NEW YORK, Nov. 22.—The Evening Post's London financial cablegram says: | The stock market here was better generally, the factors operating being the continued ease | of money and the trade agreement between France and Italy. Italian stocks rose over 2 per cent, and there was an important exchange on London, Americans were good and closed steady, but theére was, perhaps, less activity owing to the improvement in other markets. The recovery in Itallan stocks caused con- siderable realizations from Berlin, which is important as placing that market in funds for dealing in Americans or for other purposes. Copper shares were strong, notably Anaconda, which was bought heavily. The money outlook here is perplexing. The Bank of England still borrows from the market, but the heavy ma- turity of German bills held here, and not re- , ‘adds daily to the unemployed cash bal- I learn on undoubted authorlty that a 2 is under discussion at Berlin for abol- ishing the tax payable by the Imperial Bank when_ the note issue exceeds the fixed amount, The idea is opposed by the best banking au- thorities. It is impossible to say whether the proposal will be formally made or not. LONDON, Nov. 22, panish 4s closed at 42.60.

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.—The first hour and a half in Wheat trading was marked by excep- tional dullness, and prices during that period scarcely moved from the point at which the market started. It seemed as if the blizzard had frozen up all inclination to buy and sell Wheat, and trades of any importance were re- markable for their scarcity. There was some selling pressure at the start, enough to cause 3%@%c decline in the leading options. Early Liverpool quotations marked a Very smail ad- vance. The selling, however, was apparently almost altogether by shorts. Liverpool receipts for the past six days have been entirely from this country, and this and the decreasing shipments from Russia and the Danublan countries had evidently left a permanent im- pression on_the speculative mind, as very lit- tle long Wheat was for sale. A remarkable feature of the Northwest market Wwas an ad- vance of 1 cent -for-cash Wheat. This was a starter for a notable advance here. After 11 o'clock the market became active and very strong. The blizzard was raging throughout the West and Northwest and was expected to suit in a great falling off in receipts, and so caused fears of an early closing of the straights. This frightened December shorts and heavy buying from that source continued for some time, sending the December price at_one time to a premium of ljc over May. The cash situation was too strong for the market to be held down, and near the close buying became very sactiye again, the market advancing and holding firm to the ‘end. De- cember closed at 8834c and May at STIHR@6THe. The market for Corn was active throughout. Early there was a slight dip on the theory that thg cold weather would improve the quality of nefw Corn. There were buyers for every bushel offered, however, and the market got very strong. May closed @ic higher. Oats followed Corn closely, opening weak and closing strong. There was a good deal of short selling by scalpers early in the day, and thelr covering helped materially to strengthen the market. May ranged from 26@2%c and closed %c higher. Provisions, though rather quiet, were firm and closed at an advance. Packers were mod- erate sellers, but there was an increased com¢ mission demand and all offerings were taken. At close January pork was 1ztc higher at § 221, January lard 5c_higher at 3510 and January ribs 7%@l0c higher at $4 T0@4 T2%. eading futures ranged as follows: Open. High. Low.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.—The Journal of Com- merce says: The Sicily lemon market has been unsettled for some time past as ‘a result of liberal receipts on a dull market. From the beginning of the season to date there have ar- rived in round numbers 177,000, against about 173,000, boxes for the corresponding period last year and about 100,000 in the previous year be- tween these dates. Last year and the year be- fore California was a prominent factor and supplied a considerable part of the Western demand. This season, while offerings have not been s0 great from the coast, enlarged ship- ments from Sicily influenced by comparatively high prices ruling at the beginning of the sea- son seem to have overstocked the markets . East and West. Speaking of the condition of the market a prominent_ jobber said to-day that the uncer- tainty as to the future was about done. ““The market,” he said, ‘4s gradually assum- ing a_normal condition statistically. The available supplies in sight are slightly less than the quantity at the dock and en route at this time last year. ‘“Advices from _Californl he confinued, “indicite that there will bé no heavy shi ments from the coast until after January 1, while the few carg now being shipped from there are mostly green and therefore not avall- able for immediate consumption. The recent receipts of Sicily lemons have been of good quality and have shown & large percentage of perfectly ripe fruit available for immediate use.”” Another leading jobber confirms these state- ments and adds: ““The quantity of fruit now being . shipped from Siclly is not excessive and there are no very large cargoes afloat.’” FOREIGN MARKETS. .

Hides stand | about the same. Wool shows some change. Fall descriptions being lower, A local circu- lar says: “While the volumé of business in the East has been liberal for the past three | weeks, it has not reacted upon the West. This | is chiéfly for the reason that the banks of Bos- | ton of late demonstrated the fact that con- siderable wool paper was being carried, anid that it should be diminished. This was done by making large sales of wool at extremely low prices. Our local market is dull. Occasfonally ar order comes along on a low basis, but such orders are so few and so limited as to quan- tity that it ouly cuts a sorry figure in reduc- ing the large stock held here.”” HIDES AND SKINS—Culls and_brands sell about Ic under the quotations..
