Coffee Market.
New York, Nov. 16. A steadier feeling
showed Itself In the market' for coffee fu

good deal of scattering liquidation, partic
ularly In December and offerings were
lighter this morning, while there was scat
tered covering. Trade interests were also
credited with buying, possibly to undo
hedges against sales out of the local stock
and after opening 1 to 2 points higher active
months sold 3 or 4 points above last night's
dosing figures. December touched 7.02c and
May 7.43o. Thf close was a shade off from
the best under realising, but steady at a

Cattle There was a pretty liberal run of
cattle here for a Friday, and the market
was usually weak and easier, being mora
or less draggy all around and having a
low tone In spots. Hardly any beet steers
either corn feds or greasers, were on offer,
and trade was quotably steady. Blockers
and feeders also looked mostly steady,
though the movement was slow and prices
hardly as good as they were at the high
time of the week.
Fat oow and heifer buyers wars lower
bidders fight from ths start tills morning
and In the absence of any real choice cows
the market was weak to lower all the way
through. Stock cows and heifers also slowed
up a little bit, though there was no quot
able change In prices. Beef steers have
been selling In about the same notches all
week, At the beet time feeders were
mainly 26c hlghr than at last week's elose,
but they have eased off a little ths last
couple of days, and today's sales did not
show quite that much advance. On the
good to choice cows what little decline there
was Monday has been regulated. Medium
grades of butcher stuff are, however, mainly
2tc lower for the week, and canners and
cutters are from 26o to ae much as 40o
lower than a week ago.

week was on hand today. The market

finally began buying and paid anyway 15
20a better than yesterday. The best price
paid was $17,60, while the bulk of tn sales
went at $17,36017.60. Trade all around was
fairly active. A liberal run of pigs wss on

Sheep There was a fairly liberal run of
sheep and lambs here for a Friday. The
market was considerably slower than at any
other time this week, packer buyers being
rather bearish and holding off until well
along In the morning. What few fat lambs
changed hands looked a litis easier and the
market ruled slow to easier all around.
There were very few feeders here and de
mand was not overly strong, being nomi
nally steady to easier. For the week fat
lambs show an upturn of 2540c, feeder
lambs going anywhere from $1.00 to $1.25
higher than a week ago. Fat and feeder
sheep show sn advance of around 60O76o.

Chicago Provision Market.
Chicago, Nov. 16. Oraln prices ran up to
day, mainly because of a scarcity of'offeT
lngs. Corn finished unsettled, hut to 1
not higher with December 31.20V4 and May
$1.1601.16. Oats gained to lc. There
were declines of five cents to 36c In pro
visions. Bulls In corn put stress on the fact that
stocks of corn at leading terminals
amounted to next to nothing. Old number
two yellow corn here commanded as much
ns $2.40 a bushel, for the little that could
be had, and It was said many farmers In
the soft corn sections had stopped shucking
snd would wait for the grain to dry out
Meanwhile, a jump of oats values to the
highest point yet this seuson tended to
make corn shorts yet more uneasy. On the
ensuing bulge In corn prlcrs, however, lead
ing commission houses became free sellers
and something of a reaction followed. The
late downturns were accompanied by re
ports that more cars were being sent Into
ths corn belt and that an Increase ofar
rlvals here would result.
Unusual activity and strength In the oats
market came about to a great extent
through reports that virtually no responses
h.id been received from overnight bids to
the country.
Provisions lacked support.

NEW YORK STOCKS
"
Operations Smallest and Least
Noteworthy of Any Full Ses
sion for Months on Stock
Exchange.
New York, Nov. 16. Operations on ths
stock exchange today were the smallest
snd In most essentials the least noteworthy
of any full session for several months. Deal
ings barely totaled 235,000 shares, latest re
strictions of ths exchsnge tending further
to limit transactions to aotual purchases
and sales.
Prlra changes were Influenced to some
extent by negative conditions, more than
by actual happenings. More perplexing rail-
road situation, the absence v definite advice
from Russia and conflicting news from ths
Italian front combined to provoks fresh
liquidation.
STbvemenfs wers narrow, however, except
among rails and a few Inactive specialties.
Delaware A Hudson fell 4 points to the nsw
minimum of 93, Pennsylvania, Reading and
other ooalert as well as Pacifies and,
grangsrs reacted I to I pdlnts snd minor
transportations were lower. Active Indus
trials, Including the war group, were little
affected by the reactionary trend of repre
sentative stocks, recording extreme gains of
1 to I points. Motors and shippings dsnotsd
further short covering and coppers made
up tome of yesterday's lost ground. Final
quotations were under top prices, the list
closing with an Irregular tone.
Italian exohsnge was especially weak,
llrrs at 1. 10c approximating their greatest
discount, guilders also showing sojhe da
presslon. Call loans were easier, time
rates remaining firm,
Rands were hesitant, with further heavy
deallnga In Liberty Issues, the 4s falling
from 19.41 to a fresh minimum of 11.74.
while tho 2s rose from 11.68 to tl, s
substantial advancs over the 4s. Total sale
of bonds, par value, aggregated $4,170,009,
United States bonds, old Issues, ware tux
chsnged on call.

DUN'S REVIEW OF TSADI.
Basinet Hendleepprd and Checkered, Dae
to Restraints of War.
Nsw York, Nor. II Dun's tomorrow will
say:
With the Increasing restraints Imposed by
war conditions snd with the many uncer
tainties of the period, business Is handi
capped In various ways and Its progress Is ,
necessarily checkered and Irregular.
Not through lack of confidence, but ow
ing to the drawbaoks In production and dis
tribution and also becauss ot diminishing
supplies of materials and merchandise, some
Important transactions are being held In
abeyance, and the difficulties of filling re
quirements ars not calculated to lessen with
winter drawing nearer and a still greater
oongestlon In transportation foreshadowed.
It Is particularly unfortunats at a time
when the manufacturing forces of the coun
try should be running most smoothly to meet
the extensive and growing war needs and
the large demands from rsgular channels,
that some plants have bean obliged to shut
down through Inability to obtain fuel and
that the works In many directions continue
hindered by labor shortage and other ob
stacles. Where uninterrupted operations
are possible there are comparatively few
Instances where produoers havs not suffl.
elent orders In hand to keep them aotlvaly
occupied and It Is not unoomraon to hear
of ordinary business being turned aside to
make room for the pressing wants ot this
government and Ha allies.
