Prime mercantile paper, 56 per cent. Sterling exchange was easy, with actual busi ness in bankers bills at $4.83 for demand and. I4.80HS4.80 for sixty days; posted rates, J4.81 4.S1V and $4.S3; commercial'MUs, $4.7$i Q 4.80. Silver certificates were 64Va'S,C"-ac; bar silver, ii'ic; Mexican dollars, SOc. Stiver bars at London were 23 15-lSd an ounce. A striking evidence of the constraint on spec ulation was given by the action of the market yesterday on the announcement of the declaration cf an extra dlv.uend cf 1 per cent, on Pennsyl vania Railroad stock. Previous to the announce ment the stock had been lifted a point and then reacted. When the news was bulletined there was a spasmodic rise in the stock to ICtiVa. but only one aale was made at thw. price, after which it fell back. Early In October Pennsyl vania sold below ' 12$. It has been actively traded in by energetic bull interests since that 'time, and a great variety of assertions have been made as to the forthcoming benefits to th stock. It was alleged, for instance, that the stock would certainly be placed on a C per cent, basis. Another story had it that a distribution would be made of a large portion cf the great surplus in the Pennsylvania, treasury. Ün. the other ha&d, the belief has prevailed generally that these assertions were exclusively for Stock jobbing purpos. and that the company woulj persist in the regular dividend rate of 2i per cent, semi-annually, which has prevailed ever since UM. Reviewing these past conditions, it 1 fair to assume that the day's action was a disappointment to some of the active bulls ;n the wtock. while it was certainly an agreeable surprise to the conservative element in the strett. Uut when it is considered that the net earn ings of the Pennsylvania flaliroad and of the lines directly operated by It have increased dur ing ntne mcnth cf the year mure than Jtj.üOu.OGO over the corresponding period of last year yes terday's rate cf distribution, seems moderate. TUe extra dividend will Involve the disburse ment cf a little over $1.5u.(Ko. There was a considerable show of strength in Sugar. The advance was attended by rumors that a break In the prices of refined -ugar: is imminent. Dullness in the market at large was too imall to have an important effect on prices, though the market closed with the level somewhat above Wednesday nUht. after having txen at one time a shade lower. A single lot of Lake Shore sold Just before the cloj-e at 220. having sold Wednesday at 210. The closing bids were quoted at 210li- Nothing ecu Id be learned to account for this small but urgent demand. The depression cf speculation !s still attributed to the Influence of what are called the "controlling Interests' in the market. The rltj in the money rate to 5 per cer.t. may have had some bearing on the extreme dullness of the speculation, fctock market demands on the money market during the wwk have been extremely moderate, and further receipts yesterday of Imported gold brought the total up to nearly IJ.&co.ooO on that account. Not a dollar has been transferred to the Interior through the subtreasury since last Friday. Tie bond market hared In the dullness of storks, and prices moved Irregularly. Total sales at par value were $l.24''J,WQ. United States bonds were uncharged on the last call. Following are the day's share sales and the closirx bid prices: Closing Stocks.

November Opens with Considerable Activity In Trade Prices Firm. The cooler temperature yesterday imparted more life to trade, both on the wholesale streets and on Commission row, and with this pricej carry a steady, firm tone on nearly ail lines of goods. With the dry-goods houses It was quite a busy day, and the druggists and boot and shoe merchants found plenty to do. October, for the wholesale grocers, was a big month, and November bids fair to be lively. In fact, the common expression with wholesale merchants and on Commission row is that after the elec tion, should there- be no change In the admin lutratlon, business will be the best of any No vember .in years, as stocks carried by retail merchants are well reduced, bills are well paid up, and the retailers will feel like stocking up. Then the good price that corn is bringing, as also is true of cattle and hogs, tends to greater trade activity. In prices yesterday there was not a change calling for special comment. Receipts of grain yesterday fell some short cf preceding days, but it is attributed to a shortage of cars. All cereals rule steady, and are read ily taken at the following range of prices on the track, as reported by the secretary of the Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red, 74c; No. 2 red, on milling freight, 74c; No. 3 red, 6971c; wagon wheat. 74c.

Corn and Oats Strong, but Unchanged .Active Provision Market, witlt the Prices Advancing. CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Wheat was erratic to-day, but finally turned heavy on weak cables and liquidation, as well as outside apathy. Decem ber closing c lower. Cora and oatr. closed un changed, and hog products 10c to 12il?13c higher. December wheat at the opening sold simulta neously from 74c to 73c, compared with yes terday's close at 74074c. The depression was due to a decline at Liverpool In the face of the strong advance here yesterday. While there was plenty of lorlg stuff for "sale, the bears were cautious of getting on the short side. A re covery followed on Argentine advicep, one re porting a 30 per cent, damage and the other esti mating a crop of only 48,000.000 bu from that portion of the Southern hemisphere. On re buylng by early sellers and some of the bulls December rallied sharply to 74c. The falling off In primary receipts and the prospects cf a decrease in the visible came as a support near the top of the bulge. Later there was considera ble liquidation, largely of November, on the lack of outside support, and December declined heav ily to 73073c, closing c under yesterday at 73(g'74c. Deliveries on November contracts were I. 000,000 bu. forming a minor influence In the opening depression. New York reported 25 loads taken for export Seaboard clearances, In wheat and flour, were equal to 242,0' ) bu. Primary re ceipts were 622.000 bu, compared with 83S.0C0 bu last year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 377 cars, against 511 last week and 608 a year ago. Local receipts were 163 cars, six of contract grade. Corn was. firm without any appearances of ac tivity. Supporting factors were light country acceptances, wet weather, steady cables, mod erate receipts and a fair shipping demand. Ele vator people were good buyers of November. De cember sold between 34c and 33c, closing un changed at 33c Receipts were 213 cars. Oats were quiet and trade largely of a local character, but the price held firm. The only Incident was the buying of November by a Bal timore phlpplr.g concern. Shipments were 703.OO0 bu, against 142,(V0 bu received. December sold between 2c and 22c and closed unchanged at 22c. Provisions were moderately active and exhib ited a decidedly strong undertone. The market opened 2c to 5c higher on hog receipts lighter than expected and an advance In prices at the yards. A further advance followed on a strong cash demand. Thre was a good demand for everything on the list, but particularly for lard. January iork sold between $11.22 and $11.32'4'5i II. 25 and closed 1215c higher at $11.3:li.35: January lard between $6.67 and $6.75. doping 10c up at $6.73, and January ribs between $3.97 and $6.02.

What Shall Be Done with Crokerf To the Editor of the Indianapolis' Journal: The desperation of the Croker-Bryan combination, as well as the criminal spirit that controls it, could by no means be made plainer than Mr. Croker makes it in his advice to his followers published this morning. It Is, of course, meant for the home boys.- Ills assertion that "this cheating won't be attempted so much in the cities as In the country towns" is a decoy phrase. He Is looking to the fulfil ment of his contract with Mr. Bryan to carry New York anyhow. It is a good omen for McKinley and Roosevelt, for it shows that their enemies have no hope of success even by fraud, but are now pre paring for the most desperate violence. Their flimsiest shadow of a king ever thrown against any people's sky Is a ridiculous failure. Even In the old world the monarehs hold on chiefly by suffer ance, and he who here in our land is to day frightened by the cry of Imperialism either knows nothing: of the spirit of the American citizen or distrusts his own man hood. So with their dishonest blather about trusts it now misleads no one. Grant their widest definition of trusts to be correct and It remains that there are good trusts and bad trusts. Just as there ave good men and bad men, and that the good trusts need to be let alone in the main, and the bad ones restrained, exactly as is the case with men; and as for apply ing restraint to either a bad trust or a bad man, would any sane human being rely upon Croker and Bryan rather than Mc Kinley? It is precisely so with every other sub ject which their speakers have talked about at length during this campaign; they have yawped about them merely to distract attention from the real danger point, the debasement, that is, of our cur rency and the disturbance of all our busi ness and Industrial relations which must follow the substitution of silver for gold as our standard of values. They do not proclaim their purpose to effect such sub stitution. They "nave avoided the subject, hidden it from sight, submerged it in seas of words, evaded It, ran from it; but Mr. Croker, the head of the combination, knows that the substitution will practically result if Mr. Bryan, the tail piece, is elected President next Tuesday. And Mr. Croker wants It to result, for he knows that It will bring about a season of distrust and con fusion and disaster; and seasons of dis trust and confusion and disaster are tho looter's opportunity. Mr. Croker Is a most skillful looter. That Is the question which is to be de cided at the polls next Tuesday; shall Mr. Croker have his coveted opportunity to loot at will for a season, or shall he not? The Croker-Bryan combination unites with Mr. Croker's advice to his Tammany toughs to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the issues of the campaign have, as they see them, narrowed down to simply that, and nothing more. Mr. Croker Is all they have left. What shall we do with him? O. W. SEARS. Indianapolis, Oct. 21. VITAL STATISTICSNOV. 1. Dlrths. Ada and E. K. Shugert, 2110 East Twelfth street, uoy.
