THE MARKETS,
In Wall Street.
New Tork, Nov. 4.—A lower range of
prices was established in the stock market
today. I^ondon was again a heavy seller of
(Rocks owing to the political complications
abroad, and the foreigners were credited
With disposing of 30,000 shares of Ixmisvllle
and Nashville. Commission houses were ac
tive and considerable long stock was sola
(or the account of holders whose margins
have been weakened by the steady shrink
age In values. Boston sold Atchison aiui
Burlington and Quinoy. The sales awc*'£
tributed to the break in coppers there.
Local bear operators wore somewhat ag
gressive, supposedly acting
having thrown over at least 20,000 shares
of stocks. The strength of the sterling ex
change market accelerated the downward
movement and there was the usual talk
about gold exports. The disturbances abroad
lent additional Interest to the subject, al
though up to the close of business no ar
rangement had vbeen made for shipments.
The Impression is that there would be no
outward movement, at least until Saturday,
and even then shipments will be avoided, as
a prominent house is expected in the market
with 600,000 pound cables later in the week.
The pressure to sell was most pronounced tn
the ease of the internationals, southwest
ern s and grangers. Louisville and Nashville
fell 2% to 53Vi, Kansas and Texas preferred
2 to 30*4, Atchison 2% to 15%. Atchison pre
ferred 2% to 24%, Wabash preferred 1 to 19,
Denver and Bid Grande Purred 1% to
47%. Missouri Pacific 1% to 28%, Mobile and
Ohio 1% to 18%, Big Four 1% to *40%, Lake
Shore 2% to 147, Burlington and Quincy lVi

weakness of the Atchison securities was as
cribed to poor earnings and the failure or
the insiders to agree on the personnel of
the new directory and officers. The grang
ers held well for a time. Near the close some
of the minor bears covered their shorts ami
a rally of % to lVf» ensued, but in the final
transactions Lake Shbte and St. Paul, Kan

Chicago 'Change.
Chicago, Nov. A.—For nine-tenths of to
day's session wheat was quotably the same
price. An idea of the extent of trade may
be formed from that fact. There was prac
tically no business, the scalpers and room
traders buying and selling moderate quanti
ties, without any well defined opinion as to
the direction prices ought to take. Thq
news summed up might be considered as
favorable to the boars, but that element
made no attempt to depress prices. De
cember wheat opened from 59Vi to 5SH@58%o,
advanced tA 58%(g58%c, closing at un
changed from Saturday. Cash wheat was
steady.
Com—The indifference of trade was quite
as marked today as it has been
on any day recently. The news
of the day developed nothing
calculated to arouse operators from
their lethargy. The situation seemed to be
that the supplies of corn are known, but
the consumption and absorption uncertain.
The market is, therefore, in a knotty condi
tion, with tne advantage in favor of the
bears. May com opened at 29Vfcc, sold be
tween 29V4 and 2Wfr29Hc, closing at 29V4c, He
higher than Saturday. Cash corn was
steady.
Oats—Only slight alterations in prices
wore observe^ in oats and they were duo to
the moderate action of the larger markets.
The trade in oats, liko that in corn, is im
pressed by the immensity of the late crop.
May oats closed unchanged from Saturday.
Cash oats wrere quiet, but lower.
Provisions—A big run of hogs weakened
the stock yards market and in turn affocted
products. The depression continued for a
short period after the opening this morn
ing, after which there was a little outside
buying, which reverped the tone and from
•then on a comparatively steadier feeling pre
vailed. January pork and January ribs
closed unchanged from Saturday, January
lara was a shade lower.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Sun's Cotton Review.
• New York, Nov. 4.—The Sun’s cotton re
view says; Cotton rose 13 to 14 points, then
reacted and closed barely steady at a rise
for the day of 4 to 6 points, with sales of
196,100 bales. Liverpool advanced 1-1 Od on
the spot with sales of 13,000 bales, while fu
tures rose and then reacted and closed 2
joints higher than the last quotations of
Saturday. Manchester was quiet and steady.
The feeling- on the continental financial
bourses waa reported weak. Heavy frost
at Jasper. Ala., and light frost at Mont
gomery, A!a.v Galveston receipts were 8$87
bales, against IT.461 bales last week and
25,338 bales /or the same day lust year. Spot
cotton here was quiet at l-16c advance, with
sales of 321 hales for spinning and 1100 bales
delivered on contract. The southern spot
markets were unchanged. Newf Orleans sold
8500 bales and Memphis 750 hales.
The ports received today 38,292 bales,
against 60,31*7 bales this day last week and
85,893 bales this day last year.
Perft&ps nobody was more surprised than
the average bull at the smallness of the re
ceipts at the ports and Interior towns today,
no matter ln>w strong ids faith might be in
the small crop estimates. Certainly the
figures were enough to surprise even the
best of the more conservative bears, some of
whom were ready to admit that the con
tin ued smallness of the crop movement seems
to point unerringly to a very light yield.
The estimates for New Orleans and Houston
tomorrow were so small as to attract gen
eral attention. Early in the day prices took
a sharp upwrard turn, owing to the light re
ceipts, inactivity and buoyancy in Liverpool
and heavy buying orders from Europe, as
well as considerable covering of shorts by
local operators. Later on, however, there
wras considerable liquidation, as usual, just
before a holiday, and a portion of the early
improvement wra« lost. New York and New
Orleans and Chicago sold. Tho estimated
arrivals at the ports for the week are very
small, however, not over 250,000 being ex
pected. Bears say that the cotton is being
held back, but bulls say that prices are very
remunerative and that the crop ts marketed
by the groat bulk of the fanning communi
ty.
