Begs for Ferry Ticket

Graves arrived at the ferry depot at
o'clock yesterday morning In a dazed
condition and first attracted attention
by begging for a ferry boat ticket,
stating that he had lost his pocketbook
and would pay later for the ticket
This the ticket seller refused to do.
Policeman Casey, on watch at the
depot. observed the unusual appearance
of the man and accosted him. but
Graves could give no clear account of
himself and Casey assisted him TO the
harbor hospital. HIS wounds were
dressed and early yesterday morning he
was taken TO his home in Oakland He
fell into a deep stupor at the hospital
while the surgeons were dressing his
wounds, but rallied later when an un-
successful attempt was made to solve
the mystery.
Professor Graves has occupied chair
in the Oakland high school for about
10 years. He was formerly professor
of Latin and recently was made head
of the department of languages. He
is widely known On this coast as a

COTTON MARKET
 STILL CLIMBING. Though There Was a Slight
 Decline During Day NEW HIGH RECORDS While There Seems To Be No Az gressive Support From Bulls Strength Comes From South
 ern and Western Buying.
NEW HIGH RECORDS

New York, November 1.-An early de- cline in the cotton market was followed by sharp advance in the afternoon, with all active months making new high rec ords for the season during the late trad ing, and with the close firm at a net ad- vance of to % points.
 At the opening sentiment in favor of a reaction was encouraged by the weak ness of Liverpool and talk of unsettled conditions in some of the southern spot markets, but after starting at a decline of to 12 points and selling Il to 13 points net lower on active months, the market steadied
 There seemed to be no aggressive sup port from the recognized bull leaders, but offerings were remarkably well absorbed by what appeared to be a broadening outside demand. and during the afternoon the market became sensationally active and strong on buying by Chicago and Memphis houses and covering by early sellers. From 147Oc, January contracts sold up to 14.95c; March advanced from 14.82 c to 15.10c, and May from 14.S6c to 15.15c.
 
 points on the active positions, but there was heavy realizing; but last prices were within two or three points of the top. Southern spot markets officially reported early were generally unchanged, and these reports, following talk of an easier basis at some points, probably helped the advance. which was, however, more gen. erally attributed to covering by Liverpool short straddlers and activity among the mills, reflected in strong spot markets. The forecast called for frost in part of Texas. Temperatures over Sunday were about reasonable. The New York mar ket will be closed tomorrow, but Liver pool and New Orleans will be open. Receipts at the ports today were 62. 102 bales, against 65,473 last week and 57sS3 last year; for the week, 100000 bales, against 4S,51 last week and 4s5,s09 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans were 7o01 bales, against 1O,237 last year.

TRADE |S LANGU|D
 IN WALL STREET Operations Are of Exceedingly 0esultory Character ALL SAINTS HOLIDAY In Europe and Elections in New York Tomorrow Have Visible Effect on Stock Market-Copper
 Quotation.
 

New York, November 1.-Operations in stocks today were of an exceedingly des- ultory character, and interest in the market was very languid. The one day of business intervening before the elec- ton day holiday had a deterrent effect on the traders, and there was no partlci- patton in the market. The observance of the All-Sants' holiday in London and Paris also subtracted materially from the volume of the days business, and de- prived the market of an index of senti- ment on the international money outlook, which is much relied on at present. The money markets proper sent encouraging news from abroad, and this was a prime factor in the early rise in prices of stocks here.
 There was some selling on Saturday on the apprehension that the Imperial Bank of Germany would advance It's official discount rate today and the fact that the rate was left undisturbed prompted some covering of shorts by those sellers. The weekly statement of the German bank disclosed some heavy nroads on resources, incident to the November set dement's, and the private discount rate in Berlin rose fraction.
 The Bank of England secured all of the s3.5O0.OOO South African gold arriving in the London market without competiton' and at further recession In price, which wipes out, in effect, the recent premium over the obligatory price to be paid by the bank which has prevailed while other centers were competing for London's gold supply. This was looked upon as gratifying evidence of the sat isfactory progress of the recuperation In the Bank of England, which was insisted upon by the board of governors.
 The effect was helpful to the New York stock market. notwithstanding the ab- sence of direct operations in the local stock market on behalf of London. There was a striking diversion of speculative effort to low-priced industrial stocks and specialties, while the more prominent trading stocks were neglected. The minor members of the steel group, especially the railroad equipment stocks, were conspic- uous.
 Something was made of the reports of large sales of copper metal within the last few days, but the copper industrials did not hold well, and sagged with the receipt of copper quotations from Lon don showing decline in prices. The spec ulation looked somewhat askance at the terms announced for the new Pennsyl- vania stock issue, which was at lower price than had been anticipated AS be- tween the increased value of the sub scription rights to the individual stock holders and the low credit for the corpor- ation involved in the issue at par Of . stock selling in the market in the neigh

WHEAT MARKET
 IS DEPRESSED An Array of Bearish News and
 Statistics NET LOSSES ARE SHOWN Large Wheat Movements From Rus sia Last Week Had Depressing Effect on Chicago Market.
 Provisions Are Weak.
NET LOSSES ARE SHOWN

Chicago, November 1.-An array of bear ish news and statistics depressed the wheat market here today, closing quota tions showing net losses of B to 5s0s4 cents. Coarse grain and provisions also were weak.
 The wheat market was inclined to weak ness almost all day, although slight rallies occurred at times on covering by shorts. The market closed weak at almost the lowest point of the day, the December closing at s1.0434, after selling between s1. 1.04ssQ1. .051s.
 One of the principal depressing factors was the almost record-breaking size of the wheat movements last week from Russia, total shipments being TIPS, GOO bushels, only 64,OOO- bushels short of the greatest amount ever shipped from that country in one week.
 Wet weather, which extended over a large portion of the corn belt caused con. siderable firmness in the corn market early in the session. The market weak ened during the final half hour, owing to liberal sales by influential bears. Prices at the close were almost at the lowest point, and at net declines of 14@ss to ss cents.
 Trading in oats was exceedingly quiet and prices moved over range of A cent {; cash interests were moderate sellers throughout the day. The close was easy with prices a shade to 1s@A cent lower than Saturdays final figures.
 Provisions were weak nearly all day. Lard showed especial heaviness. Local packers were among the leading sellers. Prices at the close were to 71a to 121a cents lower.

borhood of 14S, the appraisement of the operation was somewhat confused.
 The resort to a stock issue at all in place of a bond issue is testimony to the faulty investment demand for fixed inter est-bearing securities, which has been re- marked in the bond market throughout the later stages of the active speculative demand for stocks
 The per cent dividend rate now ex- erting on Pennsylvania railroad stock and left unchanged by the days decara- tion represents. if maintained, high rate to pay for new capital. The proceeds are to provide for the payment of S60,O00, 900 of collateral notes which bore 5 per cent. and of $2o0oo,0OO of per cent bonds falling due next year. The stock market tone became somewhat dropping after the news of the Pennsylvania directors action.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $3.393,000.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, November 1.-(Special.)- With the beginning of a new month the demand from spinners on call cotton ceased for the moment and Liverpool receeded sharply from the high point some to points. As in the past when ever liquidation begins it is arrested by aggressive support, Nsnch attracts new buyers at a quick advance, and then what has been purchased is distributed In the present excited condition of the market this proves to be further stim- ulant to purchasers and parties who would not buy on a lower conservative level are now anxious buyers at the highest prices in many years. So long as this buying continues the market will ad vance, though the adjustment of small crop to a reduced consumption Is has tened by such markets where every one tries to be long in one shape or another, while the consumer is being forced into opposition for a longer period by reason of a lessened demand
 In short, the market continues to pre- sent the usual typical bull market at what has been in the past dangerous prices. Liverpool should advance to Il points tomorrow.
