CHICAGO. October 1S.-Although
the wheat market showed a little
renewal of strength at the opening
today. depression quickly set in
again. Initial upturns were ascribed
to a disposition In some quarters to
take less bearlsh view of the gov
ernment report than was general at
the close yesterday. On the other
hand, uneasiness over the industrial
outlook tended to deprive the marke:
of support. Opening quotations
which varied from unchanged figures
to IN higher. with December Ito to
Iii. and May LA to lis. were fol-
lowed by material declines all round
Corn and. oats were relatively firm
Smallness of receipts had a bullist
influence. Corn. after opening un.
changed to y higher. December Al
to 46ls. hardened a little more. anc
then reacted somewhat.
Oats started unchanged to Il off
December 32ss to 32Ss. and Later
scored in the slight general gains.
Provisions were lower, with hogs.
CHICAGO. October 1S.-Subsequent
ly. despite liberal wheat export buy
ing. DecembeS and May deliverie!
touched the lowest level yet this sea
son. Financial conditions in Europ'
received considerable attention. Th'
| close was unsettled. 3% to AZ ne
lower, with December, 1.o5A t.
1.o5h. and May, 1.09N to 1.10.
Export inquiries helped later to sus
tain corn values. The close was stead!
at the same as yesterdays finish t
Mah lower, with December at 46.

BETTER TONE IN
THE STOCK LIST
BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK. October 1s.-Today;s
markets, while characterized by a
waiting attitude. ssowed a distinctly
better feeling over the railway strike
situation.
Stocks and cotton were stronger and
bonds steadier.
This scarcely meant anything more
than that spectators who had profits
on the short side after yesterdays de-
cline were covering them in. as they
saw the strike argument was induc-
ing no further liquidation.
Wall Street operations did not re-
fleet any less uncertainty on the
question whether or not there would
be a strike. The prevailing view was
that the only thing to worry about
reference. forcing compromise.
which would undo, SO fas as earnings
were concerned, much OF the good
effect of the IL per cent reduction in
wages last July.
The strike itself. it was felt. was
not to be feared, because If it should
come it could not possibly last long
enough to do general business any
serious harm. Therefore there was
no reason for the strike threats to
influence liquidation Of industrial Sc
curities or the securities of the
stronger railroads.
Left to fight it out. the result could
scarcely be in doubt. 1t is believed
in the street this could mean a
further 10 per cent lowering Of
wage scales and the passing Of this
onto the public in the shape of fur
ther rate reduction. thus satisfying
the demand which has been hanging
over the heads of the carriers for
months 1t would, therefore, place
the whole outlook for railway in
vestments in the brightest light it
has yet appeared.
Oppose Compromise.
Should the program suggested by the
public group Of the Labor Board be
forced upon the executives. however.
the same situation would obtain as
confronted the roads last winter and
were unable to earn their fixed charges.
After yesterdays exciting incidents.
the foreign exchanges had a rather
tame day. The German demand for
outside currencies appeared to have
slackened and. while Scandinavian rates
and sterling both came down.
Evidently the advance Of % cents
in the pound British exchange within
only three weeks had been too rapid
to hold II the closing out of an ex-
tended short interest and along with
CQlS lInp6 IuOuS J0TIIldH OuylHk nave
played q really large part in the rise.
1t must be remembered that these are
only temporary factors.
The market for German bills was
still staggering after yesterdays tre-
mendous blow. but the decline for
the moment was checked.
American sugar stocks. both prefer.
red and common. broke into new low
ground today. The fact that this de-
cline occurred on a large volume of
trading indicated that. while there
might be a good deal of short selling
in progress. there was also a lot of
actual liquidation.
Street gossip concerning the decline
did not diverge from the two lines
which 1t had followed right along,
first. that American sugar is in the
market to raise money and. second,
that as one Of the conditions for get
ting this money 1t will have to pass
its preferred dividend at the meeting
next month.
