NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Last weeks
ket was carried forward in the new
week today in a manner to impress
sentiment with the power and re-
sources embarked in the movement
and the strength of the conditions on
which 1t was based. Realizing sales
were very heavy. The most important
addition to the general causes ac-
countable for the recovery in stocks
was the publication since Saturday of
the statistics of the country's foreign
trade for September. The small ex-
cess Of import over expert values
which had resulted from the varying
operations of the first eight months of
the calendar year Is transformed by
the results of the single month of
September, which piled up a favor
able trade balance of $51, ,587, ,079. The
significance of the showing was some
what marred by the large part played
by the record exports of cotton In
making the result.
Assumption remained mistaken that
a foremost New York private banking
house was the principal influence in
furthering the rise in prices. This as
sumption includes that of wide
spread market organization and fos-
tering and protecting measures for the
money market, as well as the move
ment of stock prices. especially United
States Steel That stock again alb
sorbed practically one-quartar of the
total dealings, keeping up the ratio
covered by the whole of last weeks
transactions.
Time money rates were firmer in
New York and the private discount
rate rose in London. The call money
market here was easier, with the
passing of Saturdays dividend re-
quirements
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $3,4S6,000. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

Los Angeles.
CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-with the exception of an
extremely brief period at the opening. when
wheat was Hc higher than Saturdays close,
the tendency today was steadily downward.
Rains in Argentine, an unexpected large In
crease in the visible supply and a very poor
call for cash wheat combined to weaken values
today. There was steady absorption OF wheat
on a scale down, but it apparently in part
at least, was to take profits on wheat sold
higher up. Nebraska wheat will be sold to
come here, the first of the crop. Minneapolis
has diverted Nebraska to Chicago, and st.
Louis reports consgnments Of wheat there
from a part of Nebraska that has heretofore
been shipping to Minneapolis. statistically the
situation is heavy and the only question is
whether the buying power under the market is
sufficiently strong to stay the decline pending
a cash demand which is not in evidence yet
Corn prices further drifted down to the low
last twenty four hours prevailed throughout the
corn belt and led to selling both by discour-
aged longs and by short sellers. Country sold
only moderately. but demand for corn for
shipment to consumers has been SLIM that
cash prices are off &c.
Oats were fully weak other grains.
December oats went int othe 20s today, level
that has not been seen in this market in many
years. Considerable selling today for country
account
Provisions were weak during the early hours,
recovering later. Weakness was because OF
large run Of all sorts of live stock at the yards,
weaker grain list and more or less ham,
packers bought later and the market re-
spOnded.

Honest John" Shafroth is no
bigger than his party; his two
bit campaign expense bill" is no
bigger and no smaller than the
rest of his sacred paramounts. Man
and measure are of the same cali
Der.
When Corporation Attorney SAT-
roth accepted the nomination for
head of his party ticket two years
ago he was acting in double
handed manner. He pretended to
be Patterson reformer, whereas
he had just stepped from the Of
flee of the water company and &C
cepted the nomination for governor
at the request of this and allied
corporations. Two weeks ago GER
tain of the Denver corporations
went to his rescue when he was
about to be beaten for renomina-
ton and saved the day for him.
because he is ever and always
will be, a handy man for the cor
porations to have In the executive
charlie can mouth as loudly as
q demagogue without doing ser
ious damage to the case of his
clients.
Ii Shafroth had been honest,
politically. and really desired any
reforms in the laws. he would
not have waited until this late
day to demand of the legislature
that It fulfill its alleged platform

gether the body fifteen months ago.

The last republican legislature
effected q settlement of the So
called outstanding debts Of the
state at 100000 and called for a
vote on q constitutional amend
ment to that effect. The people
voted 1t down and elected a demo-
cratic Legislature. The democrats
are now asking the people to vote
them $2.300.00O to pay the same
debts. On that one isem alone
the cost to the state OF q demo-
cratic legislature has been $500,
900.

Shafroth's "uxtry' Is now enter
ing upon its ninth week and has
been spending about $4,000 per
week. One bill besides the ap-
Precipitation to pay its own expens-
Is Is all il has given the people.
and this bill is only for submitting
very doubtful experiment to
the people for their approval or
disapproval. The worst feature
u that the governor knew when
he called 1t together that this
would be all 1t could do.s but he
was willing to spend this $150.00o
of the states money In order to
force his own denomination.

should give this ticket hearty and
enthusiastic support and help to
insure its election BY big major

the lowest taxes In this section OF
the country. just republican is all
that Is necessary.
