New York. Nov. s.-The market prac-
ideally retrieved to-day the losses Of the
last two days. the majority of the rail-

val considerable irresularity At the OPEN

There was a good deal Of activity during
the first hour. mainly centered In the
spccialties and changes in the railroad
list were almost unappreciabie. though the
market held a very hard surface. Trad
ing was dull almost to the point of stagna-

BILE gains were made.
The movement started with a sudden
advance OF nearly five points In Metropoli-
tan Street railway and Consolidated Gas
followed with an almost equal gain.

ord. and Great Northern preferred jumped
over a point. Other railroad stocks which
extended their net gains to a point or over
were Omaha. Northwestern and Denver
preferred. Gains In the grangers and
Northern Pacific and one or two other
stocks approximated a point. The market
was held throughout the early dealings
by the strength of Sugar. which rose
above us and closed after various huctua-
lions. Tobacco and Federal Steel pre-
ferred also showed a hardening tendency.
but were much less active than of late.
The recovery In stocks was attributed to
relief over the more peaceful prospects
abroad. as indicated by the recovery in
British consols. the easing of the discount
rate In London and the weakness of the
wheat market.
London bought In this market for the

Produce.

Chicago. Nov. 3.-wheat opened weak
enough to suggest that an era of universal
peace had suddenly ~supplanted the late
protracted period of belligerency. English
government securities. however, opened
somewhat lower than they closed the day
before. and according to rumors floating
around the pit, Englan~ appeared to be
spelling for an immediate tussle with
Russia as well as France. An inkling Of
what subsequent cablegrams revealed.
however, must have been known to some
traders. who at the start had December
wheat for sale at from Z TO sc below last
nights close. Some OF the early selling
was doubtless due also to the appearance
of fine weather and the probable effect Of
~prolonging the time of heavy deliveries
by farmers.
A Liverpool cablegram. reporting Odessa
stocks of wheat officially to he over 6.0co.-
900 bushels instead of only 3. 100000 bushels.
as reported at the end of October. had a
considerable bearish influence. Another de-
pressing feature of the days news was
Beerbohm's statement. which made Euro
pean and OH passage stocks of wheat and
-four 100000 bushels larger than esti-
mated Oct. 1. December closed ixq%c
lower.
Trading In corn was not OF an important
character and although the feeling was
rather heavy at times, on account of the
declining tendency of wheat. the loss for
the day was all accomplished at the start.
December lost sc.
Oats were particularly active and de-
cidedly strong at times. Continued ligh
receipts and good general cash demand
inspired heavy buyers of futures. May
closed at &c advance.
Liberal hog receipts and the
i'm grains started provisions weak. There
were more buyers for the offerings, how
ever. that could be supplied at the lower
figures with which the market began.
Buying on a moderate scale continued
ever when prices rose beyond yesterdays
closing prices. Pork left on 2lsc higher:
lard 2ikn5c and ribs 2IRc higher.

WOMEN MUST NOT WEEP.
Fashion DEGREES That Tears Are Not
the correct Thing"


1t is no longer the fashion for women to
weep. says a writer in the New York sun.
She must give up the good, comfortable
cry that does her such world of good
if she means TO do the correct thing. There
was day when women found big, sad eyes
lust ready to send forth flood or tears
a very effective weapon il arefractory man
happened to be about. But that day has
passed. and the fearful sex has learned
that Insecurity can't he brought to time
by any such moist methods. When woman
begins to show the oldfashioned signs OF
distress nowadays man says, Don't cry.
1t makes your nose and eyes red and ugly"
or For Heavens sake, stop that crying
game unless you want TO get rid of me,
for viii not stand it,"
This is positively cruel on the part of
man for woman enjoys crying. OF course.
man can't understand this, for when he
cries which is seldom, he cries from the
diaphragm. and it hurts him: gives him
actual physical pain, which sometimes
last for hours, and ia some cases for days.
4 man who smashed all records as a quar-
terback on d Yale football team says that
he feels much sorer after a cry than he
ever did after battle on the gridirpn
with Harvard or Princeton. All men can
sympathiZe with him in this, while women
cannot possibly imagine how such thing
can be true Women cry from the chest
OF throat without the slightest effort. That
good old German proverb, Nothing dries
sooner than tear" must have been writ
ten by man.
