Continuance of Fine Weather

THE OUTSIDERS WERE SELLERS
Report That Armour Had Disposed of

Steady.

Chicago, Oct. 22-Wheat opened
quiet and easy on the continuance of
= fine weather and weakness in corn Lo-
cal sentiment was inclined to bearish-
4 ness and selling was quite general.
J Gables We're about unchanged. Decem-
Der opened shade higher to h@A

port to the market prices declined,
sales being made at 72B. Receipts
were eighty-seven cars, three of con-

calls inclined to take the bull side and
with good commission house buying
the market became firm. December
rallied to 723a, but declined and closed

The report that Armour had disposed
of his December holdings was the prin-
cipal factor in the lower prices of corn.
altho the excellent weather was also a
weakening influence. Outsiders We're
more disposed to sell, and lacking any
supporting features the market was in
clined to weakness. December opened
M@N lower at 49I@5oh. but under
general selling quickly declined to 49A,
where covering by shorts brought a
rally to 49ss. Receipts We're 227 cars.

Covering by shorts caused firmness
in corn and December closed A@ss of a
cent lower at 70A @70ss.
Oats opened about steady, altho low
er prices in other grains had a depress-
Ing influence. Trading was light with
no features. December opened a shade
higher. at SIX @317s and declined to 81.
Receipts were 141 cars.
Liberal receipts Of hogs with lower
prices at the yards caused an easier
tone to provisions at the start, but the
early loss was quickly regained on good
demand from brokers, and the market
held steady with no selling pressure.

WILL RAISE PRICES
Harvester Combine Will Raise cos1
to the Farmers.

Chicago, Oct. 22.-The international
Harvester Company. capital $120,OOO,-
600. which is to control the worlds
output of harvesting machines, is be-
| ing put into shape rapidly. All Of the
details have been arranged, and all OF
the various plants are now the proper
| ty of the International Harvester
| Company
| The amount raised for financing the
| Company was $65, 100000, half of which
lis to be devoted to the paying off OF
minority stockholders in the companies
merged, the balance to form the work
ling capital of the big corporation
Cyrus Mccormick is the heaviest in
dividual stockholder, with William
Deering ranking second. There is no
official news being given out as to the
future, but 1t is generally believed
that the working contract went intoe
feet Sept. 1. The Milwaukee Harves-
ter Company's staff has been reduced
one fourth.
Although the stock of the new COM
pany will be offered for sale, there is
no intention of listing it on any eX-
change. In this particular the new
Icompay will follow out to certain
extent the exclusiveness which has
ALWAYS marked the progress and man
agement of Harvester companies. The
general price of havesters and bind
ers will be raised to $125 or therea-
bouts. Last year one or two of the
firms in the combine sold these ma
chimes for less than $1O0.
1t is figured that the earnings of the
new concern for the initial year, end
ing Sept. 1, will be in excess of 40 per
cent on the capital stock, taking the
business of all of the companies for
the previous year as a basis. The
intention at present is to pay 12 per
cent. annually, and the balance over
and above dividends will go into the
surplus.
In its financial aspect the company
is The strongest corporation in the
United States. Plans for conduct
ing the business on economical lines
are already under way. In it's gen
eral agents" department the force will
be reduced from 800 to 20. effecting
a saving of at least 100000 annually.
The new concern has little to fear in
the way Of opposition. 1t controls the
right on harvesting patents, which
will not expire for many years. Tho
principal reason for acquisition of the
Milwaukee plant was principally in
the valuable patents controlled by it.
AT present the companies interested
are apparently acting Independently
