CHICAGO, Oct. 22. Lower prior In grain ruled today on the Hoard of Trade, due orlnrloallv to excellent weather and general liquidation.

In fluenced oy the sharp drop In corn and good weather for the movement, and longs liquidated freely during the opening- hour Good commission house buying on the de cline, together with the bullish tendency of local tradera, caused an, upturn. December, however, waa Inclined to drag- and recov ered but little of the early Ions. Statistics were mainly favorable to lower prices. De cember opened a ahade higher to thkC lower at T2ral2:, declined 10 fjic ana after rallvlnit to i2lc. closed t,c lower at 724f72:HiC.

Oood weather for arylng out corn and a report that a prominent operator had dis posed of his December holdings cauaed a decidedly weak tone to the market at the opening.

It was rumored that much of the buying was for the operator mentioned ana mis started shorts to cover and prices rallied s a conseq ience. December opened tp o lower at 4wwc ana oerore any sup port was given the market the price had declined to 49", but a firmer tone de veloped during the latter part of the day, sales being made at 50c.

WBW YORK STOCKS ASI BOWHS Market Shows Laek of Interest aad Fears of Gold Exports.' NEW YORK. Oct. 22. Tn Its essential feature today's stock market reflected practically all the previous day's charac teristics, including an utter lack of public interest ana increasing rears of gold ex- nnrts. Ktprltnir evrhuncr waa nnnlMl am high as $4.8660. In fact the foreign exchange maraei waa tne feature of the day and de veloped most Interestingly, with an In creased demand for sterling at this center arm nigner quotations lor bar gold and Americun coin in London. The local ad vance was all the more Interesting in view of the Inadequate steamship facilities to morrow, these providing only a slow boat for banks to use in forwarding remittances. The demand was especially strengthened by further sales of stocks for London ac count in this market, and reported alto gether a total Inquiry for exchange. This may nave Deen tne substitution ror gold for bills as a form of International remit tance. Demand bills for remittance next Saturday held at $4.8670 and the quoted price for next Wednesday was $4.8680. Busi ness was even lighter In volume and the lone oi tne list was professional through out. Reading was the only strong stock at the opening, several fairly large lots being taken at a fractional advance over the London price. The reBt of the list was sren erally lower, Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, New York Central, St. Paul, Mis souri Pacific and several other active stocks all scoring declines. The market dragged all through the morning session, with no marked tendency save for a few feeble ral lies, but these were Invariably followed by declines. Some of the stocks already men tioned participated In this Irregular move ment, as did also Norfolk & Western, Louis- vme b iNasnvuie ann Illinois central. There were no great recessions, nor waa any pro nounced pressure Shown except, perhaps, against Baltimore & Ohio and St. Paul. The rather favorable statement of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company failed to develop any demand for that stock. Western houses were buyers of Colorado Fuel and Iron, which suggested a revival of the recent fight for control of that property. London again took an unfavorable view of local monetary conditions and sold upward of 10,000 shares on balance. It is estimated that London has unloaded fully 150,000 shares of International stocks on this mar ket In the last week. The afternoon session brought general recoveries and early losses were for the most part wiped out. The strong features of the day were North western, with a good showing for Septem ber St. Paul, Missouri Pacific, Toledo, St. Louis & Western 1 preferred, Sugar and Colorado Fuel. The weaker stocks were Illinois Central, Norfolk & Western, Metro politan Street Railway and Sloss-Sheffleld Steel. Among the day's favorable develop ments were an announcement of another Importation of gold from Australia and the continued ease of demand money. Call loans were made, at between 6 and 6 per cent. Time money was quoted at 6 per cent for all dates up to six lonths. It was practically impossible, however, to get sixty or ninety-day loans at this rate. Ad ditional purchases of bonds to the amount of $1,000,000, par value, were made by the subtreasury. The latest treasury renort shows an increase of government expenses over receipts or more man zii,uuo,ooo. The bond market was very irregular today, but fluctuations were narrow and trading very small. Total sales, par value. $1,185,000 United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

Soon after midday active general Duying set in ana continued throughout the rest of the session. Light estimates for New Orleans and Galveston receipts and rumors that strong Chicago grain and provision interests were building a line of January cotton, helped to strengthen local bull confidence and to stimulate covering.

Buyers were slow, the same as usual, to take hold of the short-fed cattle, but the most of them sold without any Important change In prices from yes- teraay. 1 ne cow markzt openea lust abojt steady, but owing to the big supply that has been here all the week buyers tried to ound the market and succeeded fairly wed. he general market could be quoted all the way from steady to a dime lower. The decline was general on all cluswes. but it was noticeable that canners sold easier than the better grades. Trading was none too active and the day was well advanced before the bulk of the offerings was dis posed of. Bulls and stags were also rather dull and sink, but veal calves held steady. 1 ne demand for stockers and feeders was rxtremely light this morning, while the supply waa heavy. The demand from the country has been very disappointing all the week, so that cattle nave been accumulate t.g In the yards and prices going down. Speculators were very small buyers this morning and the prices paid were unevenly lewer. Up to a luv hojr the big bulk of the stock cattle were still In first hands. Western beef steers sold at lust about steady prices, ar compared with yesterduy. It was noticeable that owing to the de cline In feeders that packers were buying good many of the kind that have henn previously classed as choice heavy feeders. While desirable killers were about steady the commoner grades were dull and a little easier. Western feeders were extremely dull and the market unevenly lower than eeterdy. At noon there were so few feed ers sold that not much could be told of the market. The eariv market on cows was about steady, but later on It weakened and the bulk of the offerings sold weak to a dime lower. Kenresentattve sales: No. Av. fr. No. Av.

I steady market was experienced. There was quite a lime fat sturr included In the re ceipts, but as packers all had lihers.1 or ders there was none too many to meet the aemana. -ine better grades In fact sold In many cases at prices that looked a little stronger than yesterday, but the market could perhaps best be described by calling It a good, steady, active market. A bunch of western yearlings and twos mixed sold at 83.75 and some western swa that have been fed for a short time brought $3.25. Lambs also commanded fully as good prices as were paid yesterday. There watt a little more life to the feeder trade today and the better trades nnUt without much trouble at steady prices. The common stun continued a arug on the mar ket.

A NEW COPPER PRODUCER There are only a few great copper pro ducers In the world today and for two of them the United Verde and the Greene Consolidated Professor George A. Tread well is responsible. He is about to present the world with a third, which he thinks will surpass both of the others. The OEORGE A. TREAD WELL MINING COMPANY, which bears the Professors name, owns a vast aggregation of wonder fully rich mlnlDg properties near the fa mous VDlted Verde on the Verdo Copper Belt and In the Big Bug District In Yavapai County, Arizona. Its Drat smelter, of on hundred tons dally capacity, is ready to start up, and It will be followed by other furnaces until a capacity of a thousand tons or more a day is reached. The ore Is rich In gold as well as copper and gives a net profit over and above tbe , entire cost of mining and sme'tlng of at least $10 a ton. In some of the mines the gold itself will pay the entire cost of pro ducing the gold and copper, leaving tbe copper cost-free. The mines are already producing mors than enough to supply tbe present furnace, and tbe ore production will Increase faster than It Is possible to increase the furnace capacity. The company has a very low capitalisa tion considering its rich and extensive properties three million dollars.
