CHICAGO, Nov. I.— Diminishing receipts :
ami iln drought, which have been the main
Euppi ; I for Beveral Jays, both wei 1
by Ihi board today, aiid the result was a de
cline of lV&c in December him! l' 4 e in May. A j
heavy Increase i:i the visible added to the ,
discomfiture of the bulls. Corn and oats
wen a shade easier. Provisions were firm,
;ni(l advanced ''■ /n l:J'u>\
Wheat bad to encounter ;i great number r.f \
discouragements to begin with today, j'.nd I
lin > were added to by one other extremely
bearish feature that developed later. The j
breaking of the drought in Illinois ;uid In
diana, very heavy receipts in the Northwest,
lower quotations from Liverpool, world's ship- j
ments for the week heavier than expected,
and a further increase In the amount on
ocean passage— that was too formidable an
array of opposing forces for the bulls to
stand w\\ against, and consequently the op- ;
ening of the day's proceedings was at a de
cline pf about Ie per bushel. December range*]
from 96% cto : ( 7r at the opening. Offerings i
were nol so heavy as expected, and for this
reason a slow recovery to ri7 : 4 e ensued, which 1
was the highest point of the day. After that
prices sagged, the weakness becoming very ■
di cidi 1! when the Hgures on the visible, were j
announced. They showed an Increase of 2,- !
bu. This was a complete surprise, \
and showed how little can be learned of the i
changes in M"cks in regular elevators of the
country !>> taking the published daily re
ceipts at the principal market. Liverpool i
showed a 3d decline at the opening, but re- !
covered this later. Chicago receipts were 'M

neapclis reported 1,680 car loads, and Duluth
1,876 at the two places, compared with

ding weei; of the year before. Besides
the rail receipts, as mentioned for Chicago.
17,900 bu were received by canal, but the iat- i
ter was understood to be from a clearing 1
house (;ii the canal in the neighborhood of
Chicago. The quantity on ocean passage
showed an increase of 1.120.000 bu. the Eng
lish visible an Increase of 1,289,000 bu. The
total primary 1 1 ipts today were 1 Stil.O'W bu.

Iv about 12 o'clock December had declined
to 96c, and May, which had started at 94Vte??
94%p, was selling at 93% c. During the after
ndon the market showed some signs of ;
strength. A break of over IVic was tempting I
enough to many shorts, who Improved the op- '
portunltj tn take profits. This buying caused
a rally in December to WUc where it closed, j
Maj in the meantime recovered to and closed

recession from Saturday's price. It was due j

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. I— The local wheat
market opeucd lower and weak this morning
and for one hour and a half ruled weak and
wabbly. On inquiry the majority appeared to
feel strong In so far as sentiment was con
cerned, but the nctual trading belied their
Statements. The trading was fairly active
but the sum total was rather light, "with the
larger operators holding aloof, holding coun
sel with their fears. The enormous receipts
here, 1 was a very depressing fac
tor. The tables were filled fi to in tiers de-p
With samples of sood to indifferent wheat
Buyers were inclined to hold aloof and by
"'•*> '■■ <" comparatively little of the lare'e
offerings had been placed. The early news
of the day was rather conflicting and' on th*
whole a little discouraging to holders

The cash wheat market was very slow for
all grades today. The offerings were on an
enormous scale, and by noon there were large
quantities of all grains remaining unsold.
No. 1 northern sold at 2c over December, as
compared with 3c over on Saturday. No. 2
northern was a drag at 4c under Dec. Sixteen
hundred and eighty cars of wheat thrown on
a weak market was very disheartening to
the sellers. Eighty-one cars were shipped
out.
The market during the noon hour was
rather weak and inactive during the greater
part of the time. The English visible sup
ply shows an increase of 1.259.000 bu for the
week. New York reported thirteen loaila
taken for export. November wheat closed at
92% c, December at 91VsC and May at 91-s@

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 1 -Light receipts and
a good d(-*.and from jobbers and retailers is
giving tone to the butter market Extra
creameries are in big request at quotation?
with rec»pts from country points insufficient
to supply the call. Firsts and seconds are
in good demand and ,\re frequently substi
: tuted at the price difference in the" absence
I or fancy goods. Dairy extras are strong and '
j in big request. Medium ai;d low grades dair-
I ies are firm and wanted. The call for ladles
is picking up somewhat. Packing stock of
fancy quality is in excellent demand Eggs
are in light supply and firm at %c advance
The call from jobbers is of large proportions!
A good many cases are being taken out of
I storage. Cheese 's bracing up and handle's
are experiencing a geed demand for fancy
makes. Live hens and springs are in fair !
demand with receipts somewhat in excess
of the present call. Turkeys, ducks and geese
are in light supply and firm at quotation* i
Veal of fancy quality is a trifle easier and
handlers find X d ffi-ult tc obtain more than
7%c. Mutton and lamb are In light supply !
and cleaning up satisfactorily. Dressed hogs :
are firm and wan td. Potatoes, exceptiDg
White stock, are easy. There is a good cau
for straight varieties of white stock at Ps@
37c. R.td and mixed stock are hard to dis- i
pose of. Receipts of the two latter grades are
heavy.

NBW YORK. Nov. I.— Business in the
Stock market today was very small arid the
trading amounted to liule more than the
passing of holdings from ouo hand to the
i other. The professionals bought Btocks in
I the morning and so!d them iv the ai'Urnoon
■ with the result that nearly all not changes
re solved themselves into very small frac
tions, though the later reaction extended a
! little further than the early rise. The sale
: of the Union Pacific main line at Omaha
! had the effect of stiffening the price of
the stock, which rose at one time 1% above
the low point and saved a part of its ad-
I vantage at the close. The stock w;is, how
• ever, without buoyancy. Consolidated Gas
; also fluctuated in a characteristically erratic
! manner, dropping 2 points, rising 4 :l 4, and
closing the day with a net gain of 2. The i
grangers showed some strength during the i
day, but the gains were wiped out except In
the ease of Burlington and Northern Pacific
preferred. There was some buying of Louis
ville on the showing by its September state
ment of an increase in net earnings of $114.
--258. For the rest, brokers and operators
seemed to be more interested in discussing
the municipal election and betting on the
result than dealing in socks.
Today b; i rig a b:mk holiday in London,
no quotations were received from there to
influence results here, but there was light
buying of koiup storks in this market for
London account. The stiffening in the ratt
for call money is not regarded as liki ly to
last for any leng.h of time and is attribut
ed to operations incident to the November
disbursements on account of dividends and
Interest, which are estimated at about $":|,
--000,000.

on the London stock exchange, lt being All

may keep fairly tight for some tims to come,
with only a slight set-back in the discount
rate. Today large repayments from the mar
ket to the Bank of England were due, but
only a very small portion was paid off. Gold
is in strong demand for the continent at 7s

Simple Service* Over tho Remains
of Benrj George.
NEW YORK, Nov. I.— After a short. Blmple
funeral service the body of Henrj George
was finally laid to rest in Greenwood eenw
tery today, only a few persona were pn
at the family residence. The ceremonies to
r!:iy were ihe antithesis of y. ste; <hiy. In the
home, overlooking the Narrows, where Mr.
George had lived and worked, then was no
trace of mourning. In accordance with tl'o
expressed wishes "f the dead man. every
bit of crape had been removed from the
house. The Rev. Dr. John W. Kramer, of
Bath Beach, conducted the funeral service.
After reading part of the Episcopal service
for the dead, Dr. Kramer paid a touching
tribute to Mr. George, lie alluded to the facl
that td lya w;<s All Saints' day and. therefore,
fining occasion to commit the remains of
Henry George, one of the latter day Christian
saints, to the gravi . The i> wer ol religion
in social problems was questioned by a man
who was taalking with Mr. George. With
flashing eye. George replied: "ir religion
be nothing more than you think it to be.
our cause is !<>st becouse unless th< re i*
reality i;i religion and we can appeal through
it <i t humanity, we shall never get back
God's land for God's poor children."
Vfter the Lord's prayer had been s.iid by
all, ihe Rev. Dr. McGlynn paid a personal
tribute to the departed. He said it seem !
they were standing by the triumphal
ear of some Roman hero rather than bj the
bier of a dead philosopher, and ended by de
claring that Henry Gec-rge and ti.i c.ius- he
espoused were more alive than ever today
in the heai f ol I>< mi c-ra
In about ten minutes after the conclusion
of the exercises oppertunity was offered 'o
thuso in the bouse to at the
body in the coffin. Then the c din was
taken out Into ihe rain and placed in the

CATTLE ROOM CORNERED.
Freight Siui««- RoimrhJ hi by a Syn
illcnte.
CHICAGO, Nov. 1. A special to the Re ord
from New York says: There is practically
a corner in the ocean freight room for cat
i tie on the trans- \ laiil i nshl lines from
I thfs port. Philadelphia and Baltimore. The
j entire space has be< a • ngaged of the White
, Star line and the Atlantic Transport line for
i one year, beginning Jan. I, and of the Na
: tional line for two years from the same date,
1 by the representative of ■> syndicate said to
be composed of English buyers of cattle.
; It is ai.^cj reported that P. !». Armo'j . or
Chicago, is Interested. All the spare •
on the Wilsons and Furness-Leyland i.nes
lias been contracted for by oth< rs, and so
has the space of ihi Bristol line-, leaving no
space on regular Unes availabli for 10--al
Bhippers of cattle. The existence ol the cor
ner was contirmed today by William Lun
: ham. of the freight brokerage Bran of Lun-
I ham <t Moore, of the produce exchange. He
said: "Our firm has had the space for years
back. This syndicate, in which I Imagine P.
D. Armour Is Interested, simply earn Into
i the mark"t and overbid us-, paying \-± shillings
; and 6 pern c Brtish sterling per head for the
. a^aiiist ::7 .shillings and 6 pence, which
j has been the average price In late years. I
, suppose if we had chosen to bid the price
I up, they would have paid as high as 50
shillings. It is my idea that the corner is
being engineered by those who believe that
rhey foresee an era of short crops abroad,
big crops here, with lots of corn to feed
j to the cattle here making cattle here cheap.
Which can be sold dear abroad."
