DEMAND FOR SEED POTATOES GOOD
Movement to South Hindered by Car
Sbortug-e; Farmers Firm.
The demand for potatoes for shipment
gouth Is opening up strongur, but the move
ment Is hindered by the car shortage.
Buyers for the California trade want seed
stock and are offering up $1.73 for the
best grade. Farmers are still Inclined to
hold back.
Carlot shipments throughout the coun
try continue above the 10.000 mark and
are one-third heavier than a year ago.
Minnesota and North Dakota are the
heaviest western shipping states and Maine
and New York in the eastern section.
These four states have furnished more
than half the week's supply. The season's
potato shipment to October 22 comprised
111,709 carloads, compared with (S8.3T3
last season. The four years' average of
shipments after October 22 Is about 63,000
cars, but last season, as a result of the
heavy crop of 10-0. there were shipped
107,421 cars after October 22. If later
shipments are to conform more nearly to
the average, as would be anticipated with
a crop 25,0uo.o00 bushels below average
yield, the carlot movement during the ret
of the season would proceed In much
lighter volume. A soason'a total at four-y-ar
a-raKo of 171. 17 would leave only
about 2000 cars per week for the rest of
the shipping season.
Prices In eastern consuming centers have
held firm, sacked round whites ranging
$2 25 to $2.43 per 100 pounds, Maine Green
Mountains closing at $2.10 to $2.35 and
Maine Irish Cobblers at $l.'.H to $2.13.
Middle western markets showed a weaker
tone. Car'.ot sales in Chicago and Kansas
City drcitned 15 to 25 cents, to a closing

NEW YORK, Oct. 28. Stocks were
firm to strong during the daye short
session, but the market continued to be
influenced by technical consiaerauons.
Foreign oils showed some of the recent
strength, domestio Issues easing under
leaiizing sales.
Independent steels and shippings re
sponded to moderate accumulation, the
former again owing their prominence to
rumors of mergers.
Investment rails receded slightly at the
outset, hardening later.
Changes among specialties resulted
largely from the customary week-end
settlement of speculative accounts, but
gains prevailed at the steady dose. Sales
were 375,000 shares.
Trading in bonds was light, most of
the Liberty issues showing gains, while
victory notes established new high quota
tions tor the year. Railroad and industrial
bonds were mixed, but some of the for
eign group, particularly United Kingdoms
of 1037. were strong. Total sales par
value $6,175,000.
Last week's moderate deficit In actual
reserves of the clearing house was can
celed by this week's cash gain of $18,UUU.
000 and loans showed a further decrease
of $31,b8a,0U0. making a total contraction
of about $105,000,000 for the past fort
night. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

SELXIXG FOR PROFITS CAUSES
SLUMP AT CLOSE.
Chicago Market Ruled by Profes
sionals Throughout Day ;
Coarse Grains Ivower.
CHICAGO, Oct. 2tL A slump In wheat
In th final minutes of trading pulled
down ths sntirs list today. Wheat and
corn closed to Ho net lower; oats were
oft to He, and provisions Taxied from
unchanged to Ttto lower.
Local professionals ruled ths wheat pit
through most of the short session. An
Initial dip and recovery were followed by
steadily Increased buying when, profes
sionals found offerings were light. This
sarried wheat to lo over ths opening,
but when the profit-taking started there
was a sharp drop as it developed that
Che northwest had been putting wheat into
the pit on every bulge and there was a
surplus.
Some bullish sentiment was created by
an estimate that the country's exportable
surplus had been reduced to 64. 000 . 000
bushels. To offset this, export and mill
ing demands were slow and there was a
report that southwestern mills might shut
down because of absence of demand for
floor.
Corn was firm early and started to
climb with wheat, but tumbled readily
under the week-end evening up trade. Pri
vate reports on farm reserves, scheduled
for Mondsy, were forecast as showing rec
ord holdings.
Oats were so dull that they merely fol
lowed other grains.
Most of the trade In provisions was
In lard, prices weakening to conform to
live hog market condition An opposing
factor was a report of good export demand
from England,
The Chicago grain letter, received yester
day by the Overbeck fc Cooke company of
Portland, follows:
Wheat had a strong tone until late in
the session, when the market was com
pelled to absorb considerable selling In the
way of profit-taking over the weeto-end.
The news was quite bullish, except that
Minneapolis reported a poor flour trade.
Attention is be In called to small arrivals
al all winter wheat markets, emphasising
the belief that the bulk of the wheat has
bnen marketed and that the remainder
will not be pressed for sale. The cash
market was strong at recent gains on ths
futures. An eastern news agency had a
report to the effect that Germany had
arranged a credit of $1,000,000,000 In the
United States, but It could not be con
firmed. Another decrease in the visible
supply statement Monday would substan
tiate the Idea that the position ot wheat
has reverwd Itself.
Corn Selling. by cash houses In a dull
market gave a 'heavy undertone, although
the decline was small and not considered
significant by tho?e who have assumed a
bullish attitude. Receipts were estimated
al 140 cars and the cash market started
strong, but eased off again at the close.
Country offerings to arrive were light. "We
have faith in the stability of this market
at present levels.
Oats ruled rather easy, due to selling
of December in the way of liquidation and
ot May by northwestern Interests, pre
sumably hedging. The cash demand was
fully equal to the offerings and prices were
steady to higher.
Rye There was a firmer tone to the
market for rye futures, with buying by
the east and removing of hedges by Du
luth, indicating export business.
Leading futures ranged a follows:

LONDON ISSUES HERRING CALL
CuususJl Conditions Believed Result of
Mine Explosions.
VANCOUVER. B. C, Oct. 20. (Special.)
Fishing interests here have been In re
ceipt of cables during the past week from
London asking about the herring supply
here and what the prospects would be for
taking on orders from the British markets
this winter.
This Is believed to be the first time
in history that the British market has
called on Canada for herring. Scotch
cured herring has been a big export Item
from the British Isles, but the activity of
mine operations during the war Is said
by the fish authorities of the United King
dom to have done much to reduce the
quantity of herring in waters adjacent to
Europe.
Herring require from four to five years
to mature after spawning.
Coffee Futures Stronger.
NEW YORK, Oct. 29. There was a re

later deliveries did not fully recover thetr
losses. The market opened 5 to 12 points
higher with the more active positions sell
