SUMMARY OF THE DAY'S TRANSACTIONS IN THE MARKETS
WHEAT SLUMPS ON
PROFESSIONAL TRADE
Market Sharply Lower Weak
ness in Narthwest and Out
look for Peace
Wheat slumped badly, following the lead
of Minneapolis. The close was weak and
nervous and at bottom, prices. y
-'■ For a while yesterday, it seemed as if
the stock-list was about to break, ? and
while several issues lost appreciably on
the day, the close was fairly steady. .
What the Brokers Say ,.'■''.
M. Doran & Co.'s grain letter:
Wheat was again nervous, with trade
wholly professional; The early rumor of
a sale to millers -of 250,000 bu- of hard
wheat, which was confirmed later, gave
prices, a substantial upturn at : one time,
but advance" lost the last hour, when mar
ket developed a very weak < tone, selling
considerably below yesterday's closing fig
ures. The cash news on the whole had a
little better tone. Minneapolis reported a
better demand, Omaha advises a sale of
No. 2 hard equal to $121 here, and Kan
sas City . values for same grade I are on
a basis of $1.16 to $1.16%, Chicago. The
ruling prices at outside points hold no
hope of an accumulation of cheap wheat
here. The movement was lighter than a
year ago, both in the Northwest and in
aggregate. We have had a pretty sharp
slump in wheat the past few days and
think it a purchase. Liverpool was. %d
higher. Estimated receipts for tomor
" row, 78 cars. ' • ....
Corn —The early jump in corn, more
especially in December, may be attributed
to realization on part of shorts v of the
significance in view of limited supply of
the urgent demand today for old crop for
shipment at big premiums. Another fac
tor at the outset was the strength in
future and spot markets at Liverpool,
the advance in cable offers for Novem
ber shipment and strong tone permeating
the market advices. Prices gradually
tightened as reports of further sales at
-- larger premiums came in. Four and three
eighths cents over the December was
realized on one lot and 7c over c. i. f.
Buffalo was paid for No. 2 yellow. In
- cash crowd every car of the light receipts
was eagerly taken, the market ruling
from %c to* lc higher. Receipts here are
hardly sufficient to supply local consump
tive demand. The firmness in* May was
' sympathetic. The discount under Decem
ber widened to 3%c at one time. Weather
conditions are entirely satisfactory. Husk
ing returns substantiate the larger crop
estimates. Country offerings of old corn
are nothing, hut are. freer of new crop
for deferred shipment. Don't be short of
, December under existing conditions. May
will sympathize to some extent with any
advance in the near . deliveries. Liverpool
closed %@%d higher. The spot market,
after opening Id higher., closed unchanged
to %d higher. Estimated receipts, 62;
cars.
Oats—The interest taken was small, but
the tone was firm, led by the December.
The-pit crowd favored the bull side. Re-
Jj ceipts. .were light everywhere, and a fair
shipping, demand exists. Receipts sold at
%c to %c advance, with the shipping in
terest the chief buyers. Estimated re
ceipts, 81 cars. . > -
Provisions The market was irregular
on a light trade. The early selling was
by commission houses, based on the large
run of hogs and 10c break at the yards.
Local operators covered, rallying the entire
list. The close* was not materially
- changed from yesterday. - Estimated hogs
tomorrow, 24.000.
J. C. Geraghty & Co.'s stock advices:
Logan & Bryan— market Is holding
strong. So far we doubt if there has been
g§ much pyramiding. . The volume of business
has been large for some time and -stocks
... have been distributed very- well. While
.we believe in higher prices later on ow
ing to sound business-conditions, improv
ed demand for steel and iron and a large
export business for corn, .steel and copper,
we feel, in view of the large advance we
have had without any setback that one
should be cautious about buying at the
top. Reactions will come on which we
would buy good stocks. The political sit
uation in this country cannot be called a
factor. •?--,?,; - '
Northern Securities opened 117, high
117%. low 115%. last sale 117, closed 116%
@117%. Sales 6,000.
Paine, Webber & Co.—Our market was
again broad and active, with prices: prac
tically unchanged from last night's close.
The exception was Old Dominion, which
advanced 3% and closed at the top. Both
the Boston and New York markets had
tire appearance of being very weak, but
the way prices stood up shows that the
buying is good. The majority, of peo
pie here are very bullish on the situation,
but most of them have sold their stock
and would like to see a reaction in order
to get in again. The feeling was strong
on the metal situation, and that will pre
vent any extensive ? break in the copper
stocks and that any further rise in cop
per will put prices higher than they have
yet been. Do not be afraid to buy any of
the good copper stocks whenever weak.
Dick —The market has ■ been ex
tremely erratic today, with violent re
coveries following still more violent
breaks. At times. the whole market was
very weak, but at critical times it re
covered support and was rallied. One. of
those' rallies was in progress at the close,
so that net changes were irregular and
many of them small. Favorable advices
regarding the British-Russian situation
served to help 7 sentiment .somewhat in
the afternoon, similarly the absence of
further gold engagements and the con
tinued ease in money strengthened bul
lish confidence. The most conspicuous
shares were Union Pacific,' St. Paul, Steel
preferred and Rock . Island. The latter
made a very, sharp rally in the late trad
ing. Atchison and Missouri Pacific were
strong at times,. but closed unchanged.
Very heavy selling was seen in Erie and
in the steel stocks. •
O'Connor & Van Bergen's New York
stock letters:
Watson & —Today's speculative
dealings have been suggestive of more
or less uncertainty in the minds of both
the trading public and those who have
been mainly instrumental in bringing
prices to their-* present level. The market
cannot be called weak; in fact, only in
spots was any lack of firmness of under
tone- noted. Mr. Hill made rather con
servative remarks this afternoon, checking
a rally just starting, but had no other
effect, as his views were already known
and his denial of any Northern Securities
settlement has been made several times
before. We are advised by people who
have foreign connections that a much
easier feeling has developed - abroad as
the day passed as regards the North sea
incident, and it is already being forgot
ten as a speculative influence.. General
conditions have not changed, the market
has had a good shakeout and once as
sured that the European cloud has blown
over, we believe stocks can be ? taken
back moderately on all recessions with
chances well in favor of making sub
stantial profits, perhaps quickly. •-'
Van Emburg & Atterbury—The mar
ket was very active, with frequent fluctu
ations and a general tendency to lower
level. It opened on higher London prices,
made from here, advanced further quick
ly and made a better basis for a selling
movement, which assumed large propor
tions during the morning and . caused a
sharp decline. Throughout the day the
tone was in marked contrast to that which
has prevailed for several weeks. * -"Rallies
were feeble and met stocks. , Reaction
was not unexpected and was due to the
weak speculative conditions | caused gby
the indiscriminate speculative buying of
late from sellers of excellent character,
and further weeding out will "*.' help the
situation. There were several exceptions
in the last hour to the prevailing tone.
Of these Rock Island alone can be said to
have exerted an influence in steadying
others. The close was irregular and rath
er flat, as a rule.

:*,;.: . . :yzyyZ7iy.yyy- yyyy
Steady Tone Prevails at the Opening ; and
a Small Advance Follows—Heavy Liqui
dation Breaks the Market '.?-''
CHICAGO. Oct. 26—The apology by ;
Russia for the shelling of "the British fish
ing boats was largely the cause of a weak
wheat market nere - today. A■" break in
cash prices was an important factor. At;
the close ' both the - December and May
options s were off %c. Col* •is up %%c.
Oats show a gain of %c. Provisions are
practically* unchanged. -; ; ?"; '
; Small ... receipts ■ and comparatively • firm
cables caused a steady tone • In the J mar
ket at the opening. December was a shade
lower ;to a shade ,higher.- at y $1.14% to
$1.14%. May was unchanged to %c high
er at $1.13% to $1.13%. On .a.fair demand
from commission houses and pit -traders .
the market advanced -a; trifle, : December
selling up to $1.14% and-May to $1.13%. j
Selling supposed to for a -leader: of the
bull crowd caused a moderate*reaction.
December declining to $1.14%. May sold
off to $1.13%. Trading was rather quiet un
til 7 late in the ■-. day, the > market; lacking
any definite news either bullish or bearish.
From -,"$1.14% ■• December : advanced to
$1.15% on covering by some who sold yes- ■
terday. The demand for May was less ac
tive and in * - consequence .; that delivery
showed more resistance to an advance.
Late in the day the market broke sharply
under heavy liquidation. During the I lat
ter part. of the session a.'persistent re
port had been in circulation, that a quarter
million bushels of cash wheat had been
sold here at 2%c under the December
price. 'Naturally this rumor, had a de
pressing ? influence upon speculative, trad
ing. An advance lin consols and a re
ported backdown by. Russia was an even
greater . blow to holders, especially those
\ who had expected i further « war - scares.
Late weakness, at Minneapolis also had
considerable influence on* the market
here. After selling off to $1-13% -Decem
ber closed at $1.13%@1.14. May declined
to $1.12%. The close-was at $1.12%. .
,Clearances of flour? were 7,000 barrels.
Primary receipts were 1,043,800 bushels
compared with 1.389.700 ; bushels a year
ago. Minneapolis. Duluth" and Chicago
reported receipts of 735 " cars, against 776
cars last week and ,861 cars a year ago. .
..-' ~ Corn Is Up.- '
In corn an active commission house de
mand, for. both December and May deliv
eries caused a strong tone. Shorts also
were . liberal purchasers. - .Trading was
more active than for some time past. M
bullish cash 'situation was an Important
factor in speculative, trading. December
opened %c to %c higher at* 49% cto
49% c, advanced to 50c and closed at 49% <$
49% c. Local receipts were 72 cars, -with
5 of contract grade.
Oats were dull but firm. A strong un
dertone existed in sympathy with higher
prices of corn and with the falling off of
receipts. Cash houses and elevator in
terests were the best buyers."' After open
ing %c higher at 29% c. -December ad-
vanced to 29% c and closed,at i29%c, Lo- j
cal receipts were 67 cars. '■'.-- --.--,-'y->
--■ ■ As a result of a 10c decline in ■ the price
of hogs an easier tone -prevailed in pro
visions at the opening, with '-; all products
showing slight losses. The initial .decline
was all regained on a fair demand from
pit traders and small packers. .Late in
the day sentiment again became easy on
moderate profit'taking. At the close aIT
January products were down 2%c. Pork
closed at $12.30, lard at $7.07% ; and ribs
at $6.40. '•' V ., ~ X-y,y ..-7-7-

promptly after the opening and looked
weak all through the first hour of trading.
No buying of importance was felt in the
pit, - and considerable - selling * came from
commission houses carrying long Decem
ber for. small-lot traders. Bull news was
not : very plentiful, nor was there 'any
thing strikingly bearish. 7 The feeling.was
one of hesitation and disposition to work
for moderate - decline- The- bears felt
that after the - - recent ?-' long period of
strength a decline was in ' order, and since
the market is now on a price level where
changes of 3@sc are relatively no greater
than lc - or 2c changes (j on ? the.'.■ level of
former, years, it was figured that the mar
ket ought to slide off sc, and since $1.21
was recent high point the pit crowd \ fixed
upon $1.16 as the figure December would
probably-, strike ,-. before it made Ia -- stop.-
The firmness abroad, however? and light
er receipts here/turned the market up
from around : $117 ?to $1.17%, and ? held
it for a time. Vague rumors of Armour
buying began to come, • and some of % the

FEWER STOCKS SELL
BUT THE; MARKET SHOWS GREAT
BREADTH AND VARIETY
List Is Subjected to Searching Liquidation
- and Severe Inroads .'ln Prices' Result —
.Closing- Is Heavy ? " '*. ??
'J NEW -.YORK,'"' Oct. ; 26.—Dealings In
stocks today -were not up to yesterday's
record, y but the : dimensions - and ? the '- as
. tonishing 2 breadth '■y and r. variety -r of .* the
market = were well y maintained. The"- list
was subjected to a pretty • searching liqui
dation: and' severe • inroads upon * prices re
sulted, but the benefit 7to the -. market's
health of this • process began to |be shown
ian * the . latter ; part * of/ the day." when there
were substantial' recoveries -. from - the low
level. The reactionary- course •of the mar
ket ■■ was largely • due •to • technical causes.
As * much of f the ; recent buying, has . been
due wholly to the j fact | that prices I were
moving, up and-.were; expected to continue
' to Ido so, ; yesterday's ? demonstration that
• the : advance;was checked induced' "Telling.
Yesterday's- performance |in Union Pa
cific. and the - inadequateness ?of the news
to ' explain .it . awakened ' uneasiness ow
ing • to; the half** hysterical • character of
the '■ movement" and 7 its ? revelation of . the
emotional nature .of ■ every large operation
in i the market.:" ■ :'.'•'"-r Ziyi.'. - :
Tlw, psychological state which prompts
an indefinite?buying is quickly altered by
a simple change *in . the' direction. of prices
and: considerations of intrinsic value have
no force to prevent this change. There Is
the additional factor of forced sales on a
reaction -. by the ? wiping out of - narrow
I margins' and the uncovering ; of: stop loss
orders placed below the market and which
are always in unusual volume after a rise
in ■ prices. -All these forces operated in
causing .. the ? ; weakness today. .But
consideration was -also -given ' today
to the more .- material factors - of , the
•disappointing '. quarterly - statement iof the
United States . Steel corporation, ■ the irri
tating tension '■ between Russia \ and I Great
Britain and the prospect of a considerable
gold export movement.. It -is enough to in
dicate the disappointment of .- the highly
speculative element' with- - the United
States Steel , report .to know these, reports
were circulated on the i Stock y Exchange
yesterday j that the quarterly net earnings
would amount to $23,000,000. ??
- Shocks Sanguine Feeling ?
1 While the $18,773,932 reported was; near
J the ; expectation in more j reasonable '- and
well-, informed quarters, the low figure
of : the - unfilled -- orders on hand was h a
shock- to -. the * sanguine * feeling which has
grown up regarding - the revival .in : the
steel industry ; and the ■ additional informal
assurances given by the chairman fof the
board \of * the * further", expansion *in orders
since - the . turn i of;; the : quarter -• proved; in
sufficient 7to* overcome this •=: sentiment.
Selling 7 from ■'■ the steel .-■ centers and: from
•the -West -was very /; large, ■ 7 both vof r the
United States - Steel stocks* and-' the . Pa
cifies.and Pennsylvania-" showed?, the usual
sympathy with United States Steel. Lon
don'; also- sold'freely here. While ;it ■ was
believed that the?_cuteness. of the Anglo-
Russian? crisis was.assuaged for the pres
ent, ;-ithe* situation was felt-'.to be dan
gerous and liable td some explosive * epi
sode which -. might < throw it - out of. the
power.* of . the I diplomats to control. - Veiled
intimations of < undisclosed? developments
in the situation played, a. part in I the-mar
ket. ?■/..;? y : ry- .-v.? .;.',. » *
The report that arrangements had been
practically concluded for a '-. $270,000,000
Russian loan <to be placed :in Berlin I and
Paris : sufficiently explains the pressure
from ;. those X points r. or. • gold and points
conclusively to a considerable ■ withdrawal
of gold from New. York. With the interior
demand currency not yet satisfied any
considerable '■' withdrawal /of - gold in addi-;
tion 7, will necessarily .-. result in * higher,
.money rates here. The recognition 7of this
fact?doubtless^had its influence in check-.;
ing the speculative buying. The ? reaction
was not ;beyond* control at any time, Rock
Island: and T. Ontario - & -Western.: reflect
ing their employment as brakes to re
strain the decline. The rally was not fully
maintained ■'- and • the • closing 7 was heavy,
but the urgent 1 liquidation was not re
newed. *■ ?::';■■ ■'."/- "7: --■■■ ; --'- • :- ■■■-
