All other articles handled by tho druggists rulo llrm In tone and they report business as above, the average volume. Flour is taking on a stronger tone. Domestic consumption is reported large and exporters are thought to be staying out of the market. Corn meal and rolled oats in fact all cereal products are meeting with large consumption and are in strong position at the present high prices. Coffees and sugars are selling freely at unchanged quotations. Canned good are moving slowly, uith a general upward tendency of the market, the strti:th of th situation being entirely one of the general conditions. Tropical fruits are moving freely, but with no price changes. Bananas and grapes are in Rood demand and dates ami lig are having b tter sab' every day and are becoming good property.

TRANSCONTINENTAL LINES

tiii:v LKAD IX A VEKV MAIIKKD niLl, 3IOVKMEXT. It Dor Xot Extend Very Far, However, and Much of the Lint Is SlukIL 3Ionetu ry Conditions. NEW YORK. Oct. ll.-Great speculative activity continued in the stock market today, but it was centered to a large extent in the transcontinental stocks, led by St. Paul, which rose Si points over last night in the late dealing and clo?ed 1 point below the best. The activity of to-day's market was largely due to the crop of rumors revived by yesterday's reports of the proposed plan for consolidating the control of Northern Pacific, Great Northern and Burlington into one proprietary company. As a matter of fact, the official disclaimers of the accuracy of the reports and the prompt relapse in the prices of Great Northern preferred and Northern Pacific preferred had a somewhat chilling effect on speculative sentiment. Tho general accord of the current rumors in allowing that the stock of Northern Pacific itself was not yet provided for in the plan, the alleged provision for the retirement of Northern Pacific preferred, through which tho control by the Ilarriman interests Is exerted, and the assertion by representatives of the Ilarriman interests that that syndicate was not a participant in the plan, seemed to open up a vista of renewed contention. As the day progressed there was a revival of old rumors that Union Pacific was to acquire St. Paul in exchange for new bonds. In the presence of these pleasant old associations speculative enthusiasm seemed to take fire. The buying of St. Paul was quite in the old prodigal fashion of outlay, and Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and Atchison were conspicuous followers. The extreme advance in Union racifio was 2? and in Southern Pacific 2Vi. Rock Island was up 4 points at one time on light dealings. Missouri Pacific by no means kept paca with tha other transcontinental railroads, and the Gould stocks as a whole were laggards. The Southwesterns were affected by poor earnings for the first week in October. Here and there In the railroad list and the prominent industrials there were advances of a point or over, but the activity and strength of the market were by no means general or well distributed. The coalers and the so-called Morgan stocks, including the United States steel stockä, seemed to be little affected and moved narrowly. Expectation of a good bank statement was general, founded more on the tone of the money market than on actual information, and the showing will depend on the loan item, changes in which are necessarily obscure. The feeling is growing that present resources of the banks are likely to prove sufficient to meet the further requirements of the interior for currency. The movement by express this week fell oft over $3,000,(.hjO from that of last week. This feeling was an influence on the strength of the market. The railroad bond market was active and showed an increasing strength. Total sales at par value were $3.540,000. United States fives, coupon, advanced U per cent, on the last call.

Hull Mnrfcet Fasler Moneiury Situation. Meyer & Riser's Telegram. NEW YORK, Oct. 11. Under the lcadershipof St. Paul, which was extremely stron? and active, closing over 10 points above the lowest price of yesterday, the whole market had a sharp advance. In spite of Mr. Hill's denial the street Is firmly convinced that some important developments in regard to the Northwestern Railroad situation are pending, and this confidence was further strengthened to-day, more by the character of buying of St. Paul than it3 activity. The buying was through some of the best houses in the street, and led to the conclusion that all interests were working harmoniously. There was some realizing during the first fifteen minutes, but this was soon offset by the heavy purchases made through certain prominent commission houses. Apart from St. Paul, Union l'acitic, Atchison and Southern Pacific showed notable strength. The traders at first were inclined to sell Atchison owing to the unfavorable nature of the government crop report, but they soon realized that their sales were taken by good people, and when they changed their position and started to cover, the stock advanced easily. Amalgamated Copper, which was strong at the opening, became rathej' heavy and dull during the afternoon on what looked like liquidation. Any anxiety over the money situation has practically disappeared. Lenders are willing to make time loans rather freely, whereas for the last month time loans were scarce. The reason for the changed situation is to some extent that the shipments of currency are now showing a falling off. NorthiTeBtern Merger Seems Assured. Granger Farwell & Co.'s Telegram. NEW YORK, Oct. U. The market today on very large transactions was buoyant and closed at very near the best prices of the day. There was an exceptional advantage of nearly 9 points in St. Paul, In which there was supposed to bo very large buying by Standard Oil Interests. Union Paciflc, Rock Island and Southern Pacific wera next in Importance and in the extent of their advance. Money was somewhat easier and a favorable bank statement was predicted. There was no definite news of importance, but there were various rumors of large combinations and consolidations. The steel stocks were conspicuously quiet and showed some small changes for the day. The short interest In the market was very largely reduced, and it Is an open question whether the advance of the past two days has not been too rapid. Information is at hand from what Is regarded as very reliable authority that the Northern-Union Paciflc deal is eure to go through now, unless something unforeseen occurs; that St. Paul will go into the deal at 2U0, Union Pacific at 120 and Northern Pacific at 123, both Northern Pacific preferred and Great Northern preferred to be retired. DIED IN Tim HARNESS. Dramatic Phase of the Death of Jere 31. Wilson. Washington Star. Perhaps the most dramatic moment of all the circumstances about the recent death of Mr. Jcro M. Wilson, who died in tho midst of tho activities of a busy life, occurred in connection with his duties as president of the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company. He had been occupied the day before his death in preparing some matters that were to come before the meeting of the board of directors, which was to be held tho next day. Early that morning a telephone message was received at the office of the company from Mr. Wilson stating that he had been sick during the night, and that he did not feel strong enough to attend the merging. When the other members of the board reached the office and learned of the message from the president it was decided to go to tho rooms of Mr. Wilson and hold the meeting thre. This was accordingly done, and after a session of about filteen minutes the board adjourned to meet again in the office of the company. The members went at once to the office and resumed the meeting, but before it was concluded and it did not last three-quarters of an hour a message was received announcing the death of the man from whom they had just parted. The shock was a severe one to all, and before the board finally adjourned appropriate resolutions were adopted. In this way is illustrated graphically the suddenness of the event. Before the meeting over which Mr. Wilson presided had adjourned action was taken relative to his death. Senator lleverlilse's Hxniiiple. Chicago Post. Senator Iieveridc's example is one to be commended and followed. Too many of our lawmakers and treaty-makers are ignorant of world politics and other forces that underlie international diplomacy. "The period of exolusiveness is past." and for the happy carelessness of former days there is no further excuse. Our statesmen must take thtir duties more seriously, must fit and eiuip themselves fur the intelligent discharge uf them. They "Will Il Ilrncil. Philadelphia Record. Persons who believed that Col.

CORN IS MOVING UPWARD

SMALL IMPROVEMENT IN CONDITION IS TIIC caisi:. Sympathetic Effect Seen In Wheat, but Oats Are Still DepressedProvisions Make Small Cains. CHICAGO, Oct. 11. The government report of a slightly improved condition of the corn crop was a decidedly bullish factor in an otherwise bearish market to-day, affecting wheat as much as it did corn. December corn closed higher, wheat ?c advanced and oats a shade depressed. Provisions closed from 5c to 124c higher. Considerable activity immediately followed the opening of the corn pw induced largely by the disappointment among the bear clique, who expected a decided advance in the official crop report. At the close yesterday this advatice was predicted as at least 5 points, and bears had sold freely in consequence. When, however, October's condition was reported at but 51.2, as compared with September's 5L7, quick covering was the result. December opened ?;ft?;c higher at ICjjIc, partly on higher cables. Several prominent longs began profit-taking at this early advance, and December wavered for & time under the pressure and sold off to CC'c This early loss was soon regained, however, and prices rapidly rose to 57,.sc. At the close December lost somewhat on continued liquidation, but closed firm, Jc higher, at SGTic. Receipts wer3 230 cars. Wheat ruled fairly activo and higher, December opening U"0lic higher on improved cables at CQM'äWkC. Statistics, if anything, were bearish. Receipts were still very liberal, though falling off somewhat in the Southv.est. Clearances were small and the export demand was sluggish. In spite of those influences wheat gained material strength, principally from the corn report, and rose steadily throughout the session, on covering by shorts. There was some outside demand, which also helped, and December sold to TG'ic. easing off a triile and closing strong. higher, at 70J. Local receipts were 167 cars, one of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported MG cars, making a total for the three points of 1.013 cars, against 1,033 last week and 704 a year ago. Primary receipts were 1,203.000 bu, compared with last year's 533,000. Seaboard clearances. In wheat and flour, were LH8.U00 bu. Argentine shipments for the week wer 20e,0JO bu, against D44.CM) the corresponding week a year ago. The seaboard reported 12 loads taken for export. Oats were only moderately active early in sympathy with the Improvement In trade in the other grains, falling off to a dull and narrow market later in the day. There was some strength at the opening, following corn, but this met with free offerings by the outside, and the moderate country movement continued easing the market. December sold between 23Jso and SSHSöUc, and closed a shade lower at SGUSSic. Receipts were 1S7 cars. An easy market In provisions at the opening resulted from a renewed selling for the local and outside account. Prices sagged rapidly for a time, in spite of a strong hog mat ice t, but on a development of a considerable 10C3 demand Januarj' products reacted and held steady. Pork closed 12c advanced at $15.05, lard "io up at $8.i7l2. and ribs 5c higher at J7.iö. Leading futures ranged as follows: Article. Open- liiRh- Low- ClO'"Wheat In. et. t,t. inj.

Cattle Receipts, 1,700; fhipments, ZOO. Th receipt of cattle thus far this weekT show an increase: of nearly 0.0 over the same time last week ami 3,100 ov r the corresponding time a 3'tar ago. The receipts to-day were comparatively liberal, showing1 an increase of about TOO over the same time last week and 1,200 over a year ago. As usual for some time past a very larsa proportion of the arrivals were undesirable cattle that is, they were hardly fat enough to meet the re.quirements of butchers and the quality was not sucli as to attract the attention of feeders. The market opened with mo?t regular buyer? in the field, but there was rather an indifferent demand from all sources, and early it was evident that there would be a dull trade. It Is possibly that there was more discrimination against the better class of stock than heretofore this week and there were very few Instances that salesmen believed they got steady prices. The decline was uneven, but generally considered at least 10c to 15c on Rood steck and as much as 25c on others. Hales included cattle averaging 1.3j0 to 1.3CÖ pounds at SZ.Lh .There were no heifers nporttd above Si, and the top for cows was also $1, but there were no fancy female cattle hero.
