CRISIS IN CALL LOANS ORLY SMALL OFFERIMiS ASD RATES AUVAMED TO IOO PER tKXT. Danker Anticipate Farther Troolile Before !et Wednesday Local Markets Xejsiccted. At New York yesterday money on call was very stringent at 10'alOO per cent.; last loan, 80; cloned, 80. Prime mercantile paper, nominally, IVz &10 per cetit. Sterling exchange was strong, with actual business In bankers' bills at $t.8t12'S4.85 for demand and i.KlAii.SZ for sixty days; posted ratew, $4.8234.82 and 14.85; commercial bills. $4.S0.. Bar silver, 64c; silver certificates, 65 65VjC. Bar silver at London, 29 13-16d per ounce. Total sales of stocks were 232,171 shares, including the following: American Tobac co. 4,40u; American sugar, 4o.'jw; uurungton & Qulncy, 22,000; Chicago Gas, 14.600; Louisville & Nashville, 10,400; Manhattan Consolidated, 6,800; Reading, 17,500; Rock Island, 4,300; St. Paul, 35,500; Tennessee Coal and Iron, 5,100; Union Pacific, 4,600; Southern railroad preferred, 4.300; silver certificates, $24,000. The course of the New York stock market yesterday was dominated by extreme stringency In the rates for call money, the extreme high point touched being per cent, pcf day plus 6 per cent, interest, or almost equivalent to 100 per cent, per annum. The lowest point was 10 per cent., early in the day, and the closing was at 80 per cent. Even at the high points the offerings of funds were not large, the supply coming chiefly from the lenders of foreign money and the trust companies. The stringency was due to the efforts of the bankers to strengthen themselves as much as possible in preparation for possible heavy demand for accommodations in the next few days. The Nov. 1 Interest and dividend disbursements are fairly large and that date falls on Sunday. The banks cannot call loans that are made Saturday and loans made to-day go over to Monday. Then again loans made on Monday must carry over until Wednesday. The Hurry occasioned revived rumors of the probable issue of clearing-house certificates, but it is well known that such a step will not be taken except as a last resource and the present rtringency Is not expected to last more than a few davs. This strine-encv is eonlined to Wall street and It is understood that the needs of the dry goods and other merchants are being supplied at 6 per cent, by .their commission banks. Money is being drawn out of the banks to the extent ;hat legal tenders can be secured. A feattire of the day yesterday was the calling and, shifting of loans and some of the money disturbed was reloaned in the street at the high rates. An increased demand for cash gold and a slight advance in the premium or "commission" by bullion dealers was also noted. Some apprehension is expressed that further stringency in money rates may occur to-day. There is practically no short time money obtainable. In one Instance 60 per cent, was paid for a ttveday loan expiring Nov. 4 on a loan of $100,000. The stock market steadied slightly from time to time on covering of shorts, but the trend was downward and the closing at the lowest of the day. The more extreme declines Included 2V& in St. Paul preferred; Sugar, Rock Island and Lake Shore, 2V4: St. Paul, 2V8; Kansas & Texas preferred, 2; Burlington, Delaware & Hudson and Manhattan, 1; Denver preferred, 14; Louisville & Nashville, 1. and 14 per cent, in Reading and Western Union. In the specialties Laclcade Gas broke 3 per cent, on liquidation. Aside from the activity In money ths general market was unfavorably affected by the uneasiness in the foreign financial centers regarding the depression In Kaffir gold mining shares and apprehensions of tight money. The Burlington September statement, showing a decrease of $107,534 In net earnings and a decrease of $114,580 in expenses, although less unfavorable than had been expected, increased the depression in the grangers. Chicago Gas rallied 2i per cent, from the early loss on the reported judicial modification of the long-continued injunction restraining the payment of dividends upon 4he Fidelity Trust receipts for the stock of the companies. Subsequently the stock reacted in sympathy with the depression in tho general list. The market left on! weak. 1 Railroad bonds reacted sharply In sympathy with tho depression in the stock market, with the Reading and Atchison issues scoring extreme declines of P?i2 per cent, on Increased dealings. The sales were $1,076,000. Government bonds declined sharp fractions on sales of $41,500. Silver certificates irregular, but closed per cent, higher on dealings of $24,000. f,1IIoin tabJeA.

Drilling; Operations Falling; Off Owing; to Redneed Prices Controlled ly Standard Oil Company. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MONTPELIER, Ind., Oct. 29. The great Indiana oil field, like the Ohio field, shows a decrease in completed work for October. This was expected and looked for, owing to the fact that the price of drilling has in nearly every case, been cut to 40 cents per foot, and at those figures the oil well contractors will not wear out their tools. The cause of the cut in drilling Is laid to the door of the Standard Oil Company, but whether or not they are to blame is a mystery. There still remains plenty of money among the oil operators to push the drill. The Indiana oil field is fully as good as any other field yet developed, and the wells cost less money than In Ohio or in the Eastern fields. The wells are as good in this State as in any other. So far no great gushers have been1 drilled In the State, but they are yet to come. This State will in time surprise the oil public by the unearthing of some wonderful gushers, like the famous McMurray, Klrkbrlde, McHoIlister, Mercer, Dukat, Niece and many others in the Ohio field. All of these gushers were surrounded by light wells or dry holes. In the Camden pool in Jay county, this State, is some of the same kind of territory, and many good wells were completed in the pool. The first well completed on the Hannah M. Harris farm, in the northwest corner of Penn township. Jay county, is one of the most wonderful acting wells ever completed in the United States. This. well when first drilled in produced but fifteen barrels of oil and 1.500 barrels of salt water. Within forty days frcm the time the well was finished It was doing but little water and 1,400 barrels of oil. In this same pool at least five hundred wells were finished, but none of them equaled the famous Harris well. Well No. 7, on the McCollister farm, near the hamlet of Nottingham, did 120 barrels an hour, and without doubt is the largest well ever completed in the State. More of this kind are looked for right in the heart of the gas belt. The gas territory will gradually go to oil as the gas pressure works off from the Trenton rock. The Indiana field bids fair to extend from Bluffton to the extreme southeast corner of the State, and there connect with the coming fields of the South. The Standard has evidently stopped opt-ratlons for the time being, or until the Cudahy pipe line is completed, and then they will go in for a fight with ihe new concern. It is hoped that the new line will prove a success, as It will without a doubt be a great thing for the field. In Ohio the Standard has everything its own way, with the exception of a few smaller concerns that are using .oil sufficient for their refineries.

Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. Let no one doubt the influence of Wash;ngton department clerks in this election. An authentic story is told at Republican headquarters of a party manager from a tit West town, who had been doing t-.rsonal ork with a family in which were several votes. It was a Republican family, but free silver had made inroads, and the managers could find no means of heading off this tendency with argument or appeal. Finally a young scion of the family was learned to be In the departments at Washington, and "sound" on the mony question. A letter was straightway penned a manager In this city to see him and secure his Influence. The department clerk complied, and wrote home a stirring appeal to support the St. Louis candidates. The latest advice Is that the aged father, an uncle and his son-in-law have been won back to the fold and that three more votes are assured for McKltiley. This is cited as an example of the thorough campaign Republicans have been waging.

WHEAT AGAIN HIGHER

STRENGTH IN FOREIGN MARKET CAl'SED AN ADVANCE OF 1 1-SSC. Rapid Fluctuations, the Leaillng Cereal at One Time Tonelilng 7a l-4c Pork Incliangtrd. CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-Tho exceeding great strength of the foreign wheat markets at their opening to-day and again us they were closing caused an advance in wheat of about ljc per bu. The gain at one time was 26c per bu, but money in New York, which was tightened to the very verge of strangulation, caused the reaction. Corn, oats and provisions were dull, without material change in value. The bullish whirl which wheat experienced yesterday afternoon was the mere raising of the dust by the preliminary gusts of wind which precede a hurricane. The 24e rise of the previous day was increased in the course of the first fifteen minutes to-day by the addition of another 24c. December, which closed on the day before at 7070340, sold as high as 73c in the time named. The rush of the buyers at the start was such that sellers easily secured from 71c to 72c at the first brush in the pit, and many got at least c above the lower of those two prices. In ten minutes the price had risen to 73c, and after reacting to 72'.4c, it rose to 734c From the latter point thera was a more serious decline than the first. The sudden bulge led to some suspicion that the hand of the manipulator was on the lever which controlled the movement. But there were other considerations which had much influence. The Liverpool cable was higher. There were private cablegrams confirming the bad crop situation In India and Australia and noting additional sales of cargoes to go to those countries. New York wired that foreigners were active buyers there at the opening and that the exporting houses which had large acceptances last night on cable offers were also buying freely. But the pace got too hot. Realizing started, and the accumulated bearish news, which had tMen lost sight of in the general hurrah, began to have Its effect. Minneapolis and Duluth received 1.221 carloads of wheat, compared with 1,090 Thursday last and 1,136 cars a year ago. That kind of movement repeated from day to day is rather unsettling to the smallcrop theory. The chief excuse for the break from 73ic to 714c had. however, nothing in common with the Northwestern movement. It was tight money in New York that did it. Reports from there in quick succession quoted call money 10 per cent., 15 per cent., 20 and 50 per cent, bid, and wheat was offered for sale in large quantities with the invariable result. Notwithstanding the 50-per-cent. rate for money in New York the strength of the foregoing cables at the close was such that buying again became general, and another jump to 721c resulted. A return of the money scare seized the crowd again, however, and another reaction to 71Tsc took place. The latest trading was at that figure. Business in corn was very quiet, the activity of wheat absorbing the interest of traders. The advance in wheat and firm cables were helping influences, but liberal Western offerings prevented much advance. May ranged frcm 28V428c to 28c. opening about c higher at 2S 28-vsc, and closed easy at 2J-428c. Oots were quiet, with prices firm earb but reacted later and closed with a slight loss at the close. Fluctuations were confined to a narrow range and influenced entirely through sympathy with wheat and corn. May opened a shade higher, at 21c. ranged between 2V&C and 21c and closed steady at 2IV2C Provisions were dull within a narrow range. The continued large hog receipts again exercised a depressing influence and caused a slight decline soon after the opening. This was recovered later in svmpathy with the advance in wheat. January pork closed unchanged at $7.80- January lard, .05e lower at 4.4oc; January ribs, .05c lower at 3.824c.
