Financial Qno Commercial e
The CHICAGO Market

Chicago Nov 5.-Bullish foreign news
of many sorts today revived the wheat
pit after a lethargy of several months
and also helped other grain markets.
December wheat closed 1Q1B higher
December corn q up and December oats
Y advanced. Provisions closed 212q5 to
5@7ls up.
Everything in the wheat situation to-
day pointed to better prices and more
active trade for some time to come
Slightly improved cables from Liverpool
Paris and Antwerp, based supposedly
upon the recent report here were the
initial influences for the advance There
was continued independent strength in
the corn situation and this gave an added
impetus to wheat; December opened only
a shade higher on these factors, but rose
steadily throughout the session. Many
shorts who have tried to bear the market
were forced to buy in at loss and
turned bulls when news arrived of short
ages in the Russian and Argentine crops
and of the removal of the import duty
on wheat into Mexico of 80 cents bushel.
Sales to Mexico were reported, and just
before the close of the session came re-
ports of a decline in British consuls,
probably the result of the war scare.
December and May were both bulled by
professionals and sold at a difference of
just 8 cents. December closed strong,
1G11k cents advanced at 729s Seaboard
clearances were only 1872, coo bushels.
Corn was active during most of the
session with Strong uIueTlOie. YUM
mission houses were buyers and the sell
ing was mainly by long taking profits.
December opened hGA cents higher and
advanced fairly on strong cash markets.
One or two prominent longs let go their
lines and this encouraged short selling
again On sales to points which hereto
fore have been sellers in this market
there was a reaction and scurrying
among the shorts. On the rise there
seemed to be as much corn wanted as
there had been a week or so ago When
prices were considerably lower. Crop
reports continue unsatisfactory and there
is constant talk of feeding the new crop
to stock December advanced to 591a1
595A at one time and closed firm, q cent
higher, at 59la,
Oats were nervous and active under the
influence of corn. The cash situation
improved receipts were small and COM
mission houses were buyers. A prominent
bull operator did much to advance the
market by his heavy purchases. Decem-
Der which onened unchanged. advanced
with but slight reactions and closed Y
cent up. at 375s.
Provisions ruled heavy early in the day,
influenced by lower prices for hogs.
Prices were lower all around and there
was some depressions as the result of sell
ing by packers. Later there was de-
mand by short BASED partially on the
grain situation and January pork closed
31d6l5 cents up, at IA S21a; January lard
5d71A cents up, at S.55dS Sta and January
ribs, 21ad5 cents higher, at 1871.

The Old October Brew

1t has been told in song and story about the Old
October Ale And rightly too, for every year
at this time the new hops just picked from the
clustering vines impart to our Tadcaster Ales
and Matchless Porter that superb and delicate
flavor that is SO appreciated by connoisseurs.
Some dealers in trying to palm off to new
arrival an inferior ale, may say that it is just as
good as Bowler Brothers Tadcaster Ales, but
when he does that turn round and face him, look
him squarely in the eye and tell him he is a ..
we'll, very economical with the truth
lust as good as our Tadcaster Ale DON'T GO.
There is no other ale just as good. When Our
competitors in trying to sell their so called ales
use our Tadcaster Ales as a standard, it proves
to you at once that our Tadcaster Aes are ALL
RIGHT
All the leading bottlers of this city use our
Tadcaster Ales and Matchless Porter, and no
other.

IT INTERESTS US.

There is much that is interesting and
encouraging in the Naval Bureau Of
Constructions report Of the progress
made during August in the building OF
the many vessels now under course of
construction for the further strengthen
ing of the American Navy.
This report shows that good progress
has been scored in the building of four
battleships. four armored cruisers, five
protected cruisers, three monitors, six
teen torpedo-boat destroyers, nine tor
pedo boats and five submarine torpedo
boats. This is Il formidable exhibit and
indicates how earnest is the national
determination TO maintain the navy at
the proper standard of modern sea
power.
st. Louisans and Missouriuns in gen.
eral may well take an especial interest
In the reports of naval construction
progress. The battleship Missouri is
one Of the four battieships now being
built. The building of the protected
cruiser st. Louis is shortly to be begun.
Both will probably be completed and
placed in commission for service before
the dawn OF the Worlds Fair year.
They will naturally figure among the
factors that help to advertise the
Worlds Fair City and State TO the
world.
