SUMMARYOFST.LOUISMARKETS
heat lost most of the previous day's gains in yesterday's market. This was a
natural reaction from tho cicitement caused by Tuesday's bullish foreign news. There
was some early strength on stories or drought in the winter belt, but this was oni',
temporary, and toward the close of tho sttslon trading sentiment was very bearish.
Among tha depressing influences were largo. receipts, a light cash demand and lack of
foreign inquiry. Professional traders gave the market Uttle support. They encour
aged tho early advance for the purely, s-cltish purpose of taking profits at the top. The
movement to other rrlmary points nm not as great as on the corresponding day last
year. Tnls, with the occasional reports of drought, caused frequent slight gains, but
the trading was mainly by scalpers and there was no bull leader in the Held. Without
tho influence of renewed peace negotiations tho market might have shown a good ad
vance on the legitimate new3. Tlure are operators who think that the drought con
ditions in the West wlU yet be effective In working an advance.
Corn showed little strength. Weather and crop reports were generally favorabl
and thcro wa3 little buying Interest. Closing prices were slightly lower than on
Tuesday.
Dec. wheat opened Uc off and doed 167ic off.
Dec corn opened 1-lSc up and closed Uc off.
Dec. cats closed nominally Uc up.
Receipts of produco wero moderate and prices of fruits and -vegetables were gen
erally steady.

IN THE FINANCIAL MARKET.
AMALGAMATED COPPER IS
FEATTJEE OP TRADING.
Conspicuous Favor Sr:wn in the
Speculation to Ind jstriala and
Specialists and Low-Grade
Issues.
New yorlc, Xov. a Dispatches from
London this morning reported that the
war panic of yestero,,y had entirely sub
sided and that there haj iecn no'sround
for It at any Um There was some recur
rence of tinea Inec- reported in foreign
markets later In the day, but it had littles
reflection here.
The local markctjBcdaed to havo recov-j
ered 1U c-jtaanimlty.'and alter feeding tho
early demand freely with realizing sale-
ino advance in prices vras taKen up again,
The day's market proved decidedly patchy,
however, and the successive advances
which were made at different points in tho
market did not Induce much sympathetic
response. Tho list did not move decidedly
in company at any time during the day.
There was conspicuous favor shown in tho
speculation to the industrials and special
ties, including: a number of low-grade is
sues. Amalgamated Copper was the feature of
the trading, and its rise to a new high
level for e movement was accompanied
by many rumors of a final settlement of
the long-drawn-out contest of the Mon
tana copper interests. Sanguine trade es
timates also helped the stock.
' SUGAR.
Sugar and United States Steel preferred
continued to keep It company, the latter
In a moderate wav. Denials of the current
rumors of an option secured on the Heinze
properties did not check the movement lm
Amalgamated Copper.
Er.d was the feature of the railroad list,
and tho only news to explain tho advance,
was a report that a sale of a block of
several millions of Its convertible bonds
bad been effected. There was no official
sanction for this report, but rumors were
circulated of the extensive betterments
upon which the proceeds of the bond sale
would be Immediately laid out- The earn
ings were also said to bo improving fast.
The reported Erie projects wcro a help to
United States Steel preferred, as were the
reports of large buying of steel products,
including rails, by the Burlington.
Reading was the only stock to show
close sympathy with the movement of
Erie.
Tho Western stocks were Inclined to
hang back except Rock Island and Union
Pacific The belated rlBe In those awak
ened little rcsponso amongst the other
grangers and Pacifies. A new rumor was
afloat rocardlna the 'local traction mpre-w
making terms at which control of Metro
politan Securities had been acquired.
Strength of Smelting and Lead caused
revived rumors of a lead merger. The
leather stocks enjoyed a period of
strength. There were other features of
minor importance and of only Individual
significance. There was a marked falling
ou. in ine activity or mo marKet ana tne
buying was inclined to diminish in each
separate stock as It made its Isolated ad
vance.
But there was little Increase of selling
pressure on tho advances and sentiment
was undisturbed. The gains in net earn
ings for September for the Pennsylvania
and Rock Island systems were viewed
with satisfaction, although duo in both
cases to retrenchment of operating ex
penses. Money continued easy, and tho
gold engagement for Cuba was regarded
without uneasiness.
The bharp reaction In sterling exchange
was attributed to proflt-taking by specu
lative .dealers rather than to any chango
in the conditions in that market. The un-
cvenness of tho market continued up to
the closing, which was irregular.

Western Keports and Advices of
Insects Come to Aid of
the Balls.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Chicago, Nov. 2. New war complications
having been eliminated aa a possibility
for the present, there was a feeling at the
opening that such rumors would leao the
market without its chief support. This
nervousness among holders was added to
by lower Liverpool cables, and the market
started out weak.
But there were two important bull fac
tors to be considered. The first was the
unmistakable falling off in the Western
movement. Tho second was tho adverse
news coming from nearly all winter wheat
Stutes regarding drought and Hessian fly.
Under the first head Uie Northwest mar
kets showed but CSS cars, against 792 last
year; primary markets showed SSO.000 bu.,
compared with a trifle less than 1.000,000
bu. same day last year. Minneapolis
houses wired that agents along the lines
were reporting a further drop in the spring
wheat shipments to that market. The
Northwest did some buying here. There
was early buying on a liberal scale for
December by several leading concerns, and
Cudahy brokers bought on the weak spots.
Vrtltnttne made a show of selling some
May wheat on the advance, nhlch was fol
lowed by fair Bales by Spencer, Knight
Donnelly, Ware-Leland and others. There
was, however, nothing like aggressive bear
operations at any time and the market
closed with the trade a little dull and
prices at reaction to exactly the level of
the close on Tuesday.
Tho weakness at St. Louis was an Influ
ence in the reaction. The Broomhall ca
ble mentioned the probability of a reduc
tion of the Spanish duty on wheat the
first of the year, Australian advices gas
tho approaching harvest much short of
tho yields of 1903, Detroit sent messages
saying Hessian fly in Michigan wheat
flelds.
INSECTS IN OHIO.
Ohio grain men on the floor reported
flelds In that Statu alive with the Insect,
and in sections of Missouri it is claimed
that resecding is going on where the early
fields have been seriously injured. The lo
cal cash market was steady to Arm. with
milling hales a little better at T5.O0O bu. or
all grades. Northwest reported demand
slow. Kansas City claimed that No. 4
hard wheat was selling to mills at 2a over
tho dav before. The enthusiastic bulls in
the trade are looking ahead and predict
ing that the contrast between movement
from this crop and tho enormous run of
uhtat to Western market during Novem
ber, 130B, wiU bo even more of a bull fac
tor from day to day. Tho point was made
also that interior elevators in Northwest
held but S,o00,000 at this date in previous
years.
CORN FEATURES.
Perhaps the most striking fcaiuxo in tho
corn trade was tho reaction 'in tho Dec-
price of c from best point and tho net
loss for tie day of 34c at has been the
cJilef stook In trade for corn bulls that the
Dec price was likely to show considerable
Enap influenced by cash premiums, light
stocks and small arrivals of old corn. Tho
trade had the help of 4o to lc advance in
No. 3 cash corn on tho tables. Thcro was
aTepetltlon of the claim of yesterday from
Nebraska points that corn husking Is not
up to expectations. Kansas City houses
w era predicting that the movement of new
com 1. likely to be quite limited all
through this month.
The local rccoipts were limited to CI
car. and estimated is but 5 cars. There
was evon somt buying of December com
by Armour brokers early and one commis
sion houso bought fully 300,000 bu. May
corn about the same time. With all this
Dec mado but Ho advance, aad lost
it all before the close. The May covered
tho narrow range from 45HC to 4574c and
closed practically the same as yesterday.
Prlngle. Freedman and other professionals
were free fellers of May com at times.
CHANGES IN OATS.
Tradlns in oats most of tho day was
characterized by considerable changing,
buying of May and selling of July at
about the same prlco, and buying of May
and selling of Dec at about Pic difference.
Otherwise conditions wore much tho samo
as in corn, small receipts of 81 cars, lirm
and somewhat higher cash prices and yet
the market alter a 111110 upturn 01 o
or more reacted and closed at cxactiy
Tussday'o prices.
PROVISIONS ADVANCE.
Provision, made a good advance on buy
ing of ribs and pork by Cudahy I'acklr:;
Company. The liberal decreases In local
stocks and private estimates placing tho
decrease In world's lard stocks at S.'.M
tierces were aoded buying incentives and
pr,ces advanced ECT20C Local hog receipts
t,to), estimate 21,wO, prices at tno yards
Dc higher.

Selling by the Pit Traders Causes
a Much Easier Tone in
Corn Movement.
BT ASSOCIATED PRI539.
Chicago, Nov. 2. Conflicting statements
us to the condition of the growing wheat
crop had a counterbalance effect on prices
to-day, a sharp rally being followed by an
almost equally precipitate; decline. At the
close wheat quotations wero practically
Identical with yesterday's final figures.
Com Is off Uc. Oats aro unchanged and
provisions are Cc to 20c higher.
Reassuring advices regarding Russo-An-glo
affairs and lower prices in foreign
grain markets wero tho main cause of con
siderable selling of wheat here when trad
ing began. Opening quotations on both
the Dec. and May deliveries showed losses,
tho former being off 'Jo to ic at JL114 to
JL11H. May was down ;j3',c to Oiff'ic at
JL111; to 1L11J.. Bearish sentiment, how
ever, survived only a brief period.
News from the Southwest was extreme
ly bullish, numerous reports of damage by
Hessian flies and drought being received
from various sections of the wlnter-w heat
belt. Somo of the messages from Kansas
wero radical, declaring that the condition
of growing crop is the worst ever experi
enced in that region. In addition to the
poor showing claimed for tho new crop,
tho movement of wheat from the farms
continued to diminish lnfvolume. Arrivals
in the Northwest to-dav were considerably
less than last car, while the total primary
receipts wcro anout io per cent smancr
than those of tho corresponding day a
year ago.
Prom the start shorts were active buy
ers. Tho decline with which trading com
menced wa& soon overcome and tho ad
vance that followed did not halt until the
prlco of Dec. had reached S1.13tj. over a
cent above where It stopped the previous
afternoon. May was somewhat less elas
tic, although the prlco advanced to T1.12S-
Sentiment In the pit then suddenly shift
ed to the bear side. During the latter
part of tho session trading showed less
animation and the market loit almost all
of tho eariy advance. Tho cauEe of tho
change in sentiment was a report of a
local crop statistician stating that the
condition of winter wheat in Ohio. In
diana. Illinois. Missouri and Kansas is
not so bad as a year ago.
Tho market closed barely steady at
JL121S. Pinal figures on May were at
ILU.v3fil.i2. Clearance"! of wheat and
flour were equal to 33.000 bu. Primary
rcce'pts were 8S1.C0O bu., compared with
1 2S3.O0O bu. a year ago. Minneapolis, uu
luth and Chicaco reported rccelotH of C-ll
cars, against 7S5 cars last week and 956
cars a year ago.
COP.N.
An easier tone wis manifested in the
com market as a result of moderate sell
ing by pit tra'derJ. Lower cables and a
continuation of excellent weather condi
tions wer largely responsible for the -of
ferings, nwnnr was omuv local. jh
j illustration of the quietness of outside dc-
mand was furnished by to-day's ship
ments, which were only one-fifth of those
the corresponding day last year. Dee.
opened a shade to 'itWic lower at 4SSc to
"ST-ic, sold up to 48;c and closed at 48,p
4Sc Local lecclpts were 61 cars, none
of which wero of contract grade.
OATS.
A feature of trading in tho oats market
was large purchases of July by a promi
nent packlng-housf Interest. Tho market
held steady throughout tho entiro session.
Shorts were good buyers. Dec opened Ho
to Uc lower at 2Si'j25s;c, sold up to 2S?
29c, and closed at 2Sc Local receipts
wero 81 cars.

Despite reports of drought in the winter

in yesterday's market. Tho weather re
ports hdd some early effect on values, but
prospects of a peaceful settlement of Uie

so bearish a factor that few traders
cared to add to their lines. After fairly
good buying in the first hour, the active
