NEW YORK, y. Y, Nov. 12.-Less attention
was paid 10 foreign news at the Stock Exchange
to-day, and even lower cables from London mad
but mporary influence on the local share specu-
laton. Operators, generally speaking, have rele
gated the Eastern question 70 thA rear and are
more concerned about the prospects of earnings of
coal roads than Tor some time past. The Govern
ment crop report Just issued has revived discus
sion about future traffic receipts, and the opinion
is almost unanimous that the phenomenal yield Of
corn Will innre 10 the gr at benefit OF railways,
more especially the Western lines
AT any rate the leading officials of these systems
taxing this stran and their interviews have
stimulated purchases of stock by capitalists who
have been out OF the market for months. The
granger roads are steadily increasing therreceipts
as il is and the earnings promise to be something
enormous when corn begins TO move freely. For
October the Northwestern will shortly show gain
said, Is doing almost well. The fact that ster-
ling exchange has weakened enough TO prevent
gold shipments tomorrow also had good effect
on stocks There are still rumors OF exports of the
metal on Saturday, but it is by means sure that
shipments Will lie mad that day, as cotton is
showing declining tendency.
