EXPORTABLE WHEAT
SUPPLIES INFERIOR
International Institute Also Note.
Fall in Probable Import Re-
quirements-Surplus Large.

By the Associated Press
ROME, November 3.-Exportable sup
plies of world wheat are inferior to
1881 by 100000 bushels. the Inter-
national Institute of Agriculture re-
ports.
This drop is Offset by a fall in the
probable requirements Of importing
countries of 17O00O,O0O bushels This
situation has been caused by poor crops
in the exporting countries and good crops
in the importing countries, coupled
with an abundance of rye. corn and
potatoes. the institute report says.
Stricter regulations of international
wheat trade have also played a part.
The total available for export is fixed
at 1900 100000 bushels OF this amount
$40 100000 bushels are old stocks and
730 100000 bushels represent the new
crop surplus.
Since the old eXportable stocks are ade-
Quate to meet almost nine-tenths of the
needs of importers. practically the en-
tire surplus of the 1882 crop will be
carried over for consumption in 1893
and 1884
1t is estimated that the existing
stocks have increased by 10000 900
bushels
The report states 1T is to be hoped
that the general economic situation OF
the world shortly will improve and that
international trade will again regain
normal movement so that the forma-
ton of such a heavy burden of stocks
may be prevented"

STOCKS IRREGULAR
IN SMALL TRADING
Industrial List Heavy-RaiI-
road Issues Move in
Narrow Range.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

NEW YORK, November Stocks
weakened again today after an early
show of strength, but the losses were
mostly fractional and the selling was
at no time as insistent as yesterday.
The main disturbing influence today
was still the record low prices for
wheat. December sold in Chicago under
AZ cents bushel for the first time since
trading in futures was established in
that city. Cotton broke through cents
a pound for the first time since early
August. 1t is true that these prices
sound whose than they really are, be-
cause the net decline on the day was
negligible in each decline.
Sterling exchange reacted at one time
as much as cents. European gold ex-
changes were higher, suggesting that
some of the selling in our security
markets may have come from abroad.
A few stocks met good support in
the last 5 minutes, among them Amer
1can Telephone. American Can and
United States Steel common. 1t looked
as though the market was approach
ing resistance point.
The market opened slightly higher,
sold off and then hardened again. so
that by noon the advance was about
BACK to where it was at yesterdays
close. There were few features cf
interest. One of them was an advance
III Homestake Mining to the highest
OF the year. AS a gold producer un-
affected by the collapse in commodity
prices and genera industrial stagnation
and paying dividends at the annual
rate OF So share, Homestake had dis
tlnct investment attraction. II was
TINS morning the Cnly common stock on
the board selling above S100 a share.
Other gold stocks improved fractionally.
1ndustrialS were heavy. Coca-Cola
was under some pressure. presumably
from professional sources. with the
same excuse made heretofore that re-
peal OF the prohibition laws would ad-
versely affect its business General
Motors made no response to the decla-
ration of the regular 25-cent quarterly
dividend. 1t was fractionally higher,
but moved with the general list. Amer
lcan Telephone ranged point or more
under par all morning. although it Is
expected the regular rate will be de-
clared again at the meeting in mid
November.
Not so much was heard about the
effect on the market of the results of
the voting on November 8. The situa-
ton that influenced sentiment most
was the failure of wheat to rally.
Then there was some concern about
the internal troubles in England. Final
~. heavlness in bonds, particularly OF
the speculative type, did not help
stocks.
