Ek market RAPE STRONG Declines Start Imttely After Opening. >BK. Oct. 22—The gtock market presented almost the same features to the first fifteen minute*’ trading today that ot yesterday's trading, oulet strength being shown and many stocks making advance*i after the opening, when business fell oft materially, and the market resumed a waiting character. Steel common rose % to 88% and Baldwin % to 113%. St. Ifoul* Southwestern shares were again prominent, tho common moving op % to 39% and the preferred % to 49%. Mexican Petroleum moved up % to 189%. Tinted Fruit gained 1% to 212. After the first fifteen minutes a selling movement started, causing general declines from the Initial range. The market was Irregular during the forenoon, most of the leading issues fluctuating within a narrow range. Steel common, after an easly advance t° ‘* ro l ) P ed t 0 87% and then rallied Baldwin yielded 1 point to 112%, followed by a rally to 113%, and then another drop to 113. Stocks continued to advance early in the afternoon. Steel common advanced to SB%, the statement of Judge Gary that BWea would have to recede being in line With the belief of most traders, who have hota dealing with that Idea in mind. Pan-American went to 89%, up %, and Baldwin Locomotive to 114. up %. Closing prices were: United States Stool Bs, off %: Baldwin Locomotive 114, np %; Pan-American 89%, op %; Canadian Pacific 125%, up %; Southern J|ielfie 95%, off %; Studebaker 58%, UD 1%; Mexican Petroleum 191%, up 2%; Anaconda 50%, up %; Reading 96%, np %; United Fruit 217%, up 6%. (By Thomson & McKinnon) —Oct. 22 The announcement that the head of the steel corporation was to deliver a speech was sufficient to center the attention of all on the steel shares, because Judge Gary Is not only a spokesauthority, but what he says Is usually of value to the business Interests of the country. Wbat he had to say was calculated to encourage business, bnt be also made plain the fact that the price of ateel and iron must be revised downward, and each Individual is at liberty to construe this statement in the light of past exreriences, as to the effect that it will ave on the steel and iron business. When an Inflated price once gives way, business unsettlement follows. Buyers as a rule withhold orders In anticipation of further price reductions. immediately preceding the delivery of this speech there was some selling of stocks, hut the Impression on prices was not great, and the market acted a good deal as it has on each day recently. A stubborn resistance to selling pressure, though it must be confessed that the rallies have also been moderate In extent and followed as a rule by dullness. If the stock market Is to represent trade activities then we have nothing to brag about. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE. NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—Twenty Industrial .61 per cent.

In the Cotton Markets

[email protected] 13.35013.40 13.26012.35 There was an apparent halt in the slump on the hog market today, when hog prices held about steady to 25c lower, and would probably have held firm had It not been lor the slightly poorer grade of hogß that were thrown on the market. Buying was of a general nature, with the eastern shippers and local packers buying their usual quotas. There was a somewhat better sentiment to the market. There was better trading on the late market of Thursday and the large re celpts of holdovers that was anticipated did not materialise. Receipts for the day approximated 10,000 fresh hogs, with less than 500 left over, and Indications were that most of the hogs on the market would be sold before the close of the trading. One of the features of the market was the lack of good heavy hogs. According to reports, there were but a very few loads of good heavy hogs among the reifowever, there was a considerable number of good medium, mixed and light hogs on the market. Good heavies, the few that were on the market, brought tbe top of the day, $13.75. Mixed, mediums and lights brought sl3 25® 13.35, with a few at $13.40, and a still smaller number at $13.50. The bulk of sales for the day ran close to $13,23013.85. Roughs wore about steady at $13.50 and down, and pigs slightly off at and down. Trading was fair on the cattle market. Prices held about steady generally, but extra good cattle were stronger. Poor and common grades ceuld hardly be moved at any price. PractlcalK fill the butchers and pack ers were in the market, buying generally all grades. The demand for feeders was about the same ns has prevailed for the past week. Receipts were light at approximately 700, with but little stale stuff. The yards are fairly clean. Calves were down slOl 50. with fairly heavy receipts of only medium calves and a poor sentiment on the market. The market opened with a little better spirit than was sbown after the first half hour of trading. There were approximately 600 calve 4 ors the market. Sheep and lambs were again about steady, with sheep at $404.50 and lambs with the bulk of good sheen at $10010.50 and some bringing $10.75. Only a few brought the top. There were 500 sheep and lambs on the market. HOGS.

'WHEAT GETS OVERJS2 MARK Heavy Demands Cause Grains to Make Gains. CHICAGO, Oct. 22.—Wheat got above the $2 mark again today In the trading on the Chicago Board of Trade. Heavy demand caused an increase of from five to six cents in wheat quotations. Corn and other grains were higher In sympathy, with wheat and provisions also showing some gains. itectqnter wheat was off 1% at the opening, $1.96%, but closed up o%c. March wheat opened up % at $1.90 and showed a gain of an additional quarter at the close. December corn was up %e at the opening at 80%e, and gained another 1% at the close. May corn was up % at the opening gt 86% and showed a gain of an additional l%e in later trading. December oats was % higher at the opening at 52!4c, but gained % additional at the close. May oats was unchanged at the opening at 58c, but advanced % at the close. (By Thomson & McKinnon) —Oct. 22Wheat—lncreased offerings of wheat from the Southwest, together with embargo against two ports were Offset by a considerable improvement in foreign demand. Total export sales last night and this morning are estimated at 2,000,000 bushels wheat and two cargoes or flour. Chicago beiug the principle hedging market, it follows that the buying by exporters against sales abroad appears In this market as well as the hedging sales against purchases from the interior. Total stocks of wheat here are only 659,000 bushels, therefore, under the sixe of the demand against export sales, the market is particularly sensitive. Premiums for current arrivals were slightly Improved from yesterday, hard winter selling ot 6c to 6%c over December against 4t to 0c over yetti winter was 15c to 16c over December us compared with 13c yesterday The momentum agpined may be sufficient to advance prices still further, but it Is a question as to whether the foreign demand will follow the advance. Corn—Some of the strength In corn has been gained from the action of wheat, but It Is noticeable that there Is an increase in the number of those who believe that price* ure low enough for the time being. It is fair to assume that this feeling may spread to the distributing trade In the East. If so, the shipping demand will Improve and the market show further strength, but In time, the enormous surplus will be tbe dominant control of price. Oats—There is no evidence of any foreign demand for oats. At the same time the exportable surplus of Argentine Is estimated at 28,000,000 bushels as against 30,000.01*.* bushels last year and 48,000,(0) bushels the year before. There Is, therefore, some chance, more or less remote, of a foreign demand iu the future* As In corn the enormous surplus of feed* will ultimately overcome items of a contrary nature. Provision*-—Weakness la hogs was the reason for considerable liquidation in products. Strength in grains induced short covering tn addition to which some •suppngf vva*> give 4? .November lard. It would not tm surprising to see a fair reaction la both hogs and products.
