Money on call yesterday at New York was easier at 3Q8 per cent.; last loan was 3 per cent.; prima mercantile paper brought 5&6 per cent.

Silver certificates were K'fjMc; bar silver. ESttc; Mexican dollars, 47c. Bar silver sold In London at 2G&d per ounce. The New York stock market fell flat again yesterday. The dullness made evident that yesterday's j upward ppurt was due almost entirely to covering by short?, who to-day were Inclined to regret their precipitancy. The warlike situation between England and the TYansvaal was almost without effect. In fact the London market seemed to feel rather encouraged than otherwise over the termination of the uncertainty and operators there Inclined to bid up the prices of some of the American stocks In sympathy with the advance of the Kafflre. The rise was shortlived on this side and the dragging tendency of prices was not much changed, at any time tmtll the close of the market at prices below last night's level all around. The money market was distinctly easier. The . causes of this were quite apart from the action of the Treasury Department In offering to anticipate the government Interest payments for the remainder of the fiscal year. -For one thing the subtreaaury figured at the clearing house again , yesterday as a debtor for over a million. Government disbursements are running quite lieavy, due in large part to pension payments. A sum of gold was received from Havana yesterday on account of postal revenues and a small additional shipment of French gold was received. The rate for call money ruled for the greater amount of loans at 7Q8 per cent, and fell to 3 per cent, in Che late dealings. Money continues to go to the interior 2r. large volume. Not so cheerful a view Wiis taken of the effect of the Treasury Department's action with regard to anticipated interest. Under the terms of the department's order the amount of interest to be paid out this week is only about 11.600.000 and that not until Friday. Of ccurre. only part of it is payable in New York. The next disbursement comes on Oct. SO. The requirement for the presentation of registered bonds for Indorsement before payment is made I also expected to operate against a general acceptance of the Interest. The action of the Treasury Department nevertheless has had the effect of allaying apprehension in Wall street; but It is perceived that whatever relief Is afforded is not likely to furnish a supply of surplus funds Xor the benefit of stock speculators. Business in bonds was very well distributed and the tendency of prices was downward. Total sales, par value, $2,083,000. United States new fours, coupon.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: The ultimatum from the Traarvaal Republic created no excitement in the markets here to-day, having been received yesterday without anxiety. Thera was a drooping tendency in most departments, however, until near the close, when a slightly better tone developed. Consols were down a little from yesterday's top price of 103 9-16. The opinion expressed on the market here Is, so far as military operations in South Africa are concerned, there will be a deadlock, practically, until the British army corps which has been formed for operation there begins to advance, in December. American securities opened firm and developed strength, but in the absence of New York support they sagged toward the close. The Bank of England bought 176,000 gold in bars and 16.000 in French coin. Money was slack and showed little change In call loans. Wednesday's Bank Clearing;. At New York-Clearinga, I1S9.2U.166; balAlices, $0,7094 T. At Boston ciearins, $25,749,261; balances, J2,5445T,4.

A Good Day Trade and Steadiness in Price a Feature. The result of the election may have unfavorably affected trade at Indianapolis, but. outside of the c'Aj, business was at high tide.

In each cas their business exceeding all former Octobers, and In every other line of trade good reports axe heard. In prices there were but few changes. Eggs and poultry, on large receipts, carry an easier tone, and vegetables are coming In so freely that rrlces are easing off somewhat. Fruits of the season, grapes excepted, are bringing good prices.

WAR NEWS BOOMED IT

CHICAGO GIIAIX MARKET MUCH STRO.NGER'AT HIGHER miCES. Henry Export Demand Helped the Good Work AIong-Bradstreet's Report of the Available Supply. CHICAGO, Oct. 11. War news, primarily. and enormous export engagements. Inci dentally, made wheat a strong market to day and resulted In an advance- of In the leading future. Corn was even stronger, advancing lc for December and c for May, -wheat Influences and heavy export engagements prevailing. Oats clowtl iVic higher. Provisions were heavy and closed with slight declines for lard and ribs, but unchanged for pork. With an advance at Liverpool of Uid as an incentive to buying, wheat started strong and at an advance of He, December open ing at 2'g72ic. Previous to the opening reports were received that war actually had been declared between England and the Transvaal. The situation had the effect of increasing the volume of trading to a marked degree. The opening advance was sufficient to induce a good deal of short selling and a slight reaction followed, December ultimately easing off to 72Uc. The market, before noon, became quite dull and heavy, short selling and realizing being encouraged by a loss of a good part of the advance at Liverpool, but the December price did not get (below 72Uc, and for the greater part of the time was at 728c. Dur ing the afternoon the market again bscame strong and decidedly active on reports of big seaboard engagements and an excel lent cash demand at outside points, though it was dull here. The export engagements were put at 75 loads. Corn developed great strength, and this also Influenced wheat. Professional traders who had sold during the early part of the session covered as best they could, and this and heavy buying for the long account sent prices upward In a hurry. Top prices were made near tho close, December reaching 73c and closing at that price, an advance of iQTsC. Primary receipts were liberal, though much lighter than a year ago. The total was placed at 1,238,000 bu, against 1,672,000 bu last year. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 7J0 cars, compared with &2C last week and 1,135 a year ago. Chicago receipts were 231 cars, three of contract grade. Seaboard clearances were placed at 440,000 bu. The world's visible increase was placed at 5.022,000 bu. Corn was active and strong, the shorts being buyers. The market at the opening showed some tendency to follow the wheat decline, but later, on reports of enormous export engagements, became firm again and advanced sharply. Shorts covered freely In both December and May. Export engage ments were reported at 170 loads. Cables were firm and higher. Receipts were &18 cars. December ranged from isO-ftC. to 21r(p Slic and closed lc higher, at 31c. Oats were higher and mainly steady, in fluenced by corn. Offerings were light, the demand good and prices ruled higher all day. Receipts were-223 cars. A bearish crop report had no influence. December ranged from 22c to 23Vic and closed c higher, at 23tfc Provlslor.9 were firm, and for that rea son were dull. There was a fair invest ment demand, but packers sold enough January product to neutralize Its effect. Liverpool prices were lower, and this had some influence. The market was helped a little, later In the day, by the advance in corn. At the close January pork was unchanged. at l.trrVi.

The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow: The wool market has been decidedly quieter during the past week, the volume of business transacted being the smallest recorded for several months. . This quieting down of the trade Is not unexpected. however, after such an excessive activity as had previously ruled. Most manufacturers probably concluded their heavy purchases to cover their light weights and have evidently made up their minds to wait a while before purchasing more wool. Some of the mills are taking Fraall lots to piece out with, and the demand, such as It is. has been quite general, not being confined to makers of any one class of goods. The situation, as far as prices are concerned, is unchanged. Prices are firm but no higher, and not likely to be wnue tne present quiet condition continues. The sales of the week in Boston amounted to 4.2SS.00O lbs domestic and 158,000 lbs forelim. mak ing & total of 4.416.CO0, against a total of 6,897,000 for tne previous week and a total of 1.190.000 lbs for the corresponding week last year.

While the national wheat crop is" considerably below the phenomenal yield of the previous two years, we can contemplate with abundant satisfaction the recordbreaking production of our distinctively American staple, the Indian corn crop. It has seemed as though we had failed in proper appreciation and respect for this grand cornerstone of our agricultural prosperity. Wheat is a world food and receives more general recognition In the world's markets than corn, but the latter Is convertible into so much that has commercial value that even If we cannot dispose of our surplus In Its raw ftate. It can be changed Into varioun products that find ready acceptance in all markets. The uses that can be made both of the grain and the stalk cover a very large ce sortment of coirmerclal commodities.

We know that corn' Is a food that is highly appreciated br man. In many forms it adds to the wholesomo and palatable equipment of the family table. One American poet was carried through a larger number of cantos by the Inspiration of "Hasty Pudding," and hoecake, Johnnyca'ke, dodger and pone, to ay nothing of Indian pudding and various other toothsome combinations, are household wordi. No doubt when converted into whisky corn has a high commercial value, but there we touch upon ethical grounds which we do not propose to discuss. New uses are being discovered for the whole product. About 40,ooo.ouo bushels of Indian corn are annually consumed in the manufacture of glucose, and the starch of commerce is made from the same material. The pith of the stair; can be compressed Into such small spaca without lot-Ins its resilient properties that It Is used in the construction of battleships to close up holes made by shot and shell. IMpes are made from the cobs and within a year or two several mills have been established to make paper from the outer coverinc. Hut It Is as a food for our domestic animals that the grain has its greatest value. Corn-fed" is the term used to designate the best that the meat market affords. In one set of experiments a bushel of wheat produced an average of 117 pounds of pork, while a bushel of corn produced 12.1 pounds. Cut. taking Into account the dlffer ence of weight of the two gTaina, their fattening quality Is about equal, though figuring upon the present prlcea of wheat and corn, it costs 11.01 to produce a hundred pounds of pork with the former and only 2.is5 with the latter. Experiments made with beef would doubtless show similar results in favor of corn, though It Is In the production of pork that Its value Is most conspicuous. We now have a dual condition that ought to equalize Itself. We have an excess of corn and a comparative scarcity, we are tohl. of meat animals, especially beef cattle. The corn of the country is not ral?jrj4 in one section and the rattle and hogs iri another, but both together or very near together. The proper use of this magnificent corn crop. then. is. Just at the present time, to turn It into beef and pork. The whisky can wait. It is the high price or the meat food of the country that ts likely to cause suffering. It the surplus corn means surplus beef we welcome it. If It means a wasteful use for fuel, as has sometimes been the case, the phenomenal figures mean nothing. It is entirely a question of adjustment. We have a more abundant food supply for our domestic anlnala than ever before. It would be a ccrloua state of affairs, therefore, shoull thtra anlmalj be tons htl ct :rci:ri rrt:t3.
