MONEY FAMINE ABROAD SALIGXT FEATURE OF THURSDAY'S FINANCIAL DBVELOP3IEXTS. The Trndlnjr in "Wall Street Wan Very Dull, anil Shares Were? Lower and Decidedly Weaker. .Money on call at New York yesterday was eteady at 2ft 7 per cent.; the last loan was 2 per cent.; prime mercantle raper, VAG per cent Sterling exchange was strong, with actual business in bankers' bills at 4.SS4ft4.S7 for demand and at $4.82fi4.8Ki for sixty days; posted rates were Ji.S3i and ?4.T; comrcerclal bills were $4.Slt.SlHSilver certlrtcates eold at 5S59c;bar silver was 58c; Mexican dollars were 47c. Bar silver In London sold at 264d per ounce. The New York stock market made a couple of feeble and futile efforts! to advance yesterday morning. The lethargy of the trading was an invitation to bear aggression and whn a determined leadership developed for that faction the professional element among the traders was quick to follow the lead. A single block of St. Paul of 6,500 enures was quickly followed by another o'f 4.000 shares, offered by brokers who are usually employed by the acknowledged bear leader. Selling generally all around the room was the sequence. The two large blocks of St. Paul were at 124i and the price had fallen to 1234 In a few minutes. The grangers, New York Central. Big Four and the leading high-priced specialties were the principal sufferers. Brooklyn Transit was under conspicuous pressure and dropped Jo 5. Puman made a brilliant advance of t points on rumors of the coming absorption of the leading competitor, which were denied later. This was an Isolated instance of positive strength. Louisville was the leader of the early abortive advance and was rather firm after having the advance wiped out. Otherwise the heaviness was quite uniform. The news of the" developments In South Africa had very little effect on the market. Call monev worked a shade easier and did not touch higher than 7 per cent. What with Inst Saturday's reeeiDts of gold from Kurone. other small accretions of ihe pre cious metal from other sources and the re laxed pressure by the subtreasury, added to the further contraction of loans which has been made, a more favorable showing is cxpectedfrom the New York banks in the Saturday statement. But the general out look In the money market is considered anything but favorable. The violent upward movement of on the pound for sterling exchange, both for actual rates and posted rates. Is regarded as an admonition that an casing of the money rate here Is likely to lead to a demand from London for gold. The weekly statement of the Bank of Hnglana disclosed a very slight increase of the proportion of reserve to liability, and the statement, for the same period, of the Bank of France, shows a loss of J2.300.000 in gold. while demand for credits has increased Its loans about $10,400,000. The sterling ex change rate at Paris dropped off an add! tlonal half centime. It is exceedingly sig nificant that the Bank of. England parted with some JE165.O0O in gold to-day for ship ment to Paris, which city has been looked to from all points as the available source lor relief for the need or gold. A financial upset in Italy had a disturbing effect in all the European money markets. The sharp upward movement here, not ojily in sterling exchange, but also in French exchange, sug jcests a coming pressure on this center. The bend market was moderately active and shows general declines. Total sales, par value. 31.6SO.00O. United States twos ad vanced 4 and the new fours, registered, de clined V in the bid price.

The more common remark on the wholesale streets Is that there Is no reason for complaint as to volume of trade, but one must sell a pile of goods to realize much profit, so close are the margins. This remark will not apply so much to the commission merchants, as a large per cent. of their goods are shipped them to sell on commissions, still commission merchants, the most enterprising at least, are buying a considerable quantity of goods, such as they handle. Prices continue unusually steady. Choice fruits are a little firmer, even grapes, which are seemingly In large supply, are firmer than a week ago. Some fine apples are coming into this market, and $3 to $3.50 per barrel will purchase a fine apple for winter keeping. The supply of Irish and sweet potatoes is large, and prices promise to rule low for some time to come. The local grain market moves along much in the rut of a month past. Receipts are moderate and demand is good at the following range of prices, as furnished by the secretary of the Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red, 69c; No. 3 red, 65368c: Octo ber, C9c: wagon wheat, 69c.

An absence of the war spirit that dominated the Liverpool market yesterday put wheat traders here In a bearish mood at the start. December opened Uc lower, at 72fi72"8C, and during the first half of the session sold off to 72&72Hc. The decline was marked by a good deal of Irregularity, however, as short sellers were very cautious and the scalpers seldom failed to accept VsC profit, if the market went that much in their favor, and then halted a second. Finally, when the market got down to put price, the bulls picked up a little courage and succeeded In forcing an upturn, December advancing to 73VbC Good outside buying and heavy clearances at the seaboard helped the advance. The improve ment was short lived, as the selling was of sufficient volume to meet all demands, and the price gradually slipped back again to 72!5sC, where it closed. A poor export demand accelerated the decline. Receipts here were 161 cars, three of which graded contract. Duluth received 234. Holiday at Min neapolis. Clearances at Atlantic seaboard equaled 893,000 bushels. Cash demand here was slow, while New York reported but 25 boatloads accepted there for export. Corn ruled active, but declined later, under heavy liquidation. Buying by elevator interests caused a temporary recovery, but, in the afternoon, the market sagged again, and was heavy at the close. New York reported 30 boatloads disposed of for export, while a local shipping house claimed 63 boatloads had been sold direct and other shipping business, reported from Chicago, amounted to 300,000 bushels. Receipts, 468 cars. December opened unchanged to lAc lower, at 31c to 31?8C, sold at 31c, advanced to 31bC and declined again to 31Hc at the close. Oats were fairly active and firm. An excellent cash demand and good country buying strengthened the market. Receipts were 234 cars. December opened unchanged, at 234c, declined to 234234c, advanced to 234c, and closed with sellers at 214j21c. Provisions opened dull and declined under free liquidation by packers and commission houses. There was a Ellght recovery from the bottom, in sympathy with the grain rally. Cash demand was fair.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 12, The Internatlonal Commercial Congress, composed of representatives of nearly every nation of the earth, - was formally opened to-day In the auditorium of the National Export Ex position. The congress, which will continue for two weeks, has for its specific object a discussion of trade matters with a view to the development of both foreign and do mestic commerce and with this purpose In view nearly 500 delegates representing boards of trade and commercial bodies in this country and as many more representing foreign countries and foreign commercial bodies were present when the opening cere monies began. President McKinley was represented by Assistant Secretary of State Hill, while members of the various foreign legations at Washington had come to the city in a special train over the Pennsylvania road. A feature of the session is to be a change In presiding officers every day. The official language of the congress is English, and all the deliberations and most of the papers will be In that tongue. Assistant Secretary of State Hill, the presiding officer of the congress, called the delegates to order, and welcomed them in the name of the United States. He said; "As the dignity of human labor is derived from the happiness It bestows upon mankind, the more widely Its benefits are distributed, the more noble It becomes. The patient toiler, whether in the field, the mine, the factory or the great agencies of transportation, can entertain no more worthy sentiment than that inspired by the thought that his thought and skill are destined to satisfy the needs of some fellow-being and bring a thrill of pleasure to some unknown recipient as a reward for his own activities. All too slowly, but none the less sure ly, after centuries of savage battle, men have learned that it is beter and nobler to feed and clothe and help another than to rob and plunder and destroy. The lessons of beneficent industry, which have lighted the fires of happy homes and built up peaceful communities In every civilized state have at last been learned by the nations also, and fleet ships, without fear of piracy, traverse the great international highways of the deep, bearing the fruits of the soil and the products of the loom and factory to distant peoples. "Commerce spreads the white wings of peaceful sails upon the barren sea. and the joy of mutual exchange and reciprocal service springs up in the hearts of men. The great ocean which divided them during the long morningsaleep of Intelligence now binds them in closest intercourse and the word 'stranger, once synonymous with enemy, has become rilled with potentialities of friendship." "The convocation of the International congress in this city at this time is a significant token of the world's progress. It reassures us that the political independence of nations which is ewential to their existence and well-being is not inconsistent with their social and economic interdependence. It promises hope that the asperities of commercial competition may be tempered by the amenities of generous and intelligent ' co-operation. It Indicates a disposition on the part of all parties of the civilized world to secure the widest possible diffusion of the blessings arising from the achievements of the prolific century in which we live. If the problem of economic distribution could be rightly solved there would not exist upon the surface of the earth a single human being capable of rendering a social service whose legitimate needs could not be satisfied. "It is a mark of high honor to the government of the United States, as well as to the city and corporation whose invitation has been extended through Its legation, that delegates from nearly every commercial nation of the globe, and, that representatives from over 2tX chambers of commerce have conferred upon this congress the distinction of their presence. "The President of the United States has great pleasure in this gratifying evidence of interest In the International Commercial Congress now assembled, and has expressed his deside that It may prove a bond of closer union between this and all the foreign countries represented. I have the honor to convey to all the foreign delegates and representatives who have distinguished this conference by their participation the most cordial welcome of the government of the United States. May this reunion lay the foundation of lasting friendship and prove a permanent aid and inspiration to the commerce of the world." Mayor Ashbrldge welcomed the delegates on behalf of the city, after which Charles H. Cramp, president of the American Museum, declared the congress ready for business. Some was taken up in the adoption of resolutions for the congress and other mat tera of routine tfnrll.

Anti-Trust, Now at the Stockyards. Interstate Indlanarolls. Oct. EL I see th Live Stock Journal cf the eld yaid has een f.t to say that I lied by saying that 50 per cent, of all the hops coming to Indianapolis were shlpiJ out, while they amlt that 47 per cent, were shlped out. wnicn is noi a iig lie for a man who did not have the accurate figures before him. This Is the first time they have got anything on us that was not accurate, and one who can rue within 3 per cent, of the shipments is a good gueser. They also say that 1 admitted tbe'.r market was to i cem mxne than our market on Oct. . 1 did say it wa a, fraudulent market to fool the peoi4 tor the pur pose of getting them la here and then take then off. Yesterday, when they had a big run. they idmlt bT their own report that they took th market off 74 to 10 cents when Chicago and all other markets In the country were eteady. andt our market was- strong. 1 want to ask the Liv Stock Journal If these statements are not racts. Particularly I want to ak the shippers who bai fctock en their market yesterday, that was bought on their high quotations of a week before, which was a fraud, and then had to sell them on tneir low market of yesterday. Have they treated the country shipper right Ly inducing him to buy on the high market, and get him In here and take them off, when all other markets In the country were tieady? They ay they are buying some hogs over there now with dock. I want to ata them why they are buying them with a dock now. and why they did not io so heretofore. It is a very simple shipper but what knows the reo why they are doing It now. TUey are cuiir. them with a dock, following the way we da business. We said. "You can fool all the people part of the time, and part of the people all th time, but you cannot fool all the people all tb time." But we admit there are people who wan! to be fooled. We will guarantee an honest mar ket here relative to other markets, and we will promise that this market will not be taken ots i to 10 cents cn a big run of $,0X to 6.000 receipts, like their market was yesterday. We will tak . that many any day and the market will r steady, if all other markets are eteady. W handled 3C0.OOO hogs last year In the old yards. and had to receive them all ourselves. In thesa yards we have a number of other commission men who are selling ana & number or ruyer. In fact, all the buyers who are buying at the ell yards are buying here with the exception of a few who are tied up over there and cannot gee away. There is a demand here that will take 10,0ft hogs any day and 60 to 60 cars or export cattle, and the demand for butcher cattle Is equal to anybody s. You see what I jredictea, that whenever they get a run they take them eff like they did yesterday, and they win do it every: time. Yours; R, R. SHIEL & CO.. Per Ehiei.
