Iftrg", but shortage ot cars makes exporters timid about rraking contracts. December closed i 4to44',,o, old December at 44ic, May at 44(x44c and July at 440.. There was a heavy demand for oats at prices He higher. December closed at JOc, May at 31o and Julv at 80Ve. Liverpool cloned d higher on wheat and 71 -tu nigner on corn. The car situation throughout the country has reached an acute stage. Every west ern road In short of cars and snippers are complaining. The roads have anywhere from to 1.500 more cars than last year, but the traffic Is largor than ever was known at this season. With the millions of bushels of corn and oats that have been old for December and later export there Is a prospect of losses for western ship pers and seaboard exporters. Clearances were 2GS.0UO bu. of corn, 171,000 bu. of oats, 139,000 bu. of wheat and 40,000 bbls. of flour. Primary wheat receipts were 1,063,000 bu. and shipments 316,000 bu., against receipts last year of 1,114,000 bu. nd shipments of 625,000 bu. Primary corn receipts were 441, two bu. and shipments 467,000 bu., against receipts laet year of 244.000 bu. and shipments of 282. CM bu. Des Moines wired: "Thr. rush of oats from this state eastward Is over. We are getting Mitjlo more than Chicago prices to shin south. Oats are going from western Iowa to Missouri river points for shipment ior export via tne guir. " Rankin of Chicago says about oats: "Ex port demand for oats in Chicago Is phe nomenal, with the bulk of the recent bids for shipment bv the middle of next month. Shippers, however, were unable to get the cars. There is not a shipping house in the traae nere mat nas not already so mucn sold that It Is timid about selling more. The oats are held In elevators awaiting the cars, thus making the total stock In private elevators look large. The train capacity from Kansas soulh to the gulf could be quadrupled without trouble It rolling stock and motive power were available. Bales of 240,000 bushels of oats were made Monday and reported yesterday for export from Iowa points by way of the gulf. Oat stocks In all positions In Chicago are 11.670,0o0 bushels, the largest on record, exceeding the previous high mark of last year by 692.000 hunhr n." A prominent Duluth exporter says the de mand for grains and flour is unftllable and almost unbelievable, Omaha Casft Sales.

Damage by locusts to the Argentina wheat crop was one of the main factors creating a strong market for wheal here today. Wet weather In the United States was another factor. At the Close wheat for December delivery was Sc. Oats show a gain of o. Corn a provisions are practically unchanged. The wheat market opened firm, Iecember being up a shade to 'ul4o at Mfi7r. General rains over a large part of the United Stafs formed the chief source of firmness. During the first half hour the market experienced an easier tone, owing tn selling by commission houses and by the leading long. For December the lowest point of the day was reached at 8Ko. Upon withdrawal of offerings from the bull leader the market quickly recovered its early firm ness and with persistent buying by snorts firmness was supplanted by decided strength. The demand from shorts was largely the outcome of a report from Ho- sarlo claiming that locusts are making serious Inroads In the crops In the province of Santa Fe. Strength of cash Vheat In the northwest helped to stimulate demand for options here. Late In the session that mar ket was further strengthened by a report to the effect that famine Is threatened in parts of India on account or drouth. Tne highest point of the sec-ion for December was touched at 8e. The market closed strong, with December st 87flS7Ic. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 319. 000 bushels. Primary receipts were l.OKK.000 bushels, against 1,114,000 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 619 cars, against 606 cars last week and 776 a year ago. The corn market was firm throughout tne entire session. Cold, wet weather, light re ceipts and a good export demand were In fluences contributing to the strength. A leading bull was an active buyer, com mission houses also bought freely. The market closed firm. December opened un changed to a shade higher at 44c to 44 44e, sold up to 46c ana ciosea at m4hwc. Local receipts were 128 cars, with 41 of con tract grade. Excellent export and shipping demand continued to be the chief Influences In the oats market. Sentiment In the pit was quite bullish.

The market continued to show a tendency to Immobility or to vary narrow fluctuations with a disposition to return 10 a given level, as there was some early pressure against the market today the de clining tendency was contested by push ing up a selected list of stocks. American Locomotive was the feature of the day and the Indifference of the general market to so conspicuous a feature made a striking demonstration of the im- passlveness of the speculation. This stock has engendered a Considerable advance of late, but Its movement came to a stop yes- tenlay with the announcement of rhina in the directorate. Renewed Importance seemed to be attached to these changes today which eliminated a conspicuous stock market element from the board by the substitution of Oeneral Electric and United States Steel stocks. There was abundant news also of the enormous requirements of railroads for locomotives and. In fact, all kinds of equipment. With occasional setbacks Locomotive made successive Jumps on very heavy absorption, the ex treme advance reaching 6 points. Other railroad equipment stocks and the electrical Industrials showed moderate sympathy. Reading also made a show of strength at one time In the first resistance to the de pression and current reports of further extensive combination of anthracite Inter ests were used to help the stock. The supporting points In the market were of moderate effect In contesting the general sagging tendency. The (V.gproval of several of the day's rumors pointed to operations by a bear element in the trading. These Included re ports of the illness of J. Plerpont Morgan and of financial difficulties caused by the collapse of Chicago Subway stocks. The reports were sufficiently definite to call for publlo repudiations. There was a reaction In discounts In Berlin and an advance In sterling exchange at Paris and the ques tion of a further decrease In the Hank of England discount rate tomorrow was left open. The bank has succeeded In arrest ing the demand upon London for gold by raising the price of the metal and securing open market supplies for Its own vaults. This being the case the threatened rise In the bank rate may be avoided. Foreign ex change made a further notable advance In the market, serving to strengthen the supposition that Japanese funds In New York were In course of remittance to Lon don. The statement of this country's for eign trade for September, however, threw light on the previous strength of foreign exchange. The value of Imports rose more than $18,000,0(0 over the preceding Septem ber to $102,138,031, a record for a month's Imports. At the same time the value of exports Increased less than $2,000,000, leav ing the excess value of exports of only $33,867,791, while the trade balance In our favor for September of last year amounted to over $60,000,000. There were no changes of Importance In the local money market, but New York exchange at Chicago slipped back to paT after having ruled at a premium for several days. The announcement of the closing of a national bank In Allegheny made a depression on sentiment. The closing was easy with the general list at about the lowest. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value. $3,246,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on call. Following wero the sales and range of prices on the Stock exchange today: Bales. High. Low.

Totals 6,729 7.144 18.99S CATTLE Receipts this morning were only moderate, a few over 200 cars being re ported In the yards, which was consider ably smaller than a week ago. For the three days, however, the receipts have been Just about the same as for the corre sponding period of last week. As was the case yesterday, a very considerable pro portion of all the cattle here consisted of feeders. Range beef steers were far from being plentiful, there being only a moderate sprinkling of cattle good enough for killers. There were a few loads of Corn-fed steers, tn fact more than there have been here for some days ot late, and there were among them some pretty decent cattle. There was fair demand on tne part 01 local packers and the market was Just about steady with yesterday. The trade, nowever, was de layed by the late arrival of several trains, so that It was well along toward midday bofore very much was done toward effect ing a clearance. Cows and neirers were not in very large supply, while there was a good demand. The result was that good fat cows and heifers were generally a little stronger than yesterday and were free sellers. The com mon and medium tunas soia at juri aoout steady prices. The trade as a whole was In very fair condition as viewed from a seller's standpoint. There were a good many stockers and feeders in the yards, but there was also a very fair demand on the part of local oper ators and speculators. The general market on feeders was just about steady, but at the same time some of the best heavy cattle, which wore sought after, com manded good, strong prices, and the same was true of yearlings of good quality.

The fact is they have not looked very large any day this week so far, but still the total for the three days amounts to about 1W cars, as against 129 for the corresponding days of last week. Two weeks ago there arrived at the yards during the first half of the week 236 cars. B01110 of the sheep trains ar rived at the yards in fair season this morn ing, but a considerable proportion of the receipts did not put In an appearance until late In the forenoon. The market this morning was In a good healthy condition and entirely In sellers' favor. Packers were again anxious for supplies and anything in the way of de alt able killers was fully steady with yes terday. In some cases stuff that Just hap- Sened to suit the requltements of buyers rought prices that looked a little higher. nanise ewes soid as nign ss o.w, wmcn Is the top price paid so far this season for that kind of stock. Yearlings brought $5.75 and other stuff In proportion. The fact Is desirable kinds of fat sheep nave been tending upward this week and are now bringing quite a Ilttlo more money than at the clone of last week. The supply of feeders In the yards yes- terdsy was practically cleaned up before the close of the market last night, so hat with only a moderate run this morn ing the market was In a good, healthy condition. There was a fair demand both rom the country and from local buyers, so that the market remained Just about teady with yesterday.
