a weeK ago and J0.fl20.0H0 bushels a year
ngo. They are, however, not so great a
emprise as tha American total of 4.312,000
bushels for the week, which bears out the
rlalm thnt there has been a persistent
suppressing of the extant of the American
ex(Hrt sales. The large sales are now be

C B. Murray of the Cincinnati Price Cur

Indicate a gain of about 18 per cent over
last year's record for the corresponding
period, and a gain or nearly 10 per cent In
comparison with 1903, but short of a series
nf years previously. There Is much In
the general situation of the world's wheat
raOa to lend confidence In the maintenance
3t prices for this grain."
The following wire came from the City
tf Mexico: "The shortness of the wheat
rop is greater than was estimated a few
weeks ago and millers are looking for tha
, ntlre removal of the duty on American
ind Canadian wheat by the first of next
year. There are soma stocks of wheat In
;he hands of the large farmers here, but
tot enough to bring down the price, which
a steadily Increasing."

CHICAGO, Oct. TS-Hlgher prices for
wheat at Liverpool had a steadying effect
today on the wheat market here, offsetting
to a considerable extent the effect of
favorable weather for the movement of the
spring sown crop In the I'nlted States.
At the close the December option was off

The wheat market was steady the entire
session, notwithstanding a bearish atti
tude on the part of pit traders who were
Influenced chleflv by clear weather In tha
northwest. Buying of the May delivery by
commission houses was a feature of trad
ing. Another feature was support of De
cember by a leading long. The Arm tone
of the IJverpool market said to be due to
an advance of d in Russian offerings. Im
parted more or less firmness to the market
here from the start. Initial quotations on
December being a shade to Vao higher
at 87cfi 87'4jO. Weekly statistics were con
sidered bearish. The amount of bread
stuff on passnga for the week Increased
1.48K,ttnr bushels, compared with the total
for the previous week. There was an al
most similar amount of decrease for the
corresponding week last year. World's
shipments were liberal, totalling ll.01s.000
bushels against 1.S7S.W0 bushels last week
and lo.920.0ii0 bushels a year ago. The statis
tics In conjunction with weather conditions
In the United States seemed to leave a de
pressing tendency on the minds of many
traders. The bears, however, were held
In check by demand from a prominent bull
who bought on every Indication of a slump
In values. In consequence selling was not
of great volume. For December the range
In price for tha day was confined within
He, the lowest point being reached at Sti4o.
Openlng quotations marked the highest
point of the day. The close was steady
with December selling at 86VfR7c. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
328.000 bushels. Primary receipts were
1,613,000 bushels against 1.3(11.000 bushels a
year ago. Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago
reported receipts of 1.208 cars compared with
1.2S8 cars laat week and 858 oars a year
ago.
A sharp advance tn the price of corn at
Liverpool caused firmness In the market
for that cereal here. Shorts and commis
sion houses were moderate buyers. Weather
throughout the corn belt was ravoranie lor
the movement, hut. nevertheless, local re
ceipts were small. Belling of December by
a local packer was a feature or trading.
The market closed firm. December opened
Lc hla-her to UiiiUo hlirher at 4!Vfi45e. sold
off to 447Ac and closed at 441Vn45c. Local
receipts were 167 cars with sixty-two cars
of contract frarie.
Exceptional Interest was manifested In
the oats market. One of the principal
sources of atrene-th waa a cablegram allcg-
ng that tlie Russian government Had ne
eded to nrohlblt the eiDortatlon of oata

NEW YORK. Oct. 28 -The day s market
Continued the speculative movement In
augurated the latter part or laat week.
The market was broad, active and strong
and showed itself susceptible to soma of
the normal Influences inseparable from a
speculative movement. That Is to say, it
was under the necessity of absorbing the
large amount of profit taking today as
the result of the attractive profits accrued
on last wek's advancea. It was found
that the livelier tone of the speculation
of last week had Induced some growth of
outside demand for stocks. Thla facilitated
the process of digesting 'profits, and It
was accomplished without serious damage
to values. Some of the stocks which were
strong last week were held back by this
process throughout the session, but the
strength nevertheless was wall diffused and
pretty general.
The conspicuous feature of tha trading
was by all odda the prominent part still
Jilayed by the Industrial stocks of the
ower grade tn tha soeculatlon. In tha list
of grains of one point and upwards on
ins nay a transactions, no leas than forty
stocks ana lnaustriais will be round to
figure. While the railroad Hat waa not
lacking In strength, this showing serves
to inrow mat part or the list into tha
background. Only a handful of the most
prominent active stocks moved as much
aa a point, and they were late coming Into
the movement. St. Paul wua tha first nf
the railroads to show strength, which was
coupled with professed expectstlon of an
early announcement of the supposed pro
ject of an extension of the line to -.he Pa
cific. The railroad enulnmant stocks nat
urally held the foremost nlsce In the move
ment In tha Industrials. The extraordinary
demand for all kinds of equipment for
railroads explains the large degree of tha
demand for these securities. The extraordi
nary SUCCeSB Of tha Mtnnnlrn In American
Locomotive In breaking the deadlock In
the speculation laat week and giving the
professionals their first taate of blood,
recommended the fellow members of the
group for experiment on similar lines. Re
ports were in circulation before the open
ing of the stock market giving extraordi
nary figures of the orders received by tha
Preaaed Steel Car company, and. In pur
suance to this Intimation of speculation In
favor of the stock was a leader of tha
upward movement.
The condition of railroad traffic Is pro
nounced to be unnrarwdenteH in the ex
perience of the oldest managers, who pro-
icti i in maaing every effort in their
power to avoid committing their companies
to greater obligations for transportation,
being quit overwhelmed hv the tnmn
offered and Its constantly Increased tide.
nin cunomon or congestion Is said to hava
arrived at a state where general business
is likely to suffer to an extent from de
layed deliveries and insufficient supplies.
The extraordinary efforts required to keep
the heavy volume of freight In movement
and to prevent blockaflea. Is said also to be

CATTLE 'Receipts this morning were the
lightest for Monday for over a month,
only about 260 cars being reported In the
yards. Of this number the big end con
stated of feeders, there being no great
number of fat cattle In sight.
There were hardly enough corn-fed
steers In to make a test of the market, and
what few there were sold at Just about
steady prices. The supply of western
steers that would do for killers was also
small, and they, too. did not sell very dif
ferent from last week's close. The fact Is,
the market this- morning was something
of a surprise. Chicago last week declined
heavily, while prices at this point advanced
so that the market here was generelly re
garded as most too high as compared with
others. Most everyone tn consequence was
anticipating an easier market, but the light
supply of fat cattle prevented It.
Cows and heifers experienced the most
advance last week of anything, and buyers
this morning were all complaining that thlB
market was out of line with others. Hence
they started out to bear prices right from
the first As there was quite a sprinkling
of cows and heifers In the yards, buyers
efforts to bear the market were more suc
cessful than with fat cattle, with the re
sult that while a few cows and heifers
that Just happened to strike some one's
fancy did not sell jmich off th general
market was weak to 10c lower.
Stockers and feeders of desirable quality
were generally steady, and there was a
very fair demand, ss usual the first of the
week. While the trade did not open par
ticularly active there was a fair movement
of the good kinds, and the most of the cat
tle that would answer to that description
changed hands In good season. The prices
paid were generally about the same as pre
vailed at the close of last week.

HOGS-Receipts of hogs wer feirly good
for a Monday, flfty-on care being reported
In the yards. This Is more than three
limes as many as came in last Monday
and is about the same as the run for same
date laat year. The market opened fairly
active on good llht stuff and closed Just
about steady. Choice light butcher stuff
was steady to strong, with a fairly good
demand for that kind and all the good lots
In that grade of hoga found readv aale at
prices that were steady to strong. Hogs
of this kind went at from $5 10 to $5.26.
Packers opened steady with th trad
fairly actlv at the first, but It closed alow
and a trifle lower. Light to medium
weight packers wer more In demand than
the heavy (tuff and brought better price.
The market had a alight lower tendency,
but the fact that with th larger run of
hog In Chicago th market at that point
remained steady helped to keep the prices
up here and hold the market steady. The
top price, 90. at. iaiu lunar was tor nngs
on th light weight order, while the bulk
of the aluft went at from $6.10 to $6.17.
To Bum the whole thing up in as few
words as possible the situation was as
follows: Good light butcher stuff waa
steady lo Btrong, with medium and heavy
weight hogs oiK-ned steady and closed a
trifle lower. Representative sales:

esrlv the buvers were able to
puying ail morning. The large tiuik ot tne
arrivals consisted of feeders with a large
portion of them ewes.
Fat aheep were not very plentiful and St
the same time the demand for them was
active on the part of the packers, who
have been hungrv for supplies of this kind
for the laat week. The market opened
steady on everything desirable wth a
slight tendency lo stronger prices on good
tat stuff. Yearling wethers wet trong
and a large bunch of them sold for $6.00,
which Is the highest price paid for this
kind of stuff this yesr.
There were a large number of feeders
on the market, but In spite of this prices
remained about steady on the choice kinds
of stuff, while the common stuff was not
so active. Iiocal buyers were In the barns
early and had plenty of' orders In hand
and there was also a good alsed aprlnkllng
of country buyers, so that the feeder mar
ket was falny well supported on good
stuff, which went early at good prices. The
later stuff snd the more common grades
were not so strong, but still met with fair
sale. . .

WHEAT
Bine th publicities of our last review, a
umtier of important developments touching
th Wheat situation ksve com to light. Amer
ican Wheat ia practically on a balls wher ax
ports raay be made, but the shorugs of cara
to tramport tha grain to tidewater his proved
S considerable obstacle to a Ire foreign move
ment. Aa s result, stock have increased at
Several of the primary points, detail th
aormal foreign demand. 1
In the Northwest, howevel, th intern
activity of the mill ha a tendency to hold
down undiis accumulations, and th shipment
af Hour ar something tremendoua.
The speculative Wheat market la strongly
supported on each' decline by th most power
ful interests in th trade. This support i
given openly, but without aay blr of trum
pets. Aa a direct consequence ol th Miriness
in our markets, th foreigner ha been ob
liged to com 10 us, and not w to him, as
kas been tlvr ruatom in years psst.
Alarmist rumors of locusts ia the' Wheat
Celds ol Argentina hsv been published snd
denied several time. Tt may be thst th insect
pests will shorten th yield of that important
country, but ft ia too early to mak ( deftnit
statement mi that sobiertj yiisregardiag th
locust stories, wa advis purchases ol Wheat
en condititioni which art mora dearly kfiue
