The ability of Europe to get wheat ha been evidence for some time and the Inrre world'a shipments are caualng a lark or faith In stories of damage ti Argentine crops.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1 Reiterated reports of damage in the southwest caused active covering of wheat today, resulting In a firm market. At the close both the Decem ber and Msy deliveries were up c t orn Is down fif. Oats are up a shade. Pro visions are practically unchanged. Sentiment In the wheat pit at the open ing waa bearish. Contributing to the de ITesslon were 1owr cables and a report of liberal shipments from Argentine. Northweatern receipts, which for aome time paat have been smaller thnn for the corresponding daya a year ago. were some what In excess today. Opening quotations on December were off V4i&,c at tl-iovav 1.10'V Mav waa down Uc to He lover, at tl.loHl.W, to fl.iov During the first hour selling was quite general, commission housea and pit traders htvlng plenty of offerings on the market.

Iter sentiment In the pit be came bullish and on active covering by ahorta the market experienced a aul'Stan tlal rally.

Packers seemed to be rather Indifferent and as a result thera was not much life to the trade and It took Some time to make a clearance. A few loads of cornfed steers arrived, and, while none of them were choice, part of them were fair. The market was very dull, as buyers claimed that prices here are entirely too high as compared with Chicago and other markets and for that reason, unless they could get their sup plies for less money, they did not want to buy any. Trading was very slow and It was late before a clearance was made. Just a few western range beef steers arrived this morning and buyers seemed to be willing to take those at steady prices and It did not take long for them to buy up everything offered. As compared with a week ago there Is not much change in present prices. The cow market was rather uneven. Some of the buyers stsrted In early and picked up a few of the better grades of cows at Just about steady prices, as high as $3.10 being paid for a "-lng. Before very manv had change Trends, however, the market weakened and the later sales wera right around a dime lower. When It came to canners the market was active and fully steady, as all the packers seemed to be anxious for that class. For tha week the general market on cow stuff shows very little change. Bulls, veal calves and stags showed no quotable change. The stocker and feeder market was a little slow this morning, the same as usual on a Friday, and the tendency of course was to buy the commoner kind a little lower. The desirable grades, though, sold In very much the same notches they did yesterday. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. Pr. 4 00 ft Kansas City Ornln and Provisions. KAJv'SAS CITY. Nov. IK.

Buyers went around and picked out the kinds they wanted and paid Just about stendy P"C".or ,h,M", but for the remainder their bids In most cases were weak to a dime lower. The market was not very orisk on any K.nd. and it waa a little late befvTe a clearance was made. Receipts of Idlers included both western graesers and corn ftds. A string of western grass ewes and wethers svld for $4.36 and some fed native ewt-s brouglH $4.35 and fed western ewes $4 .10. Range lambs aold up to $o.2. fo choice fed lambs were offered. A large proportion of the receipts con sisted of feders ar.d, the same as usual on a Friday, there were not very many buynrs on hand. There were enough orders in the hands of commission men, however, t.j hold the market steady on everything at all desirable. . , . . Violations for grass sheep ana ismos.

The decline here amounted to tWiSo and on the close the market was a big nickel lower. The bulk of the hogs went at $4.66 and $4.6714, with the choicer loads largely at $4.70. As high as $4 76 was paid for a very prime load. Trading was quits active on the early ar rivals and most of them were disposed of In good season. About the middle of the forenoon, however, a few cars arrived and packers then became Indifferent and wanted to buy what was left at $4.624 and $4.65. Salesmen, of course, wanted the morning prices, and aa a result the close was nci on v sentatlve sales: weak, but slow. Repre. Ns 14... 41... 44... U... 34... 41... 44... 44...

Hill estimated the yield some time since at less than 2,000,000,000 bushels, while the Department of Agriculture's estimate, based on authoritative returns, make it 2,453,000,000 bushels, the difference in the two estimates being equal to an amount that would provide for a vast army for a long time. Looking over the records, it is discovered that this year's crop has been exceeded in only two years, 1899 and 1902, in the country's history. Along with this, it is important to note that the quality of the new crop is excellent 86.2 compared with 83.1 last year, 80.7 in 1902 and 73.7 in 1901. Ho it is safe to say the present yield is the largest of good corn on record, and figured on from any possible standpoint, will require an enormous consumption and much more than the usual help from abroad to dispose of it at anything like prevailing prices, or those that have prevailed during the last four sea sons. IJefore going further with this review, let us see what our prospects are for export this year. Last year we exported 56,000,000 bushels, and for the year previous to that about 72,000,000 bushels. Broomhall, of the Liverpool Corn Trade News says, that on account of the failure of the foddcrcrops of Europe, the continent will want 180,000,000 bushels of American corn during the crop year of 1904-1905 a nice increase, it is true, and yet only .07 per cent of our total production. Here at home we have for convenience divided our consumption as follows: 90 per cent to cattle and hogs and 10 per cent among distillery interest and manufacturers of other pro ducts. It is a fact that when the price Mas showing an annual fluctuation of only 5c or 10c, or from 20c to 30c per bushel, there was a reasonable margin of profit in feeding corn to Cat tle and Hogs, but prospects for feeding the coming winter are not at all bright, for, accord ing to information by a Chicago authority, on the distribution of Corn for feeding purposes, the number of cattle that will be fed for market in the following surplus Corn states com pares as follows with last season; Missouri 52.5 per cent; Kansas 06.66; Nebraska 70.2 South Dakota 100; Iowa 56.75; Illinois 75.25; Indiana 78; Ohio 70.5; and Michigan 67.5. It is very evident from these figures that feeders have not realized much profit from their money and labor during the last few years, and when one considers how many extra million bushels this means will be forced into th channels of trade other than for feeding pur poses because of reduced feeding demands, the purchase of a small part of the crop, which at some time might represent a few million bushels, by some bull leader orpool, it is going to be a different task to hold the price up, and as we find the situation, there is nothing in" sight to assure the grower this year that he will secure any higher price than the present level for his crop. The present dry, cool weather is doing much to improve the quality, and every day it continues is a great thing for the crop, not to the extent of making more bushels but put ting it in shape for early marketing. Consignments are already more free, and this week's receipts are for the first time in almost two months equal to a year ago. The increase has had some effect on the price, but only the beginning of what is likely to happen when Chi cago receipts are averaging 500 to 1,000 cars daily. Hence, it is clear to us that we are to havve a market that can have only small temporary swells The advances will not be sufficient to scare shorts to cover, and on the hard spot insiders will be sure to make sales. The strngth of today's cash and shipping situation will disappear. December, however, may not decline very much, owing to the nearness to delivery and small stocks, but those who will sell May have the biggest and best yields in years back of them and something like five months in which to locate Corn for delivery. Cash Corn should reach May price and under, and before the big movement lias culminated large stocks will have been accumulated, sufficient we think, to account for a material de cline from this level, as well as bear us out in our contention, as stated above, that May Corn under present conditions and at these prices is a sale.
