McADIE, | Forecast Officlal | EASTERN MARKETS. } e8! New York Stock Market. | NEW YORK, Oct I11—Great speculative ac- tivity continued in the stock market to-day, but it was centered to & large extent in trans- continental stocks, led by St. Paul, which rose £% points over last night in the late dealings, | @nd closed 1 point below the best. The ap- pefirance of the market suggested the days of last spring. dear to the memory of the pro- fessional speculator, when the absorption of a mew railroad system or & new transcontinental jon was rumored each successive day Iy accepted in the credulous mood of | ative world. The activity of to-day’s | market was largely due to the crop of rumors revived by yesterday's various reports of the proposed plan for consolidating the control of Northern Pacific, Great Northern and Burling- ton in one proprietary cempany. As a matter | of fact, the official disclaimers this morning | of the accuracy of the published reports and | the prompt relapse in the prices of Great | Northern preferred and Northern Pacific pre- | ferred had & somewhat chilling effect on the epeculative sentiment. The general accord of | the current rumors in allowing that the stock of Northern Pacific itself was not yet provided Jor in the plan, the alleged provision for the | Tetrement of Northern Pacific preferred, through which the control by the Harriman interests is exerted and the assertion by rep- | Tesentetives of Harriman interests that that was not & participant in the plan, | open up @ vista of renewed comten- | = the day progreseed there was a re- vival of 0id rumors that Union Pacific was to gcquire St Paul in exchange for new bonds. mce of these pleasant old associa- | lative enthusiesm seemed to take fire. The buying of St. Paul was quite in the | old prodigel fashion of outlay, and Union Pa- | cific, Southern Pacific and Atchison were con- gpicuous followers The extreme advance in | Tnion Pacific was 2% and in Southern Pacific i Rock Island wae up four points at ome time on light dealing=.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser's London financial ecablegram says: ‘The tome of the stock market was distinctly improved to-day, and there was much more ac. tivity, especially in the American department. Copper shares spurted with Amalgamated Copper, Rio Tintos 1% and Anacondas 1. American stocks opened with London a free buyer, expecting handsome profits, but New York stolidity made London sulk, although the reaction was unimportant. The coal stocks ‘were-the favorites in the expectation of a re- vival of the combination. Erie was in particu- lar demand.

Wholesome activity is still the feature at iron furnaces and steel mills. While old orders are filled & rapidly as possible, there Is no imme- diate prospect of catching up with contracts, cspecially as each day brings new business with dellveries running far into next year. Pigiron production on October 1, according to the Iron Age, was at the rate of 307,982 toms weekly, an increase of §112 tons over the output on September 1 and 84,813 tons more than in October, 1900, Yet furnace stock steadily de- greased, amounting only to 361,593 tons October 1. agalnst 670,541 a year ago and supplies in consumers hands are belleved to be light. Foot- wear shops are still producing at full capacity, Dot only n the old-established New England factories, but {n this State and in the West m South; prices are unchanged also, altho manufacturers contemplate the advancing of the leather market with some increasing inter- ¢st. Hides and leather are at the top price of the year, while the finished product sells below the prices of early spring. Quiet conditions prevall In the dry goods mar- ket, not because of light demand, but through the strong views of sellers, which prevent ex- Port sales as well as domestlo business. Slghtly better relative prices have been es- tablished by the leading cereals, wheat making a fair gain, while corn lost a little of its ex- ceptional strength. There is mo evidence of holding back for higher prices in Western re- celpts for two weeks of 15,835,426 bushels, against 12,918,353 last year, when imore attrac- tive quotations prevailed.’ Exports from the United States are not equal to the recent rec- ord-breaking figures, but still compare falrly Well with earlier years. For the week, flour included, shipments reached 4,185,328 bushels, §8alnst 3,585,438 a year ago, and 4,029,828 for +- —% Failures for the week numbered 231 in the A United States against 22 last year and 3¢ in | Bank Clearings.

The lull in the demand for dry goods, clothing and shoes from Western job- bers is, however, not unexpected, being ac- counted for by the advanced stage of the sea- son. ‘A slight upward swing in prices is noted this week. following the general gain in all staples down in September, but the changes in cereals are small, whether upward or down- ward. The great mass of prices the country over show few important changes, and this steadi- ness, in fact, is a notable feature of the trade situaticn. The feature in sugar is the partial restoration of the large reduction made in re- fined sugar at the West last week. Instead of the 3%c quotation of last week 4%c is now asked, the large orders received at the’ lower price making it certain that the full reduction | Was an extreme one. Iron and steel continue in active demand, particularly for the cruder forms, such as pis, and for finished products affectéd by the re- cent strike. Hardware is active at nearly all markets and supplies are generally limited. Some weakngss in nalls is noticed at the East, not- withsthnding active demand, but at the West wire mills are behind on orders. Special actiy- ity in lead and zinc is noted at Western pri- mary points. Copper is in hand-to-mouth de- mand here, but jt is to be noted that spot prices have advanced at London. Tin is higher here in sympathy with the speculative advance at the same market. Among cereal products the feature is the active demand for flour at higher prices. Wheat 15 & fraction higher on the week, on a bellef tnat following the recent decline caused Dby the heavily increased movement at the Northwest and the gain in visible supply reac- tion is due. i Wheat, including flour. exports for the week aggregate 4,719,898 bushels, as against 6,19 9 last week, and 4,292,855 In this week last year. Wheat exports, July 1 to date (fourteen weeks), aggregato 89,568,178 bushels, as against 50,458,240 last season. The boot, shoe, leather and kirdred indus- tries were all active and Eastern shoe ship- ments are 14 per cent larger for the week and 12 per cent larger for the season than a year ago. The strength of hides and the recent ad- vance in leather, however, is still further nar- rowing the margin of profit in shoe manufac- turing. Fallures in the United States for the week number 183, as against 175 last week, 210 in this week a vear ago, 164 in 1899 and %33 {n 1898, Canadian faflures number 30, as against 29 last week, 36 in this week a Yyear ago, 13 in 1599 and 22 in 1595 e Dun’s Review of Trade. b by Rl e : NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—R.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Most’ dealers continued to deprecate the too rapld advance in Butter and Eggs. sayving that they were willing to give buyers concessions to make sales! At the same time there was no desire to lower quotations. Stocks are not large but seemingly sufficient, and the demand is_nothing_extra.
