BANKS' LOSS ESTIMATED
Strlngcncr In Money Market Is Ir
no red by Stocktradcrs PrcS'
sure Is Resisted and Up
ward Move Continues.
NEW TORK. Nov. 10. The rate for call
loans went to 15 per cent again today, and
the ssUmates- of the losses In cash by the
banks for the week on the currency movement
ran from . 18,000.000 to nearly .510.000.000.
Nevertheless, stocks showed effective resis
tance to pressure and later In the day de
veloped aggressive strength. The conductors
of the speculative operations for an advance
eemed to have come to a concerted deter
mination to Ignore the stringency in the nseny
market as an influence on sentiment and to
pay the prevailing rate from day to day loans
and hold their stock.
In the active discussion of the money sit
nation, which went on all day. much was
heard of a claim or a complaint that the ap
parent stringency In the money market was
the result of manipulation and was designed
against Important speculative pools in special
Mocks. The comparative tranquillity of other
departments of the money markets was point
ed to as corroborative of this view, it was
a view that did not receive much countenance
In banking circles or outside speculative clr
ores about the stock exchange. A decline of
JS.009.000 to ?10.000.000 within a week in
the cash holdings of the banks, with the sur
plus reserve at the beginning of that period
down to J2.354.275. while speculative borrow
lng continued Into this week in attempted ex
tension of operations for the advance at some
points seems sufficient explanation for the
necessity on the part of the banks to curtail
loans. It Is by no means unusual for Interest
rates for a commercial purpose to be held down
to a 6 per cent rate In the midst ot violent
flurries In the call-money market on the flock
exchange. The precedent of IS per cent quoted
on eall money at the stock exchange In De
cember. 1S99. while 6 per cent ruled for tlni
Ioam and for mercantile papr. Is the mod
striking example. It Is the comparative tran
triHIty of commercial Interest rates that Is
offered to explain the reluctance ot the Sec
retary ot the Treasury to take any measures
for the relief of the money market so far as
the purely speculative needs are concerned
The week'ct operations of the banks with the
rehireasury alone show a loss of $5,127,000.
The high rate for money Is an effective
barrier against foreign pressure for funds upon
New York and foreign exchange made
further wide decline today. This was in spite
ot a hardening of discounts in Paris and Ir
Hn. Offerings of bankertV bills In the ex
change market against loans placed In the
money market was the principal factor In the
weakness of exchange. The attractive level
of money rates was said to have Induced largn
offerings from outside centers and for account
of corporations and capitalist In different
parts of the country- The calling of loans
oa the part of local bankn. however, kept up
the rate most of the Ume above 11 per cent.
Foreign market were discouraged again by
the Russian troubles. asVshown by the fall
In Russian bends. ThenV was no further
tranofet of currency 'to th Intel lor throuch
the pubtrrasury today, and this had some
good effect on sentiment. It was pointed out
In this connection that the Government InstI
tittles thus far in November has already
transferred $3. 150,000 to the Interior, compared
with a total for the whole of last November
of si.730.000. The activity of the stockmar
ket diminished a good deal In the late deal
ings, out there were only small concessions
from the best prices and the etoMng was fair

Closing Prices of Wheat Over
a Cent Lower.
SELLING ON LARGE SCALE
Enormous Shipments From Argen
tina thq Most Depressing Factor.
Bull Buying Falls to
Check the Decline. -
CHICAGO. Nov. 10. The weakness of wheat
prevailed throughout the entire session. Sell
ing was active and general the greater part
of the day. At tlras the. bull leaders sup
ported the market openly by liberal purchases,
but efforts of this rort caused only small
temporary rallies. Commission houses, while
fair buyers at Intervals, were compelled to
execute numerous setting orders for stop-loss
account, adding materially to the weakness.
Interest centered In the enormous shipments
of wheat from Argentina. Total exports from
the outh American republic for the past
week were' 2.320.000 bushels, compared with
only 752.000 bushels the corresponding week
a year ago. The market closed weak. May
opened H9?ic lower at SOHflSOHc. sold at
80ic soon after and then declined to Salie.
Final quotations were IH9-1UC lower at SSIi
SSUe.
The Government report chewing a total yield
of 2.700.000.000 bushels of corn In the United
States was chiefly responsible for a sharp
break In the corn pit. The market closed
weak with prices at the lowest point of the
day. May opened H8Vc lower at" 46H948c.
sold between 45?c and 46?i947c and closed
lKfllUc lower at 45i645;c.
The oats market held comparatively steady.
The market closed easy. May opened a ohade
lower at 32Hc. sold between 32Hc and 32Je
and closed 4a9c lower at S2Hc
Provisions were a trifle easier on moderate
Y -"tiling d- iocai packers. At the close. May
por was oft i',jc. lard down 2Hc and ribs
