The widening in December. May spread yesterday was toe result of December liquidation. Tbs Is likely to continue through balance of month. This and the very large receipts are bear factors just now and may lead to some decrease in price. If you are going to be disappointed a cent decline would not advise buying.

Personally I don't look for muchj break. Wheat seems low. Liverpool loer, their decline not equal to ours. Cash business done here yesterday in twheat was 100,000. Corn Good deal bought here above 62 for May and if price starts down I look tp see considerable long corn sold out.

A am inclined to think we will have an advance today. Cash business yesterday 540,000 bushels. Oats showed as1 much strength if not more than on any ther day. At close Nov. and Dec.

were only 1 1-4 cent nnder May while sample lots commanded the highest premium yet paid cash business 245,000 bushels. FOREIGN MARKET. Liverpool, Nov. 13. Wheat steady; corn firm.

13. The engagement of $5,250,000 gold for shipment by tomorrow's steamer has heM peculation and disconcerted the money market. This Is rather serious matter with the bank reserves at only some 000,000 over the legal requirements. The situation is an arm melons one, as we arc shipping gold at a when we shoult ordinarily be importing it. This seems to be due to the fact that two of our argest banking houses have been enor mous borrowers on their 60 and 00 day bills in.

European markets and now thai these bills cannot be renewed to advantage and both On-at Britain and France wish to strengthen themselves to meet the issue of new government loans, for which purpose they are calling their redits home, it means that the financing of the pending great railroad deals is be-inir transferred from the foreien monev market to our own; at a time when the atter is 111 prepared to ausume the bur den.

The positive assertions in newsnaoera that not only has the Northern Pacific controversy been definitely settled, but that also an announcement of some sort would probably be made today after -the meeting of the Northern Pacific directors brought about a strong St. Paul was favorably influenced by report that control had been bought by Union 1'acibc and that Union Pacific 4 per cent, converted bonds would be issued for St.

Paul stock on the basis of twenty bonds for 100 shares of stock. The ad vances, however, were not well maintained, as considerable liquidation made its appearance and the volume of com mission business was disappointingly small. In Atchison one house which often bandies orders for Mr. Keene was a seller of ten thousand shares. The reaction was further helped by thd large engagements of gold; for export.

Trac- ion stocks acted well and in spite of the denial by Mr. reland there was strong belief some deal was pending between Metropolitan and Brooklyn. For eign houses were only moderately active but bulk of their transactions were on selling side. Opinions vary very much as to whether the publication of details of Northern Pacific settlement will result in very much higher prices. J.
