INDUSTRIALS HIGHER.
Distilling and Cattle Feeding Touches
Another High Point.
JHE BAILKOAD LIST IMPROVES
And the General Market Closes With a
Etrong Tone freYalent.
KEW ENGLAND ONE OP THE FEATURES
Sew York, Oct 25. The day opened on
tlie Stock Exchange with a buoyant feeling,
owing partly to a heavy purchasing move
ment in Xew England, -which carried that
stock up to 40 from 48 at the close yester
day. Subsequently the price ran ofi to
4GJ. The general railroad list improved
M to yt per cent, but subsequently reacted
and left ofl practically unchanged from last
nisht's figures. Eeaaing, after celling
ofT a fraction to 57, advanced on
animated dealings to 5S. A
reaction to 5B58J occurred later. . Among
the Industrials, Distilling and Cattle Feed
in;: was the special attraction, ranging from."
GjJS to CSJe and closing at the latter, the
highest price ever reached. American
Migar, Cotton OH and other Industilale
ndvjuccd anywhere Jiom to2J percent
ai.d the only important reactions at the close
were in General Elcctiic, Susarand National
Staich. winch leceded llfrnm the hlgh
ct. Tho maiket closed steady in tone.
Tho Ev iung i'ust says: To-day's stock: mar
Vet 'prices changed little chiefly bccinsc
buying orders and selllnir orders at the mar
Vet so generally matched each other. The
few initial advances in St. Paul, in Chicago
Gas and conspicuously In Ne England
v ere made suddenly, and seemingly with a
view to market for ules. In most oftheso
ttocka yesterday's bull manipulators were
sellers. This frightoncd out the rank and
file, and was followed by a few hours of dull
ness. New England declined steadily, with
occasional spasmodic rallies, each or which
was gieeted by tresh liquidation. The gen
eral list proving immovable, tho spectacle
waspie-ented of an advance.in the Indus
trial stocks. Distilling certificates, last be
coming the room traders' favorite. led this
movement. Elsewlieie fluctuations were
small, and the whole market bore its usual
impress or professional manipulation.
We have bad a continuation or the bull
movement to-day, although fluctuations
have again been confined largely to tho In
dustrials, Chicago Gas. A. C. O., Lead, Sugar
and D. C. & F. scored rair advances and
showed a bold rront in spite of considerable
liquidation. The commission houses were
conspicuously the bui ers of the market and
we are inclined to think that theie was some
liquidation done by traders and tho Keene
crowd. In spite of this, however, there are
no -igns of w eakenlng in the general list and
offeiings seem to be ab'-orbed rapidly. Even
the Gould stocks have now joined lu
the general advance, and it the
Gould forces have joined issue
with the Keeno crowd, the market will
probably continue to advance until the bull
lecling has been worked up to such a degree
as to permit of more than partial liquida
tion. .It must not be lorgotten, however,
that we have not had a steady advance of a
foitnight without even a fractional set-back;
some stocks, such as Chtcago Gas and Dis
tillers, have advanced 15 points, while
others have advanced in proportion. The
outside interest is probably heavily engaged
and while we do not anticipate any gient
stringency in money, the bank reserves are
at a point where cautious men will piefer to
go slowly and a reaction Is possible at any
time J. S. Ba che & Co. to Oakley & Co.

CHICAGO 'CHAXGE.
TI10 Cereals Eulo Rather Easy and Provi
sions Irregular.
Chicago, Oct. 25. The big increase in the
visible supply of wheat last week seems
likely to be followed by another next week,
ns tho deliveries at primary points yester
day exceed the shipments by (1,000,000 bush
els and to-day they are in excess by 1,300,000
bushels. The recovery In prices late in the
day was attributed to Bradstreet't report,
which made an increase in stocks or 4,539 -000
bushels East and a decrease of 116,000
bushels West of the Rocky Mountains a not
increase of only 4,303.000 bushels for both
coasts. The opening was about kc under
yesterday's close and rurther declined Jc.
then rallied c, closing steady.
Corn was only moderately active and
easier, influenced partially by fine weather,
w hich, it was thought, would insure a con
tinuance of liberal receipts, and also
affected some by tho weakness in wheat.
Another depressing feature was the big in
crease of the stocks of contract in stor e,
-which are now 5,. '3,000 bushels, against
4,353,000 bushels a week ago. Initial trades
were at JiJc decline, afterward sagging off
another ic on moderate offerings, the local
crowd being more inclined to soil short; at
the decline the demand improved greatly,
but tho market recovered of tho
break, changed somo, and ruled steady at
the close.
Dntci In thA rasli market Wflfft dnll and
neglected. This served' to depress the
speculative market, ana pleasure to sen
carried down tbo price Hc Later there
was a fair recovery.
Provisions ruled strong, so strong that the
bull cliqno imagined for a moment that Oc
tober ribs could stand alone. They were
Quickly undeceived when thoy saw It tum
ble $1 per 100 in a minute or so and had to
lift it again and carry it- Wiight bought
very heavily of January pork, bis purchases
on tho call being reckoned to amount to
about 10,000 barrels. Ho likewise took
liberally oi Novomber pork and ribs. The
International Pncklng Cdnpany sold No
vember pork freely. Pardridgo took a hand
on tho bear side or January pork and the
Hatelvs were sellers of lard. Prices had
lieavv and frequent fluctuations in pork,
but the market was nt its best toward the
close. Lard was weak and closed lower
than on the day before. Hibs closed I5o
low er for October, 2c off for November and
7c higher for January. Pork at the close
is from 12 to 15e over the final quotations
of the day before.

LOCAL AKD GBNEEAL FINAKCIAL NEWS
Tuesday, Oct. 25.
The local stock market was moderately
active and interesting to-day, but in the
main it was weak, though here and there
a stock that has been weakest of late showed
something akin to strength. In this class
Philadelphia Company was prominent, with
a recovery to 21) sales, a close at 21J
21J and a bid ot 21 for a small lot alter
the close. There seemed to he some pretty
good orders in to buy and at the close it
looked as if the 'stock would recover a fair
percentage of its recent loss belore the end
of the week. Boston is nibbling around on
the buying side again,it is said, and if
anything develops to scare the shorts.
which is said to be probable, the recovery
will be very sharp. The conspicuously weak
spot of the list was Westlnghouso Airbrake,
-which sold down to 132 and closed at 130)
181, the depressing influence being set foitn
below. Duquesne traction was also nota
bly weak, selling at 28 on call, at 28 after
call and with more, oifeied act the same
price. P. & B. traction was possibly
somewhat firmer, but nothing else un
derwent any appreciable change. The list,
as a w hole bad an unstable look, the only
redeeming, features being the recovering
tendency shown by Philadelphia Company
and the steadiness In Luster, Switch and
Signal and United States Glass.
Movements on 'Change.
The first call was monopolized by Phila
delphia Company and Pleasant Valley rail
way, the former selling at 21)J21) and the
latter at 25 generally in small lots. Phlllle
subsequently sold at 2121K closing at
21t21, and P. V. at 25 closing at 25)
bid. 1'., A. & M. traction sold at 4( and
more could have sold at the same price. Be
tween calls Airbrake sold nt 132 and at the
close it was quoted at 130)131. Duqnesne
traction sold nt 2S) at trie third, Peoplo's
Pipeage at 15, and Chanter Valloy Gas at
12). After the call 50 shares Dr.quesne trac
tion sold at 24 and 50 shares 111010 were of
fered at the same figure.
Westlnghouse Electric second preferred
was quoted at 3737) and the i-crip at 9i95.
After the close one of the brokers offered
to trade in Switch and Signal at lsji either
way. ,
Unlisted street railway shares closed as
follows: P. & B. traction, 2t25; Duquesne
traction. 2828U; P., A. & it. traction. U
Westlnghouse Airbrake.
It developed to-day that the weakness of
Westlnghouse Airbrake was caused by an
advertisement of the New York Brake Com
pany, embodying a letter from Vice Presi
dent Webb, of the New Tork Central Rail,
road Company. In this letter Mr. Webb
says, among other things, that "there is no
difference between the operation of tho
Westlnghouse airbrake and the airbrakes of
the New Tork Airbrake Company." He
also says that "we are satisfied that there
are no practical objections to allowing tbo
cars equipped with the New Tork brake' to
be used in conjunction Kith those equipped
with the Westlnghouse brake. I have,
therefore, issued oiders removing all re
strictions as to the use of cars eaulpped
with your brakes; and hereaiter cars so
equipped will be received and operated bv
this company and treated precisely the
same as tho cars equipped with the Westing
house brake." This Is accepted as meaning
that the New Tork Central management be
lieves that the New Tork Brake Company's
apparatus can be used interchangeably!
with the Westlnghouse without injuring the
hitter's patent rU'ht. but the two companies
are engaged in litigation on this and other
points, and until they are legally deter
mined the New 1 ork Centralis not likely to
take any steps looking to the extensive use
ol the New 1 ork brake. It is possible, how
ever, that they may have some advance in
formation on the probable result of the liti
gation, and, Governor Flow er being inter
ested in both the New Tork Brake Companv
and the New York Central Railroad Com
pany, they have been induced to put his
Drake on wherever and whenever possible.
This letter or Mr. Webb's, however, will
not add to or subtract from tho mei it of
either brake. The Westlnghouse brake has
been demonstrated to be the superior of any
other ever made time and again, the last
demonstration being investigated by Gover
nor Flower himself. It was only a short
time since that the Chicago, Burlington and
Quinoy Railroad, which had enthusiastically
adopted the New Tork biake, tluew it off
the road in disgust, and declared emphati
cally that there was nothing in the Drake
line to compare with the Westlnghouse ap
paratus. The Dispatch does not think the investors
in Airbrake have anything to fear from the
New Tork Brake Company, and the West
lnghouse people are serenely confident.
The price 01 the stock may decline further
as the lesult of sales by those wbo believe
they can get theirstock back at lower prices,
but the price ot the shares will have no ef-
foct on the dividend paying power of the
company. It is a dangerous stock to short,
as there Is no telling what morning a short
may wake up to find a 10 per cent dividend
staring him in the face
Mining Shares.
The story about Enterprise Mining Com
pany, printed exclusively in The Dispatch,
caused a good deal of talk on the street to
day, but the stock wus not mentioned on
'Change. Fi lends of the company wero In
clined to believe that the situation had been
exnggerated and that Messis. Crawford,
Posey et al and their plant were all right.
"George Crawford has had along and varied
experience in the. mining business," said one
of them this afternoon, "especially the legal
end or it, and they are not likely to take
any steps in the dark. I think you will find
they aie all right and will continue to do a
paying business at the old stand for some
time to come"
A telegram was shown on 'Change during
the last call, announcing the fact that the
company had declared the regular monthly
dividend of 2 per cent, or 10 cents per share,
which is evidence that the company is still
making a little money either on their own
or some other property.

Tho Tankee Girl, of Ouray connty. Col.,
during its past fiscal year, sold 4,033 tons of
ore, which averaged $30 12 per ton, 11 rid the
net result was a loss of $33,590 50, or $8 22 per
ton. To meet the loss and provide for the
luture, the company issued $50,000 in bonds.
The mine is looking better than it has lor a
year, and gives promise of again becoming
a profit payer. A new discovery or rich ore
has been made near the surface, about 200
feet from the shaft northeast toward the
Guston, and it promises to yield well.

BUTTER IS BOOMING.
The Klgln Board Establishes Another Ad
vance In Creamery Roasted Coffee
Again Advanced Grain Continues Dull
and Weak Potatoes Higher In the
Country.
Tuesday, Oct. 25.
As foreshadowed in this column yester
day Elgin butter quotations were advanced
lc per lb. at the meeting of the Elgin Board
on Monday, and one , result will be a corre
sponding advance here the latter part of the
week. Prices are still too low, it is said,
because they are below the parity of export,
and as dealers here are only getting about
one-third enough for their trade, it follows
that the condition of supply and demand
justifies a still higher range.
All grades of roasted coffee were advanced
cperlb. to-day and the maiket was quoted
stiong at the advance. Following is the last
statement of the supply of Brazil coffee in
stock and afloat: Total stock in New York,
185159; total stock in Baltimore, 3,020; total
stoclt in New Orleans, 26,682; total stock in
United States, 214,861; aflu.it from Rto per
steam to October 22. 205,000: afloat from Rio
to sail October 22, 17,000; afloat from Santos
per steam and sail to October 22. 102,000;
afloat from Victoria to October 1, 18.000;
afloat from Europe to October 3, 1,000. Total,
557.86L Same time last year, 549,474.
"Potatoes are too low at 7o75c per
bushel," said one of the produce commis
sion men to-day. 'Trices have advanced 3ffl
4c per bushel in tho country, and we must
get E083o per bushol here or else do busi
ness tor nothing. It looks to me as ir the
market was going to be higher."
Applos seem to be on the eve of doing bet
ter. There is less poor stock on the market,
the range or prices 1b not bo wide and all
stock is rather firmly held.
Eggs aro steady, but poultry, while about
unchanged in price, is easy under continued
heavy receipts.
Everything in the line of grain, reed and
bny continues weak and depressed under
heavy receipts.
Too much grain in sight and a too rapid
accumulation in elevator stocks are causing
continued weakness in prices. At last ac
counts the visible supply or grain cast or the
Rocky Mountains was about 55,000.000 bush
els of wheat, 12,170,000 bushols or com, -and
7,550,000 bushels or oats, an incroase over the
preceding week in each instance, the in
