DULLNESS IN STOCKS
Attributed to tbe Near Approach of
the P residental Election.
A NUMBER OF SHARES RAIDED
"With 11 ore or less J-nccess and Others
Score Higher Harks.
OHIO SOUTHERN PRESENTS THE FEATURE
v Xew York, Not. 2. Speculation at the
Stock Exchange was less active than for
some time past, and the dullness is attrib
uted to the ncarapproach of the Presidental
election which occupies the atten
tion of the street to the exclu
sion of everything else. The dullness
was taken advantage ot to raid the different
shares, which, however, yielded to per
cent outside of New England, Lake Shore,
American Sucar and Northern preferred,
the decline being about a point in each
case. Final sales were at a recovery of
to . A lew stocks moved inde
pendently of the fluctuations just noted,
scoring higher quotations and holding the
advance well to the end. Illinois Central
rose 2K to 10S. New Yoi k Central moved up
fiom 111 to 11 but reacted tn 11!. There
was a livelv demand lor New York, Susque
hanna and'Wosterns, tbecommira and pre
lerred both advancing a point. The widest
changes of the dav wero In Ohio Southern,
which advanced 4X per cent to on rumors
that the company h.is obtained the neces
sary capital to extend Us system. The in
dustrial croup was quiet and quotations
closed about the same as yesterday. The
market closed steady in tone.
Railnay bonds were Arm, tbesale amount
ing to $1,221.WW. The Heading issues wore
weaker. Detroit and Bay City and Alpena
Ists declined 3 to CO and Houston and Texas
debenture 4s rose 2 to S0.
In the moraine Illinois Central and New
Yoik Central were advanced by tho traders
the former on areport that the decision soon
to be rendered by the United States Su
preme Court would cede the right to them
of tbe property along the lake tront at Chi
cago. If they win the suit it will be a tre
mendous thing for the Central, but they
have lost It once befoieln another court,
and it is probable that the decision will bo
adverse to them again. Whisky moved in
narrow limits, and the Coalers report frac
tional losses, though there were rumors ot a
cut In coal rates. We think that in view of
the present manipulated state of the mar
kets It Is best to take profits and await de
velonments before purchasing. J. S. Bacbe

A Sharp Bally Follows Early Depression in
Grain and FroIsions.
Xllaoo, Nor. 2. strong rally, after an
"interval of depression, was the feature of
to-day's markets. The strength extended
into all the pits, lifting both cereals and
provisions. Price changes fiom last night,
however, are not remarkable. In wheat at
the start there was free liquidation which
was Increased by rains thioughout the
winter wheat district. December was the
weakest and fell to 6 cents discount on iirnr
against 5c difference yesterday. Counsel
man was out with a statement that all reports
connecting his house with a squeeze of
that month are utterly without foundation,
' and that he really feels very liearlt.li on the
market. This was followed by weak cables,
which increased the depression and the sell
ing was for a time urgent nnd vicious. May
sold at the lowest of the crop. Iviter, how
ever, operators began to feel that perhaps
they had not acted wlselv In selling so
freely and began to take back the property.
At the same time the estimates for to-morrow
came in unusually light, and
this was quickly followed by Brad
tireett report of the available supply
showing a much smaller increase
than expected. Under the influence
of this ne s the market developed consider
able firmness and prices reacted. BeDorts
from the Northwest are generally agreed
abont a heavy decrease In larmers' deliver
ies, but country elevators and sidetracks
ore so crowded that the effect of that on
Minneapolis and Duluth receipts is not ex-,
pected to show for some time yet.
Corn was weak during the first hour and
sold off sharplv. Influenced largely by the
downward tendency in wheat, for all other
conditions were favorable. Tlie receipts
were nearly 100 oars less than estimated and
rain was reported everywhere in the corn
belt, but the slump in wneat carried corn
with It. Later when heat began to react
corn quickly followed, and was further
strengthened by the small estimate for to
morrowonly 2S5 cars.
Oats were steady most of the day. The
receipts were only 173 cars, where 240 had
been expected, and the estimate for to-mor-tnorrow
ns for only ISO cars. The close
wan at JK above yesterday's flguros.
There was sliarn action In tbe provision
j market most of the sosion. It was not nn
j expected. The trade knew that tbe Cudaliy-
wngnt people were alter me uyau k iu.

TRADING FALLING OFF,
1
But the Market Presents a Generally
Steady to Strong Front.
AIRBRAKE MOVES DP AGAIN
And Duqnesne Traction Continues Its Re
covering Movement.
FEW OTHER CONSPICUOUS FEATURES
. Wednesday, Nov. 2.
The volume or business in local securities
to-day showed a further tapering off from
that completed Monday, and indications
pointed to the conclusion that moderate
trading is all that can be looked for until
alter the election. Such a condition, how
ever, is without the natural accompaniment
of a weakening tendency superinduced by a
disposition to let go of stocks for a while.
Iudeed, the market is generally stroug, all
tilings considered, and the position of a
majority of the' active shares is such that
advances are more likely to be es
tablished in the near future than
declines. The features to-day were
a further recovery in Duqnesne traction,
the strength of Airbrake, a slisht weaken
ening in P., A. & M., sales S(
Pittsburg traction at 59 and the failure or
Philadelphia Company to retain all tho re
covery of the previous day.
On the street there was evidence that con
siderable business in street railway bonds
was passing, and some of tho brokers were
busy picking up small lots of Pleasant Val
ley so that holders could even up in order
to trade their holdings properly for Man
chester stock. The work of attending to
transfers and other necessary details is
generously left to the brokers, but as a rule
it Is a "thank you" Job and they are not par
ticularly anxious lor it. It takes time, and
timo is money, especially with the brokers.
Movements on 'Change.
Westinghouse Electric second preferred
sold at 39 at the first board and closed
offered at 39. Pittsburg traction srold at 59,
and the closing quotations were 559. Xn
odd lot of Union Switch and Signal pre
ferred sold at 53, the stock closing at 37K
39. Pleasant Valley sold at 25, closing at
25K asked. P., A. & M. traction sold at4t4
4o on call, the outside price for two shares,

tho closing bid was 43. Central traction
sold at i0. closing at 29 bid; a small lot of
Airbrake sold at 132, and after the close
Electric scrip sold at 94, with the same
price bid for more.
People's Pipeoge was fractionally firmer,
but Philadelphia Company, under a littlo
offering, lost a fi action of the gain of the
east few days. Underground Cable and
nited States Glass continued to show
strength. Ii Norii was higher and Luster
easier, and others were unchanged.

follows: Duquesne traction, 27 bid: do. 5s,

Kxcbange Dii ersions.
Politics run neck aud neck with business
on 'Cnange, If, indeed, nfore interest was
not manifested in the former than the lat
ter. Harrison money was abunaant, but the
supporters of Mr. Cleveland had either
already "put up" to the extent of their
ability, or else they felt less sanguine of the
success of their tavorlte than they did a
few days ago, for none of the Harrison
money was covered.
The black eye received by Central traction
in Councils in the matter of the Bellelield
street railway ordinance has evidently em
bittered the irieuds of Central against the
Duquesne people. The latter were charged
with violation of agreements and promises,
and wagers were offered that their road had
not made a dollar since it commenced
operations: that it would not nay a divi
dend as soon as some people expeoied, and
that it was "no good" on general principles
anyhow. Friends of Duquesne offered to
take somo of the wagers, provided those
who offered them would prove their ability
to decide them satisiactorilv. It was also
intimated that Central wnnld "have the
law on" Councils and the Belleficld street
railway projectors.
The Election nnd the Trusts.
The effects of the election upon the so
called trust stocks seeui to be a favorite
topic of discussion just now in tho various
bankers and brokers' offices. In some way
an impression seems to have gaine1 ground
that Mr. Cleveland's election means a vigor
ous warfare against trusts. With a view of
obtaining the opinion 01 the people most
deeply Interested on the subject, says tho
iralJ Street News, several or them have been
interviewed, and in substunce they say:
Tho Sherman anti-trust law is obligatory
In Its provisions. Attorney General Mil
ler carefully investigated several of the
combinations, and the result was that
suits were brought In Boston against Distill
ing and Cattle Feeding and in I'll iladelplila
against the American Sugar Refining Com
pany. Equally caiciul investigation was
made in the case 0: Cordage, and the Treas
ury agents reported that .there was no
ground for snlt and Attorney General Miller
broueht no suit, becauso the Cord :go com
pany was not a monopoly, but was pursuing
legitimate business. In tho Whisky Trust
suits tho indictments weie detective and
nnd to bo amended. In the Sujf.-ir case hear
ings are going on before a Master, the
Sugar pcoDlo being absolutely confi
dent that their position is unassail
able. What Mr. Cleveland's Attorney
General will do in caso Mr. Cleveland is
elected, no one can say. Mr. Harrison's
Attorney General has brought snits against
certain of the ex-trusts; tiiat is, companies
that wero originally lormed a trusts, but
wero reorganized as regular corporations,
many ot them under the Ian s or New Jersoy.
Under either administration tho ex-trust
ptople are uerfectly satisflod that theli po
sition is impregnable, except perhaps where
an absolute monopoly exists, and such a u.iso
among listeu industrials will be extremely
hard to find. The managers of the so-called
industrial stocks ate confident that the elec
tion will have no ellect whatever upon spec
ulation In this group of stocks, and profess
absolute indifference, as to the results.

Wednesday, Nov. 2.
Two sales of residence properties were
closed to-day by Messrs. W. C Stennrt
and Black & Baird. These sales, in con
junction with the 'many other deals in
properties in this line which have been
made lately, verify the statement made in
this column a short time ago that increased
artivitv had developed in residence proper
ties. W. C Stewart sold for William Biggs
a new dwelling on Meyran avenue, Oak
land, for $8,500 cash, and Black & Baird sold
for Annie AI. J. Lawton to Frank Torchlrf
the properties Nos. 19 and 21 Webster avc
nuo, being a brick dwelling on a lot 40x80
feet through to Dante ullcy, for $8,650.
Notes of Gossip.
The St. Anthony Chapel on Troy Hill will
very likely be sold befoid the close or. the
present week. Two of the heirs ot the late
Father Molllnger, with the power of at
torney ftom tbe remainder or the heirs, are
in the city (at the Seventh Avenue Hotel), it
Is said, for the purpose of disposing of the
property. A very flattering offer hns been
submitted to tbe heirs, and it is very likely
that the transfer will be made in a few days.
Tho new boulevard that will extend from
the Allegheny river to Forbes street is 0110
of the most important i-nprovements pro
jected in the East End. The new thorough
fate will not only open np immense traots
that aro now difficult of access, but it will
furnish more direct communication between
localities lying within comparative little
distance from each other, but which, owing
to tho peouliar topography of the city, are
almost disconnected.

GOOD TRADE REPORTS
Continue to Come From AH Points Money
Plentiful and Collections Easy Fanners
Still Bushing to Market With Their
Wheat, Oats and Corn.
"Wednesday, Nov. 2.
For some time past trade in all depart
ments has been quite active and general
business reports continue highly encourag
ing. Honey is plentiful and likely to grow
easy from now forward and collections are
satisfactory. The most striking feature of
the movement is the extraordinary rush of
the farmers to market their grain. All the
railroads are crowded with orders to move
wheat and corn, and blockades are reported
eyervwheie. Stocks of wheat In sight are
unpieccdentedly large for the time or year,
and they have been Increasing nt the rate of
upward 01 4,000,000 bushels a uoek. At New
York the stocks have risen to 14,000,000 bush
els and the elevators theie and elsewhere
are ciowded to overflowing. Adayorrwo
ago it was stated that lrom 4,000 to 6,000 cars
of grain were on the tracks in Chicago wait
ing to be switched or unloaded; 130caison
outside tracks were not Inspected owlug to
their distance from the city. Under these
circumstances lb is only natural that
prices tor grain should rulo lower.
Wheat is phenomenally cheap, the price
having fallen to tne lowest figure so fur
reached on this crop. No. 2 cash lots of
spring wheat have sold at 69c per bu during
the last week, which is 23u lower than it
touchod at any time in October, 169L It
seems as if tho farmers should get a better
price lor their wheat, us India and Russia,
havo short crops, and EuroDean importing
countries are certain to be good buyers o;
our surplus breadstuns. and there are rea
sons fur believing that after the mad rush to
sell is abated there will be a rise in values.
Com is being marketed with great lreedom,
and is very weak. Corn-husking is pioceed
ing rapidly, and the new crop will be mar
eted at an early date if the weather con
tinues as favorable as it has been of late.
Advices from different parts of the West
state that farmers are still plowing and that
the winter wheat in the giound Is making
good piogress. Hogs are arriving mora
freely, and cattle and sheep are being mar
keted actively.
