STOCKS OPEN STRONG
On Buying for London, Philadelphia,
Boston and Chicago.
GENERAL ELECTRIC is ADVANCED
On That Decision and Reports of Enormous
Net Earnings.
LSN.G.RA AND THE CHANGERS HIGHER

NEW YORK, Oct. 5-There was quite a
shrinkage in the volume of business at the
New York Stock Exchange to-day. The
dealings were attended with less excitement
and the variations were confined within
narrower limits The market was strong to
huoyaut in the early trading on the execu-
ton of buying orders for London, Philadel-
phia. Boston, Chicago and local accounts.
General Electric rose early 2 points on the
decision rendered yesterday in favor of the
company in the case of the incandescent
light. 1t is stated that the net earnings of
the company Tor August and the first three
weeks Of September reached upward of
ssOo.G0O The stock closed n below the
highest point.
After the movement in General Electric
subsided the bulls devoted their attention
to Louisville and Nashville, Union Pacific
and the grangers, which advanced u to ~
per cent the latter in Louisville and Nash
VILE The bull fever was running high but
the upper movement was checked by drop
in New England from 4515 to 435s under
heavy sales. A good deal or long stock was
marked and the bears hammered away per-
sistently on the statement that the road
would not be leased but would probably
enter into a traffic arrangement with the
Reading and Boston and Maine. The belief
in u deal" of some sort had become SO gen.
eral that the latest reports of a mere traffic
arrangement naturally occasioned disap-
pointment
Despite the drop in New England the
general list declined only Il to x per cent
from the highest, with the sole exception
of Reading, which yielded l1s. Houses with
Philadelphia connections were largest buy
ers on the way down.
Hooking Valley declined over points on
the decision Just rendered against the COM
pany affecting the validity of some SS,0000o0
bonds issued by a former management.
American Tobacco common advanced and
reacted 2per cent
The market closed rather weak.
Railroad bonds were less active but the
tone of the market WAS strong. The trans
actions aggregated 81, SOC, 600
Government bonds were higher. Close

liberal, and exports from the sea-
ports were smaller. A dispatch from
Marshall, Ind, said that only 70 per cent of
an average OF winter wheat had az peen zen a sown

were monopolizing what appeared above
ground. The dispatch is being paraded IS q
favored with two consecutive heavy crops
of wheat, three big crops in succession have
so far never occurred here or elsewhere in
the world Closing cables were for the most
part firm, and Bradstreet's estimate OF the
visible supply did not show as heavy an In
creaseas had been looked for, but the fact
of the receipts at primary markets e1ceeo-
ing 17S5o 600 bushels which are the heaHaess vi eE
for one day on this crop, kept buyers DacR
and encouraged short selling.
The corn market was firm at the opening
and little higher, due in part to colder
consin and Michigan. Frosts predicted by
the Signal Service Bureau for the States OF
Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York steadieo
the market at the decline. The estimated
receipt of 603 cars for tomorrow was CON
sidered too heavy a movement to wake up
the bull side of the market on.
There was gradual f1rming up of all pro.
ducts in the provision trade. The oulk OF
the business was for January, with Octooer
generally neglected. Ever since the nrs5
cholera scarce there has been more or less
Shorting OF the market for January SO as
to be ready tor the decline which migne
follow the breaking down of the Wrlsnt
corner in short ribs. Of late the hogs nave
not come up to expectations. Instead OF
heavy movement and lower prices at tne
yards the hogs are being marked up grau-
ually. The shorts are now beginning TO get
even on their January contracts. In pork
it was known that Wright was pretty gooa
buyer and this gave the market lit.
Altogether the broad, strong market was
surprise.

Cattle and Sheep Lower at East Liberty and
Hogs Strong.
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 8
AS rule good granted cattle, hogs and
sheep ruled steady to firm at the Central
yards this week, but other grades were gen.
orally lower, sheep and lambs suffering the
greatest declines. The close to-day was
rather heavy on common and medium
grades of stock and strong ON good corn-fed.
The grass-fed stuff offering this fall is only
about half fattened in consequence of the
poor quality of the range grass last spring
and summer, the result being that lower
prices than usual are ruling. The receipts
this week we're above the average numeri-
cally, which helped to give the market a
weak appearance.
CATTLE
The supply on sale Monday was 40 loads.
against 1876 loads last Monday. Again the
receipts were mostly common and medium
grades for which the market ruled slow at
decline of 1O@l5c per cwr from last weeks
prices, while prime cattle were steady at
quotations. Tuesday receipts were Z loads;
market slow at Mondays prices.

LONG WHEAT DUMPED,
But Prices Recede Only FractionaIly-Cor
Lower and Products Higher,

CHICAGO, Oct 5.-Four million bushels of
long wheat were dumped into the pit to-day.
Nevertheless wheat tonight is only L4L c
lower than at the close yesterday. Corn is
from L@15c. Provisions were firm and
higher under the lead of January pork,
which advanced 325ac per barrel
Wheat opened very strong, and first sales
were at some advance, tho strength being
based on higher cables and brisk local de-
mHnd. But there seemed to be any amount
for sale at the advance, and there wasl a
gradual loss of 5sc, from which there was
subsequently but little rebound. One of the
poienG reasons for the early display of
strength was the unfavorable reports OF the
condition of the winter wheat. In Illinois,
