Chicago, Nov. 8.- European political com plications vvri'e deemed sufficiently impor tant to justify a slight advance in wheat ■today. Advices very early in the morning reported a decidedly unsettled condition on the Paris bourse and quoted English con sols lower, but the crowd were disinclined to attach much importance as far as wheat was conc€Tned, to the reports. F mally shorts deemed it prudent to cover some, but .the attempt revealed a dearth of offer ings and a quick upturn of V>c. took place. The demand was then fully satisfied, the market from that time fin til the close rul ing steady and without extraordinary fluc tuations. December wheat opened from 58V4 Tv a need to and closed at 5812^ to 58c, adva...---- - .. . 5S%c, higher than yesterday. Cash wheat wan firm and %c per bushel higher. Corn—Firmness was prevalent in corn with the near futures presenting more than an even share of the strength. This was in consequence of the weather. Wheat ex tended a little of its surplus strength too and this was shown in the steadiness with which values were sustained. Fluctuation# w'ere, however, of little importance and significance, and the elose_ but_ sliglitly changed from tiiat of yesterday. May corn opened at 29:<k<\ sold at 29%c, closing at 29-fr peneu at h< , suiu al 5,“ '.8 .j20^60, a shade higher than yesterday. Cash corn" was Vic per bushel higher. Oats—The upturn in wheat had the efToet of arousing some slight interest in oats, but when things quieted the same old dull lethargic feeding fell upon the market, and the traders wandered to other parts of the room. The tone was fairly steady, but business attracted no attention. May oats closed a s 1 tude higher than yesterday. Cash oats were Vitfitec per bushel higher. Provisions—A weak hog market was dis regarded in products, a steady to Arm tone existing almost all day. Trade was not visibly improved, however, and the session In that respect was no better than any that have recently preceded It. The better feel ing in wheat apparently inlluenced the cov ering of some short stuff. At the Pfl.* ___JP_ m I close January pork and January lard wore each 2%c higher and January ribs a shade higher.

New York, Nov. 8.—The feature of the railway and miscellaneous speculation to day was the heavy selling of stocks for foreign account. The sales for London and the continent were estimated at 30,000 to 40,000 shares, the bulk of which was St. Paul and Louisville and Nashville. The feel ing abroad was unsettled and nervous. In London consols had a break of nearly 1 per cent, something quite out of tho ordinary, while the Paris markets were heavy. The heaviness of the foreign markets is of course in a great measure due to the Ar menian troubles, but the overspeeulatlon in south African mining stocks Is also a con tributing cause. Paris was a large, seller of securities in London, and the latter In turn sold here. The liquidations in this market stiffened slightly and cables sold as high as $4.87%. There will he no gold shipments tomorrow, but if the selling for London does not stop shortly hankers will not he surprised If shipments of metal are resumed next week. As there are no gold hills in the market, and the demand from remitters fortunately is light. Local boars who covered yesterday put out fresh short lines when they found the day a free seller. The decline In' prices was equal to % to % per cent. Louisville and Nashville dropped 3 to 52, Atchison 1% to 15%, Atchison pre _ ... — Baltimore and Ohio 2 to ferred 1% to 25%,-- - - , 6G, Canadian Southern 1% to 56%. St. Paul 2% to 73, Denver preferred 2 to 45%, Northern Pacific preferred 2% to 18%, Ontario and Western % to 1%. The remainder of the list held fairly steady for a time, but the continued .selling of the Issues named finally affected tho whole market. Some of the St. Paul sold today was said to he for the ac count of one or more of the new fashioned Bpeeulutive trading concerns, which have been carrying comparatively big lines of the Stock. In the industrials Sugar was steadier tft 98%®99%, on Treasurer Searle'a interview in which he takes rather a hopeful view of tho trade. Chicago Gas was raided down .to 68% and 05%. The amount of Fidelity Trust receipts now on deposit with the Central Trust company is *22,226,900. Leath er preferred was erratic. The stock closed at 67%, a net gain of % per cent, after sell ing at 66% to 68. When the foreign selling ceased the general list rallied % to % and closed steady. Other changes show losses of %W%. Pacific Mail, Tobacco and Sugar gained *4^?%. Bonds were lower; sales were $1,335,000. The sales of listed stocks aggregated 219, 770 shares, and of unlisted stocks 39,008 sIir res. New York.

New York, Nov. 8.—The Sun’s cotton re view pays: Cotton fell 15 points, then ral lied and dosed steady at a net decline of 12 lo 13 points, with sales of 306.600 boles. Liverpool declined l-32d on the snot with sales of 10,000 bales; futures declined '•> point early, recovered and advanced l point, then reacted and closed (pilet at a decline for the , day of 2 points. New Orleans dropped 18 to I 20 points and then recovered 10 to 12 points. The exports of yarns of the United King dom in October amounted to 23,000,000 I pounds, against 22,520,600 pounds In the same month last year; total for season 213,489,300 pounds, against 195,008,100 pounds last sea son. In Manchester yams were dull and ir regular; others were quiet. New Orleans’ receipts tomorrow are esti mated at 6000 to 7000 bales, against 9128 bales last Saturday. Interior receipts for the week 153,009 bales, against 156,875 bales hist week and 257,00$ bales for *the same week last year; interior shipments 128,743 bales, against 151,062 bales last week and 259,G28 bales for tin* same week last year. » The East India crop is estimated at 3/250, 000 bales, an increase of 600,000 bales as com pared with that of last year.

Today’s features: A decline in Liverpool, a sharp drop in British consols, the un settled financial and political situation in Europe and unexpected large receipts In tho interior towns exerted a depressing in fluence on cotton today. Moreover the southern markets, outside of Texas, were said todie offering cotton more freely. Some of the s.pot markets were lower. New Or leans sold to some extent, and there was also more or less selling for other ports of the south, to say nothing of local liquida tion. While German operators here at tacked the market. Some of the southern wires were down and this interfered with business and tended to increase the depres sion for the time being. General Cotton Markets. rules. Galveston... Norfolk. Baltimore.
