Chicago Tribune-Oman Bee Leased Wire.
New York Nov. 13. After so
troubled week in the market, the first
point of interest in Wall street to
day was the weekly bank statement.
Neither the associated banks nor
tlte federal reserve bank published
their statement until the Stock Ex
change had closed after a day of de
clining prices, 'iut both made an
unexpectedly favorable showing.
The clearing house banks hare re
duced their loans $47900,Q00 during
the week, and '.he sesultant curtail
ment of deposit liabilities were sup
Dlemented bv an increase of $30,700,-
MX)0 in reserve credits at, the Federal
DanK. as a consequence me surplus
rose $33,500,000, not only cancelling
the $1j300,000 defecit of the week be
fore, but bringing the total excess
reserve to the highest figure in five
weeks.
This increase cf reserve credits for
the account of private hanks caused
net increase of $28,400,000 in the fed
eral reserve banks' deposit liabilities,
but reduction .n government de
posits, retirement of $14,100,000 of
the reserve fcank's note circulation
and maintenance cf a practically un
changed cash reserve, left the fatio
of reserve to note and deposit liabili
ties combined at nearly the percen
tage of a week ago.
Increase Iq Credit.
In the banks' reserve secount ( It
was noteworthy thalf a net loss of some
$5 200,000 in actual gold holdings (not
withstanding), moderate Importations of
geld obtained for Europe for the east),
was nearly offsot by Increase of New
fork'a credit In the reserve system's cen
tral gold fund. That means repayment
on balance by- Interior marketa. It Is
probable that the bank position thus dls
closed was the cause for the relaxation
of call money rates on Thursday, but the
statements naturally had no Influence on
mday's stock market, and moreover. It
otill remains for the report of the whole
federal reserve system to show In what
direction, If at all, the country's general
credit position has .changed during the
wetk. . . .
On the Stock Exchange today was
marked by a continuance of the previous
day's weakneaa, The market, as a rule,
rrened lower; there were some temporary
rcovorles, notably tn th railway shares, bu
these were mora than candied by new
decline, leaving net losses for th day,
which ranged from 1 to points for actlvs
stocks. .
Exchanges Gain.
Nothing occurred outside of the Stock
Exchange that could be assigned as a
deflnlto cause for the,, day's downward
movement Exchange on Europe again
teslsted the general tendenoyk sterling,
francs and lire closed quotably Ibove Fri
day, after having made even more con
siderable gains in the early trading. Com
modity markots were steadier, the price
of wheat- reeovr'.ni 4He and closing at
a mt gain of IMo. while cotton, though
temporarily woak again, ended' with no
Important chance from the day before.
rcst6f and the man went dwonedwtndw
Something was made of the volun
tary receivership announced for an In
corporated fish dealing enterprise which
had found Itself crippled by the fall In
prices of Its products, and by the for
bidding money market. But this was
not an Important affair; It was a new
and experimental undertaking, and tho
only general Interest which belonged to
It lay In the fact that an Industry con
cerning which nobody had been talking
had provided the first victim of the
week. , -
Financial sentiment could not be de
scribed as cheerful at the week enl.
Probably the excess of pessimism which
prevailed in Wall street resulted partly
in the lact that the stock exchange had
failed "to grasn the meaning of the sit
uation regarding money, credit and
prices. when that situation, ' some
months ago, was actually at its most
dangerous stage. In other words, the
past week's market has reflected the dis
sipation of illusory and baseless hopes.
It is also natural that attention should
row, as the year-end approaches, be di
rected more to the question of shrunken
values for the Inventories of business
concerns. Fortunately,, there were bank
ora and business men who foresaw what
Is now visible to everyone, and prepared
for l. This is the factor of reassurance
lu the existing situation.

By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, Nov. 13. An oversold
condition was disclosed in wheat
when shorts started to cover. While
there was heavy selling at times,
the rlose was at net gawjs of 1 to
l4 "cents.
Corn was J4 cent lower to V
cent higher. Oats, J4 to B cent
lower;; rye, y2 to 2l2 cents high
er, and barley, 1J4 cents lower.
Liquidation was on sit astl 1 grains
during the last week and, while
the finish was on a rally, wheat
finished with net losses of 10 to 11
cents, March leading. Corn de
clined 6i to 7 cents; oats, 4J4 to
4J-S cents; Rye, 4V2 to 8!S cents
and barely at 7li cents.
General buying of wheat in small
fots by commission houses found
limited selling orders early and
prices advanced 5 to SJ4 cents, but
around $1.8354 for December offer
ings increased materially, and a re
action followed. Failure of a New
York grain and oil house has some
effect on the market as did a report
Chicago people were trying to buy
1,000,000 bushels dark spring wheat
at Minneapolis.
Country Offerings Limited.
The Peceinber-March spread widened
to around 10c at one time, compared
with lo over at the Inslo difference
on Tuesday, but at the last December
was 9o over. Twenty thousand bush
els were sold to go to store at Decern
ber price. Country offerings In the
southwest are limited, farmers holding
tightly. Some export demand was re
ported at the gulf. Corn made Its high
est prices shortly after the opening, when
local shorts covered on the strength In
wheat, but tho upturn was lost later, with
December closing at the same price as on
Friday, gaining o on the May
There was some selling of May and
buying July by the Armour Grain com
pany which widened the difference c
Eastern demand was fair. Omaha re
ported the country as selling new cor.i
freely, but reports from other sections
Indicated farmers were still holding.
December oats - showed fair strength)
early, but later broke sharply to the low
point of the previous day, with the close
thu lowest on the crop. Eastern de
mand showed Improvement. Foreigners
. were reported aftei rye at the seaboard,
but no sales were given. No. 2 on traoit
brought 2o over December.
" PI Notes.
Bearish Influences were amplified to
day by new reductions In prices of com
modities, by failure of a New York oil
and grain house, and by other factors.
Sentiment and general conditions were
regarded as too bearish for bulges- to
hold long, as there Is a lack of confi
dence on the part of the public. At the
same time, grain futures nava. been well
liquidated and there la a nervous feeling
which results In sharp fluctuations. Tho
bulge In, wheat today was only natural
after the' recent heavy break.
Every possible thing to depress prices
Is being brought out In a way regarded
by conservative men as likely to reach
unfavorably .on the grain trade In gen
eral later. Sensational reports sent out
regarding the banks In the country "forc
ing holders to sell" Is a specimen. Ship
ping of grain from the country to termi
nal elevators will require money to carry
regardless of who owns It.
Liberal buying of corn and oats against
weekly bids was a sustaining factor at
the last, but failed to prevent corn from
closing practically at the bottom for De
cember and July. '
Reports from Nebraska Indicate farm
ers In the southwest are likely to sell
corn in the near future and a larger
movement Is expected. This was the

basis for the liberal selling snd the lata
weakness In corn.
Liberal selling of December and buy
ing of March by back-spreaders was a
feature in wheat. The' difference was
10 cents, while recently It was lfj)2c.
Activlng buying of December and sell
ing of May oats was on today at 6 4t
6c. A few days ago the spread was 6
cents. Lewis was a heavy lmyr of May
oats at the close, absorbing all the of
ferings, while Wagner was a big seller.
There was big buying of bids on December
wheat and corn.
