SPECULATION IN !. CORN ONE OF MAIN
 GRAIN FEATURES Staple Closed About as on Previous Day, White Oats
 Were Up, With Pro-
 visions Seesawing

| Chicago, November 11-Profit talk ing on the part of spectators nearly counter balanced in the corn market | today declines which had resulted from resembling of the strike order to coal miners and from a return of good | weather. The market closed unset tied at the same as yesterdays finish, to &c higher, with December s1.33 to $1.33h. and May $1.261h to s1.26M. Oats gained $ and F to Sc. In provisions the outcome varied from 10c decline to 15c advance. Sellers of corn much more than out numbered buyers at first but condi- tions were almost the opposite later. Calling off of the coal strike was gen. orally construed as bearish, in as much as possibility of the crop movement being curtailed through lack of fuel for railroads was no longer in ques- tion. General clear and cold weather prevailing seemed also likely to aid in pushing forward the new crop Subsequently,, however, the fact that cash wheat prices were but little af- fected by the government offer to re- sell wheat tended to handicap the bears III corn, Then short sellers made an all round attempt to collect profits and occasioned the late rally.
 ActiVe export inquiry gave strength to oats.
 In provisions the effect of weakness or hog values was largely nullified by late upturns in grain.

BOTTOM FELL OUT OF STOCK MARKET
 ON LIQUIDATION
Money Market Played Havoc, Call Loans Opening at IA and Going
 to p in the Last Hour

New York, November 11.-Stocks gains of the previous month and much more in a number of instances, being sacrificed in the wave of liquidation which swept over the market in the furiously active final hour.
 Excepting United States Steel and representative railway shares. in which recessions were comparatively mod crate, leaders reacted 5 to almost 40 points. General Motors, conspicuous for its recent advance above 400. broke from 386 it's best price of the morn" ing, to 34S1k
 Primarily the violent upheaval was attributed to recurrent stringency in the money market. Call loans opened at the new high of If per cent. and held at that price until the last hour, when 20 per cent was demanded, with another jump to 25 per cent just be- fore the finish.
 To add to the unsettlement, further apprehension was caused by the demor- alized conditions which prevailed in tn market for foreign exchange Rates on London, Paris and Rome fell to new low levels of discount and remit tances to less important European cen- ters were sympathetically affected.
 The market was strong almost to the point of buoyancy at the opening, gains of to 6 points being accelerated by the short covering which followed the announcement of the calling off of the coal miners strike.
 Reversals set in before the end of the first hour, however, each tenta- tiv rally being followed by a gradual drop to lower levels Technical con- ditions doubtless contributed to the crumbling of prices at the end, many weak margined accounts being thrown upon the market as "stop loss" orders were uncovered Sales amounted to L. 90o,00O shares. almost 500, 900 of which changed hands in the last 50 minutes
 Bonds were featureless and more or less neglected in the attention di- rected to the stock market Most is- sues. including the liberty group, were again irregular to heavy. Total sales lpar yalue) aggregated s13,350. 900. Old O 5. bonds were unchanged on call
