several days the cattle situation has been very
dull, with Il weaker tendency, but after hard
work statesmen have been reasonably successmul
i'm maintaining prices in almost a steady pos
sition for what they could sell. A good many
have been carried over from day to day. and
this, OF course, did not indicate a healthy trade.
Other markets nave been reporting semi-demor-
allied conditions, and this has finally had its
effect here. The opening to-day was very DUH.
with apparently no demand for any kind OF
cattle. Buyers were Indifferent and declared
that they must have concessions in prices for
all kinds IL they bought any. Their argument
was too strong to be misunderstood by sellers.
who rather early in the day We're trying to sell
as many cattle as possible and at the best prices
they could get. 1t was generally estimated that
sales in no case were less than 10c lower than
yesterday. and it was not uncommon to hear
of a decline ranging from 15c to 25c. In their
low position, however, a decline of 10c to 15c
in prices now means a great deal more than
when cattle sell at 81 per 100 lbs higher. and in
reality a decline now Of 10c to 15c somet.~es
does not figure up more than 5G10c. There was
some inquiry for practically all kinds of cattle
equal to the supply. and it was impossible to
make a good clearance. The close was exceed
ingly quiet, and statesmen are fearful Of a con-
tinued dull trade for several days. Quotations.:

PRIVATE WIRE ADVICEs.
Entire ' stock List Broke, Led by
United States Steel Corporation.
Meyer & Kiser, Indianapolis

Z YORK. Nov. Binder the leadership of
the Steel stocks the entire list broke in the stock
market to-day and developed extreme weakness.
For a time the market bordered on demoraliza-
ton, and there seemed TO be no support of any
kind. Few stocks on the list escaped pressure
or withstood the drive against prices. The rail-
road list held its own for a time, but in the
closing hour these stocks sold down also. Mis-
souri, Pacific was the weakest stock in the rail-
roads. and a tip circulated in the early part of
the session was fully verified. The selling of
that issue was considered good. Losses of from
a point to more than two points were made
throughout the list in the railroad list. Such
stocks as Atchison. Union Pacific. Rock Island,
Pennsylvania, New York Central and ST. Paul
showed some resistance TO pressure, but not suf-
fcent to hold their prices fully.
All sorts of rumors concerning the Steel stocks
were going the rounds Of the street. 1t devel-
oped this afternoon that steel billets were re-
duced. The preferred stock was under special
pressure all day, and the common stock also es-
tablished a new low record. Amalgamated Cop
per was weak on a reduction. in the price of the
metal. The allied steel and iron stocks Were af-
fected alphabetically with the break in United
States Steel. The traction stocks suffered with
the general list. Sentiment is intensely bearish,
and adverse developments in the steel outlook
are expected. More gold imports are probable.

OF THE RAIsERS HIN

Small Decline in Refined Sugar
Light Grain Markets.

With the approach OF Thanksgiving and the
holidays the poultry market is attracting more
attention. Commission merchants say an i'm
preston prevails among poultry raisers that
there is a scarcity of some lines, especially
turkeys. and that later In the season higher
prices viii prevail One OF the largest poultry
dealers In Boston was In the city yesterday.
He has been visiting the various markets in
the Wet and says he finds that the farmers
who raise turkeys base their ideas on the con-
dition OF the market a year ago. Turkeys sold
very low early, but when the holiday season
came CD they sold at much higher figures. The
farmers think the same result will follow IL
they sell their poultry at the present time and
present prices. He thinks this Is a mistake. as
the country is well supplied with turkeys.
ducks and chickens. and he does not look for
higher prices in the Eastern market than
those now prevailing Local dealers talk much
the same way. Eggs are firm at the advance

but not quotabiy higher. Should the weather
turn cold slightly higher prices may be looked
for. Or Commission row there was a good
movement OF fruit and vegetables. An impress
sion prevails that cooler weather is at hand
and the retail merchants are stocking Ut with
potatoes and fruits. Wholesale grocers report
their business as excellent. quite an improve

which was reduced 5 cents a hundred pounds
on refined grades at New York yesterday. Cof-
fees still have an advancing tendency. Flour.
while not quotably changed. is reported a
shade easier and concessions on choice nour Of
8 cents a barrel are said to have been made.
The export demand continues good and So long
as such Is the case local markets will retain

Low Record for Steel Stocks.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-There was some strength
early, but the market soon became dull and
weaker when 1t was known that the manufac-
turers of steel products were in session. The
market was a waiting affair until news of their
action was reported, near the close, when prices
declined sharply. Steel issues made the lowest
records since the company was inaugurated.
The common sold down to 1OS and the preferred
to below So. Tennessee Coal and Iron was sold
by the large Canadian holders. Car Foundry,
Pressed Steel and Colorado Fuel and Iron were
all sympathetically weak. In fact, the cut in
steel and iron, the barometers of prosperity, was
seriously felt throughout the entire list, and the
leading railway stocks sold down from one-half
to two points from last nights close. There was
no especial pressure TO sell outside of Steel is
sues, which appeared TO be genuine liquidation.
The close indicated somewhat lower prices to-
morrow, when many bargains will be obtainable.

December Premium Over May Wheat
Option Disappears at Chicago.
lAlbert r. Thompson &c Co.. Indiana

CAlbert r. Thompson &c Co, lndianapolis.1
CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 5.-The last vestige OF
n December premiuin over May disappeared to-
day. The December here got to Ac under the
May, compared with Nc premium last night.
There was the same tendency IN the other mar
kets. May showing strength and December some
weakness. The early weakness and the rela-
tive weakness of the December was largely on
the large Northwest receipts. The relative May
strength was on a general disposition TO cover
by those who had profits. There was more Of
a corn market to-day. Prices sold AH%c over
Wednesday and held about half OF IL. The spec
ulative feature was covering. There were con-
tinued reports of soft corn from illinois and the
West, reports OF farmers being compelled 10 go
over the corn in their cribs. Country offerings
were small, Shipping bids were a little under
the market, the asking price being &c higher
relatively. The cash oats market advanced NC
to &c. The futures were &c to sc higher. Oats
were Influenced by the corn strength. Lard was
firm, with good buying. Pork and ribs were
sold by packers and dragged somewhat. The
lard strength was on the c~onsumptive demand
and the expectation Is the stock here will be
cleared out here this month.

What Influenced the Market.


tAlDert X. thompson q Co., Indianapolis
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-To-day's stock market
was dominated by heavy selling of the steel
and iron shares under the leadership of the
stock Of the United States Steel Corporation.
London was a very heavy seller of the Steel
issues and there was also marked liquidation i'm
these shares, said to be for the account of a
former officer of that company. Traders sold
the list on the report that the price of steel bill
lets had been reduced. The announcement that a
strike of the coal miners in the Southwest was
inevitable was an unsettling influence and con-
tributed to the weakness in the Southwestern
group. Continued excitement i'm the cotton mar
ket, with higher prices, was regarded as a bad
feature, being based on very much reduced crop
estimates as a result OF deterioration.

sheep-Receipts. 400; shipments none. There
was quite a small supply of sheep and lambs
to-day, and, in fact. only about enough to ac-
commodate the normal requirements Of local
butchers and not enough to invite shippers into
the market. There was some inquiry from nearly
all regular local dealers, and the trading was
as active as could be expected at steady prices
compared with yesterday. In fact, some sales
appeared strong, but the quality was possibly
better. Lambs sold as high as $5.35, with me-
dunn to good kinds at s4.75@5.25 and culls as
low as SO. Yearling sheep sold as high as So so.

Hogs-Receipts. 4.5o0; shipments. 1000. There
was no perceptible change in the quality or con-

cases buyers were well satisfied. There are not
many prime heavy hogs coming, but those aver
aging 100 to $50 lbs, are good The market
opened with buyers bidding fully steady prices
compared with those prevailing at the close
yesterday, and there was more competition from
shippers than there has been for several days.
Statesmen were asking high prices, but il was
evident that packers would have to take most
of the supply, and they were not inclined to
pay any advance. 1t was soon agreed that
steady prices compared with yesterdays close
would be just to both buyers and sellers, and
on that basis the trading was finally active and
the supply was promptly changing hands. With
more favorable reports from other places and
indications that there would not be many late
arrivals here the market, after most of the sup
ply had been sold. developed a little more
strength, and subsequent sales were probably SC
higher than early. There were very few late
arrivals to-day: In fact. hardly enough to test
the full strength developed in the late market,
but the closing sales were generally considered
&c higher than early. A good clearance was
made and the market closed firm. Sales ranged
from Sass to $40. and the bulk of the supply
sold at s5q5.05. Quotations.:
