Hay and Feedstuffs

The hay situation is thus given in the cir
cular of Scott, Magner & Miller:
4I00 tons. Large quantities have been rushed
in from the river banks and these arrivals have
constituted the larger part of the above amount.
Arrivals by railroads have been moderate for
the last 10 days.
ssThe general demand for horse hay is decid-
edly moderate. The market has been heavy.
dull and thoroughly unsatisfactory to the selling
interests; The warehouses are being broken
into and consisnments being sent forward to
this market from storage. Such hay is selling
here unsatisfactory, and at figures that do not
carry the costs of warehOuSing. The single
exception to this general condition is for fancy
wheat hay. which has commanded top quo
tatiOn. although very little comparatively Of
sell slowly and a really lower basis than has
prevailed at any time this season.
There is not much probability of a better
condition of affairs in sight for the future
for the general hay market in central California.
No confidence Is apparent that any better basis
of values may be reached. Feed grains are
high. and the consumer is thoroughly adverse TO
being compelled to pay any further advance
Alfalfa hay has been heavy fsetor in the
arrivals during the week. as large quantities

sales to millers, although totaling large
amount. did not hold the market. nor did tidings
that Minneapolis wheat in store today totaled
24O0 600 bushels, compared with 10,000,000 a
year ago.

closed sss at SloS% oe ;e9h oesA and o,o.o,
s1.06h and July opened at 9912c, closing at
99%c.
The corn market heavy, due to consider
able pressure and the influence of the downward
wheat market. There little fuctuation and
the range was narrow, closing figures being Il q
sc lower.
Oats prices kept within an extremely narrow
range December and May closing 14c and July

CONFIDENCE IN
MONEY MARKET

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-The stock mar.
ket today showed the effect Of large
reduction of outstanding short interest
which has occurred in connection with
the rapid and substantial recovery in
prices the latter part of the week.
While the showing of the bank state
ment was not known until after the stock
market had closed, the increased conf
dence over the money market position
which made itself felt yesterday was not
altered This feeling was partly due to
hope of a more accommodating spirit to-
ward American borrowers on the part Of
London money lenders. 1t is believed that
the London money market is more So
licitous TO stop the on its gold sup
plies from other quarters than to obstruct
the credit operations the part of the
American borrowers.
The bank statement indicated the ope-
ration of occult forces for which there
was no explanation in the known move
ments of money for the week. The actual
gain in cash is reported at $2,74o, 700, IN
face of an estimated outgo of six or seven
million dollars. The report Of other banks
outside the clearing house does not ex-
plain the discrepancy.
Neither have the local trust companies
assisted in relieving the loan account of
the local banks. as is seen by the $685.
EOS 500 loans increase reported by those
institutions.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales (par
value). S1.6s4 900.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call from last week.
