cattle sold the middle of the week 15I20c
lower than last week , and common cattle
were worse than that. Speculators say that
they sold medium to common inttle nny-
where from 2o'fi'40c ' lower than they did a
week ago liven at the decline the cattle
did not move out very rapidly , and It was
not until Friday , when the country demand
Improved at the same time , that there was
a let-up In the receipts that anything like
a. ck.inui > was made
HOGS Todaj's arrivals numbered 6,419
head , as against 4,055 head one week ago ,
11,063 hfad two weeks ago , 6,750 head three
weeks ago , and 7,063 head four weeks ago
The market opened good and strong , some
sales showing a slight advance over yes
terday. The demand appeared to be quite
active and early arrivals changed hands
readily at prevailing prices , so that the
bulk of offerings soon changed hands. Tor
the most part packlnw hogs sold at $3 DO
and prime heavy at 3 SS'MJS 55 , Medium
weight and mixed loads wont at $3.55Q3 57H
and light at $3 57H < fi3 CO Yesterday a good
many of the packing hogs had to sell at
J3 47K. with the long string of all the sales
at $3 50 It will be noted that the top today
was higher , as the best price paid yester
day was J357H. The top hogs today , how
ever , were fancy light weights , every one
of them belli ! ? , In the language of the yards ,
a "peach " The market gradually lost Its
vim , and , as was to be expected , closed n
little enslsr Kverythlnc. however , was
sold , and taking Into consideration the fact
that It was the last day of the week , the
market wes In good shape.
The demand for hogs was good nil this
week , but values touched the lowest point
slnrp January The week opened with the
market a shade higher , but It dropped back
again on Tuesday , went still lower on
Wednesday and Thursday , the latter being
low day for the week. On Friday values
were a little stronger , and at the close of
the week only a shade lower than on last
Saturday A year ago at this time hogs
wtrr jelling Just about where they have
sold this week , but two years ago they were
selling at (3 20&3 30 on an average , and three
yearn a no at (3 35 < fU 40
SHEEP Thp most of the shsep here were
consigned through , so that although the
receipts looked llbor.U on paper , there was
really very little hero to make a test of the
market.
The eastern market on sheep has been In
bad shape this weak and the result Is that
i nines have suffered here In consequence
Mutton sheep sold at the end of the we k
25t30c lower than the same kind biought
the week before Lambs wore In small
Mipply all the week , but judging from the
condition of eastern markets It Is fata to
say that western lambs would have to sell
close to 25c lower The market on stackers
and feeders was also a little lower , but still
do'lrablo kinds sold at pretty fair prices
Some feJdcr yearlings-Bold at Jl 00 and 14 03
josterday , which probably n week ago
would have brougHt'HM15c ? more.

Clit't'rlnif IInc.
"It has struck me right along that the
newspapers of the jcllow variety have been
making a terrific hullabaloo over the way
things wore run down In Cuba. Porto Rico
and In the American camps , with very little
reliable Information upon which to base
their charges , " said nn ofilrer of the
Twenty-fourth Infantry ( on * of the negro
regiments ) to the Washington Star man. " 1
didn't see much to complain about under the
circumstances down In Cuba and I had a
pretty fair chance to see what was going on.
The only genuine criticism , In fact , that I
have to make refers to the scarcity of to
bacco among the troops down there. To.
bacco was at a premium during the greater
portion of our stay In Cuba and the soldier
who were deprived of It would very will
ingly have paid for It nt the price of Ito
weight In gold. I don't think It would be
possible to overestimate the value of to
bacco to troops undergoing a hard cam
paign. It Is bread nnd meat and drink tea
a soldier enduring the hardships of war.
It Is at once a stimulant and a tonic nnd
Its value In allaying hunger Is well known
to experienced commanders. Queer as It
may seem , chewing tobacco also allays
thirst. I know this , because I've tried It.
Another point with reference to the chewing
of tobacco by soldiers In a campaign Is
that all of the old-timers swallow the julco
of the weed. They allow that It Is apt to
make fellows not used to handling It In
that way a bit sick at first , but they say
that the stimulating effect of the plant l
lost If the juice Is expectorated.
"I never had a better Illustration of the
value of tobacco to men who had long been
hankering for It than on the day of the San
Juan fight. The black noldlers of my outfit
of the Twenty-fourth had been entirely to-
baccoless almost from the time wo landed
In Cuba and It was the hardest kind of a
deprivation upon men who had been used for
years to consuming the weed In all lift
forms. The men mlfised tobacco particularly
after meals. After they got out Ido of
their coffee they would get together and
talk longingly of tobacco and I could just
see their teeth leaking for It. but there
wasn't a quarter of nn ounce to be had. 1
don't hesitate to say that the men of my
company weren't quite the eamo without
tobacco and a number of them frankly bald
that they'd rather be without grub than to
go tobaccoless.
"On the morning of the San Juan scrap 1
came Into the proud possession of a one-
pound plug of chewing tobacco. I'm not
going to Incriminate mjself b ) stating how
I happened to get the plug , but I got It all
the eame. A-short time before It came our
turn to go Into the action I produced tbo
plug and handed It to the big , black top
sergeant of my company. You ought to
have seen his eyes stick out when he caught
sight of the plug.
" 'Just pass It down the line , ' I told him ,
'and let each of the boys take a nibble off It'
"The sergeant took a bite off the plug
himself and then handed It to the first duty
sergeant. The whole company was 'on to"
the presence of the plug of tobacco In the
outfit by tills tlmo nnd they set up a cheer.
They just forgot all about the Impending
fight , they were eo tickled over the sitht
of the tobacco The plug went down the
line , every man taking off n bite , and then
It started up the line and toward mo again.
It certainly did dwindle In sire , that plug
of tobacco By the tlmo It got Into th *
hands of the top sergeant It was just the
slzo of one good chew , which the men had ,
by careful calculation , saved for me , 'the
loot'nant. ' Did I take it ? Well , I guess
ycfi , and swallowed every bit of the juice ,
llko all the rest of the men. And I can tell
you It tasted good The men throw their
shoulders back under the stimulus of the
tobacco and became perky and sassy and
fighty all through and I suppose you remember -
member what the Twenty-fourth did In the
San Juau fight ? I had the chow In my
mouth , enjoying It hugely , when the last
of the three Mausers that plugged me got
me In the hips , paralyzing me from the
waist down for a couple of months after
wards and , as I didn't become unconscious.
I cujojed that chow even after I was hit"
