Ornlna ’ and Provision*—Speculative Stocks—Brokere* Goaslp—Trade Notes and Comments Loeal Jobbing Prices.

The wheat market to-day gave some show of strength, the best explanation of which was the weakness of yesterday. The receipts were large, but their influence was Id a measure offset by exports of 683,000 bushels. There appears to be good support around 60c, and on. advances above that ther^ seems to be wheat for •ale. Indications do not point to material declines or advances at present. It is rather a scalping market with traders chary about remaining long on either side of the deal. Within the first half hour prices advanced 1c from yesterday's close, and from that until the close to-day the market was held steady, with wheat for sale on any show of further advance. The exports of com were 410,000 bushels, and the estimates for Wednesday were for smaller receipts. There was also some lowering of lake freights,and helped further by firmness in wheat, there was a stronger tone to prices, most noticeable in the near-by months and cash. The advance was from 14c to. V»e, not enough to create alarm, but of Interest upon the principle that one should be thankful for even small favors. Provisions held moderately firm around yesterday’s advance, but hesitated about going higher. Local Boot and Shoe Jobbers, The boot and shoe trade for the past eight months haa been very satisfactory to Jobbers. The advance in leather has caused an advance in the selling prices of boots and shoes, and It is a wellknown fact that an upward market makes a brisk trade. In this line the Improved demand came early, perhaps to the detriment of later business, but jobbers are hopeful that on the opening of winter weather the sorting up will be lively. During the period of trade depression shoes reached too low a price. The effort " w^s continually to produce something at a low figure, and the goods suffered In qualify. The" reaction has reached the wearer, and he now demands something better.^ This changed state of affairs is hailed with delight by manufacturer, Jobber and retailer. A few years ago, except in the farming districts, boots were not handled. Thera has recently been an Improved demand for boots, although It is for lighter w lights than formerly. Few of the oldfashioned stoga kip boots are handled, but there is a steady demand from Illinois and parts of Indiana for a boot tor use on the farm. In towns, especially where there are sidewalks, the men stick to shoes. _ . Until a few years ago the boot and shoe tiade of Indianapolis was largely with the farming districts. With the discoveir of natural gas, the development of the country drew in workmen from larger places, who demanded better and more finished grades of shoes. In consequence, this city now shows Jobblng'-houses carrying stocks covering as high grade* as are carried in the largest markets, . Aw Easier Money Market. New York Financial Chronicle, The somewhat easier money market following the activity of last week some /seem to interpret by saying that the interior movement of currency has almost ^stopped and is about at its end for the season. There is nothing at all i in this •Tatement except that there wad in the early part of the current week a natural filling off in the currency outflow following the large movement the two previous weeks. The greater ease in money is a wholly temporary affair, and was fully forecast by the facts we gave last week; It has been caused In part by the return to the mark«t of money withdrawn the close :f September for divers Interest payments duo the first of the current month, but is chiefly a natural result of the five and one-half million'dollars of Governmerit interest distrfbutsd on the first day of October, a large part of which haa thl* week gone into the banks. As to tne firmer tone in foreign exchange it is accounted for In part by our easier money market, but more largely by the fluctuations In cotton futures, Which have tended to check purchases on foreign account and consequently the making of fbllls; first there was a rapid rise last week, continuing into the first part of this week, with a decline later,'ending in a further material loss on Thursday when the Agricultural Department report appeared. Added to this diminished ply of cotton bills, the reported break •n the Kaffir mining stocks at Paris and London and rumors of European complications growing out of the situation in Turkey have had some influence. But all these are but passing incidents likely to be fellowed within a week or two by another drop in exchange. Between Opposing Force*. Hide and Leatbar Review. The country hide market 1* hejd between opposing forces—oq 1 the one hand, tanners are cutting leather prices to effect sales, and neglecting the hide market; but, on the other hand, the small stocks of hides, and the difficulty of obtaining new supplies at county points, prompts dealers to hold hide values firm. It would be idle to assume that there is no depression and uneasiness in the_countty market. The present conditions are unprecedented. Dealers and tanners alike realise that the business Is speculative and uncertain. Some persons are of the opinion that the leather market has permanently gone to pieces, while others are just as resolute bulls as everThey believe that natural conditions this year favor the bull side, and in the. end will prevail. To Stop Price Cutting* The negotiations that have been going on for several months between the wholesale grocers in the West, looking toward the abatement of cutting tr refined sugar uricea, have iea.ilted in a request that, the American Sugar Refining Company put into effect in Western cities the same selling plan that Is now in kffect east of Chicago. This msana that uj on the declaration by a wholesale grocer that he has maintained the list prices, he is allowed a reoate of S-16 of a cent per pound..This is not taken off the bill b? goods, os is the New York custom, but will be paid to the grocers at regular Itated intervals. The object of the ihango is Claimed to be the abatement of l»rtce cutting. The Big Cora Crdfe* The Indioaliona point to a corn crop but little lees than £.400,000,000 bushels, debidedly the largest crop ever raised, and practically double the short ylaM of last year, when the product was only a Mttle over 1,200,000,000 bushels. The contrast with the previous year for some of the States, as will be seen, is very noteworthy. Iowa showing a crop of 268,000,000 bushels, against only 81.000,000 bushels; Illinois. m,m,m against 109,000,000; Kansas. ir.OM.OOl). against 41,000.000; Missouri, 13.000.000. against 116.00o.000, and Nebraska. 188,000,000, against 13.000,00* The W»r 1 d*a Gold Yield. The Indications are that the gold yield far this year will reach fully 8900,000,000. According to the statements of the United States mint the countries expected to show the greatest increases are: The United States, from 881,600.000 to 846,000,100; South Africa, from $S3,696,8» to 846,100.000; Australia, from 841,780,IXX). to 143.00*000; Russia, from 837.646,000, to 839.00*00* Small Increases are also promised in Mexico and other gold-producing districts of £he world, A Big Dessau<1 Eos Cana Chicago Bulletla.

tered all day.

Bulls on St. Paul figured on enormous increases in earnings for the second week in October, and believed this would keep the price steady, as it did not promote an advance. * Kennett H. sold B. & Q., giving rise to rumors that Cammack was again willing to be a little short of that stock.’ The Burlington tonnage is making people connected with the property more confident than heretofore in regard to the stock.

“Old 44 is sulking again,"' said a New Monon man this morning as he stood in the Union Station and looked at his watch. “Old 44” is the engine that hauls the New Monon train due here at 3:25 o’clock In the morning. When the man looked at his watch the train was half an hour late and he had ascertained that there had been no accident on the road. “That engine takes spells,” he cont'nued, “and won’t do a thing. She is in perfectoorder. one of the fastest on the road, and when she has not the sulks can make a train fly over the rails. I wager she won’t make steam and is losing time just to be mean. When she takes a tantrum no one can do a thing with her.” The train pulled into the stations’at 5-49 o’clock, and the engineer was asked the trouble. “This ugly devil had another of her spells,” he exclaimed. “She would linger in the valleys and go to sleep on the hills, and I could do nothing with her. There is not a thing the matter, except «he is ugly.” Trains 6 and 12 on the Vandalia were also three hours late on account of a freight wreck near Terre Haute. Two freight trains came together and smashed things up. No one was hurt and the damage will not be great. The trains are now running on time. Changes In Time Cards. The new time-card on the Pennsylvania will result in train 18 being taken off between Chicago and Logansport. Train 20 will haul the Louisville cars to Logansport. There they will be hitched to the regular Louisville, No. 18, and will be hauled to Louisville via Indianapolis. This train wjll be scheduled fifty-five miles an hour, and will arrive an hour later than at present. No. 1, on the Indianapolis division, that has been running for many years, will also be abandoned. This is the train due here at 11:10 o'clock in the morning. No. 5 will be doubled up and do the work of the abandoned train, arriving in this city at 8 o’clock a. m. The Big Four will also make a change in the time of its Louisville coach from this city.

The Butler College board of directors met yesterday at the college In Irvington. Addison Ct Harris was elected a member of the board to take the (Aace of Dr. J. T. Strong, of Plainfield, who recently died. Resolutions of respect tar the memory and services of the deceased member were passed. His successor is an alumnus of the college, having been graduated in 1862. The board received from Messrs. Atwater and Clifford in person a communication from the Indian* Missionary Society of . the Christian church to the effect that D. R. Lucae had been asked by the society to raise under its auspices $100,000 additional endowment for the college. The society acked the board to concur In the appointment. The board authorized the proposed subscriptions under the charter. President Butler has proposed that If the Missionary Society and the Christian church wanted a large voice In the management of the college they copld obtain it by subscribing for capital stock, as is now proposed. All of the stock now out represents money donated to the college. The bulk of this came from the Ovid Butler estate, and is voted in a block, by the terms of the will. If the Missionary Society should raise iba $100,000, and tt should be voted: in a block, it would be a larger amount than 1* held by any other single interest. Class Spirit At Butler.
