In these movements rumors of deals, such as one of a R ool demand and prices seems to have recelved 8 temporary setback from the failure of a large commission house with woolen 1 | connmections. Railway returns continue favor- e s R o S e ces as g T s excep- loyed; anthracite coal min- 1| tionally well employed; ing cperations have been practically resumed | and ruling prices for that product seem as- sured. New of export trade are pre- sented and the excess of outward trade is as- suming phenomenal proportions. The market for cereals is a dragging one, with price changes few and of little importance, but stock speculation, although quieter, is strong and confident in tone. Reflection of the late enorm- Qus business In this line is found in unprece- dented bank clearings, the totals relapsing over the large totals of 1850, The strength of prices is &till more manifest in iron and steel, demand for which continues large both for crude and finished materials. The action of the billet pool in advancing prices s claimed to have checked demand. Pigiron has also been affected by efforts to advance Bessemer E( but though not as active as last week, it very strong and higher at the West, while firm and tending upward at the South. Stocks are estimated to have decreased 0,000 tons in October. In finished material the actlvity is most marked, and mille are gener- ally without supplies of orders and indifferent fo future business at present rates. A fair business is doing in rails at the West; §25 per ton is the price talked of. The rallways are free buyers of cars and other material and structural material tends upward, although the intention of beam manufacturers to ad- yance prices is not confirmed. The awarding of 'lhe Government contract for armor plate at $425 per ton will swell the output of the steel industry by 315,000,000 Hardware is on im- proved distribution at nearly all points, and tin is higher, in v ot u‘nmm. sympathy with the wire advance Wheat, including flour, shipments for the week aggregated 4,062,000 bushels, against 3,565,507 bushels last week, 4,530,007 bushels in the corresponding week of ‘1893, 5,569,141 bus! in 1898, 6,853,792 bushe £97 and 3,937, ushels 15 856 S B e % .

The smaliness of stocks of goods carried s a feature of our reports from most of the lead- ing centers. Scarcity of labor gives manufac- turers in the Middle States great concern. Ac- tivity at Cincinnati and steel mills steadily in- creases, and there {s an equally uniform ad- vance on the quotations. The gain has been more general this week than at any. us time this season, pigiron moving up ton and corresponding gains appearing In billets, plates and structural m terial generally. Instead of the recent agits tion for cheaper steel rails, there is now talk of an advance to §25, owing to the further rise in steel billets. Orders come forward in the best volume since last spring, when there was severe inflation of prices, and requests for quick delivery are general. The report of pigiron | production on November 1, by the Iron Age, shows a weekly capacity of only 215,304 ton: the smallest since September, 158, but the re- duction of 29,000 tons from October 1 in fur- nace stocks is most encouraging. The figures, with the activity in all branches of the indu: try, indicate that there will be no further re- duction in output, but the December statement | il probably show more than 200 furnaces in ast ‘acker hides at Chicago have ceased to ad- vance, but remain firm at top figures and coun- try hides made further gains. Tanners are not buying eagerly, and offerings are also mode: ate. Leather quotations are only slightly al tered, while seven grades are steady at former figures. Beiting butts have advanced sharply. A temporary flurry in the wheat market on | Monday took the December option above Soc. | It was reported that Wall street operators were | turning their attention to grain.

Liverpool selling was large d the realizing soon made a decline of over . which exceeded the previous advance. The much-discussed advance in meats at Chicago was not heavy, but scarcity of first quality fresh exgs has brought very high prices. Failures for the week in the United States were 217, against 219 last year, and 33 in Can- ada, against 20 last year. = * New York Grain and Produce = * NEW YORK, Nov. 18.—FLOUR—Receipts, 14,4589 barrels; exports, TIT9 barrels; sales, §100 packages.
