--day, and that delivery, as well as fur
Poetmber, closed lie hfgher. . Wheat was
dull and closed.unchanged. Oats at (he
ciose were V^c higher and provisions a
shade to 5c lower. The corn pit was
crowded to the last inch at the openingl,
other markets being- almost desertft'l by
traders. November opened at 45c to
4;"' C. and soon touehen 47c under heavy
bidding, but Mr. Phillips, who is cred
*lted with controlling that option, sold a
few 5.Q00 bu lots and a reaction followed.
A sale-, was made at -He, but it was a
Unite, as the market really stood at 44% c:
The market became much quieter toward
the close. Acceptances were light and
■weather c^ndi lons were rj-rorted aa ag-a'n
biing' unfavorable. December corn sold
between 35%@56c, and SG^c, closing y £ c
higher at 3G:, lsC. November closed %c
higher at 45UC. ■ Receipts were 311 cars,

Wheat ruled dull and featureless. Ca
blets were firm and receipts light. These
factors caused a botter tone following
easiness at the start, when the bearish
ness of local traders and the absence of
commission house trade was felt. Decem
ber opened a shade to lower at
71V-;C to 7114 c, touched 71c. rallied to 71%
on eat-ii sales of 321,000 bu. and closed
steady and uncharged at 71%@71Jbc. New
York reported twenty-five loads taken for
export. Seaboard clearances in wheat.
and Hour wore equal to 451.000 bu. Pri
mary receipts aggregated! C76.G00 bu. eom
jppared, with 1,153,000 bu last year. 'Minne-
apolis and Duluth reported 360" cars,
against Sjli last week and 705 a > < :1 .■ 990.
Local receipts 1 were 110 cars, one of con
ti act'grade.
Oats stuck in • the same old rut. and
made no attempt to ;a:et out of ii. Prim s
scarcely stirred, but the general tone was
-firm in sympathy with corn. December
s-old- beiweciv 21% and 22c, and clo-scl
%c higher at 2i"sti22c. Receipts were M
cars.
Provisions were, neglected and dull. The
market opened lower on heavy hot; re

Fluctuations were narrow, and the close
fairly:" steady. January pork closed Dc

Flax—The market opened higher, and
excited; there was a rush to buy and a
10c advance was scored in the first hour.
The strength started simultaneously here
and In Duluth, and both markets moved
up, Minneapolis occasionally leading-. A
good many buying- orders were received
here just before the close yesterday, more
came this morning-, -and ■ this active de
mand seared the shorts, who made haste
to cover, helping along the rise. No
vember touched $1.72, against last night's
close at $1.62. Duluth December lumped
from $1.61, reaching $1.70, and May went
from Sl.ei^ to $1.70. Trading here was
around December price for spot No 1,
but there was practically no No. 1 seed
in sight, and little active business in
that grade. Demand" came principally
from shippers, who took the best lots
promptly. Midway in the session the- c i
was partial reaction and a decline of I
about 2c from top points. Rejected flax i
sold from $1.58 to $1.62, the best rejected
snowing better prices relatively, and the
&aaie was the case in no grade, where the
best lots brought good -prices, sob.c of
grades going at $1.40. In the poorer lots
mere was weakness, hot no grade selling
at $1. Minneapolis •received 58' cars
against 37 last year. Duiuth had 71 cars

NEW YORK, Nov.. 22i-There was the
same old ebb an-d ilOw in today's stock
market that have characterized it for
several days past Neither the beginning
nor the end, however, was so well delin
ed as they were yesterday. The cur
rents and cross currents were very con
fusing all day, and made it difficult to
analyze the tone, except during a period
j of pronounced reaction, which developed
after the opening, and an equally pro
nounced recovery before the close. The
close itself was reactionary and weak
under the influence of a violent break
of 4% points in American Steel and Wire.
That stock got up to 51 in the general
rally of the market, but plunged down
ward to 46% in a few minutes, and clos
ed about there with heavy offerings still
coming on the market. The professional
I traders in, Wall street have worked for
some time in the faith that they were
i following the bull leadership of a com
i bination of forces between the most not
able speculator on the street and a new
er and almost equally dashing operator
who made his mark, and a deep orie at
I that, in the speculation in steel stocks
during the last year and. a half. .The
i break in steel and wire, coming near
] home to this alleged speculative com
bination, served to unsettle sentiment
very considerably at the close. The bear
contingent succeeded in pretty well get
ting the upper hand early in the day.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
South K.t Paul, Nov. 22.
CATTLE— cattle of all. kinds
&re selling 15 to 20 cents lower than last
week. The first drop came Monday, and
today there was a second decline on re
ports of a heavy slump on the Eastern
markets. The demand is good, however,
at the decline and packers are taking
everything offered. Veals are in good
demand, but are t^ selling $1.00 a
hundred less than : t\% a^weeks ago. Best
calves are selling . n'owpu. $5.00. We have
had some good butch^^ow stuff on the
market this week, j bsJfcathe steers have.
averaged very commtui^Jli the stock cat
tle division there luas>^J?n comparative
ly little activity \vith:^hea\ y receipts.
The market has been popping steadily
all week and today "ptiSes are 25 to 50
1 cents lower than last? week. The best
cattle are selling 25-cents lower and the
common are hard to move at ; the 50-cent
drop. Some "buyers have been on the
market, but all 'have been looking for
good quality stuff and sales have been
almost impossible unless buyers were al
lowed to sort and sort closely. Stock
and feeding bulls . are selling 10 to 15
The market opened with price currents
moving in whirling eddies. There was a
continued strong- absorption in some of I
yesterday's stronsr stoc*6', the.local trac
tions!' and St. Paul * Jjeiji^ r conspicuous.
A later strong ?&emsma* ' aweitdiped for
r Chesapeake & Ohio in buying-, Mid to be
I for Philadelphia ai:co*mt. 5^ This- stock
{ moved up an extreme,l'3- .This move
: merit, however, was : not -sufficient to
I discourage the prMlit-taking, and bear
I pressure, which had.?.TSfeenV more or less
! manifest, especially hi. the steel stocks, j
j from the opening-, and jTtlie-whole market i
; fell away without: much ..support to the I
I lowest of the day. : Thf- rally was'inaug- !
urated in St. PaulSSgThat stock was I
carried to 130 and the other Grangers. j
Sugar, the local tractions stocks, and
j General Electric made some response. !
jAn effort was made to continue the
movement by tne time-honored device of
bidding up the Van-derbilts, but this i
proved unavailing in I face of the acute j
weakness shown by the steel stocks. The .
news of the day was little regarded.
Some ' disappointment was felt at the
cessation of yesterday's heavy demand
from London. That ceMer turned seller
i today to the extent of about 40,000 shares
on balance; There was & failure of ex
pected heavy demand.for stocks from
the West, whici* was cut.off from wire
j communication yesterday. The bears
I were also inclined to ; make capital out
of the reported dispute among the dip
lomats at Pekin, and their tactics were
shown in the circulation of a rumor that
the Czar was dead. The fact that these
rumors were given some-weight and that
the Kruger demonstration in Marseilles
and the reported injury to Gen. Roberts
had an influence, tend to show that the
movement of the market,was to a large
extent on sentimental.'grounds.. The
money market showed no signs of any
stress from the large speculation and
was appreciably easier on-the large re-
I ceipts of 'Australian 1" gold here during
the week. Sterling exchange hardened,
on the large selling of stocks by London.
It is conjectured that sterling exchange
is being accumulated with a view to New
York subscriptions to foreign loans.
The bond market was notably strong in
spots, but weakened at other points.
Total sales, par value. $3,515,000. ;

London, Nov. 22.— weekly statement

( lower with a fair demand a.t the decline.
j There is but little possibility that the
| stock cattle market will improve in the
near future.
HOGS— The week opened witlh a strong
and active market, but on Wednesday
prices dropped 10 to 35 cents and today
thci c was an additional drop of 5 to TV?.
; cents. The receipts hnve been very
! heavy, yesterday's run breaking all
| records for daily receipts. Considering
! the heavy receipts tho bogs have been
! well handled. Today prices ranged t"r;rn
I $4.20, for rough throw-outs, to $4.55 for
fancy light hogs. Several small bunch
es of ' extra fancy butcher hogs were
sorted out for Eastern packers at $4.62%,
but these prices were IM; cents above the
actual markf t. See record of sales in
market report.
SHEEP—There has been a litUe slump
in sheep and lambs ranging from 10 to 15
cents on stock and feeding stuff to &
cents on fat stuff. Choice fat lambs sold
today at $4.50@4.60. fat ewes, $3.10; fat
yearlings, $".90. Good quality stock and
