Ocean FREIGHT Rates.

galveston, Texas, December 13.--Amos
G. Fonda, chief clerk in the general freight
Office OF the Santa Fe. was asked this
morning regarding the report published in
The Post today from Austin relative 10 the
juggling Of rates for European freight, and
was shown an account Of the accusations
made. He said that there was absolutely
no ground for such a charge J. H. john

the Santa Fe. also made q similar state
ment regarding the matter. declining to

case any further. r II, Goodwin the

however, been making through rates for
European freight This. applies not only
10 the Santa Fee hut TO other roads as
We'll. Railroad rates when made remain
stationary for twenty -four hours, and the
ocean freight rates are changed as often
as the brokers desire. Ii Is claimed that
in this manner 1t has happened that AT
times the railroad rate for ocean tonnage
would he cheaper than that Of the brokers
until the next change is made at the end
n the twenty-four hours. This is pos
slhly one Of the causes of the complaint
which was made.

absence of any strong outside interest

buyers, prices eased off and December

THE CHICAGO MARKET.
Specials to White &. White:

Specials to White & White:
CHICAGO, October 17.-Corn started
easy and within the first half hour
showed nc loss. There seemed to be
some corn for sale by Patten brokers;
commission houses took offerings.
There was a recovery of 1sc, putting
the market over last nights close.
Northwestern offerings and primary
receipts were small, $4,000 bushels,
against 81 1000 last year. The Price
Current is non-eofnmittal, declaring
husking not changing the prospect.
Receipts, 1877 cars, with 1S5 for to-
morrow.
Oats-There has been some Patten
buying of oats futures and the market
is up small fraction. They have had
the help of corn and wheat firmness.
Receipts small; demand small. Bids
of clipped oats about 1ac better than
last week. Clearances, 100000 bush
els. Receipts, 1879 cars, with 133 for to-
morrow.
Wheat was firm. Liverpool cables
were some influence in export demand
and more liberal cleai ances and I'M
favorable Argentine crop news has
added to the bullish sentiment locally
in wheat, and local traders have bought
freely. The market is disappointing in
that it responds SO poorly to Blu fish
efforts at time when primary receipts
are light. The southwest and north
west were sellers on all hard spots. as
were elevator representatives, giving
the impression that country offerings
are more free and will result in the
early enlargement of crop movement.
Conditions are very favorable for grow
ing crops and indications point TO
quite an increased area sown 10 win
ter wheat. The close is dull and dis
tinct disappointment to the bulls
Provisions opened firm on less hogs
than expected and later ruled strong
and higher on good buying by the
shorts Armour bought October ribs.
The cash demand is better. The mar
ket closed strong at about the highest
prices of the day. Fifteen thousand
hogs tomorrow.

LONDON MONEY MARKET.

NEW 4ORK. October 17-Commer-
eial Advertisers London financial ca
blegram:
The stock market to-day was idle and
inclined to sag. Copper fell IL on a
report of an immense holding by the
Amalgamated Company. Rio Tintos
fell TO 45ls and closed at 45M, or one
point down. Anaconda sold down 3-l6
to 1-16.
American stocks opened dull with a
dearth of orders, and hardened on very
large New York orders for Norfolk IL
Western. The close was firm. London
expects New York TO keep prices
steady till some strong bull point
point comes and then It will boost the
market.
The sum of 100000 In gold has been
withdrawn from the market for ex-
port to Germany and $4,000 for Rou-
mania. The German exports are due
to the fact that the banks there are
making cautious provision in view of
the continued industrial crisis.
Berlin exchange 20.3S; Paris ex-
change recovered to 25.11h. Money
on call was l per cent. on government

C. I. HUDSON C co.

NEW YORK, October 17.-12:34 p.
m.-The Incorporation of the new c.,
B. & Q. company has been used indus
triously as bull card on stocks this
morning. The manipulation thus far
resulted in specially noteworthy ad-
vances in Northern Pacific preferred
and Great Northern, while several 9TH
er high priced issues, like st. Paul and
d. & H., have moved up quite shat ply.
Other railroad shares, including some
of the Gould stocks. which were so
weak yesterday, have participated in
the movement. but it is not apparent
that the pools have stimulated any
outside following whatever and we not
think advances as a rule will hold.
The recovery in copper was to be ex-
pected after the big break Its price has
suffered and doubtless will proceed fur
Their. but necessarily with reactions
from time to time. 1t appears there
was no truth in the rumor that the
price Of the metal is to be substantially
if at all reduced, it being said now on
good authority that the company has
the copper situation we'll in hand. A
heavy demand for money from the
South this week, coupled with govern
nent Withdrawals on balance. gives
little promise of good bank statement
on Saturday.

ports corn 1sc higher and wheat I'M

Locally the market was without a
feature worth talking about. The OBJ
ening was good, but weakness soon de-
yeloped, and the close was, as rule.
at about the lowest notch. Steel did
very well, all things considered. Kelly,

is worthy of note, however, that the
