COUNTRY PRoDUCE-( Jobbing Prices. y
The creamery butter market has found a
lower level, and, while receipts are light,
demand is also light. When creamery goes
above 3Oc per pound, as it has done of late,
the average consumer takes to oleo, and de-
mand for the former falls off as prices rise.
Choice butter has of late become luxury,
in which only the few with whom cost is
no item can indulge. Supply of potatoes
is still in excess of demand and markets are
weak at prices quoted. Sweet potatoes are
dull and slow, with tendency toward
lower prices. Apples are gaining as other
domestic fruits wane. As Halloween
draws near demand for nuts increases.
Markets in this line are now at their best
for the year. Native walnuts are in short
supply and prices are more than double the
rates OF last year. Tropical fruits are gain
ing in tone as home fruits decline. Poultry
is plenty and slow. Strictly fresh eggs are
scarce and outside quotations are easily OBJ
tanned.

Lower, Fluctuating Frequently-Oats
Strong and Higher-Hog Products
Irregular-Nearly Everything Unsettled.
CHICAGo-There was more life in the
wheat market to-day, due to a combination
of circumstances, and righer range of
prices was established. The influences
directly accountable for the advance today
were dry weather reports, higher cables and
TuInors that the export of grain from Russia
would certainly be prohibited. Some of the
large shorts" endeavored to keep prices
down and were successful in causing q tenn
porary reaction from outside prices, aided
by some realizing at the advance. The
speculative offerings were quite heavy and
prevented 1irmer rise in prices at the
time.
The drouth news was, in substance, about
the same as yesterday, a lack of moisture in
the winter wheat region causing apprehen-
zion. Cables we're higher, due, it was
claimed. to news from Russia, it being ru-
mored that the expectation of grain will be
prohibited on and after November g. The
receipts in the Northwest continue liberal
but advices from that section were received
claiming that farmers were stacking their
wheat and refusing to sell at present prices,
and that receipts may let up some. The ex-
port cleaTances were larger.
The opening was little excited, and sales
were made at a &c advance on the closing
figures of yesterday, then eased off with
some slight quotations &c, but again devel-
oped q stronger feeling, and this time prices
advanced l9sdl18c, then declined l1sc, rallied
slightly and closed about &c higher than
closing figures.
Corn was little unsettled, showing much
strength early and selling higher but broke
later on free selling by the long and short
sales, but finally reacted. october sold at
hss4 &c early, broke to 56j6c and back to SEC;
November sold from SIC to 545zc, then
broke to 531tc, but reacted TO 54l4c; year sold
at s515c TO A6s4c, back to 455sc, and at y
o'clock was 46I<c. May ranged at 423SDlSl<c.
During the last hour the market became
very weak. Shorts had covered freely and
many had dropped out, and as it began to
weaken the selling pressure increased. No
Tcmber was weakest, ana sold or TO s2Isc,
and Mt O'Clock was about SIC: October lell

steady, and at o'clock was 4Sc
Oats we're strong and higher November

easier feeling set IN during the last hour,

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-The stock market to-
day was somewhat of surprise to operat-
ors, being strong where increased weakness
was expected and rather more active where
a continuance or increase in the dullness
was counted upon. The strength of the
market was most apparent in a few stocks,
among which the Vanderbilts were most
conspicuous, followed by st. Paul, the In
dustrials and specialties like Wheeling and
Lake Erie. The upward movement un-
doubtedly had its inception in London
where there was a marked increase in the
demand for American stocks.
The market, while opening firm and
slightly higher than last evening" hesitated
in the early trading because of the pressure
brought TO bear by the traders, though the
losses incurred were no more than sufficient
to wipe out the opening gains. The contest
was soon found to be unequal and prices
gradually appreciated, though no material
movement was seen until we'll into the
afternoon, when the Vanderbilts became
conspicuous, following the Industrials,
which had been specially strong in the fore
noon. st. Paul, however, still led in the
dealings and displayed steady strength,
which forced its price up materially before
the end of the day.
Among the specialties, the Lake Erie and
Western stocks were the only strong fea-
ture, and the general list, while strong in
all parts, scored only fractional gains on
very moderate business. The rise in st.
Paul was aided by the big increase in the
net earnings for September, and the report
that Russia had prohibited all exports of
cereals helped along the good feeling in the
Granger shares. The movement, contrary
to the usual procedure of late, lasted
throughout the entire session, and the close
was quiet but strong at or about the highest
prices of the day.
Important gains include Sugar, 15s; Chicago
Gas and Lake Erie and Western preferred
each las; Lake Shore, ~; St. Paul, II; Big
Four and Canada Southern, 1H, and Lake
Erie and Western common, Atchison and
Union Pacific, each l per cent.
Railroad bonds felt the stimulus of the
new demand, and there was not only a
larger business done, but several important
advances were made in the list. There was
no special activity in any part of the list,
but the business was, as usual of late, very

A Large and Successful Auction Sale of
Stocks-Exchange Prices Bested in Many
Cases-The Regular Market Fairly
Active and Strong.
The event in local stock circles yesterday
was the auction sale on the floor of the Ex-
change in the afternoon, by John D. Bailey.
Upward OF 1,500 shares of securities and
SOS, COO in bonds were offered and nearly all
sold. This was severe test of the absorb
tive ability of Pittsburg spectators, and the
result was highly encouraging. The ready
sale of the bonds was, perhaps, the best
feature of the occasion, showing q broaden
ing market. There was large attendance,
and bidding was lively and sometimes
spirited. Prices realized were in many
cases higher than those ruling on Change.
1t was one of the most successful sales of the
kind ever held here, and the general result
is a higher standard of values for the con-
sideration of future investors. The follow
ing is list of the sales:
