PREFERRED SELLS DOWN
TO 52, A NEW RECORD.
Railroad Issues Are Less Affect
ed Than Formerly and Manage
to .Close Somewhat niirhur.
New York. Nov. 6. The stock market
was submerged again to-day under a del
uge or United States Steel stocks. The
general list, however, responded much less
readily to the depressing Influence of the
Fteel liquidation than was the case yester
day. Whenever the severe pressure on
the steel stocks was suspended, as hap
pned at Intervals, the railroad stocks ral
lied easily, so that their level of prices
was above last night for about as much
of the lime as It was below. The market
closed In one of the Intervals when there
was no pressure on steel, so that prices
elsewhere were rising and were well above
last night. Union Pacific and Pennsylva
nia show a gain of a point on the day and
some of the New Tork corporation stocks
somewhat more.
SELLING IS VIOLENT.
The early liquidation In the steel shares
was very violent, as Is shown by the fact
that the sales of the preferred for the
first hour alone were well above 100.000
shares. It Is riot to be supposed that this
enormous volume of dealings "was wholly
liquidation. The room professionals trad
ed in and out of the stocks on a very large
tcale all day. It was said of one trader
who was very active in the stoek all day
that ho was neither long nor short for
iiium man ten minutes at a time, while
the aggregate of his Individual dealings
amounted to many thousands of shares.
The low price touched Tor the common
block was 1014. for the preferred 52 and
for the bonds C57i. The relatively greater
weakness of the preferred stock than the
bonds was noticeable In view of the sup
posed, conversion operation by the syndi
cate, which would involve the purchase of
preferred stojk for conversion Into bonds,
Jjn'ch would In consequence be for sale.

Sentiment in Corn Pit Is Bullish
December Oats Strong
Provisions Dull.
Chicago, Nov. 6. After ruling weak the
greater part of- the day. wheat turned
firm on a better export demand, and
closing prices showed a fair advance, Dec.
being up 4c. Dec. corn was 4c high
er, oats ware up Wc but provisions
were weak, thc Jan. products closing from
57Hc to 20c lower.
WHEAT.
Firm cables caused a better tone In
wheat at the start, and Dec. opened a
shade to Uvic higher at 78o to 78c.
Confirmation of a report that a million
bu. of No. 1 Northern had been chartered
at Duluth to come here brought out quite
general liquidation early In the session
and the market turned weak, Dec. sell
ing off to 77c within the Ilrst hour of
trading. On the decline there was a good
demand from shorts and commission
houses, and with lessened 'offerings prices
again started upward. The strength In
corn was a Dull factor during the latter
fun ui iiiu uy, as were nigner prices in
outside markets, at a fair advance at St.
Louis. Reports of over 80 boatloads taken
for export caused a nhnm rioman.l trnm
shorts during the last few minutes' trad
ing, and closing prices w-ere at the top
ItSJSlo,",' l5 aay- Dec- oe'ne up 4o at
i8?4i8?4c. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 4,800 bu. Primary receipts
were 1.342,000 bu., against 3.595.2CO bu. a
year ago. Exports of wheat and flour for
the week were equal to 4.310.000 bu., com
pared with 5,715.000 bu. last year. Minne
apolis and Duluth reported receipts of S65
cars, which, with local receipts of 107
cars none of contract grade made total
receipts for the three points of 973 cars,
against 92-1 cars last week and 1.0SS cars a
year ago.
CORN.
The sentiment In the corn pit was bull
ish and the market ruled strong. There
were reports from Nebraska and other
sections of the corn belt, showing a good
dpal of soft grain, and the theory on
which the local crowd was working was
that In another week or ten days tho
pressure from the old com would be over
and this poor corn would then begin to
come on the market. Commission-houses
were active buyers, but offerings were
on.y moderate. After selling between MUc
Hyrfmc. Local receipts were 277 cars,
with 23 of contract grade.
OAT3.
Oats were strong, particularly the Dec
option, which was Influenced largely by
a strong cash situation, and tho strength
of the near-by delivery helped the more
distant ones. The bullish feeling In corn
Influenced a good deal of buying by the
local crowd. The close was at the top,
with Dec Jio higher at SSftc, after rang
ing between 3oc and 3594c. Local re
ceipts were 158 cars.

SUMMARY OP THE ST, LOUIS MARKETS,
Another manipulative advance in the Dec. option was not the only strong spot In
yesterday s grain market. May also had considerable support and the feeling was
more generally bullish than li had been for several das. Weather conditions and
foreign news were the principal legitimate factors in the advance. Rains had fallen
In many sections of thf West. Tho movement to market was only moderate anil
stocks In store were on tho decline. Ll,;ht Argentine shipments and higher Kuropenn
markets, coupled with comparatively large exports, caused considerable covering by
shorts in the List hour. This market was strengthened by the action of Chiciiso.
whero the shorts were good buyers throughout the session. It was said that some of
the StjLouis crowd were sellers there, but this had little effect on the local situa
tion. The market was somewhat draggy In the opening hours, but tonard the cIofo
all offerings wero eagerly snapped up nnd the bulls made a runaway race of It at
the close.
Corn, was dull but slightly higher on the strength of wt weather and bad husking
reports from many sections. As nn offset to this bullish Information there were pri
vate estimates that the roming Government report would indicate a yield of more
than 2,000.000,000 bu. Cables were higher and clearances were fairly large.
May wheat opened !4c up and closed lHSlUc up.
May corn opened ',4c up and closed c up.
May oats closed VtlfVc up.
Receipts of produce were In fair volume and prices of fruits and vegetables were
steady to easy.
Local securities were dull and lower. Traction Issues declined under slight selling
pressure.
Yosterdny'3 bank clearings wera $3,581,633, balances JGC8.417. Discount rates wero

Both wheat and corn were on the up
turn In .yesterday's market. Tharo was
manipulation -In Dec. and considerable
buying by shorts In May on a better ar
ray of bullish news than had been re
ceived for some time. Foreign markets
showed considerable strength and Argen
tine shipments were much smaller than
had been expected. Weather conditions
throughout tho belt were unfavorable and
the movement to market was not suffi
cient to offset the general decrease of
stocks in store at tho principal receiving
points. The strength of other domestic
markets aided bullish speculation here.

erally relieved drought conditions east of

Wool.
Boston. Nov. f. The Commercial Bull'tln
will say to-morrow:
There has been a little better Inquiry for
wool, but buyers are still conservative. The
week's business Includes fair sized lines of
Territory, fleeces and scoured, with a big vol
ume of sample lots placed. In prices there Is
no change, and the tone of the market Is
strong. A careful estimate' of the stock of
domestic wool -in Boston for sale places It
about 60.000,000 lbs., which Is unusually light
ior inin scusuu vi me yar. uiner uastem mar
kets are cleaned up and manufacturers' sup
plies are very small. No supplies can !
bought anywhere to compete with the present
offerings an this market
unrope is snort 01 wool, or one-quarter blood
grade, and below. In twelve months such
grades haie advanced 62 per rent In Europe.
The shipments of wool from Boston to date,
from Dec. 31. 1902. are 193.307.613 lbs, against
2.3.199.150 lbs., at the same date last year. The
receipts to date ore 254.699,857 lbs . against
235,403,341 lbs. for the same period last year.
