Jllver certificates were WtfiWic; bar silver, C4l4c; Mexican dollars, 2)Vsc. At London silver bars sold at 23 13-1 kl an ouneef The New York stock market became still further Involved In apathy and Indifference yesterday. Rualness was strictly In the hands of professional traders, and they did not push their transactions In a very energetic manner. Tho rally which developed late Tuesday, In eympatny with the sudden upward movement in Southern Pacific, retained some force- in the morning, witn the evidence of continued buying In that stock. The opening level of prices was hither than Tuesday night, and there was some further advance, bufr when it became evident that the buying orders In Southern Pacific had been filled the market fell Into a sort of lethargy. The resulting tendency to "sag developed very gradually until near the close, when the professional bears took courage and offered prices down. The experiment proved that buying orders were very scarce for a considerable range below the market, and some sharp declines were established before meeting, any demand. As a result the earlier gains were completely wiped out and the market closed below Tuesday night all aiound. The weakness was most marked In the high-priced Industrials, the local traction stocks and the steel stocks. - In the railroads, the Pacific were conspicuous on the decline, Northern Pacific falling almost a point below Tuesday night, while In Southern raclflc. Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific the decline from the beat was a point. The conditions aSecting the market were the same as Tuesday, namely, a disinclination to enter further on speculation until alter the election. The decline In Tennessee Coal was coincident with retorts of dUaatlsfactlon vlth the management. The money market continued quiet and easy, but It is not Improbable ttat future prospect hae a repressive tendency upon speculation. Receipts of Jl.l00.0w In geld from Lurup yesterday and subtreasury payments on account of Klondike gold wre contributing cau.s to the ease of the market. The olclal report of subtreasury operations indicates that tue banks have Raln.d from that Institution since Frl. lay J1.154.iki. Lut it is to be remembered that the banks drew over the counter at the suUn-asury on h'rUay last some $1.6uO,o0 on account of Austra. Ian fold so as to figure in last week's bank statement, thus accounting for the unexpected Increase in the cash reatrves on Saturday. While this transaction has already figured in last Saturday's ban statement. It Is included in tte statement of the suMreasury oieratl'.n3, and must bo allowed for In estimating next Saturday's bank statement from the subtreasury ttgures. Discounts both In London and in LJsriin advanced aharply. The rise was due partly to tbo monthly settlements, but In London it is evident that the Pank of England's t-aort to stiffen the oprrn market rates for mney is meeting with success, and sterling ratfes both here and In Lodon ani 2'arls ro in repone to-lay.

In the Aggregate the Trade of Oetober Ilnsi Been Satlsfaetory. In summing up the business of October on The wholesale streets and on Commission row It is no exaggeration to say that, as a whole. It was nulte satisfactory In Its volume, and that had trade held up the last week as well as In the first three weeks it would have been as good an October business as any on record. But the last week the bottom seemed to drop out, weather conditions being partly responsible, as Is the near approach of the presidential election. Prior to the last week of the month the campaign seemed to interfere but little with bmi? rea. Prices, as a rule, were firm and steady, although in nearly all lines of trade goods sold on close margins. Slight advances In some lines of dry goods, drugs and confectlonaries were established. The only article which fluctuated to an extent to cause comment was linseed oil. Provisions, staple groceries, iron and steel al! ruled firm and steady through the entire month, much to the surprise of some merchants who had looked for advances. On Commission row the eupply of fruits and vegetables was in excess of the demand, but choice stock brought fairly satisfactory prices. The local grain market the last half of the month was the most active in any October In many years, receipts being large and prices well maintained, the month closing with track bids firm at the following range, as furnished by the secretary of uie Board of Trade: Wheat No. 2 red, 74c; No. 2 red, on milling freight, 74c; No. 3 red, 70i72c; wagon wheat, 74c.

UPTON'S PORK CORNER
TOOK A THIIID OF A MILLION OIT OF THE SHORT BEARS. October $20 n Darrel nt the Clont Continued Strenerth of Urnlna Provision Futures Lower. CHICAGO, Oct. 31. The culmination of the October pork corner, controlled by Sir Thomas Upton, came to-day, when pork for delivorv this month advanced $3. rising on less than a doren trades from $17. yesterday's closing price. to $20 at the clofe to-day. The buying was by short, who had held off till the laut moment. It was eald that Sir Thomas could have made the rrlce $100 as well a $20, but he declared he had no Intention of "squeeilng" anybody. As a result of his deal here Lipton Is believed to have made $3öO.CO0. There were only 35,000 brls of pork that could be delivered, and the Englishman owned them all, as well 9 twice that number bought from people who did not have a barrel they could deliver when the tlmo came. When the price reached $16, some time ago, the majority of the shorts thought It time to buy some of the perk they had contracted to deliver at approximately $11 per brl during Oc tober. Numerous private settlements are sail to have been made, eo that, while bearish spec ulators in pork have received some painful financial injuries, the wounds have not been mortal. A private settlement of 1,000 brls wa made near the end of the session, Llpton's representative allowing a belated short to take that amount at $13 rer brl, assuring the buyer that at the close the price would be $20. That he knew whereof he spoke was made plain to everybody later, for as the closing hell sounded Samuel Wolf was shouting bids of $20. Wheat was strong and active to-day on Argentine news and higher cables, December closing lHtlUe over yesterday. Corn closed and oats He higher for December delivery. January provisions at the close were Sc lower. Throughout the session In the wheat pit speculative eyes were glued on the Argentine advices. Numerous reports confirmatory of previous ones were received, placing the damage to the Argentine crop at from 40 to 60 per cent. An advance of Did al Liverpool was also crellted to the stories cent out from the other sice of the equator. In many quarters there was an Inclination to consider the damage reports exaggerated. December opened SiHc higher at 7474;c, and on a good general demand, shorts leading, advanced sharply to 74Tc. At thl point profit-taking came, causing a reaction to 74(Si4sc, but as the offerings were readily absorbed a further rally ensued. December Jumped to 7473c and closed lHtflUc higher at 744 74c. New York reiorted 35 loads taken for export. Clearances at the seaboard were equal. . In wheat and flour, to 25.000 bu. Primary re ceipts were SILOOO'bu, compared witn l.Voo.ow bu last year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 447 cars, against 473 last week and ES9 a year ago. Local receipts were 109 cars, six of contract grade. Corn was quiet but firm, influenced by wet weather West, the receipts, 207 cars, and the w heat strength. An advance at Liverpool was also encouraging to holders, and of a correspondir.gly discouraging nature viewed from the standpoint of the short interests. There was a fair seaboard demand and clearances were 511.000 bu. December sold between 24c and S3Hc, and closed Mc up at 33c. Oats were quiet, but prices held steady because wheat and corn exhibited a stiff-backed attitude. Changing November for later deliveries formed the main business of floor traders. Recetpts were t90 cars. December sold between 21Tic and 22!$c, with the close at 22o. The trade in provisions was light and feeling ersier on liberal hog receipts and lower price at the yards. January pork sold between $11.174 and $11.23 and closed 5c down at $11.20; January lard between $6. and JG.67Vi. closing 5c lower at $6.63. and January ribs between $6.92! and $6.95, with the close 5c depressed at $6.92'.

' To the Edit jr of the Inilanapoli Journal: In the Weekly State Sentinel, which it the Democratic organ for Indiana, dated Oct. 21, wore tho following headlines: "Dunkard Gives Reasons for Voting for Ilryan," which 1 followed by forty-eight reasons why Americans, ostensibly Dunkords, should vote lor Bryan nd not for McKinley. The author Is given as D. C Moomaw, of Roanoke county. Virginia, and to sivp what he pays influence and prestige with the Dunkards It is claimed that he la a son of Hev. 11. F. Moomaw, who is known nnd revered by the Dunkard In every State where they have achurch organization. From the tone and sentiment of hia reasons it Is ev?deni to all who are familiar with tho doctrines and tenets of the Dur.kan! faith that tho paid D. C. Moo. maw is no Dunkard. Having ten n member of the Dunkard church fr more than a third of u century, I think 1 understand the political Matus of Its members, and I am porry to we thrlr fidelity and political fealty questioned In the iolltlcal newspapers. Or.c of the cardinal principles of th Dunkard chureh was their opiosltlon to human slavery, and they wiuld not allow p.ny of thdr memlers to own or have uny interest in distilleries. The menilH-is w-ra admonished to not even sell jrtln to dltlllers. A largo preponderance of the Dun kards? nre ltepublleatis. and while they do riot us u rt'.Ie take an aetlve part in politics yet they are reliable whtn the day of election comes around, a fact that will tie demonstrated on next Tuesday, and there will be r.o uncertainty about ho they will mark their tickets, notwithstanding the deception and misrexiresentatlons Injected Into the forty-eight reason of this would-be Dunkard.
