Effect on Stock Market.
VERY LANGUID MOVEMENT

the Closing Was Steady, it Was
Very Dull, With Advancing

(By Associated Press.) ; ,
NEW YORK. Oct. 31.?To-day a bank
?tattiment r.rovecl to bo tho usual enigma
to stuck maiket observers. Tho state?
ment reports a. decrease In cash of W.rov
kOO. Tit-u ait- a number of estimates
compiled nveiy Friday of tho weeks .cur?
rency from tho bank officials themselves.
Yest'ordav none of these estimates 'regard
ed as reliable, showed a cash puitfo tor
the week of less than thirteen million dol?
lars and some of them ran to over ,15,009.
000. Last Saturday the bank statement in
Its item of cash reserves failed to snow
tho estimated decrease by $4,000,000. in?
ner the workings of the averago system
last week's discrepancy would 'tend to bo
corrected in this week's statement. This
conclusion is unavoidable that the actual
showing ol the cash reserve Item In the
bank statement. II It correctly represents
tlio aerial condition of the banks, must
be btuei upon money movements not dis?
closed to the public In the information
upon which the Friday estimates are
hnsed. To-day's statement failed to,have
convincing etfect In stock market cir?
cles, and o very languid upward movement
of prices resulted. This was partly due to
tho fact that a skeptical feeling was felt
yesterday as to whether the formidable
decrease ? In cash would be In fact, re
fle-.-.ed In to day's bank statement. There
Is n. belief that the discrepancies in the
bank statement may be explained by
cash rpciations between the bank and
trust companies, which do not appear
in the reports of currency movements.
The Increase in loans, which reached ?4.
4O3;60O; was not unexpected and is at?
tributed to preparations for November 1st
eettlements and to borrowings by West?
ern Institutions In connection with their
large cash withdrawals.
The closing vraa steady, but very dull,
end with the advancing tendency check?
ed.

r? and old 4's 1-2 per cent, over the
closing call of last week.

DANVILLE TOBACCO MARKET.
Danville, Va., Oct. 31. 1003.
Dlbrcll Brothers give thn following review
of the week:
During the early part of the week our sales
were ? fairly large and composed of old belt
stock from the nearby district, but during the
latter part of the week sales wero lighter, and
with a larger proportion of Eastern nnd Southern
tobaccos: jj Altogether the quality of the ou>r
ing* this weak has been poorer than.usual, lack?
ing both color and quality. The genera) charx
acter of the offerings this wook has been good
medium, with n scurclty of common und tine.
Prices have been Qrm with a slight upward
tendency. All grades show some slight advance,
and lu tome It is decidedly noticeable. Several
of our Independent domestic manufacturers have
entered the market this week, und their presence
is decidedly felt on such grades as suit them.
Very few exporters sre buying anything of con?
sequence.
Trade in old tobacco seems to tie picking up
and inquiries and sales are more frequent than
for some months past. Tha holders of old to?
bacco* seem to be In better spirits, especially
those holding stocks of old bright* snd wrappers.
They claim that the present crop affords com?
paratively s, small proportion of these grade,
nnd they feel encouraged In consequence. The
weather Is not such to admit ot large receipts,
and we. therefore, look for only moderate re?
ceipts for the coming week, unless there should
be a decided chsnge In the weather. Tho farm
era seem to appreciate the Importance of not
rushing their tobacco to market this year,
and have the, good sense not to crowd the buy?
ers.
