Russia doing business now, but ports will freeze, up soon and Chicago may load out a big lot before navigation closes and leave the shorts high and dry.

Wet weather In thn United States Imparted some firmness to the situation, but the far tor of apparently greatest Importance was a cablegram fmm Odessa to a well known concern here. The tone of the message was rierhleilly bullish, the Russian government being reported na buying wheat for the re lief of the famine sufferers. It was also claimed that shipments from Russia are de creasing. This Information seemed to rome snorts to activity. Throughout the entire day. demand from shorts constituted the chief source of buying orders In the pit. Of ferings were comparatively small. Cons- auently prices uninterruptedly advanced, trength of cash wheat at Minneapolis wns a factor contributing to the upturn here. For Decmler the highest point of the dnv was reached at 8c. The market closed strong, with December at ft'aHHV. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 125 friO bushels. The visible supply Increased 2.852.000 bushels.

Wet weather In the west was the main reason for firmness In the corn market. Strength of wheat was a factor of lesser Importance. Bhorts were fairly active buy ers throughout the entire session.

December opened a shade higher at 2!V, advanced to 28o and closed at the top. Local receipts were 407 cars. Liquidation of October lard and ribs had a weakening Influence on the provision mar ket.

Oct. 17.-An Increased sup ply of loanable funds which appeared in the call losn money market this morning stnrted the professional operators to buying stocks. The rate for call loans recovered Inter In the day and stocks bought egrliel were sold out. The result was a consider able Increase In the activity In the market over that of yesterday and on several pre ceding days. The day's market forced the opinion thst large waiting speculation Is restrained from entering the market only by the exigencies of the money situation. The large supply of funds early In the day at B per cent wns offered by bankers closely connected with the flotation of the Japanese loan. This led to the inference that the proceeds of the subscriptions paid on Monday were being replaced in the money market, wnen inis supply had been absorbed rates rose sgaln to near the prevailing rate of yesterday. Berlin exchange rose vigorously and the supposition that preparations for remittance of Japanese funds were a factor in the ex change market caused a feeling of distrust of the easing effect caused by the placing of these funds in call loans which presum ably would be only temporary. Keports were current also of maturities railing one on very large sterling loans which had to be covered In the exchange market. Cotton and grain bills continued scarce In the mnrket, so that this extra demand Is effective In running up the rate toward the gold export point. Gold was marked tip further In the London market and the open market discount rate there rose fairly above the bank rate. Sterling exchange re covered a fraction at Paris, but continued downward at Berlin, the discount rate at the latter point, however, yielding a shade. Heavy retrenchment was shown by the Imperial Bank of Germany's weekly state ment. Rates for time money In New York were strong and the bid for six-day losns was advanced to i per cent with tb ask ing rate at fi4 per cent. There were no further transfers of currency to the south through the subtreasury. while from San Francisco there were additional large re ceipts through that Institution. There was some speculative discussion of the proba bility of the Interior demand for currency having been satisfied, but this view did not receive much countenance In banking circles. During the upward movement of prices the coalers continued conspicuous and the high-priced members of the group made new high record prices. Beyond the general prosperity In that Industry there was no news to explain the movement, which was attributed largely to speculative orotations. The meeting being held in this cltv of organisations In the steel trade to consider ndvances In the prices of different lines of finished products gave a firm tone tn the teel Industrials. The Renubllc Steel stocks were helped In addition by gossip regarding the probable dividend action at tomorrow's meeting. The announcement of the entrv of United States Steel and Gen eral Electric Interests Into the American Iyoconiotlve directorate was taken to ex plain the previous advance In that stock. 8 4-ti I The coming meeting of the Amalgamates b l-iz 1 Copper directors for action on the dividend pave (H.'CH.Omn H'l np-, mau.a In thnt stock.

Despite the Bank of Kngland raising the price of gold French comne itlon continues. It Is understood that the Bank of Kngland has received considerable sums of gold, a continuation of which policy will enable It to meet the require ments of Egypt and elsewhere. There was renewed talk today of the Bank of Eng land's discount rate being raised to 5 per cent, but this not generally anticipated his week. Trading on the stock ex change was dull. Irregular and nervous owing to 'he prevailing uncertainty re garding the monetary outlook which de pressed gilt-edged securities. The tendency was undecided and business was narrow, Consols were weak, but closed with a better tone. Home rails were Irregular Americans opened firm and mostly over parity on New York support. Business was moderate and the movements were slight. Prices closed steady at below the best quotations. Foreigners were sluggish. Pe ruvlans were orrered. Russians and Japa nese were easier. Japanese imperial 6s of 1904 were quoted at I01V. BERLIN, Oct 17. Prices on the Bourse today were still depressed owing to the high rates asked for money. PARIS, Oct. 17. Prices on the Bourse to day were Irregular, showing the effect of the foreign monetary tension. At the close stocks were heavy. Russian imperial 4a were quoted at 93.30 and Russian bonds of 1904 at 628. Bank of Germany Statement.

Worst of all, the trains were very late and buyers and sellers were forced to put In a good snare of the forcnon waitina: for th or rival of trains that ought to have been In and unloaded by daylight. For a few days trains have been making better time and the market lias been in better shape. &s nothing contributes more to the making of a dull and unsatisfactory market than the late arrival of stock. This morning buyers were still hungry for fat sheen and lamhs and the market on anything that would do for the packers was sironser and active. Packeis were on the watch for everything suitable for their purposes and they snapped U up on arrival. As high as 35.16 was paid for wethers and ewes and a few 2-year-old wethers sold as high ns fo..r0. Tho market on land kinds of feeders yesterday was Just about steady, but it closed off a little easier on the common light lambs. This morning tliere was fair showing of feeder buyers in the barn and nrlces on the desirable kinds of both sheep and lambs remained Just about steady, but there was somo Inclination 10 neglect the common light lambs, and hence the teellng on them was easier. The fact Is buyers Just now appear to be looking for the hetter eruries if lambs.

On the other nana. Chicago reportea an exceptionally large run for a Tuesday and a lower market. While the light re ceipts here would naturally tend to the making of a higher market, the large re ceipts and lower Chicago market to a cer tain extent nsutranxea ineir eueci. There did net appear to De any great number of fat cattle In the yards, either natives or westerns. The supply of corn fed beef was limited largely to a few scat tering loads of warmed-up cattle. Oood western steers were also In small supply, but there was quite a sprinkling of the medium kinds. While buyers were point ing to the lower market at Chicago and the big run there and generally bidding lower prices at the start, salesmen were noiaing on Bood and hard, with the result that prices were generally well maintained. In other words, the market was Just about steady with yesterday on the desirable kinds at least.. Owing to the late arrival of many of the trains the trade was very much delayed and It was late before a Clearance was effected. When the market openea mo supply or cows and heifers was very smaii, mere being hardly enough in signt to go ine rounds among the buyers. The result was that the market was Just about steady In spite of the unfavorable advices from east ern points. The feeling was general, how ever, that with anything like a large run here prices would nave easea on 111 sym pathy with Chicago.
