Basis Election Results Hai Favorable Effect. General satisfaction was expressed In financial circles today over tho volume, of business transacted during tho last weotf. Short-term bonds tvero actlvo and trong, with many of tho higher class Is sues traded In on a 6 per cent, basis, wlillo tho new New York city Issues advanced to now high records, tho three-year notes soiling at 303. or on a 4,70 basis, Whllo tho one-year notes wore traded In t 101!i, or on a 4.60 basis. These notes wero token only a short time- ago by the bank syndicate on a 6 per cent, basis, with exchange At 5, the banks nnd city to share In nn? profit from exchange Operations exceeding 2,000,000. BInoo then tho demand sterling has yielded to around 4.90 nnd would have been established far below that rato If tt wero not for the now rules regarding Contraband promulgated toy tho (British Government Money has beon established on a 8 per cent, basis for both call nnd time loans In Now York and Is In freo Bupply.

Dealings In listed stocks both on the curb and oyer the counter became more extensive, with United States Stool com mon moving up from 41 to 43. Propor tionate Bains wero modo In other Issues, but this morning listed stocks wore lower in New York, United States Stool being offorcd at 4214, with tho supply apparently coming from somo Important sources. This confirmed tho view that satisfaction over election results Is not enough to sustain any display of strength, but that some development of moro substance Is neces sary to act as nn lncentlvo for main tained, iimprovomcnt, both In security val ues and Business prospects. Copper metal at tho beginning of the week was In good demand around ll',4c, but tho embargo placed on exports checked tho buying movement, and at tho week-end sales wero hard to effect at Standard Oil Issues, which had been heavy until yesterday, havo Improved ma terially and advances of 3 to S cents wero noted today in Pralrlo Oil, Standard Oil of California and many other of theso chares.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 7. -Hearing on tho application of tha Southern Pacific and Central Paclllo Railroads for per mission to retain control of the Pacific Mall Steamship Company and vessels owned XY the lines operating on the Sacramento Itlver was held by the In terstate Commerce Commission today. Under the Panama Canal act the Com mission Is vested with power to grant such permission to the carriers where. In Its opinion, such ownership of boat lines does not stifle competition. Attorneys for the Southern Pacific and Central I'aclfla declared that competition on traffic between the Paclfla and the Atlantlo would best be maintained through their ownership of the water carriers, and that a separate ownership would only tend to Increase the rates on transcontinental traulc. The Sacramento Itlver lines wero held to be necessary adjuncts of ferry freight, NEW YORK BANK STATEMENT Eurplus Increased $009,600 Over last Week; Loans. Smaller.

WHEAT NERVOUS, -WITH BULLISH TONE UNDERLYING TRADE Lively Export Call on Chi cago Board, With Similar Condition in Market for Corn. CHICAGO, Nov. 7. Wheat was ner vous today, prices keeping within rather narrow limits. Speculative trado was comparatively light. Thcro was nn ex cellent export call hero and at & number of other points. Underlying sentiment wan bullish, nffectcd by tho persistent demand from abroad. It was asserted that tho Italian Government has at tempted to nil a buying order for 1,000, 000 bushels hore, at Minneapolis nnd at Knns&t) City. Prices In tho northwest r ruled comparatively strong. Cash sales woro E25,O0O bushels. Futures closed 74c. to c. higher. Corn was dull In a speculative way, but thcro was an excellent export call and a fair business was closed. Offer ings of old corn for prompt shipment are far below the demand. Country sales of now to arrivo are tho smallest cvor known at this season, largely duo to tho how Government grading and to tho expectations of producers of a largo de mand later. Cash sales were 393,000 bushels. Futures closed M to '4c. higher. Oats kept within a narrower rango of prices relntlvely than other grains. Tho market closed strong. There was a re vival in tho Eastern domestic call, and somo significant Inquiries on foreign ac count. Cash sales wero 1S0.00O bushels. Futures closed to ?ic higher. In provisions covering of a largo specu lative line of shorts was completed early, profit taking on tho bulge resulted in qulto a reaction. At the decline tho nb sorption was good.
