Chicago * Change.
Chicago, Nov. 6.—Wheat wound up here
where it began today, but that was at a
loss of *c from Monday. The Initial de
cline was due to the rain here and in other
parts of the winter wheat belt. The north
ern weather bureau predicted showers for
tonight and tomorrow, upon the announce
ment of which there was a tumble of
more, the decline meeting with re-sistonee
at 58c for December. Liberal clearances of
wheat and flour at the seaboard and higher
closing Liverpool cables furnished the pre
text for a rally, after which prloes see
sawed back and forth within a narrow
range, closing firm at the highest price of
the session. December wheat opened firm
from 58* i to 58%c, declined to 58c, rallied
and closed at uSVgC, l+c under Monday. Cash
wheat was easy and fractionally lower.
Corn—-There was probably more firmness
than of weakness in today's corn market.
Tlie rain, it was believed, was retarding
shipments of corn* temporarily, that being
the bull card, but the very slight gain made
was scarcely worthy of reference. The fluc
tuations of wheat had some bearing on the
action also, the pronounced weakness of
that grain being instrumental in causing an
easy feeling in corn, whilst it lasted. May
corn opened at 2914C, sold between 29*% and
L,9>/8'r/2!»,4c. closing at 2W*29%c, a shade
higher than Monday. Cash corn was firm
to Uo higher.
Oats—A quiet, peaceful session was pass
ed in oats. A few unimportant orders were
received and executed, that ended the busi
ness of the day. A moderately firm tone
prevailed throughout, the strength of corn
sensibly affected the tone. May oats closed
higher than Monday. Gash oats were
steady.
Provisions improved in value through the
medium of strength communicated by the
hog market, which was 51110c higher, not
withstanding the unusually heavy run.
There was no apprehensible Improvement
in business, the session dragging most of
the time. The close was firm and 10c higher
for January pork, 5c higher for January
lard and 2Vfec higher for January ribs.
The leading lutures ranged as follows:

New York, Nov. 6.—Stocks opened firm
and Vi to % per cent higher. London was a
buyer at this tlrrie and Its purchases stimu
lated the upward movement. The strength
of the market was short-lived, however, and
before the expiration of the first hour of
business the market was on the down
grade and from the time referred to right to
the close liquidations were the order of the
day. with the selling most pronounced in
the cases of the Industrials, the grangers
end the Western Union. There was an ap
proach to demoralization»during the after
noon. Local 1 't-ars were not slow to take
advantage of the uneasiness prevailing, and
their sales added to the feverishness of the
market. Sterling exchange was a shade
lower for sixty days bills, the result of
higher discounts on London, but the supply
of bills is meager and It is by no means

Sun’s Cotton .Review. »
New York, Nov. 6.—The Sun's cotton re
view says: Cotton fell 16 to 18 points, then
rallied and closed steady at a net decline
of 13 to 15 points, with sales of 263,900 bales.
The Liverpool cables quote declines of 7
points in two days and then rallied and
closet! steady at a net decline of 5 points,
with spot sales in two days of 16,000 bales,
at a decline of l-16d. Manchester was dull
New Orleans declined 20 to 22 points in two
days, and then rallied slightly. Spot prices
were l-16c lower here, with sales of 420 bales
for spinning. St. Louis dropped 13 to 15
points and Norfolk, Memphis and Augusta
V«c. Exports from the ports were 40,000
bales.
Houston’s estimated receipts tomorrow
are 6000 bales, against 13,200 bales for the
tame day last year.
Port receipts yesterday were 33,549 bales,
against 42,030 bales for the same day last
week and 60,862 bales for the same day last
year. Today’s receipts were 35,035 bales,
against 37,600 bales for the same day last
week and 61,770 bales for the same day last
year.
Port receipts for the week are now esti
mated at 195,000 to 205,000 hales, whereas a
few days ago they were estimated at 235,
000 to 250,000. Last week they were 259,714
bales, and for this week last year 376,325
bales and for the same week in 1893 they
were 293,000.
Latham, Alexander & Co. estimate the
crop, based on 2632 reports from correspond
ents, at 6,435,000 to 6,680,000 bales. They esti
mate the decrease iri Texas at 45 per cent,
Louisiana 37, North Carolina 34, Alabama
and Arkansas 33, Mississippi and Tennes
see 28, Georgia 27. South Carolina 26 and
Florida 15. They add that picking is further
advanced than ever before and that in some
sections it Is about over; that the crop has
been marketed with unusual rapidity and
that few correspondents report any disposi
tion on the part of the planters to hold back
cotton.
Houston received 3650 bales, against 3631
bales for the same .day last week and 4046
bales for the same day last year; Houston
3137 bales, against 4906 bales last week and
13,646 bales for the same day last year.
New Orleans expects tomorrow 5000 to
6000 bales, against 10,583 bales for the same
day last week and 8236 bales for the same
day last year and 7743 bales for the same
day in 1893.
Today's features: The disturbed political
situation In Europe militated against the
interests of the bulls, inasmuch as It was
reflected in dullness and depression in Liv
erpool and Manchester, with which New
York and New Orleans quickly sympathized
notwithstanding the smallness of the re
ceipts, not only at the ports hut at the in
terior towns. A sharp decline in British
consols was one unfavorable feature, ac
companying disturbing reports In regard to
the Turkish question, and, to judge from the
talk of some of the bears, England has de
cided to dismember the Turkish empire to
morrow' or next day, if not sooner. Cer
tainly Liverpool was depressed, and its spot
sales dropped to small figures. A war cloud
is always considered a bear point or> the
cotton trade, because war interfered with
general business. War, according to the old
commercial saying, means "dear breadstuffs
and cheap oottoff." There was less disposi
tion to buy today on the part of outside
speculative element, and as the speculation
was thus limited for the most part to pro
fessional operators here, the majority of
whom incline to the hear side, it is not at
all surprising that prices should have been
marked dowrn. At the same time the re
ceipts are so small that many believe that
if the figures continue at their present ratio
of decrease as compared not only with 1894
but with 1893, spinners, domestic and for
eign, must sooner or later come In and buy
freely. The ports this week are now ex
pected to get only about half the quantity
received in the same week last year, and
about 100,000 bales less than for the same
w'eek in 1893, when the crop was 7,500,000
bales. Furthermore, the New Orleans semi
weekly estimate of the interior .receipts this
w'eek is only 75,000 bales, against 150,000 bales
In the same week last year, while the ship
ments are expected to reach only 39,000
bales, against 120,000 bales for the same time
last year; these figures, therefore, pointing
to very small receipts at the ports next
week. But today the small cron movement
was for the moment practically ignored.
Local and southern selling and an absence
of aggressive buying sent price® downward.
A southern operator sold 1500 October, 1896,
at 8.38, down to 8.30, and this transaction
helped to depress the market, though It Is
of course merely an expression of opinion
as to what will take place'next year. The
tone at the close was steady, after a very
fair business for the day.

The Guardian’s Article.
Manchester, Nov. 6.—The Guardian in Its
commercial article says: The semi-stagna
tion of the market yesterday, which was
trying to both producers and sellers is at
tributed partly to the troubles in the east,
though mostly to the sluggish foreign de
mand. There was no response to the high
er prices which sellers were compelled to
ask to avoid loss. The ample supply exist
ing, which was contracted for below the
present cost of cotton, aided the unsteadl-j
ness of the market. Reports receiver! state)
that the crop is withheld on bull account!
at New Orleans. If correct this will prob
ably cause heavy selling promptly. Offers,
for India were more numerous, but most of
them proved impracticable. There were
occasional offers for China, but few were
accepted. Little was done for South Amer
ica. Shipments for seven&l markets have
been expediter!, owing: to the pending tariff
changes, but shipments for Constantinople
and the Levant have been withheld. More
machinery has been stopped at Burnley',
and the running of looms on short time is
increasing. Yarns were slow and there were
few transactions.
