Fixing In 2O1O

From Hudson Maxim in Leslie's. There will still be the webwork of iron rails and the mad rush of the express train laundering along the earth, while the night sky will be made meteoric by luminescent, cloud-racing craft, with
 their fast-fiashing signal lights.
 We shall not have to wait hundred years for the stanch, wind-defying flying machine with automatic equilibration
 Very soon automobilng of the air will
 De as safe as automobiling upon the earth now Is.
 Neither shall we have 10 wait hun dred years for that spectacular eventua-
 tion--a fight between aerial navies. for these are bound to come with a sudden
 rush of wings.
 In the next great war, over the roar of
 battle below, there will speed to the con
 f1ict a tornado of flying machines, air
 craft against air craft, in a strange
 demoniacal encounter, while the combat ants below will be assailed by the falling wreckage of friend and foe alike. There will be new and strange guns and strange missiles in that conflict. and there will be fearful maneuvers between contending craft In their attempts to out race and override each other for advan. tage of position and to bring their in. struments of mutual destruction into ac. ton. There will be pelnty of room for ths | skill and daring of many Paulhan many Bleriot, many a Curtiss. We ol the twentieth century hardly realize tho privilege which is given us to watch ths evolution of the airship.

WHEAT IS ALMOST ID
 NINETY CENT MARK
Lowest Prices for the Year Are
 Reached in Trading
SELLERS ARE ACTIVE
The Fine Weather Neutralizes Much of Bullish Sentiment in Corn Which Drops-Onts Are Lower nnd
 Provisions Irregular

Chicago, October 29.-Lowest prices of the year were reached in the wheat market today just before the close. All though the Monday showing of world shipments. promises to be somewhat less burdensome than had been pre- viously counted upon the dead weight of the expected total badly discour- aged holders. Final quotations were 1h@1Ac lower than last night. Other grains suffered in sympathy, corn be- Ing pulled down 4 @ Sc and oats ss Q 1c. Provisions at the finish ranged from 10c advance to 12hc decline.
 Wheat values in foreign markets were generally lower, there was nc export business, and cable bids were entirely out of line. Revised estimates of world shipments for the week de veloped uncertainty as to Russia, from which country, however, the forward ings were believed to be heavy. The visible supply in the United States. too gave signs of a small Increase. For ex- ample, receipts at Chicago this week were 5000 bushels more than were shipped out.
 Confronted by such circumstances selling pressure grew from small be- ginning early to large proportions as the session approached an end. There was liquidation from owners big and little all the way down, one house selling out more than million bushels Finally stop-loss transactions had g complete monopoly of the pit. Decem- Der ranged from 90N @921sc and closed within a shade of the bottom for the day at 9o94 Q90Nc. net loss of as @11ac.
 Fine weather neutralized much oi the bullish sentiment in the corn mar ket The influence of the weakness ir wheat, though, was the chief factor In pricc-making. December sold be- tween Acc and 469.c. closing a4c of at 46c. Feeling in the cash trade was weak. No. 2 yellow closed at 49q 491ac.
 Oats were relatively steady most oi the day but at the last succumbed with corn and wheat. December varied from S1c to 31ss @S11sc and finished asc net lower at 31c.
 After scoring little gain early provisions turned weak with the grair list. Latest figures showed pork 10e higher to 12Rc down; lard 71ac up tc Dc decline, and ribs at loss of 2h @5c.

SHARP BREAK IS
 MADE IN COTTON Prices Are Most Affected By High Crop Estimate EARLY DEMAND IS GOOD Winfry Weather Helps Market on the Opening But an Estimate of Crop of 12,000,00O BaIes Causes
 the Decline
EARLY DEMAND IS GOOD

New York, october 2s.-The cotton mar ket today was dominated by increasing crop estimates and there was a violent break in prices with the close easy at a
 net decline of 5 points on October and 21 to S3 points on other months. The mar
 ket opened steady at a decline of 3 to 9 points under liquidation and bear pres
 sure following reports that prominent
 southern crop expert, who has been trav-
 cling through the belt during the entire
 growing season, estimated the yield at F, CO., 600 bales.
 Al nrst there was a good demand. Cables were better than due the weather
 in the south proved quite as wintry as
 had been forecasted yesterday. the com
 pleted weekend figures Justified yester-
 days bullish views of immediate statis-
 tics and reports from manufacturing cir
 cles showed thaa mills were rapidly re-
 suming full time. These factors probably inspired bull support and right after the opening the market rallied to about the closing figures of last night
 Offerings continued very heavy. how
 ever and while leading bulls were credit
 ed with buying fully 3o,ooO bales of March
 around 4oc in an effort to hold prices,
 the market soon broke wide open, be- coming almost demoralized after II o'clock. when January contracts sold off
 to 14.o5c and March to 14.13c, or 32 to 37
 points under the closing figures of last night
 Last prices were little up from the 1 lowest on covering but 1t seemed evident | that the large estimates of the crop were completely overshadowed, bulllsh consid- | erations for the time being, and senti-
 ment after the close was extremely ner- vous.
 It is said in local circles that the au- | thority making the estimate of F, 600, ,00O bales was very close to the crop last year, and has made fairly accurate esti-
 mates, as crop estimates go, for the past
 several seasons. The estimate of 12, 500, ,0oC
 bales is about 2000,00O bales above esti-
 mates circulating a month ago and prob-
 ably effects considerable change in
 average views of the crop during the
 past two or three weeks

Outbid
From Spare Moments.

From Spare Moments. A clergyman was very annoyed to find
 that an old gentleman, accompanied sby a boy, fell asleep on two consecutive Sun days during the sermon. So, after ser
 vice on the second week, he told the boy.
 whom he rightly guessed to be the old gentlemans grandson. that he wished to speak to him in the vestry. My boy" asked the clergyman, when they were cioseted together, "who is that
 elderly gentleman you attend church
 with?"
 Grandpa" was the reply. "Well,' said the clergyman, If you will only keep him awake during my sermon I'll give you a penny each week." | The boy fell in with the arrangement, and for the next two weeks the old gen. tleman listened attentively to the ser
 mon The third week. however, found him soundly asleep. The clergyman, very angry, called the boy to him and said: 'I am very angry with you; your grand pa was asleep again today. Didn't I promise you penny week to keep him l awake?"
 Yes replied the boy. "but grandpa
 now gives me twopence not to disturb him."

STOCK MARKET IS
 QUIET AND LOWER
Prices Are Unfavorably Af- fected By Action of Banks
LOANS ARE RESTRICTED
Banks Is Heavy and Hns Caused More Rapid shrinkngc
 of Deposits

New York, October 29.-The tone of the market was affected today by the attitude of the banks toward borrowers. The show of ease in the call money market is thought to be deceptive and due to the desire of lenders to keep resources avail able for prompt recall, in expectation of higher rates. The. supplies offered to lend on time are scanty and the mar ket for commercial paper Is thin. The drain on the cash holdings of the banks to meet interior demands causes a more rapid rate of shrinkage in deposits than in loans and broadens the excess of loans over deposits.
 The placing of $100OO,000 of one-year AZ per cent Michigan Central notes in Paris had an unfavorable influence on senti- ment although indicating possible re- source for current needs The high rate paid, however and the short term of the obligation are taken to reflect dis satisfaction by the borrowers with the terms, and a hope that more favorable conditions may be looked for at a later period The reappearance of the short term railroad note and the existing ex- cess of bank loans over deposits make combination distasteful to financial sen timent.
 The London money market showed re- taxation and sentiment there was bright CT with the promise of an inflow of gold to the Bank of England. The easier tone fin the foreign exchange market in New York was ascribed to the action of the money market in part and to the effect of the sale of Michigan Central notes in Paris.
 The approach of the last week of the political canvass makes for speculative restraint and depression through rumors of sudden and sensational development which might threaten a violent shift in the probability of results.
 There was less than the estimated de- crease in cash traceable in the bank statement, but 1t outran the reduction in the reserve requirement. secured by the loan contraction and the scaling down Of deposits, and resulted in inroad of over $1,000,000 on the surplus item.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value. s709,000
 United States bonds were unchanged on call from last week.

New orlean. Cotton Market

New Orleans. October 2e.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady, to 10 points down as the result of bear pressure. Liverpool was considerably higher than expected and the weather map indicated that the cotton belt was experiencing one of the coldest spells in its history, the time of the year considered, but manipulative tactics were resorted to by the bears in order to prevent the advance that ordinar- fly would take place on these features After the call the market was nervous and undecided. A very fair demand sprung up from shorts, who were not dis posed to carry their holdings over the week end and the leading shorts had to supply this inquiry well as that from longs just coming in to the market on the strength of the cold wave. At the end of the first half hour of business the trading months were to 10 points under yesterdays close
 Pressure on the market increased as the session grew older. The gossip of the floor said that selling orders were com ing principally from several spot houses noted for their bearish tendencies. A crop estimate of 12. 100000 bales was issued dur ing the morning and much capital was made out of it by the leading bears, all though the majority of local traders crit icised 1t as part and parcel of the manip- ulation for a fall in prices going on. With futures down around the 14c level many stop loss orders were reached on the long side Of the market, which in- creased the weak feeling. Toward noon prices ware 25 to 3s points under yester-

Hubbard Bros. .S Co.'S Letter

New York, October 29.-(Special.)-A killing frost covered practically the en- tire cotton belt this morning, bringing about an advance in Liverpool, but brought few buying orders here. The controlling factor was the crop estimate of yield of 12.600,00O bales made by MT. Cordell, who has been remarkably cor rest in his estimates for several years, based on his careful inspection of the cotton fields for months past. This esti- mate was recognized as increased to tho figures by the remarkable growing weather since the middle of August, and is followed on the same lines by the re- ports of the Journal of Commerce. There was an early demand to hold the market, ouying March around l4.40c, but the flood of long selling broke prices some 30 points. We hardly expect Liverpool to break so badly on Monday.
