DECLINE SHOWN IN
 THE WHEAT MARKET
Close Firm 5-S to 7-8c Lower Alleged Peace Proposals
 Responsible

Chicago, October 2--Wheat took a dowl. turn today, mainly because of all leged peace proposals to Turkey. The close. though firm, was sscQ7sc lower than Saturday night. Latest trading left corn varying from s4o off to shade ad- vance; oats Bc down and provisions at a decline of Dc to 421ac.
 Active selling of wheat began at the first tap of the bell. Bears were az gressive and bulls discouraged. owing to a break at Liverpool due to peace talk. Tn addition, world shipments made huge total and there has been heavy move ment of wheat to terminal points in the United States, especially northwest.
 Rallying power showed itself to a slight extent as a result of big clearances. A radical increase in the visible supply. however, prevented a return of anything resembling enthusiasm on the buying side. Flattering crop advices from Argen- tina figured also against the bulls. De- cember ranged from s2Ac to 929sc, with last sales Tso net lower at 92ssd921hc.
 Fine weather and the wheat set back depressed corn early but the market afterward became firmer when selling dis played no vim. December huctuated be- tween 53%e and 5sssc closing steady a shade net higher. Cash grades were easy No. yellow was quoted at 6419d64se.
 Resting orders that absorbed most Of the offerings held the price of oats steady. Upper and lower levels reached for De- cember were S21ac and S2sss. The close at the last named figures meant a loss of lsc net.
 Heavy receipts of hogs west pulled down provisions. Despite covering of shorts, the outcome was an all around de- cline, pork 35637isc, lard. 5c to 15c, and ribs, Dc to 17M120c.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, October 8.-(Speoial )-To the surprise of the trade the spnners appeared as buyers on the decline In response to the lower Liverpool advices this morning. Their buying, In the shape of calling cotton, finally caused the mar ket to advance some 12 points over the close of Saturday. Undoubtedly the atti- tude of the large spot houses has had an influence upon the outside traders. who feel that possible the large crop esti- mates have had their effect upon prices, and that from now on the controlling factor may be the conditions of trade Certainly the positive conviction of fortnight ago that a lower market was almost sure, has to n large extent dis appeared. That Europe has bought moro freely than any one thought, possible. is shown by the large exports. Liverpool is due to come about points higher to- morrow.

|. 5. STEEL LITTLE MORE THAN STEADY Early Weakness in Stocks Dissipated Later in
 the Day

New York, Oct. 2S.-Weakness In the early part of the stock market was dis sipated later in the day, The weakness was due to such restraining influences as last Saturdays bank statement, the for eign war situation and alarm over decisioh by the United States supreme court. ih the afternoon when it became definleeiy known that the court would take no ac- ton on the several important cases now before 1t, the market more than gained lost ground noted at the start, but trans actions remained limited and professional In character to the end.
 Reading again was the most active issue with some inquiry for Hill and Harri- man shares, the grangers and few less important stocks. The tobacco group was conspicuous for it's wide Fluctuations and oil shares also manifested strength. United States Steel and coppers were little more than steady. The metal stocks were under moderate pressure, being held back by trade adviees which suggested price con- sessions. Earnings of the steel corpora ton for the third quarter of the year are to be published after the close of the market Tuesday Estimates range from s27.o0o,ooo to ss0,000.o0o but this flattering prospect seems to have been discounted.
 The most interesting feature of the set tlement in the London market where anxiety was plainly visible was the higher carry. over charges for Americans rang ing from 5i4@61s per cent Completion of the settlement is expected to show a marked decrease in foreign holdings of our securities. Prices in Paris reflected sluggishness and Berlin was again de- pressed by possible complications arising from the war in the Balkan peninsula. Call money rose to per cent here. an outcome of the depleted bank reserves, but most loans were made under that rate. Time money stiffened to per cent, the highest attained for the 60 days and 90-day periods for the year.
 There was little demand for the other favorites The bond market fluctuated narrowly on limited operations Total sales, par value, $1, ,690,000. United States registered 3s advanced f per cent on call.

SHARP ADVANCE IN
 COTTON MARKET Southern Spot Advices Con- tinue to Indicate Good
 Demand

New York, October 2S.--An early de-
 cline was followed by quite a sharp
 advance in the cotton market today
 on trade buying and covering, with
 the close very steady at net gain
 of from to 12 points. The market
 opened barely steady at a decline of
 2 to points and active months sold
 g to 10 points net lower right after the
 call under scattering liquidation and
 local bear pressure inspired by easier
 cables than looked for and reports of good weather In the south over Sun
 day There was also some selling here by houses with Memphis connections, but the offerings were readily ab- sorbed by spot house brokers and the
 market soon turned steadier. The daily predictions for unsettled conditions followed by lower temperatures in the western belt tended to confirm the official weekly forecast. indicating frost for the belt during the middle of the week and this undoubtedly added to the confidence of early buyers Re- ports of a mere cable turn In the Bal kan situation wore also factor and the market soon became irmer with prices working up from the lowest on covering by early sellers and con- | tinued demand from trade sources. Realizing was heavy enough to check the upward movement from time to | tune, but reactions were comparatively l limited and the market reached the l Lest point in the late trading when January contracts sold at 10.7sc, or about 23 points above the low level of the morning. Closing prices were or 1 3 points off from the best under real l zing. Southern spot advices continue | to indicate good demand and steady l interior markets. and 1t was reported here that spinners had been calling cotton freely both In Liverpool and in the local markets.
