NEW YORK, Oct 11.-Stock market
movements today were again very uncer-
tain. and. in the main, limited. The war
like culmfnation of the situation in South
Africa was not followed by the generally
expected decline in the London stock mar
ket With the course OF the day, 10 be
sure, consols declined materially. but the
early eabied advices showed that American
stocks were substantially higher than they
were at the close Of business here yester-
day. The subsequent dealings in this mar
ket for foreign account were on too small
a scale to be effective in shaping prices.
Particular and detailed comment upon the
days price movements is hardly necessary.
in view Of the general situation governing
speculation. At the opening OF business
c.. c.. G. & ST. l. advanced rather sharply
and Chesapeake and Ohio moved up sym
pathetically on reports that material prog
ress is making toward the consolidation or
the two lines, although definite information
in this respect was wanting. Sugar Re
fining, Tennessee Coal and Iron, and few
other specialties also scored sharp rises,
but, as noted, these were subsequently lost
In the general reaction the market suf-
fered after the first hour.
Probably because of the indifference
shown by the London market in regard 10
the South African situation, and further
on account Of the expected relief to the
monetary situation by reason of the pre-
payment Of the interest on the Government
debt. the market, after opening with an
uncertain tone, developed strength. and in
the first hour a number of noteworthy ad-
vances were scored. Thereafter, however.
general irrep1,lsri+V develored and the
market lost all of the animation that it
showed after the opening and most of the
gains scored in the first hour. Apart from
the speculative influences already noted,
there was nothing TO affect the situation
except the railway traffic returns for the
first week Of the month submitted by a
number Of companies. among which the
St. Paul road made a notably good show
ing. In the circumstances OF an actual
state of war in South Africa, with the
peculiar financial bearing Of the hostilities.
Il was perhaps natural that the market
should hesitate during the greater part of
the day. Apparently the conflict, while Il
can have but one issue viii be protracted
and sanguinary and no relaxation in the
European monetary situation can be rea-
sonably expected during actual hostilities.
further question to be determined, OF
course, is as TO what disposition the Beers
viii make Of the Rand gold properties, and,
indeed therein lies the chief significance
OF the war from g financial point Of view
The local money market today showed a
material degree of relaxation, which would
probably have been more decisively re-
hected in stock prices but for the uncer-
tainries in regard 10 the progress Of the
war in Africa. Sterling exchange ad-
vanced further as a partial result OF the

BoNDHoLDERs NOT PRESSED.
No Probability of Heavy Calls for
Interest Payments.

The offer OF the Treasury Department to
anticipate the payment of interest on the
public debt accruing up to July /, 1901,
cannot be taken advantage of before Mon
day next, under the terms of circulars is
sued on Tuesday, and until after that day
nothing definite can be told regarding the
probable amount of money that will be re-
leased into the channels of trade by the
action of the Treasury.
In the opinion of some of the older OFF,
cials of the department, and of many finan-
cial people here and IN New York, the
amount of money that will be withdrawn
from the Treasury pursuant to the offer of
anticipation OF interest will not be any
thing like the amount available-about
$26 000, 900. 1t is recalled that in the fall OF
1890 a growing Treasury surplus and a
stringency in the money market were met
by the offer of Secretary Window, on the
9Th of September, to advance the pay
ment of interest on the outstanding 4
per cent bonds up to July i, 1901, with
out rebate or discount. AT that time
there were outstanding $571, ,693, 500 of 4
per cent refunding bonds and S3O,5OO,0 00O
of per cent resumption bonds. Later the
offer, which in that case was request
! to the holders to accept the prepayment
of interest, was extended to the currency
| skies, of which there were then 4,623,- :
512 outstanding. From the first OF DC
| tober, 1890, TO July /, 1891, the amount
of interest accruing on these bonds which
| the Government offered to pay at once
was about 2O,975, 600, but the total sum
paid out under the Treasury offer was a
| little over $12.000,000.
The difficulty is,' said one of the
| Treasury officials yesterday, that COM
| paratively few holders OF bonds are
concerned about the state of the money
market or care cent about the fuctua-
tions of the stock exchange. Most OF
| them feel that they get little enough in
terest on their bonds anyway, and the
| proposition TO discount that by a rebate
of two-tenths of ! per cent month will
not strike them favorably.
| 1t is estimated that not more than one
| half the bonds are held by the banks.
| 1t is thought possible that some of the
| banks may avail themselves OF the offer
| of the Treasury, but even as to this there
| is skepticism in many quarters The
| fact that money rates in New York de-
| clined yesterday indicates to many that
| there has been little real stringency in
| money but rather only dear call money,
| because the banks and other lenders could
| take advantage of the immediate need OF
| borrowers. If this is the fact, the banks
are not likely to pay the Government for
money which would do nothing except
/ lower rates that they desire to keep up.

INSURANCE IN GEORGIA.
Two Companies Revoke Licenses and
Leave the State.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 1.-Two OF the in
surance companies have withdrawn from
the State, while one new company has
applied for permission to do business here.
Comptroller General Wright sent by to-
days mail to the British Foreign and Ma
rine Insurance Company, of Liverpool, a
registered package containing $4,000 in
United States registered 4 per cent bonds,
the amount of the company's deposit with
the State Treasurer. Another company
which has announced TO the comptroller
general its Intention of withdrawing from
the State is the Milwaukee Merchants
Fire Insurance Company, of Milwaukee,
Wis. This concern has not yet begun the
advertisement of its intention TO with
draw, as is required but has discontinued
business and has revoked the licenses of
all its agents in Georgia.
1t is understood that the outstanding
policies with the Milwaukee company will
be allowed to expire before its formal with
drawal One Of these companies has only
been doing business in Georgia for about
two years and in neither case is there
any reason assigned for withdrawing. The
new company which has applied for per-
mission TO do business in Georgia Is the
Union Surety and Guaranty Company, in
corporated under the laws of Pennsylvania.

ADVICE TO EXPORTERS.
They Should Keep In Touch With
ConsuIs, Says Mr.. TourEee.

Consul Tourgee, of Bordeaux, France,
writes the State Department under date
of September 16, 1899, regarding exporters;
TT would be advisable for exporters to
let consuls know something about the sue
cess or failure of enterprises in which they
engage in their districts. AS 1t is now,
they write asking information about
dealers, opportunities, etc. The consul
writes perhaps score of letters to get the
information they want tells them what
they must do, and then hears nothing
more from them. 1t is impossible for him
to learn what is done or being done along
the lines he has recommended. The French
authorities report importations IN man
ner so different from our own that reila-
bile comparison is literally impossible.
Mr.. Tourgee adds:
THE French dealer is suspicion itself
He thinks anyone who asks about his busi-
ness is an enemy, and the American ex-
porter apparently imagines the consul mas
no interest In his business until his help
is needed to collect a bad debt, which
might never have been incurred If the
consul had been informed with whom he

1t is the great medical triumph of the
nineteenth century; discovered after years
OF scientific research by DR.. Kilmer, the

is wonderfully successful in promptly cur
ing kidney, liver, bladder, and uric acid

Swamp Root has been tested in so many
ways, in hospital work, in private practice,
among the helpless too poor to purchase
relief, and has proved so successful in
every case that a special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of the The
Times who have not already tried it, may
have a sample bottle sent free by mail,
also book telling more about Swamp
Root and how to find out If you have kid
ney or bladder trouble. When writing

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
The Expected Transvanl War Fa-
vorabIe to Prices of Cereals.


CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-Wheat was up ga
cent, mainly on the news that Transvaal
war is inevitable. This is practically
all there was to the wheat mar
ket. Liverpool early was up a
penny and held about half of it. The
foreigners evidently took all the cash wheat
they could lay their hands upon. New
York figures the seaboard business at over
500 COO bushels. ST. Louis claims about
ESQ 600 bushels. Kansas City reports a
large business there. If the figures are to
be believed a million or more bushels OF
wheat have been taken by foreigners on
this side today. Early, the professionals
were inclined to sell the market the cash
news finally driving them in. The De-
cember wheat got TO 73, and closed there
There was an increase in the worlds visible
/ of over 5000 600 bushels. Clearances we're
440. 600 bushels. Primary receipts were
400, 600 bushels under last year. Northwest
ern cars were TAO, against 1,135 a year ago.
Corn moved up cent. 1t was as dis
tinctly case of war in this cereal as In
wheat. The seaboard puts the export
business at 40 loads. II this figure is cor
rect, it means about 100000 bushels sold
TO the other side. There has been a very
large business done in the West, about
100000 bushels by one Baltimore concern.
II is possible TO find sales here aggregating
100000 bushels.
Oats were up about IL cent, partly in
sympathy with the other grains and partly
for the same reasons they were. The sea-
board reported oats cables up penny. Re-
ceipts were 223 cars, with 215 for tomorrow.
