NITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL- | AT, SAN FraNcIsco, Oct. | 23, 1896, 5 P. i —Weather conditions and general | forecast | The following maximum temperatures are re- ported from stations in California to-day: Eureka 64, Fresno 80, San Diego 64, Red Bluff 82, San Luis Obispo 76, Yuma 80, San Francisco 76, Los Angeles 72. San Francisco data—Maximum temperature 76, minimum 59, mean 68. The well defined barometric depression which ‘was ceatered last fight In ~outhern Callfornia and Western Arizona has become less marked during the past 24 Lours. It has caused, however, quite geperal rains in Arizona and from .o0s An- geles southward in Caiifornia. Ample warniogs, however, were foroished to the raisin-growers in the Southern Calitornia district, and it is believed that 1o injury resulted. The pressu.e is failing to- night alongz the Oregon and Washington cous's, which condition indicates the movement of a mod- erxte depression from ihe seato the coast in the vicinity of Vancouver. It is hardly expected, bowever, that it will cause rain as far south as California. Forecast made at “an Francisco for 30 hours ending midnight, October 23, 159 Northern California—Fair Friday, exceps partly clondy in the extreme northern joriion; fresh northerly winds.

Y., Oct. 22.—Itisalong time since the bull feeling at the Stock Exchangeran as high as it did to-day. In spite of ihe advance in Bank of Englend rate of discount and the advance in the rates of steriing exchange, prices declined only 14@4% per cent and in & very short time the trend of the market was upward once more. As the rise mede piogress the shorts tecame thor- oughly slarmed and their purchases gave an fm- ‘Detus to the upward movement. The bulls had full control and lifted one stock after another with comparative ease. The highest quotations were reached at about 2 o'clock. and at that (ime prices showed an ad- vance of 15 10 per cent, the industrials, Louis- ville and ‘Nashviile, the grangers and the Souih- westerns leading. The deaiings were largely pro- fesslonal, but some of the commission-houses did report orders for moderate amounts irom ontside acconnt, the latter probatly because of tha easier sales for money here. Around deiivery hour (2:16) news came about the further demoraliza- tion in the wheat market, and the bears tsed it to moke adrive at the share-list. ‘The decline from the highest was only 14@114 per cent, and this, 100, notwithstanding exiensive reatizing. ‘lhe market left off steady at a frac- tional rally.
