' i KECOKD CORN t ROl VALUATION Farmers Will Realize Nearly Two Billion Dollars This Heason. WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. The Nation's corn crjp this year was the most valuable ever grown. Bused on prices paid farmers November 1. it is worth nearly $2,000,000,000 $1,913,025,000 in exact figures. In size, it is secDid only to the record crop of 1912. The production was 3,030,509.000 bushels, or 34,000,00 less than the country's previous bigsest corn crop. In a statement the Board of Crop Estimates said: "The preliminary estimate of corn pro duction is 3, 090.000. 000 bushels. This is about 05,000,000 bushels more than forecast in the October 1 report and reflects the gen erally favorable character of the month of October in maturing the crop. The crop is especially short and of poor quality in the area included In Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and North Dakota. "Although the. corn crop bulks large, the quality ls unusually poor in the principal corn surplus states and Northern states, where the crop was caught in the milk or dough state hy an early freeze, causing much light, chaffy grain. Therefore, the actual feeding value of the crop is probably less than the production figures of bushels, considered alone, would indicate. In the ou;hern states, however, the quality of the crop ls generally above average." Estimates of production ef the principal crops were announced today by the Depart ment of Agriculture as follows: Corn, bushels 3.000,309,000 Buckwheat, bushels, 10.:J5n,oio Potatoes, bushels 359,25.1, Sweet potatoes, bushels OG.Goiooo Tobacco, pounds 1.050,025,000 r laxseeu. iiuunu:.. ............. i s.44t.00 Pears, pouna. 11,216,000 Apptes, pounus 70.670. 000 tougar oeets. tons 6,I5S,OuO y.' l 1 1 o r iit?ia.its ui (.tie trups are: Corn, stocks on farms November 1, 96,000, 000 bushels.

BEARS DEPRESS STOCKS AGGRESSIVE SHORT SELLING CAl'SE FOR DKC'LIMIS, Vote to Enffland Una No Effort on Speculative Sentiment Trade w Favorable. NEW YORK, Nov. 8. Until the closin; hour tho most conspicuous feature of to day's stock market was Its relative dull ness. Trading was altogether professional, with & moderateupward trend after the ir regular opening. Ill the last 00 minutes the list developed sudden weakness, which not only complete ly obliterated previous gains, but scored soma severe net losses. Chief among these were Canadian pacific, in the railroad group, and 1'i.ited states Steel among the leading industrials. Canadian fell from its top price of l7Vs to 1S1., closing at ISS. United Ktate Steel, which early In the day showed a gain of almost a point at H6"V fell to S4 and closed a mere fraction higher. The Harrimans. Atchison, oreat Northern. New Ycrk Central and Krie substituted gains of a point or more with losses of as much. Baldwin locomotive and Crucible Steel were materially lower, as were Wewt inghouse and other shares of the same class. Washington's note to England seemed to have no effect in the early dealings, apart from London's lower prices for Americans. For want of some more tangible reason, tile avalanche of selling was attributed to advices from Washington indicating that the Federal Administration might meet with formidable opposition in its proposed policy of "preparedness." In all probabil ity, however, the reversal was accelerated by aggressive short selling. Total sale amounted to S25,0K shares. General news of the day embraced re ports from Chicago and other Important railroad centers showing an increase of ton. nage. agricultural products especially, tax ing carrying capacity. Bonds were steady during the greater part of the session, but weakened with stocks. Total shares par value amounted to $.1,735,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

About the only important influence that tended to lift tho wheat market was a no tice of some European demand at Omaha for shipment by way of the Gulf of Mexico. Corn weakened, owing to bearish forecasts of the Government crop report. A sajr In the oats market came about chiefly from sympathy with corn. Eastern demand was only fair.
