6 FEALET WILL STAND. The Little St. Louis Speculator Says He is Short Wheat, but He Wont Kirn. The Price of Wheat Works Down About a Cent Without Much Ex citement. The "Usual Sympathetic Decline in Corn, Oats and Provisions, All Closing Weak. , The Wall Street Market Opens With a Boom, but Closes Weak. and Dull. Chicago. Special to the Globe. Chicago. Oct. '29.— MoseFraley and I John Cudahy are shorts in the wheat mar- j ket. The latter, it is believed, covered to- i day to some extent on track, but he still j talks bearish. Fraley declares he is satis- j fied with the outlook, and does not propose j to run. His short interest is. of course, j very much smaller than Mr. Cudahy's. El- j dredge & Co. are believed to be sitting on their wheat a very good-sized hump it I makes to sit on, too. —and to be waiting for j something to turn up. With the positions I of these parties in mind one has about all there is to the speculative situation. Other traders get in and get out of the market on j a good scale, but they are not in except on a scalping basis. This morning there was bin one notable trade, or sale of 300.000 bushels at one clip by "Cush" Gifford to Kauiuierer, but both parties are big scalpers, and it excited no comment. Gilford was afterward a buyer at a lower price from George Smith. Milmine. Bod man & Co. were large sellers, but it is be lieved that they were selling for Bonss of Baltimore, another scalper. So that of late there is no trade except on the part of the scalpers, and they are not people to tail after; they move from one side to another altogether too rapidly to fallow up. Wheat was sensitive as jelly. It opened rather quietly at yesterday's closing prices, dropped a trifle a:ul then ADVANCED WITH A SHOW OF STRENGTH .'•. Hobbs and Comstock were vigorous 1 buyers, bat the crowd was bearish and sold ! bravely under the lead of Giftord and other j energetic brokers. Very gloomy private cables to the effect that Liverpool was weak and lower and that there was no possibility j of a foreign demand for American wheat at ' present prices*, together with the posting of j an increase of 50,000 quarters in the j amount for passage to the United King dom, discouraged buyers, and Sl%c for De cember proved to be a turning point in the tide. The market broke 1c before 12 o'clock, and the situation was heavy. Wheat grew positively loggy j and nothing could put life into it, ap- J parently. Uncertainty as to the course to 1 be pursued by the Minneapolis millers is j one potent element of the existing nervous- j ness on the part of operators. It has been asserted and denied, with equal positiveness, that they will shut down on or about Nov. 1, and the millers themselves are non-com mittal. They say, that if freights are ad vanced they will close down for a certainty, and that if freights do not advance they may continue grinding. Railroad officials both affirm aad contradict statements about advancing rates, and this adds to the uncertainty. Meantime the millers around about the Falls of St. Anthony are not letting March wheat get past them. 'Vhen their buyers came into competition with those from Duluth THEY OUTDID THE LATTER, but'in the territory penetrated byroads that are compelled to bring grain to or through St. Paul and Minneapolis, they show no ambition to do business. Talk bearish and bid l(«i"c under the market. They do not seem anxious to stimulate deliveries, but at the same time they are on guard night and day to see that 110 good wheat escapes. The wheat pit was comparatively quiet all the j morning, and the volume of business was | under rather than over the average, though bo ii:' large lots were traded in by the whales of the pools. There was a still further de cline during the last hour, and the concluding .sales of the morning were on a basis of SGc for October and November, 873£@88c for December, SSl£c for January and Us&c-for | May, a decline of %c from yesterday; and j J:,"' 1 '.ie from the highest point touched I on the morning bulge. There was a %Q'o\:'c \ decline during the afternoon, and the shorts i ran to cover with the greatest unanimity. The close was weak at 85% c November, 87% c December, 88c January, (J4;Vc May. Daily Business has some pert comments on the markets which are here appended: C. A. Pillsbury of Minneapolis was on 'change to-day. Asked whether the mills •would close down on the Ist, he was silent a moment, and then said that they would wait until the Nt and see how orders for flour cumo in before making up their minds. We j trust that this information will not have a fatal effect on such of our readers as may have heart disease. Skeptic Armour is ore 4,000,000 bushels; Sammy Eggleston is short 3,000 000 bushels; I Sara EldredjfQ is short 3,000,000 bushels. Like- I wise they hold about the same amount of cash wheat. The question naturally 'arises, who Is long-? A St. Paul information bureau telegraphs that 102J; percent, of the threshing: is done ! at this writing. There is nothing . like keep ing at the bead of the procession. The above i telegram reminded J. W. Preston of a wit ness in ii suit in which he is Interested, who swore that property bought three years ago ii::.i depreciated 300 per cent. Corn was firm early and weaker after ward. The changes in price, however, not great and (lie trading far from heavy. Liverpool reported not much demand, but the amount on passage to the United King dom and to the continent showed a decrease of 75.000 quarters from last week. October corn sold off y>c and acted quite heavy, while November advanced J^c early and then declined ",<■. Colder weather was considered to be advantageous to the new crop, and this j fact had its weight with holders. Present prices for corn must soon give way. The close was, 40% c October; 3D><Tc Novem ber; 37c year; 35% c January; 38 % c May. An increased demand for cash provisions was the only new feature in the market for products to-day, and prices were well maintained. Very little business was doing in futures.

Special to the Globe. DtrujTH, Minn., Oct. 29.—1n our market we have had a quiet day's business. The speculative feeling has been very pacific and the desire to trade restricted to the filling up of orders usually on the lloor at this time in the week. Curb trading was light and indif- i ferent, with a general feeling of firmness. Opening trades brought out more buyers thau j sellers, but operators could not come together In their views for some time. The first sale w.- s reported on the split at 98)£®S6)gc De cember, with free sellers at\93Jic. May was in demand, but was held above the views of buyers and did not sell until December had reached 93% c, which it did in a tardy kind of way, buyers evidently not wanting large amounts and sellers very conservative in their offerings. May was first reported at SI.OI. With December at 93% c and May at .01, the advance culminated and the feeling gradually worked easier, with the demand con tinuing light. About noon December had sold back to 93% c and May to 81.00%. Northern wheat has been in very light request all day. No sales of future were reported. Cash wheat has been in demand, but sparingly offered, the trading being principally confined to No. 1 Northern, opening at 83c and selling up to SSJ£c. Small sales of No. 1 hard were re ported at 91c. Toward the close the feeling worked easier and the demand continued light, December selling at 94c, with $1 bid for May. At the close the feeling was nominally; 93c December, $1.00% May, December North ern 89% c. Sales: December, 50.000 bu No. 1 hard at 93%@93Kc, 130,000 bu No. 1 hard at 93% c, 10,000 bu No. 1 hard at 93% c, 10 000 bu No. 1 hard at 93% c, 30.000 bu No. 1 hard at 93%©a3%c, 20,000 bu No. 1 hard at 93% c; May, 35,000 bu No. 1 hard at SI.OI, 5,000 bu No: 1 hard at $1.00% c, 20,000 bu No. 1 hard at $1.00%, 20,000 bu No. 1 hard at $1.00%, 25,000 bu No. 1 hard at 51.00%. cash, 1 car No. 1 hard at 91c, 30,000 bu No. 1 Northern at 98c. 4 cars No. 1 North ern at 88c, 4 cars No. 1 Northern at 83% c; January, 10,000 bu No. 1 hard at 94%.

New York, Oct. 29.—The stock market was opened with another boom and during the first hour of trading it looKed as if prices would go much higher. It was given out that the program of the Xewcomb party to put St. Paul to 90 . was still adhered to, and Mr. Armour was quoted as saying that an unusually large proportion of stock was now held by insiders for investment. The rumor that Mr. Yanderbilt had transferred his holdings of Reading was believed by many well-informed people and it was stated that a new bull pool in Erie common had been formed. Points were asain cur rent early in the day to buy Pacific Mail, in siders being quoted as saying that it would reach 75 during the winter. The early spurt in the market, however, was stopped by discouraging news, alleging a rather shaky condition of rates east-bound from Chicago. Lake Shore and the trunk line stocks de clined about a point and the whole market weakened in sympathy. All stocks', loaned flat, indicating that that interest was prac tically out of the market and that the public had got on." The sales to noon were 194,496 shares and at that time the market was dull, heavy and . inactive. -. The September statement of , the ;. Norfolk - & - Western THE ST. PAUL DATLT GLOBi; FRIDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 30, 1885. showed a decrease of $2,600 and a net de crease since Jan. lof 824,500. Illinois Central's earnings for the third week of October decreased 88.620. S. V. White was reported a great bull on Western Union, and was quoted as saying it would go to 90. St. Paul and North western earnings for November, it was stated, will show a much larger increase than October has shown. The earnings for the fourth week of October, however, are not expected to increase as much as during the weeks preceding. Vanderbilt brokers were free sellers of Lake Shore and New York Central just before the close, and some large lines of St. Paul and North western were closed out. The character of the market at the close was dull and heavy, the last quotations being about the lowest for the day. New York, Oct. 29. — Government bonds were dull and strong. State bonds wore quiet and weak. The demand for railroad bonds for investment continues active at advancing quotations, and a large number of issues were traded in to-day, irenerally in small amounts. The sales aggregated $3,630, --000, of which Erie 2d consols contributed $913,000. The stock market to-day was dull, hesitating, feverish and irregular, and, tak ing the day as a whole, weak. The total re ported sales were less than 300,000 shares, St. Paul and Lake Shore, with transactions aggregating 40,000 and 45,000 shares each, re spectively, Erie with 27,200 shares and Read ing with 24,800, contributed over 46 per cent, of the day's business. Among the more act ive stocks a dozen were highest at the open ing, and at the close %@}4 per cent, below the lowest price reached, but the range, with few exceptions, was within 1 per cent. The market, which was irregular at the opening and during most of the afternoon, be came somewhat firmer and so continued until about 2 o'clock. During the last hour it was weak, and closed, as compared with last evening, with net losses of %®% per cent., and with exceptional losses of 1 per cent, in New York Central and 1% in Lake Shore. Norfolk & Western and Canadian Pa cific are down 1% each. Peoria, Decatur & Evansville % per cent, lower. St. Paul opened unchanged at 88 and in the forenoon rose % per cent., but lost the advance and % per cent, more later in the day and closed at THE LOWEST FIGURE reached.

Lake Shore lsts' price showed a loss of % at 81%, and it declined in the forenoon to 80 %. The fluctuations thereafter were limited to % per cent., but the decline in the last hour was % per cent., and it closed at 80%.

The fluctuations in Louisville & Nashville were % per cent., and the decline as compared with last evening is % per cent. The parties who are working for a decline were aided to-day by rumors that there was cutting in both passenger and freight rates again in the West. The report that Commissioner Fink had called a meeting of the trunk line presidents for to-morrow is denied. It is not known when they will meet again.
