DUN'S REVIEW or TRADE.

NEW YORK, October 20.-R. G. Dun
G. Co.'s Weekly Review Of Trade will
say tomorrow:
In most lines business continues TO
expand. though in some there are
signs that buying has been checked,
either because prices have outrun the
views Of buyers, or because recent pur-
chases have been so heavy that no.
body is left in need. Prices are still
advancing, in almost every line sup
ported by rising prices Of materials,
and works everywhere are still crowd
ed to their utmost capacity, while al
many points it is found hard TO get
enough competent hands. But the vol
ume of business expected in values
rises much more than prices. showing a
remarkable increase in quantities OF
goods exchanged.
The outbreak of war in South Africa
has brought no such changes as many
feared In England the markets have
treated it as an event already over-dis-
counted, and relations with this eoun-
try were not appreciably affected.
The outgo of cotton is Just now check
ed. but of other great staples and manu-
featured products the foreign demand Il
surprisingly sustained.
Wheat has declined liz cents in price
in spite of unfavoraDle crop reports, and
western receipts do not keep up with
the unprecedented movement Of last
year. having been but 20, As, 400 bushels.

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, Octobr 20.-Wheat re-
sumed its downward course again to-
day and December closed with net loss
of 5sQ%c. Liquidation. induced by
heavy additions to domestic stocks in
the face OF a poor foreign demand, was
responsible for the decline. Corn. oats
and provisions were comparatively
strong and closed practically unchang-
ed. Heaviness abroad and free Argen-
tine shipments to Europe started wheat
weak, and lower. The bears were in
clined to work within narrow limits.
however, and as the market at the cut
set was considerably under put figures,
a partial recovery followed on buying
against privileges. Covering By shorts
owing to moderate domestic receipts
and the strength developed by corn also
added somewhat to the up turn. The
liquidation, however. was of sufficient
volume to prevent anything like an en-
during advance and as the demand was
short-lived the market soon started on
the down grade again. The bears were
disinclined to push their advantage
Trade finally became so dull that for
an hour in the middle of the session

bushels, against 9,6S6,226 bushels last
year, and Pacific exports 1853. 1SS bush
els, against 2,29S.3l2 bushels last year.
Beyond doubt prices would rise far and
fast with such foreign demand IL off,
cial and other current reports OF yield
were fully credited. Corn exports add
testimony as to foreign needs, having
been in three weeks 1928, 406 bushels,
against 1909. 039 bushels last year.
The upward move of cotton, three
sixteenths for the week, has now come
to depend largely upon a great specu-
lation, for farmers by the thousand are
now holding back cotton to some ex-
tent, while important banking and trad
ing interests are enlisted. The con-
sumption is heavy. but might be much
larger. even with the lowest estimate
of yield, without exhausting the visible
and mill supplies. Prices of goods have
risen so far that there is some doubt
whether they can be maintained. Wool
has also enlisted a powerful speculative
interest and sales of II. 293. 900 pounds
for the week at three chief markets rep
resent about twice the consumption.
But it is stated that manufacturers. ex-
elusive OF he American Wooden Com
pany, have been buying quite freely and
while goods for men wear outside Of
worsteds were not particularly active,
there has been excellent business in
dress goods.
Sales of $4,000 tons OF Bessemer pig
and reported demand for 100000 tons
of billets in bare market at Pittsburg
have made quotations less intelligent
than usual. Bessemer sales at So for
next year and $2450 for this year, az
Pittsburg, are reported with billet sales
at $50 TO $40, and sales of sheet bars at
$50 per ton. The western market is
strong and the eastern not changed.
While large orders for bars are refused
at Pittsburg by the works, which are
full for many months ahead, others
just starting are seeking such orders
at 81 cents, and the Chicago and Pitts
burg markets are still full of orders fol-
plates, although the works at Pittsburs
have nearly caught up. and some OF
them are now taking only 2.75 cents,
against 2,90 cents last week.
Some works are also taking orders
for sheets at 1910. and in other direc-
lions there are signs that the enormous
production begins to be felt. There IS
a possibility of check owing to shortage
of cars at Connellsville. which restricts
delivery of coke, the output for the
week having been 100, 29S tons, with
more ovens in operation and prices un-
changed.
I In the minor metals, tin is very dull
and declining at 9115 cents and the cop
per market has been broken, lake be-
ling freely offered at Is cents.
Failures for the week have been 145
in the United States against 22l last
year, and 20 in Canada against "a last

Finally longs, who had been waiting
for an up-turn to unload, lost patience
and offerings becoming quite plentiful,
the market gave way under the pressure
and ended up at the bottom Of the day 5
range Indications of an increase OF
1000, 900 in the visible supply this week
FASTENED the decline. December opened
1ac lower at 701ac, scld sparingly at
70ssc, advanced to 70$c. declined to
701zc, and closed with sellers at 70A@
70ssc.
Chicago received 154 cars. two OF
which gradted contract. Minneapolis
and Duluth got $40 compared with 1,190
for the corresponding day last year.
Total primary receipts were $4,000
against 1,433, 900 bushels year ago.
Atlantic port clearances in wheat and
flour equally $4,000 bushels. Argentine
shipments to Europe this week were
], 464, 900 bushels, whereas none were
shipped from that country the same
week last year. Minneapolis stocks
increased this week 100000 bushels
and Duluth $4,000 bushels. Cash de-
mand here slow.
Corn was relatively strong and ac-
tive There was a slight dip at the
opening III sympathy Will NnCot, OU1
this was soon supplanted by sharp
upturn. Poor husking returns and a
steady increase in local stocks in conse-
quence of the excellent shipping de-
mand encouraged general buying, but
the weakness of wheat in the last half
hour had an unfavorable effect and the
advance was all lost. Cash demand
here was good and AZ boatloads were
sold at the seaboard. Receipts 519
cars. December opened shade lower
at 301ac, declined to 303sc, advanced
to 304c and declined to 301sc at the
close
There was very little trade in oats
and what little fluctuation occurred was
due almost entirely to sympathy with
corn. Receipts 246 cars. December
opened &c lower 221sc, advanced TO

The victims did not sQueal until the
sharpers had driven TO Fairmont and
caught the night train for Wheeling
The efforts of the Fairmont police to
head them off were thus nullified. The
victim was Charles B. Blair, of Greene
county. He came here to meet the two
strangers, who are presumably from
Pennsylvania. They were to sell him
one thousand green goods for three
hundred dollars good money His
money in an envelope was exchanged

WOOL.

BOSTON, October 20.-The CONNER
cial Bulletin will say tomorrow:
Buying has been active again this
week in the wool market, number or
the manufacturers having come in FOR
supplies somewhat in advance of their
actual needs because they felt that
prices were likely to go higher. This
feature in connection with the steady
buying for present needs has made a
firm and buoyant market. Besides the
steady domestic demand there is a grow
ing call for wool for export. A number
of English buyers are understood to be
on the way here at the present time 10
make purchases, if prices can be agreed
upon.
The sales for the week were 6.3SS, 900
bales domestic and 1911 900 bales for
eign, a total of $4,000 bales for this
week, against total of 3,936,000 bales
last week and total of 2,S29,000 the
corresponding week last year. The re-
ceipts to date show an increase of 310,-
ia bales domestic and a decrease OF
29,0 bales foreign against last year.
The sales to date show an increase of
100, 1888, 100 bates domestic and 1902, 900
bales foreign.

CAPE TOWN, October -Evening-D.s s.
patches dated Mafeking, Saturday night
and carried by dispatch riders via Kurt
man and Danielskuil to Hooktown, state
that Col. Baden Powell inflicted ire
mendous blow on the Beers nine miles
north of Mafeking.
Two trucks laden with dynamite, which
it was judged unsafe to keep in Mafekine
on account of the risk of explosion should
the town be shelled. were sent by Col
Baden Powell nine miles out in the hope
that the Beers would shell and explode
them. And it so happened. When the en-
CINE had coupled from the trucks and re-
treated about a mile the enemy shelled the
trucks with the result that a terrible ex-
plosion occurred, killing, it is estimated,
100 Beers.
