Nervousness and Ir regularity today characterized the corn market while traders watched for an expected official announcement from Washington that hostilities had ceased. Ths market closed unsettled, 3o net lower to 6c advance, the latter for No vember, with December $1.19 to $1.20, and January, $1.21 to $1.21. Oats finished c off to c up, and provisions varying from OOo decline to $1 advance. Bears In corn clearly had tha advantage most of the timet owing to general anti cipation that an armistice with Ger many would be signed with the least possible delay. Especially during the first half of the session, urgent orders almost without exception were to sell, and buy ing support displayed a noticeable lack of vigor. Bulletins, telling of the spread of revolution in Germany and about chances of a. suspension of the draft In the United States, acted as an evident handicap on the bulls, but were partly offset later by gossip that the shipping board would make every effort now to rush food and other supplies to Europe. The November crop report from Wash ington proved to be substantially Identi cal with advance estimates here. Oats showed more firmness than corn i a result of Improved shipping de mand. Provisions swayed with corn. Initial declines were more or less overcome. Corn No. 1 yellow, $1.37; No. 3, yel low, $1.309131: No. 4 yellow, $1.231.28 Oats No. t white, 704 il c; standard, 7173c.

Subsequently, reports that a suspension of the draft was being considered at Wssblngton and that revolution was spreading In Germany tended further to handicap the bulls and to prevent lasting rallies.

Disturbing Influences Treated by False Armistice Report Reflected In Oper ations; Sentiment Confused. New York, Nov. 8. The stock market continued at the outset of today's more moderate operations to reflect the dis turbing Influences created by yesterday's armistice hoax. Leaders lost 1 to 5 points, hut soon recovered, in numerous instances being succeeded by material gains over the previous day's hlrhcst quotations. Wall street is almost unanimously of the opinion that the war is ended, but manifests considerable confusion of senti ment In proceeding to adjust its affairs to peace conditions. War stocks were alternately heavy and strong, ending in the main at materlnl gains on announcement of the placing of additional orders by the government for various supplies, especially railway equip ment. Ralls held their own, being the first is sues to rebound from the heavy opening. Furl her accumulation of low-grade shares was again the striking feature of that division. Restricted money conditions did not pre vent a renewal of activity; presumably pools In oils, motors and tobaccos and in the later dealings Baldwin Locomotive American Loocomotlve, American Car and various specialties made substantial re sponse to speculative buying. United States 8teel was consistently Ir regular In Its less active movement be tween the low of 101 and high of 103. closing at a net gain of a small fraction. The demand for metals seemed to be founded on tangible ground, but gains in that quarter were reduced by the general realizing of the last hour Sales amounted to 870,000 shares. Domestic as well as foreign bonds for feited In varying degree their gains of the previous day, Liberty Issues, however, displaying firmness. Total sales (par value aggregated 313,275,000. Old Untted States bonds were unchanged on call. United 8tates Steel's further 'recovery tp 103, gains of 1 to 3 points In low priced motors and substantial advances In Baldwin Locomotive, American Locomo tive, American Car and other equipments and war shares were the chief features of the strong but moderate noon hour. -- Number of sales and quotations on lead ing stocks: Closing Sales.
