' CHICAGO, Oct. 14 Business on the
Hoard of Trade once more centered In the
'corn pit today and after a weak opening
the close wm strong, December up 4o. De
cember wheat cloned VaVio lower. Decem
ber oata waa a ahade lower, while pro
VlHlona closed unchanged to 2Vj.o lower.
Indifferent carles, large receipts and
.favorable weather all combined to create
an easier tone to wheat at the opening-. A
'Strong demsnd for May developed, princi
pally from a leading long, and with light
offerings, the market aoon recovered ltn
early weakness. The southwest also waa
credited with good buying. The sharp up
turn In corn was a strong bull factor. De
cember opened a shade to mr'4c lower at
Vo to 707,,c. After declining to 70,c there
was a rebound to 71VC, but another decline
occurred and the cloee was VtVac lower at
70c. Bradstreet's world's visible supply
showed an Increase o 8,94J.(n bushels,
compared with an Increase of 8.66.L0UO bush
els last week. Clearances of wheat and
flour were equal to ti.'O.Ooo bushels. Primary
receipts were l.Ono.oou bushels, compared
with l.nvi.tan) bushels a year ago. Minne
apolis and Duluth reported receipts of 994
cars, which, with local receipts of 202 cars
six of contract grade made total receipts
l for the three points of 1,198 cars, against
il,4K5 cars last week and 1,044 cars a year
'ago.
Corn was active again today and after
the opening weakness the buying became
iulte animated, with a local long taking
on a large line. The early depression was
tine to the Improved weather conditions
and at the decline there was heavy selling
by a prominent trader who Is supposed to
be on the long side of the market. Gen
eral buying, however, soon caused a rally
and the early loss won more than regained.
Iate In the session scattered selling, with
but a light demand, caused a slight decline,
but the close was strong. December opened
Vis1" to 0c lower at 47V,t'S47'-,c, ad
vanced to 4Vo on the bulge, but declined
toward the close, which was 4c higher at
OifiMfc. Lotal receipt were 43a cars,
with elghty-sjx of contract grade.
Oata opened weak in sympathy with corn,
but on covering by shorts and buying by
outsiders the market rallied. There was a
good trade throughout the session and the
close waa steanv. uecemoer ciorteu a. iimuo
tower - at 3lSi31We. after selling between
8Nic and J1 -he Local receipt were 293
Provisions were firm on a moderate vol
ume of trading. Covering or snorts in uc
tnher lard waa an earlv feature. Light re
ceipts of hogs, with higher prices for the
same, waa a strengthening factor. The
close was steady, except on October lard,
wkieh whs hia-her. January pork closed
unchanged at 16.67Vj. Lard waa unchanged

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Better Coal Sltnatlon Tend t
Stronger Market.
NEW YORK. Oct. 14 The night develop
ments In the coal strike situation aroused
a cheerful sentiment in Wall street today.
and the opinion was expressed that the
matters at Issue were In a fair way of
adjustment. The monetary situation was
momentarily lost sight of In the optimistic
feellna- that Drevalled at the opening and
stocks were eagerly bought at advances of
one to four points over yesterday's final
prices. Recent speculative favorites. In
wnicn tne wneat pool iiquitumon nau Deen
heaviest, were most In demand, especially
the coalers and transcontinental stocks. In
dividual orders for blocks of from 1,000 to
4,000 shares were taken at advancing prices
and trading was In enormous volume
throughout. The readiness wun which
the mices ottened to the good news,
combined with the appearance of London
as a heavy buyer, encouraged the bull In
terest to renewed efforts In driving short
Interests to cover. The Inquiry embraced
all classes of stocks, but the largest ad
vances were centered In the highest price
class. Some comment was aroused over
the fact that the active coalers did not ad
vance DroDortlonately more than other
stocks, although the demand for them waa
heavier than at other points. Early prices
showed such a handsome profit to the
traders who bought early yesterday In the
seml-demorallsed market that they com
menced to unload quickly. Commission
houses were well represented In the early
demand, but the volume of realizing sales
soon exhausted their orders and prices
lapsed all around. Before noon the open
ing substantial advances had been pretty
generally reducea to a fraction ana even
canceled In some Important stocks. The
downward movement of prices was accel
erated by a 12 per cent call money rate.
which caned to mina uie raci inai me
monetary situation had to be reckoned
with in order to create a bull market. Deal
ings then subsided Into merely nominal
proportions for a long time, but there was
a steadily Increasing undercurrent of
strength which culminated In a violent
buying movement again in tne closing
hour, which carried the entire market to
the best prices of the day. Prominent
leaders, such as St. Paul, Reading, Penn
sylvania, Atchison, Sugar and Amalga
mated Copper were bought heavily and
there was a large ausorpuon or various
minor stock. . The rally In prices waa
stimulated by a break In nfbney rates from
12 per cent, -the highest . in the. forenoon,
to 5 per cent. The action of tne coal op
erator In agreeing to submit the question
at issue wun tne miners to a Doard of ar
bitration, to be named by President Roose
velt, was freely discussed during the day.
and all news bearing on the subject waa
absorbed with the keenest Interest. Lon
don purchases of stocks were considerable.
and this, combined with more liberal of
fering of commercial bills, caused a
rather sharp decline in sterling exchange
rates. News for the day Included the Sep
tember statement of foreign trade statis
tics, which showed an excess of exports
over Imports of $27,702,277, which was a re
duction of about $12,000,000 from the corre
sponding figures of last year. This Indies
some of our staple products explains in a
measure the recent firmness of the foreign
exchange market, despite the prevailing
high money rates. Nearly $1,000,000 gold
was withdrawn from the Bank of England
today for exportation to Egypt, and it was
announced that the prices of Amerlran
eagles was advanced Vd and bar gold VI.
This will tend, In the event of any Indica
tion of gold Imports from here, to shift the
demand to continental markets. The sub
treasury's statement shows that the banks
have gained nearly $2,000,000 from that In
stitution since Friday, and It Is believed
tnat tne position of tne banks ha been
materially strengthened by the early liqui
dation in stocks yesterday. It la expected
inai ine resumption 01 tne mining opera
tions will necessitate the forwarding of
considerable money to the anthracite re
gions. In the final dealings the stock mar
ket commenced to feel the weight of the
traders prom-taKing sales, put the de
mand was sufficiently large to nrevent
much Impression and the closing was gen
erally nrm.
The bond market today strengthened with
the course of stocks and was fairly active.
Total sales, par value, $3,600,000. United
States new 4s declined b per cent on the
last call.

0.05. Gold bars are. quoted at 77s lOd and
American eagles at 76a sd. Discounts were
firmer today. The directors of the Bank
of England were reputed to be contemplat
ing taking steps to -reduce the plethora of
money. On the Stock exchange the general
weakness was less marked, though there
as little to encourage dealings. The re
vived talk of an early issue of a Transvaal
loan depressed consols, which at first Im
proved. Ljater the American position domi
nated the market. Americans opennd some
what steadier, though inactive and nerv
ous, pending the outcome of the stock nego
tiations and large amount were carrion

count. The speculative Interest in London
was small. Prices hardened somewhat on
the receipt of more favorable advices point

firmer. Foreigners and Kaffirs were stead
ier and the market closed cheerful.

NKW YORK, Oct. 14. COTTON Market
opened steady, with prlcea 4g6 points
higher on bullish Liverpool cables and ru
mors that the coal strike had been Bet tied.
The Kngllsh market was up 4(gt5 points
when a rise of only l(y2 points had been ex
pected. The better ruling of the stock
market seemed to give color to the strike
reports. The advance, however, failed alg
nally to cnthune the speculative public, and
after room shorts had covered the whole
market slowly eased off under pressure of
long cotton from commission houses and
be,ar selling. Working against the cables
were fine weather reports from the entire
belt and an Improvement In the private
crop reports. There were few orders to
buy cotton from the foreign contingent
after the call and the south, as a general
thing, sent selling orders. The trade was
quite certain In Its mind that the weak
south had been favorable to late cotton,
and when the regular government report
made Its appearance at midday It showed
quite the conditions existing. 1 ne scalping
element sold freely on the report and forced
January off to 8.61a. The rest of the list
offered little resistance to selling pressure,
and while there were slight rallies later In
the session on profit-taking by room trad
ers the market at best was heavy and fa
vored the bears. The close was quiet, with
prices net 2''4 points lower. Total sales
were estimated at .200.000 bales. Reports
from southern snot markets told of less
active demand and some dlsVosltion on the
part of the holders to grant the concession
demanded by exports and domestic spin

CATTLE There were only about half at
many cattle here today as arrived yester
day, but for the two days the supply Is
heavier than for the same days of last week
and of last year. .
There were several loads of cornfed cat
tle on sale, but they were not what would
be called good. Buyers consequently did
not take hold of them with much life, as
they have preferred to the short-fed corn
cattle. Strictly good cornfeda would prob
ably have sold to good advantage.
The cow market waa active and stronger
early In the morning. Some of the early
sales looked a little higher. The general
market, though, showed considerable ac
tivity and the prices paid were steady to
strong, as compared with yesterday. The
bulk of the offerings was disposed of In
good season.
Bulls, veal calves and stags did cot show
any quotable change.
The storker and feeder market was In
considerably better shape than It was yes
terday. All the buyers seemed to be anxious
for supplss and aa a result the more de
sirable grades changed hands freely at
prices ranging strong to a dime higher. The
commoner grades were a little easier to dis
pose of than they were yesterday, but still
they could not be quoted much more than
steady.
Western beef steers were a scarce article,
but anything good commanded fully steady
prices and some sales looked a Utile
stronger. Range cows were also active and
steady to strong and some of the early sales
looked a little higher. Blockers and feeders
that were at all good were In active de
mand and could De quoted strong to a
dime higher. Common kinds did not show
much change. Representative sales;

HOGS There was another very light run
of hogs here today, and as the demand con
tinued liberal the market opened active and
10c higher than yesterday. The bulk of the
sales went from 87.15 to 17.20, and as high
as 17.25 was paid. Trading was brisk at
those prices, and ' was not long before
practically everything In the yards waa dis-
rtosed of. A train arrived late In the morn
ng with several loads of hogs, and those
did not sell to quite as good advantage at
the earlier 'arrivals.
Today's advance makes the market a
shade higher than It was on Thursday of
last week, but 20M25c lower than it was a

SHEEP There
wat a heavier run of
sheep here today
than arrived yesterday.
but for the two days there Is a decrease.
both as compared with the same days of
lsst week and also with last year.
The big bulk of the -offerings waa again
composed of feeders and In reality fat stuff
was more scarce than usual. The few
bunches that did arrive were picked up
In a hurry at prices that ranged from
atrong to a dime higher than yesterday. It
Is very evident that packers are getting
hungry for some good stuff.
There was a good demand for feeders, so
that, although the supply was liberal, the
market waa active and stronger. The better
grades In a good many cases sold a dime
higher than the tame kinds brought late
last week. That was the case of both
sheep snd lambs. The commoner grades,
though, did not nhow much of any change.
