first hours trading made further ad-
vance of nearly 12c. During this time
the volume of business was CONSIDER
ably heavier than OF late. 1hls
strength was principally due to the
statement of Joseph Letter that he had
disposed OF 100000 bushels OF cash
wheat Monday last for export.
Indications of an urgent demand Tor
wheat abroad tended to make shorts
uneasy. In addition to that, however,
the New York stock market had recoV-
cred an opening decline before trading
commenced here. Another bull help
was the big falling of in Argentine

New York, April ALL the news
papers were very warlike to-day. but
news was 2s conflicting as usual.
some dispatches stated Spain will
make concessions to the United States,
While others apparently from the same
source indicated a drift towards war.
Professional traders under the cir
cumstances are not disposed to buy.
noT can the outside public be induced
to take hold at this juncture unless
large risks are assumed Conserve
tive people continue to regard any
protracti~n OF the present strained re-
lations between this country and Spain
as more detrimental to financial and
commercial interests than an actual
declaration of war. and for this rea-
son they feel inclined TO await further
developments before renewing oper-
atoms in the market for either the
long or short account Now it is
promiced at the April nesting of the
Northwestern roads the Canadian Pa
cific rate war will be settled. 1t is
certain that strong English pressure
will be put on. The Arbuckles are
busily engaged in making final eX-
periments in refining sugar and it
intends to start active competition
with the Havemeyers some time next
month. The Arbuckles represent

meyers will use as ammunition the
surplus Of the Sugar Company, which

tnined the Day before EIectnn.

AAAru inc Dhy betOFe Ebtcbh.
New York, Nov. lon the eve of an
election of great local and national i'm
portance the stock market preserved the
same characteristics that have been evil
dent for the past fortnight. In short,
while the trading was rather light in
volume the markets tone was decidedly
firm. number of stocks, furthermore,
showed pronounced strength. Southern
Railway preferred. Atchison preferred,
Metropolitan Street Railway and Pull
man Palace Car being conspicuous exam
pies. The buying of these stocks. at
least in the cases of the first three. was
entirely on considerations of the earnings,
while Southern Railway and Atchison
preferred were particularly influenced by
dividend prospects In the instance of
the Southern Railway Company, interest
was, doubtless, specially stimulated by
the fine showing reported for the fourth
week of October. the increase in gross
earnings being no less than 20 per cent.
Such a showing following the Louisville
indicates that the railway lines in the
Southern States are enjoying a period of
exceptional prosperity.
1t may be assumed that, to some extent.
the strength Of the market was owing
to the greater confidence felt that the
issue of the elections tomorrow would te
satisfactory. There was otherwise very
little in the days situation TO affect SEN
timent in any way. The local market
wholly ignored the lower range OF prices
and the moderate selling orders sent in
by London, and neither the money nor
the foreign exchange market developed
any features of significance.
The granger shares were also very firm
on a moderate volume of business, st.
Paul and Rock Island being the features
of this group. The anthracite coal stocks
were dull and heavy, presumably on the
discovery that the agreed upon output for
October had been exceeded.
The industrial shares in the main were
firm. The best prices of the day were
only fractionaliy shaded in the final deal
ings. Notwithstanding a natural desire to
even up contracts over tomorrow's eiec-
ton.
