WHEAT CARRIED
 ID LOWER LEVEL Certainty of Huge Increase in Visible Supply Sends
 Grain Down

Chicago. November 4.--certainty of a high increase in the visible supply car ried the wheat market today to a lower level. The close was nervous at net decline of h41ec to zs@-c. Latest trading left prices of corn %@7s@1sc down. Oats down Apssc and provisions ranging from li5c down to 10c higher. Unrest about tho Turkish war gave wheat first an appear ance of strength and there was further bulish aid in reports of untimely wet weather m Argentinas s fields.
 Gradually the big accumulations at pri- mary centers since Friday began to tell, especially as the prospect was poor for exports. Although the visible supply to- tai was withheld. incomplete returns showed that the issue would be heavily in favor of the bears The gain in Chi- cago amounted to 72s, 900 bushels. As re- suit of hedging liquidation became tho order and brought the lowest close of the season. December ranged from SSa4 G9O1sc c. with last transactions 5sa1c down at s9c. Predictions that the favorite estimates would be raised 222,OOO bushels above the forecast issued by the government Octo- her | depressed corn. December ranged between 5oe and g0lse and 507se. closing easy 5olsA50Ac, a net loss of %4He. Cash grades were weak. No. yellow was 57@Ss1se in sympathy of oats.
 Oats held relatively steady; shorts thought bearish sentiment had grown too unanimous. Upper and lower limits touched for December were 51ssc and Sic. with the close 3lSc. a decline of Ssc net. Owing to corn weakness provisions broke late in the session after having ascended early. This was owing to a de- crease in stocks here and limited run of hogs. In the end pork and ribs av- eraged the same as Friday, but lard showed setback of 5@71sc to 12lac.

TRADING ALMOST
 AT STANDST|LL Extreme Apathy Marks Course of Operations.
 Call Money Drops

New York, November 4.-Extreme apathy marked the course of operations on the stock exchange today.
 For the greater part of the session trading was almost at standstill Some stocks, notably St. Paul and the Hill issues, were moderately strong at the start while most other leaders in the rails and industrials were heavy when not absolutely weak. Certain of the spec,alities, such as American beet sugar and American woolen whose affairs are largely depndent upon the tariff. re- corded severe losses, which were partly regained before the close. American Can and the Tobacco group as well as some of the minor stocks reflected, varying degrees of pressure.
 In the final hour when call money which opened at per cent. fell to 5 per cent and then s5a per cent. the en- lire list moved forward until most losses were retrieved.
 Lehigh valley, St. Paul, Union Pacific and steel led the rise while Great Northern and Northern Pacific added to early gains and Amalagamated, which had been among the heaviest of the leaders also recovered. There was some shading of prices toward the close. but the undertone was firm. Canadian Pacific was weakest of the Americans In London. There the trade was in- clined to sag over renewed complica- tions in the Balkan situation. While cali money aased appreoiabiy time periods hardened. 6 per cent being held for the longer terms.
 The bond market was narrow. Total sales, par value, $2,100,000. United States 2s declined 1s per cent on call and the registered 3s one quarter.

GLACIERS OF SOME GOOD
In Switzerland Moving Ice Lakes Are
 Quarried for Icehouses

From the Ohio State Journal.
 In Switzerland the quarrying of gla- icers is becoming an important industry Wherever a glacier can be connected by chutes with some place having good transportation facilities companies have been formed to carry on the business The French city of Lyons Is the most important consumer of this glacier ice, which, owing to it's purity and transpar- ency, commands higher price than that cut from lakes or rivers. The ice is
 blasted out of the glaciers by means of black powder which 1t has been found
 foes not discolor the ice as giant powder does
 The blocks have to be stored for some time in ice houses such as are used in this country. the sawdust filling the space between them, that a coat of frosted or non-transparent ice which covered the blocks after they have been removed from the glacier may be removed. Much
 ingenuity is shown in building the chutes which carry the blocks of ice down the mountain sides. In order to reduce the great velocity they would acquire were the chutes perfectly straight, curves are in- troduced here and there to impede it.

RETURNING TO THE ANCIENTs
Pigments of Ancient Nations Battling
 for Their Worthless Debris

From the Philadelphia Record.
 It Is curious to note how modern exf- gencies. such as the little spot between Italy and Turkey, bring the ancient world into the limelight again. Here Is the Is- land of Rhodes, which in the famous Colossus that once adorned it's harbor possessed one of the seven wonders of the world. dragged out of its long obscurity through it's occupation by an Italian fleet.
 Like everything else upon which the Turk has laid his yandal hand, both the Island and the city bearing the same name now enjoy but A shadow of their former population and prosperity: but 1t is not beyond the realms of possibility that, if the rule of tho Mosem can be permanently shaken off, these beautiful islands, so famed in history and poetry, may be again restored to something Of that commercial importance which once distinguished them.

Net Making in Holland

From the London Globe
 The manufacture of fishing, nets has for centuries been very important in- dustry in Holland. which in the 17th cen tury had fleet of over 2000 smacks en- gagged ip the herring fishery. The latest census of the industry shows that there is one fishing net factory at Schevening- en. where the first factory was estab- lished. with about 10 hands; one at Apel- doorl. with about 250 hands; two at Goor, of which one is also a cotton mill with about e30 hands; one at Leyden, with about 30 hands, and one at Gouda with about 90 hands.
 Those at Scheveningen, Goor and Ley den make chiefly nets for the herring fish, cry in the North Sea. The Apeldoorn fac tory makes all sorts of fishing nets and lines. both for the anchovy and sardine fisheries and for the herring and mack erel fisheries The Gouda factory makes all sorts of fishing nets and lines. At Sneek there Is rope yard which mounts and finishes nets for games as we'll as for fishing purposes. and there are net works at Maassluis and Katwijk. In addition to the large factories there are many small ones where hoop nets and fishing tackle are made by haQd.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, November 4-(SpeclaI)- While our market was closed the cold weather brought freezing temperatures over the greater portion of the cotton belt.
 This news. together with the belief that victory of the Bugarians meant peace in short time, stimulated the demand in Europe. so that Liverpool advanced with great rapidty. So sharp was the ad- vance that our trade accepted 1t as signal for taking profits and in some instances going short on the theory that all of the bulllsh news was out and that a re- action was in order.
 This heavy selling kept the market in check until the last hour, when 1t closed firm at nearly the best prices of the day. After the close the southern markets advanced still further, while here the trade have sold for a recation.
