12 THE COMMERCIAL RECORD. The Flnctuations in Corn Were Lively on the Chicago Board of - Trade. .f - Wheat Also Took on a Vigorous Tone and Went Booming Upward. ' ' — — '"'•- Transactions in the Financial Circles of Wall Street—The General Quotations. Chicago, Dec. 2.— The hands in the dial that marks fluctuations in corn on 'change bobbed about so fast this morning that the onlookers got dizzy. The market opened 1 2 ©%c higher on strong cables. January being quoted at 48& 4 c and ' May at 54V4C. Free realizing by the longs broke May to 53** c. The price crept back to __*_« and galloped from there to 54i_c in sixty seconds. Trade was small on this sharp advance, but the needs of the shorts were urgent and the de mand for investment account was active. By 10:30 May corn was back to 54c. AVheat was barely steady at the opening, but the riotous strength and the playful bullish pranks of the "conntry" in corn infused vigor into it, though of more moderate and dignified form. Trading for the first hour was on a basis of 77"«(_""SVsc for January and S4-*<5JS5c for May. Trade was just decently active. May oats ascended to 33"vsc and broke back to 33V*c all within thirty minutes of the opening. Provisions onened about as they closed last night, but soon after trading began the bears undertook to break the market They raided pork down 25c, lard sc, ribs 10@13«_C. One operator offered any part of 20,000 bbls. May pork at $15.20. The crowd helped itself to what it wanted, and when the speculator stepped out of the pit the price was run up to $15.3212. January lard sold down to $7.40 and January ribs to $7.5712. Before noon wheat had made a gain of nearly 2c a bushel over yesterday's last prices, corn was lVitt?' II2C higher, outs had established an advance of lc, and the* null spirit in 'provisions de veloped staying powers that are to the vet eran speculator inexplicable.

Sterling exchange dull but steady at $4.81 Vi for sixty-day bills, and $I. si' 2 for demand. The stock market to-day was duller than on any day so far this week' but the tone was strong throughout, with decided strength in a few stocks. Lon- don was again a buyer, and the cliques pur chased freely on foreign advices, while pro fessionals offered the only resistance to the advance, though some bulls were moderate sellers, especially in the forenoon. The bear attac-Ks were successfully met, and the short interest, which is very large in Western Union, Union Pacific, Lake Shore, St. Paul and Missouri Pacific, was not reduced to any appreciable extent. St. Paul was the pivotal stock, and the trading in it was very large, while it was notably strong throughout. Union Pacific was next in point of interest and 011 its good showing made the largest advance of the day. Missouri Pacific attracted a good deal of attention, and was strong until the last few minutes, when the gains were lost. The usual dividend is an nounced for the 15th inst. The general list was dull, and for most of the day without special feature, though the tone "was firm throughout. The only weak spot was Wheel- ing & Lake Erie, which reached its lowest price for the week owing to a rumor that the company was about to issue additional stock, but this" is denied by Mr. Dillon, who says that the present stock will be made preferred and placed on a dividend basis. The bank statement for to-morrow was looked forward to with great interest, as a large increase in the reserves, expected on account of the large disbursements, though these may not show fully in the statement. The opening was strong at advances over last evening's final figures of from IS to V 2 per cent gener ally, while Kansas <fc Texas and Jersey Cen tral were exceptional, the hitter being up %. Further gains were made throughout the list, Union Pacific being most noticeable. Lack awanna also attracted some attention, but after 2 o'clock extreme dullness marked the dealings and prices stagnated until the last hour, when realizations sagged the list off small fractions, though the close was steady to firm at slightly under the best prices of the day. Almost everything is higher to-night, but the advances are for fractional amounts only except for Union Pacific which rose 1 '2 :" Louisville &. Nashville. Norfolk & Western preferred and ! St, Paul, one per cent each. Railroad bonds were duil but firm. Sales, $901,000. Clos ing figures generally show small advances. Government bonds were dull and steady.

Dressed poultry is the thing that is in doubt. Large Quantities were on baud immediately after Thanksgiving, and deal ers were fearful of the consequences.

Flour— The Market Kecord says : After the rise in wheat yesterday Minneapolis millers agreed on a 10c rise in* flour and later quota tions were on the higher basis. There is now a very bullish sentiment throughout the West, "regarding prospects for the immediate future as well as for the more distant. In re sponse to thai, sentiment speculation is tak ing hold of all (He leading cereals.- The pro ducts must inevitably follow them to the end. The advance in quotations checked business in flour to-day, but if the wheat markets are sustained the evidence is that, flour buying will soon become active again.
