GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, November S0.-Belated
covering by shorts forced a steep ad-
vance today in the November delivery
of corn, but other months gave way
under sales to realize profits. The mar
ket closed unsettled, 27s net lower to 5M
gain. with December 1.27 to LEX and
January 1.26h to 1.26A. Oats finished
l Is off to q up, and provisions varying
from decline to rise OF 20.
Stubborn shorts. who, until nearly
the last hour of the month. persistent
ly avoided a settlement of current con-
tracts. had to pay dearly for the privi-
lege. The added cost exacted was 5L
a bushel as compared with the pre-
vious day. 1t was said, however. that
the actual total of business thus af-
fected was not large. In all the other
options weakness prevailed almost
continuously from the outset. The
greater part of the selling came from
yesterdays buyers. In a general way
the downturn was looked on as a natu-
raj reaction, but talk OF European ef-
forts to bring grain from Australia
and Argentina tended somewhat to de-
press values and so. too. did agitation
against domestic high prices of food.
Conditions in the oats market formed
a close parallel to corn. Seaboard bids
were below cost here.
Improved cash demand put frmness
into provisions.

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK, November 3o.-The re-
tail dry goods trade showed improve
ment today. Cotton goods and yarns
eased. Burlaps We're lower. Wool
goods were very quiet; silks quiet
There was no change in the charac-
ter Of spot news from the south, but
the reports that holders were refus-
ing to sell at the decline were Offset
by the absence of any aggressive buy
ing for trade account. Fail River mill
operatives are said to have accepted
the proposal to continue present
wages pending more settled condi-
tions in the trade. Some of the
weekly reviews of the goods situation
read rather more encouragingly. but
the opinion has been quite generally
expressed around the ring here that
civilian demand is not expanding suf-
ficiently to offset the falling OFF in the
demand from the government.

The contingent of leading business

Local Securities.
The feature Of the local stock mar
ket during the past week has been
the gradual reaction in prices of
Mergenthaler shares since the annual
meeting developed the fact that bat
56 per cent over and above the diyi-
dend requirements had been earned
during the last fiscal year. On the
advance Mercy touched 146, on the
reaction she is pegged. at present, at
ls5.
Lanston has gone of from its high
at 81 to 63. but the reaction in both
is in full sympathy with the general
market conditions. reacfing ON the
very general belief that readjust-
ment will bring lower values.
Our public utility stocks. other than
Washington Gas, have about reco YER
