SEATTLE. Nov. 20. (Special.) A sweet

The Retail Grocers' Association has asked
the State l'nre Food Commistit oners to en

Contradictory Reports From Argen
tina Liberal Sales for Export
at Piilnth Domestic
Crop News.
CHICAGO. Nov. 20. Nervousness charac
terlsoad trading In the wheat pit and prices
nuctuated over a range of 1 cv-nt. The
prvalliog tendW-ncy was toward higher
prlcea. Liberal receipts caused several set
backs, but each decline was met by urgen
buying by shorts, which resulted In a fresh
rally. Argentine advices and th-a continued
dry weather in this country were the prin
cipal strengthening Influences. One of the
Argentine reports claimed that not more
than 90.000.000 bushels of wheat will be
available for export from this year's crop,
while another dispatch said that frost had
been reported in some localities. The bears
derived some satisfaction from still another
rport. which estimated the exportable sur-
plus of wheat from Argentina at 149.tOft.om
bushels. Heavy receipts, .both In the North
west and Southwest also tended to inspire
some swiling throughout the day. Demand
for cash wheat in Hie local market was
dull and prices were steady. iuluth re
ported export sales aggregating 250.000
bushels, mostly of durum and low-grado
Manitoba wheat. The market closed strong
with prlcea near the top with December
at $1.04 and May at $1. OSS
Corn was bullishly influenced by the com
paratively small receipts, arrivals being
very light considering the excellent weather
now prevailing for the movement. The mar
ket closed firm, with prices up s H JJc to
Sc. Final quotations on December were
at 63 Sc and May at S3 i.e.
Oats were firm all day. The market
closed stromr. with prices up jWHc com
pared with previous cloa--. December closed
at 49h-ac and May at Sl'c.
Provisions were active and the market waa
firm, especially for pork and lard. At the
close prices were up 5&r7Wc to 201 2Jt le.

STOCKS FILL SHARPLY
ALL SUPPORT APPARENTLY
WITHDRAWN- FROM MARKET.
Shorts Make Fierce Raid on Prices,
but Near the Close Decline
Is Checked.
NEW TORK, Nov. 20. The reactionary
force wbtch. baa been gathering strength in
the ato-k market for several days caused a
sharp fall in prices today. The declines
trained such headway as to lead to a strong;
upward reaction in the latter part of the day
on the assumption that weak accounta had
been cleared away.
There was no change in the favorable na
ture of the news from all points of the pix-K-rew
of industry and business toward restora
tion. Yet prices crumbled in helpless fash
ion and with increasing velocity, after the
invariable manner of 'ncursiona upon a weak
speculative position. The fact that the float
ing market supply of stocks has been passing
from wronger to weaker hands for over two
week, past has been a subject of general ob
servation. Tha proceas of realizing profits was easy at
first, with the substantial Inrush of new buy
ers, after the election uncertainties were out
of the way. It was helped at a later stage
by artificial supporting measures, aa has been
pointed out. such as bidding up of a few ae
lected individual stocjts with unrealized ru
mors of Important developments pending which
were to affect these special stocks. The de
creasing aupport of the market waa obvloua
? yesterday and led to the auspiclon that spec
ulative realizing by the organized market
leaders has been pretty well completed. Today
the supporting tactics were, almost abandoned
and the market was left to take care of Itaelf
until the fierce onslaught of the shorts at
the last.
The decline, once In furce. the existence of
numerous weakly margined accounts waa dis
closed, which were forced to sell by the fall
in prices. Stop-loss orders were encountered
also, 'placed aa a precaution below the market
by those who have been distrustful of its sta
bility. The bear party in the speculation,
which has been quiescent for weeks, plucked
up courage In view of the-manifest deteriora
tion in the position of the market. There has
b-en a marked falling off in the volume of
outside buying orders for atocks since the. ad
vance in prices halted. It is the tost of the
r lvancing tendency which attracts much buy
ing of this daes and a fall In prices brings
In seller from ecatttTed sources who are dis
couraged by the failure oz profits to accrue
on the holdings.
While there wpre no unfavorable news de
velopment which could serve a an active
factor in precipitating the selling, the fact
of the reaction in stock, directed attention to
some circumstances ' which were ignored dur
ing the advance. For Instance, there wer in
creased apprehensions over the effects of the
movement to revise the tariff. Advices of po
litical developments were regarded aa indicat
ing more drastic action in thla direction than
haa b-n supposed likely.
Time money was called soft in tone, and
tha known movements of money promised a
substantia) cash gain for the banks on -the
week. The strong tone at the cloas was
caused by the retreat of the shorts, who
feared that they had been led Into a trap by
the bull element, helping the appearance of
weakness in the market.
Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value.
H. .44. 000. United Statea bond, were un

3Ianufacturing Plants Increase
Their Capacity and Extensive
Plans for the Future Made.
Fewer Idle Cars.
NEW YORK, Nor. 20. R. ' G. Dunn A
Co.'s weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Gains are almost universal, every week
surpassing Its predecessor in volume of trade
while manufacturing plants increase active
capacity and confidence is finding expres
sion In extensive plans for the future.
At many pornts seasonable weather ha
stimulated demand for Winter goods, and
there Is a gratifying change for the better
In regard to the promptness 01 collections.
Som-3 sections are backward. however,
either because the temperatures continue
too high or on account of the failure to
market crops promptly.
Frequent evidences of depleted stocks in
the hands of dealers are noted, especially
when shipping departments work overtime in
order to make sufficiently prompt doliveries.
Hides are stronger, but the upward ten
dency of packer stock may be checked by
the increasing receipts of cattle.
SMAI.l.KR KIMBER OF IDI.K CARS.
Trade Expanding In Wholesale and .lobbing
Lines.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. Bradstreefs to
morrow will say:
Enlargement and advancement are still
the dominant influences in trade and the
volume of orders booked by wholesalers
and manufacturers continues large, partic
ularly in the commercial and manufactur
ing centers of the North, Kast p.nd West,
still, certain evidences of irreguiarity aim
found in the teports that mild weather is
retarding sales of Winter goods at retail
in the above sections, and Southern advices
are -that improvement in that section is
rather slower than expected and that low
cotton prices and the holding of that pro
duct by the producers ana checking trade
and collections.
Idle cares are reported growing fewer in
number rapidly. Lumber Is qulter and
flour in less oVimand for export. In whole
sale and jobbing lines, north, east and
west reports are generally that trade Is ex
panding that Spring purchases are increas
ing, and that stocks in final distributors'
hands ana light.

appetite, swelling in the lower limbs, pains
in the calves of the leg, swelling and pain
