UNDERLYING TRADE
Lively Export Call on Chi
cago Board, With Similar
Condition in Market for
Corn.

CHICAGO, Nov. 7.--wheat was ner-
vous today. prices keeping within rather
narrow limits. Speculative trade was
comparatively light There was an ex-
cellent export call here and at q number
OF other points. Underlying sentiment
was bullsh. affected by the persistent
demand from abroad. It was asserted
tempted to fill buying order for 1000, =
600 bushels here, at Minneapolis and at
Kansas City Prices in the northwest
ruled comparatively strong. Cash sales
were 525,OOO bushels Futures closed sc. to
sc. higher.
Corn was dull in speculative way
but there was an excellent export call
and fair business was closed Offer
ings of old corn for prompt shipment are
far below the demand. Country sales of
new to arrive are the smallest ever
known at this season, largely due to
the new Government grading and to the
expectations of producers of a large de-
mand later. Cash sales were 1896, 900
bushels, Futures closed Il to &c. higher.
Oats kept within a narrower range of
prices relatively than other grains. Tho
market closed strong. There was a re-
vival in the Eastern domestic call, and
some significant inquiries on foreign ac-
count. Cash sales were 10000 bushels.
Futures closed u to Fsc, higher.
In provisions covering of a large specu-
lative line of shorts was completed early,
profit taking on the bulge resulted in
quite a reaction. AT the decline the alb

STOCK PRICES HERE
SHOW UP VERY WELL
IN LIMITED TRADING
In Some Instances Trans
actions Have Been Made
Above Minimum Figure
Established by Exchange
Committee.

Present prices of local stocks sold under
the jurisdiction Of the Special Commit
tee Of Five of the Philadelphia Stock Ex-
change are, in some instances, slightly
above the minimum price at which the
committee will allow sales, and, in some
few cases, they are above the price at
which the stock closed on July 30, tho
last day on which the Exchange was
open.
Brokers report that in many instances
when the minimum price established by
the committee Is bid for a stock, sales
are not made because the holder does
not care to part with his security at the
price, and holds off in the hope that prices
may be better later on. This has occurred
in several instances in Reading, the mimi
mum price of which is 60.
Since trading was resumed under the
direction of the special committee many
companies have declared dividends, and
these have been taken off the minimum
price. In the case of the Pennsylvania
Railroad two dividends have been de-
clared since the Exchange closed, both
of which have been taken of
other stocks on which the dividend has
been deducted from the minimum price
are Philadelphia Electric, Cambria Steel,
Electric Storage Battery, General Asphalt
preferred, Lehigh Navigation, Philadel-
phia Traction, United Gas Improvement
Tonopah Belmont and Tonopah Mining.
The following table gives the closing
prices of some of the active stocks listed
on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange as
of July 30, the minimum price at which,
II is understood, the Special Committee
of Five will allow sales, and, where II

THE price of cotton seed on October
1 to producers was about s15.25 per ton;
a year ago the price was about $23 ton.

SHORT TERM BONDS
ACTIVE AND STRONG
DURING LAST WEEK
Many High-class Issues
Traded in on a 5 Per Cent.
Basis - Election Results
Had Favorable Effect.

General satisfaction was expressed in
financial circles today over the volume
Of business transacted during the last
week. Short-term bonds were active and
strong, with many Of the higher class is
sues traded In on a per cent. basis, while
the new New York city issues advanced
to new high records, the three-year
notes solling at 10S%, or on 40 basis,
while the one-year notes we're traded in
at 1914, or on a Ae0 basis, These notes
were taken only short time ego by the
bank syndicate on a per cent. basis,
with exchange at e, the banks and city
70 share in any profit from exchange
operations exceeding S2,000,000.
Since then the demand sterling has
Yielded to around A.9O and would have
been established far below that rate II
h were not for the new rules regarding
eontraband promulgated by the British
Government. Money has been established
ON q per oent. basis for both call and
time loans In New York and Is In tree
supply.
Election results had much to do with
tho developmant OF strength which was
recorded between Monday and Friday In
these three business days advances were
recorded In all the issues In which there
~ aoIN9 luLSIbSN
Dealings In listed stocks both on the
curb and over the counter became more
extensive, with United States Steel COM
mon moving UP from Il to 49h. Proper
tionate gains were made in other Issues
but this morning listed stocks were lower
in New York, United States Steel being
offered at 43ik, with the supply apparently
coming from some important sources. This
confirmed the view that satisfaction over
election results is not enough to sustain
any display of strength, but that some
development of moro substance is neces-
snry to act as an incentive for main
tained, Improvement, both in security val
ues and business prospects.
Copper metal at the beginning OF the
week was in good demand around 11lac,
but the embargo placed on exports
checked the buying movement, and at the
weekend sales were hard to effect at
Ike.
Standard OIL issues, which had been
heavy until yesterday, have improved ma
teriaily and advances of 3 to cents were
noted today In Prairie Oil, Standard Oil Of
California and many other of these
shares.
