THE MARKETS, In Wall Street.

The foreigners at (this time were in our market as buyers, one arbitrage house placing the purchases tor this account at about 6000 shares, of which St. Paul figured for nearly two-thirds or tne amount. The upward tendency, however, was checked soon after the opening by an advance in the posted rates of sterling ex change of *&c, to $4.88(84.SO. On Monday they were $4.87(84.8$. This, of course, led to talk of resumption of gold exports, cor a time the rumors had no Influence, but later, when evidence was forthcoming that one or more of the coffee importing firms be came more active in the sterling exchange market, more attention was paid to this feature of the situation by the professional element. They sold the industrials, tli*» grangers, Louisville and Nashville and other leading stocks, and this started mod erate liquidations for the long account. Prices receded anywhere from % to 1% per cent. Sugar fell 1% to 107%. Tobacco 1# to 9L>%, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy 1V» to 86*4, St. Paul Vh to 76%.

Chicago 'Change. Chicago. Oct. 16.—Some lingering signs of yesterday's strength in wheat were still ap parent when the market opened today, but the bulls were without any fresh news or arguments with which to convince them selves or others that prices should go high er. Liverpool cables came with a decline of %d. thereby ignoring yesterday’s strength on this side. About the middle of the ses sion an absence of support to prices was noted and a general easing took place until the announcement by Bradstreot’s of an Increase in tlie world’s available supply of 7.8S6.000 bushels. Then came a break of %c, after which business became slack and “puts” checked any further decline. De cember wheat opened from 61 to 60%c, sold between 61% and 60V4c, closing at 60%@60%c. Cash wheat was irregular, but the nominal close was weaker and about %@1 c lower. Corn—Partly in sympathy with wheat and partly on light receipts corn was quite Jinn this morning and managed to hold its own until the slump succeeding Bradstreet’s an nouncement took place in wheat, when less strength was noted. But even at the close, when wheat was weak, there was an air of steadiness to corn. May e.om opened at 29Vfec, sold between 29% and 29%@’29%c, closing at 29**»e. unchanged from yesterday. Cash corn was steady to firm. * Oats—Whilst the firmness of wheat and corn was in evidence, oats held well, but with the disappearance of strength from the leading grains the minor one was unable to sustain itself. Cash oats were about %c higher, closing easy. May oats closed a shade under yesterday. Provision®—'The news from the yards was discouraging this morning and It cast a shadow over products, which hung there all through the session. A large run of hogs were announced. They wore poor in quality and prices were off from 5 to 10c per hundred pounds. Only a light trade was seen in pro visions. and after a lower opening prices varied but little. At the close January pork was 7Vic lower. January lard &',£c lower and January ribs 2Vic lower. The leading lutures ranged as follows: Articles Opening Highest Lowest Closing. W heat Oct. Dec. May.

The Guardian’s Article. Manchester, Oct. 16.—The Guardian, in its commercial article, says: The firmness in Manchester during the week has not been uniform, despite the hardening of the price of cotton, which, however, lias stimulated nervous buyers to place a few orders. The tone of the market has been inactive with a tendency on the part of the buyers and sellers to get further apart. Advances have secured for a few small lines of special goods and staples for India, from which country complaints of stagnation in selling have come, owing to the higheivprices re quired, dealers resolutely declining to pay the rates demanded fearing a collapse.
