THE MARKETS. In Wall Street. New York, Oct. 18.—Dullness reigned su preme at the stock exchange today. At the opening the market was barely steady, but subsequently prices advanced pet* cent. The activity was due to the weakening of sterling exchange. The decline in sterling exchange, of course, puts an end to the talk about gold exports, and the sellers of yesterday were the buyers of today. The net result of the day’s trading was a loss of Vs@Va rw cent in the usually active is sues. Tobacco, Distilling and Cattle Feed ing and Leather preferred gained %(§'$» per cent. Tennessee 'Coal, Iron and Railroad and Laclede Gas were exceptionally weak, and fell to 41 and 24!* respectively. The liquidation in I^aclede Gas was the result of rumors of the formation of an opposi tion company in St. L#iis. Chicago Gas ranged between 68Vi ana 69, cldsng at the former figure, a net loss of % per cent for the day. The closing was rather weak in tone, but without any increased* volume of . business. * *5 1 Ronds were irregular, but t^pe demand was firm; sales $1,7*1.000.

Oct. 18.—If wheat would hut move a cent or so either way from 6(XJiGlc it might bring about same action in tlie market, but so long as it clings to the posi tion it has held for two weeks the dealers will not attempt anything but the most in significant business. The feeling at the opening was a little firmer than at the close yesterday, but offerings became a little greater than the demand could absoi j, so the prices were uuable to hold. The initial strength was carried over from yesterday's current business. Cash wheat was easy and V&c per bushel lower. Corn—The dullness in corn today had the merit of being uninterrupted. Not a thing developed to disturb the quiet which has reigned through the session. Any changes in prices were due entirely to the action of wheat. At the opening quotations were slightly firmer than at the close yesterduy, but wheat having displayed a sinking ten dency corn disposed of what moderate strength it had. May corn opened at 20*/»@ 29%c\ sold between 29% and 29%c, closing at 29U.c, %c under yesterday. Cash corn wras steady. Oats—A decline of a fraction or slightly over from opening prices took place In oats. The loss was simply through sympathy. At no time during the session was business active, and only a few traders were in at tendance. The close was unchanged from yesterday for May oats. Cash oats were steady. Provisions—That hogs suffered no decline this morning was accepted by product trad ers as favorable news. This sufficed to sus tain the provision market for a while today, but near the end offerings increased slight ly and prices lost their firmness. At the close January pork and January ribs were unc hanged and January lard 2%c lower. The leading futures ranged as.follows: Articles Opening Highest Lowest Closing. Wheat Oct. Dec. May. Corn— Oct.
