The speculative equilibrium in Wall Btreet was disturbed in the late afternoon yesterday by the announcement that Laidlaw & Co., an influential banking house, acting ns agents for the Bank of California, had withdrawn from the subtreasury $1,300,000 in gold in exchange for greenbacks. This being the first substantial withdrawal since the termination of the Kold export movement, created a decidedly unfavorable Impression on the part of the traders and stocks reacted all along the line. The firm positively refused to discuss the subject of the withdrawal. Jn the absence of definite news on the subject, it was suggested that the withdrawal was lor the purpose of strengthening the gold reserve of the Bank of California, also that the gold was for account of a large California capitalist. The heaviest previous withdrawal of gold recently was that of $i00.000 by Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and the firm replaced the coin Thursday. It could not be learned whether the gold would be shipped out of town or would be left temporarily in the safe deposit vaults where It now lies. The New York stock market conditions were again favorable to the bulls yesterday. The market was active and aggressively strong, with an excellent distribution of dealings. London quotations came higher and early in the local operations a scarcity of stocks became evident. Covering of Shorts was a strong feature. The broadening tendency of the speculation was reflected In commission house orders and the inquiry covered a number of usually Inactive stocks, resulting in material gains. It is understood that the recent strength of the market. In the face of firmer exchange rates and the advance in the Bank of England rates, has been due to adroit manipulation against, the shorts in various properties by powerful operators, who are confident of material Improvement in the market in near future. The scope of these operations also takes in a foreign short interest in American securities estimated at over 100.WHI shares of the various Internationals. This short interest is the result of the system that prevails in London of selling calls on American securities for sixty or ninety-day periods. The calls at present outstanding have, to a large extent, been bought by the American operators who are now squeezing the shorts. The stocks have to be brought against the calls, all of which expire by the end of December. The market yesterday proved superior to continued stringency In money rates, a practically complete absence of demand for even a choice mercantile paper and further advance in botli actual and sterling rates, but in the late afternoon the unexpected news of a withdrawal of .$1,300,000 in gold from the subtreasury by a leading New York and California banking house precipitated selling for both accounts. The early advances in the active list extended to C per cent, in Cnicago,Gas and 2l2 In Sugar. The Industrials generally were helped by trade advices and the Southwestern shares by the expected restoration of harmony between the recent sharp rate-cutting roads. In the late recession Sugar lost 1 per cent, and the general list sharp fractions. The closing was steady at fractional net Improvements generally. Railway bonds exhibited strength, especially the speculative issues. The sales were $1,342,000. Government bonds were quiet, but firm on dealings of $11,000. Silver certificates were firm on sales of $18,000. The following table, prepared by L. W. Iuis.

Trade Very Unsatisfactory Price at 11 Low Ilanjce but Steady. On the wholesale streets and on Commission row trade has been disappointing. The improvement of the two preceding weeks led to the belief that business was to be better, but this week there has been an unusually light volume of business. In provisions there Is a fair October movement and prices are firmer in tone. The leather market presents some activity, doubtless due to the advancing tendency of prices, but with groceries and dry goods houses it is very quiet this week and the same is true on Commission row. Apples, Irish and sweet potatoes, cabbage, onions, in fact all vegetables are selling at low prices. Poultry is weak at 5c and eggs are not as firm as a week ago, but not quotably changed. The hay market Is dull, the flour market fairly active, but prices eatder than last week. The local grain market has had a backset the laft day or two. Wheat yesterday went off another cent and a half and closed weak. Corn and oats are steady. Track bids ruled as follows: Wheat No. 2 red, 72c; No. 3 red, 63c; No. 4 red. Sfi'geie; wagon wheat, 70c.

Many Industrial Contracts Conditional on the Election Dun .t Co.'s and Bradstreet's Reviews. NEW YORK, Oct. 23. It. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: The event of the week has been tho sensational advance of wheat to 83 cents for cash on Tuesday, a rise of 3',2 cents and its fall to 77 cents on Thursday, gaining 1 cent on Friday. The rise was magnified by covering of speculative sellers, who imagined the advance had gone too far, but was at the bottom based on an extraordinary foreign demand, which has engaged grain vessels from all Pacific sis well as Atlantic ports for months ahead. How great the shortage in ordinary European supplies may be is the point of doubt and speculation, but none now question that shipments from Pacific coast to India and the decrease in Russia's yield are important and the buying of enormous quantities for export, with engagements of freight room at higher rates, express the belief of European dealers. Wheat exports from the Pacific coast are large and over 500,000 bushels per day have been engaged ahead for- some time. The Atlantic exports, about 600.000 bushels larger than last year for the same week, have been in October 6,570.213 bushels, flour Included, against 5.0S6.3SS last year. It is worthy of note that Western roads are complaining of a car famine, the demand for movement to markets being so great, though the actual receipts for three weeks at Western ports have been 21,193,716 bushels, against 23,061,544 last year, following a much increased movement in the quarter ending with September. Corn moves largely and at lower prices, having declined a cent on the week. Cotton has advanced a sixteenth to S cents, with only moderate transactions and heavy receipts from plantations. Estimates of yield vary all the way from Mr. Neill's S.000,000 bales, to much less than 8,000,000, but the impression grows that the yield will be large. The most striking feature of industrial returns ia tho number of contracts conditioned upon the election. These already are enough to make business rather lively for a time, and many others are pending which will probably be held back unti. Nov. 1. The buying of materials not only advances prices, but induces larger purchases of the finished products without conaitions. Leather has risen l'- per cent., with a gentral demand, though most.y in hemlock sole and union, and hides at Chicago have, been advanced saiil further by pacKers, though country hides do not rise at all, and some are iower, but the average of all Is 6 per cent, higher. Buying of Bessemer pig at Pittsburg causes a s.ight advance, and all markets are strong for pig, but not for finished products. Very low prices are made for speedy delivery by mills wanting work. But the tone of the market is better, and a decided increase of orders appears in plates, about 3,0(?0 tons for buiuling vessels of the lakes and instructural wotk at the West, owing to contracts taken at Chicago for buildings at Boston, Toronto, Ictrnit and Minneapolis. There is also a great demand expected for cars, and the association offers to sell iron until Nov. 6 to jobbers and large buyers at $1.03, while steel bars are veiling largely at 1 per cent. A reduction in nabs is expected; but the rail season is over and the billet pool has little business. A sale of about 3,000,000 pounds was made of lake copper at loie to domestic consumers. Tin is a shade higher at 12.80c. Failures for the week have been 274 in the United States, against 231 last year; and 60 in Canada, against 33 last year. Iirudstrect's Review. NEW YORK, Oct. 23. Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: General trade continues along conservative lines, buyers and sellers preferring to defer business until after election. Traders are more hopeful as to the outlook for business later in the year and next spring. The reaction in wheat prices, after an advance of 22 cents, is the natural result of a desire to realize profits, an advance in rates for money and enormously heavy receipts of wheat at primary markets caused by higher prices. Comparatively small stocks of wheat in importing countries, a decrease in the world's total production of wheat for two years In succession, unexpected shortages in Russia, India, Argentine and Australia, and only an average crop in the United States are interpreted to mean that the price of wheat will advance further. The total exports of wheat (dour included as wheat) from both coasts of the United States and from Montreal this week are not quite as iarge as last week, or for four preceding weokf , but are heavier than in corresponding w. tks in three preceding years, amounting: to 3.823,000 bushels, as compared with 4,156.000 last week, 2,658,000 bushels in the corresponding week of one year ago. 3,353.0i0 bushels two years ago. 3.327,000 bushels three years ago ard 4.078.0HO bushels in the third week of October, Exports of Indian corn continue heavy, amounting to 2,897.000 bushels for the week. 50 per cent, more than last week, more than twice as much as in the week one year ago. thirty times as much as in the corrseponding week of 1X94 and three times as much as was sent abroad in the like week of 1S93 and In 1S92. Mercantile collections continue as difficult to make as heretofore, except in a few of the larger cotton growing States and in the spring wheat region, where rapid marketing of cotton and wheat has rendered funds more plentiful. There are 292 business failures reported throughout tho United States this week which is thirteen more than last week thirty-three moro than in the corresponding week last year and seventy-ono more than In the .'ike week of 1S04 , but thirty-seven fewer than in the third week of October 1VJ3. There are forty-eight business failures reported throughout the dominion of Canada, as compared with thirty last week and with thirty-six respectively in each of tho corresponding weeks of 1S03 and js?4.

WHEAT RECOVERS 2 5-8C

STRONG CABLES ENCOURAGE THE BULLS TO STOCK UP AGAIN. Firmness Extended to the Markets for Other Grain. Corn Advancinga Cent Pork Is Higher. CHICAGO, Oct. 23. Wheat to-day recovered from the panicky condition which characterized it yesterday, and closed with the very comfortable advance of 2c. Unexpectedly strong cables and evidences that tho money market was easing were the main causes of the strength. Corn and oats were proportionately strong, closing lc up and "&c higher, respectively. Provisions advanced SSLc. Wheat opened at quite a material advance from the closing figures of yesterday. This was no surprise to many of th experienced speculators who expected a "natural reaction after such an unnatural decline," as one trader put it. The tone of the early cables did not show the weakness that was anticipated. Liverpool reported a decline of 141 per cental, or the equivalent of 19ic per bu for futures of red American wheat at the opening and shortly afterward cablegrams of a later time of day reported a recovery of more than onehalf of the decline it began with. This caused the early strength. December, which at the end of Tuesday's session was bringing only 70T4c, was wanted as soon as the trading commenced at from 72c to 72c. These prices satisfied the first batch of buyers. But enough selling orders were put on the market to cause an immediate reaction to 71c The early advices from New York were strong. That city reported that last night's cabled offers of wheat and flour to the other side had been largely in excess of orders to sell. As these reports came in there was a sharp upturn to prices, which culminated in an advance to 73c. Fluctuations of this kind were frequent all day. The discount on spot wheat at Minneapolis compared with the price for December had again widened to 4c per bu indicating continued stringency in the money market. In the local market, however. No. 3 spring sold at Sftic discount, against 8Ca) 10c yesterday and indicated some easing of the money stringency. Atlantic port clearances of wheat were very snall. or rather quite insignincant. being only 21.GO0 bu. Flour, however, was shipped to the extent of 53,652 barrels, making the wheat and flour together equal to 260,000 bu. There was a sharp, nervous spurt during the last fifteen minutes on late higher cables and reported export business, and December sold to 73yc. The closing was firm at 73tsc. Corn shared in the strength which, ruled in wheat and was also helped by the somewhat higher cables. When the upward trend became apparent there was a disposition on the part of shorts to cover and this demand was a strengthening factor. The export demand was also encouragingly liberal, but tho full advance was not sustained. May corn opened higher, at 28c, sold up to 23?i2Sc split, fell to 2S'8c and closed firm at 2"S12,S2Sc. Oats were firm and higher and a good business was transacted. While the action of wheat was mainly responsible for the strength there was considerable independence to the market. The opening strength was a surprise to speculators, and shorts soon started buying. The strength was well maintained to the end. May opened about c higher at 21c, advanced to 22c, eased off to 21 c and closed steady at 21?bC. The provision market was firm and not having a weak wheat market to contend with as it had yesterday the prices advanced. There was also a noticeable absence of offerings, but on the other hand demand was limited and a narrow range of prices resulted. At the close January pork was 121aC higher at $7.87; January lard .05c higher at 4.45c; January ribs .05c higher at 3.82' 2c.

Oct. 23.A Winnipeg dispatch says that the wheat markets in Manitoba have gone wild, owing to a struggle between the Ogilvies and the Lake of the Woods Milling Company. At every point they are outbidding each ether, and the farmers are reaping the profit and hope the fight may continue. At Net-pan on Saturday the rival buyers paid 93 cents a bushel for wheat, or 20 cents a bushel more than it was worth in Chicago. At nearly all points 65 cents is being paid, which is 6 cents higher than it can b bought for export. The result is that there Is a great rush of wheat to market, and all the elevators are full. The Canadian Pacific railway was prepared for such an emergency and has promptly handled the wheat oflered. Last week It carried more than a million bushels to the East. It is estimated here in Montreal that Mr. W. W. Ogilvie has purchased at least 1.250.000 bushels cf the Manitoba crop, the Lake of the Woods Milling Company a round million cf bushels, and that out of the province's total yield four million bushels have Veen already sold, netting to farmers something like $2,50.1,009. , AT NEW YORK.

Wool. BOSTON. Oct. 23. The Boston Commercial Bulletin will say to-morrow of the wool market: Dealers are refusing orders tor wool at current quotations. Wool generally has advanced 35c the scoured pound since the Vermont and Maine elections, whether it rises further depends to no small extent on the Australian market. Fortunately wool there is quite llrm. The lofts in Boston are crammed with wooi withdrawn from the market in anticipation of a further rise. The present advance is pretty sure to be felt in the event of McKinley's election, but It is noticeable that some of the keenest operators in the trade firn free sellers on the rise. The mills are well stocked with wool waiting for orders for goods. Ohio XX has advanced since August from 17c to 19c; Michigan X from 13c to 15c; Canada quarter-blood from lie to 16c. The sales of the week are 3.711,000 pounds domestic and 535.000 pounds foreign, against 2.874.000 pounds domestic and 771,000 pounds foreign last week and 3,503,000 pounds domestic and 1,376.000 pounds foreign for the same week last year. The sales to date show a decrease of CI.277.36.1 pounds domestic and 35.598,700 pounds foreign from the sales to the same date in 1895.
