Increased bull con fidence in a seemingly oversold market gave strength to grains today, and De cember wheat closed %c, December corn %.%c and December oats %c up. Pro visions' closed 7"_c to 22 I*.1 *.- lower. There were both bullish and bearish conditions at the wheat opening which tended to influence the market In both direction.-. Cables" were higher and there was. a marked decrease on passage, which caused December to open -%@!4c to %c.higher at 69% cto 6D%@69%c. Un der the influence of heavy world ship ments and liberal receipts, however, the market eased off to 6S%c. There was some early-, short selling, but on a report of an improvement in the export demand the shorts began to cover. The report of a considerable increase in the world's visibK eased prices for a time, but the bulls rallied and December became more active, closing firm and %c advanced at 69%<?763%c. Receipt-, were 173 cars, three of contract grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 1,384, a total for the three points qf 1,557 cars; against 1,552 last week and"1.173 a year ago.

The seaboard reported -thirty loads taken for export. ■ Cora had a quiet, - narrow market of a' local professional nature. Cables were better at the opening, and there was a report of a depletion of foreign supplies which gave December some strength throughout the session. A fear by shorts of a bull raid helped somewhat. Decem ber sold between 56%_.5£",_c and 57% c, and closed at the latter figure, firm and %_) ">_c advanced. Receipts were 285 cars. "~ Oats were quiet with most of the trad ing for the May account.

Provisions were dull and heavy with the exception of January poik, which had a fairly active market. Prices opened lower on lower hogs and sagged with continued" liquidation in pork.

Some ragged breaks in" the price level of the market resulted, but heavy and con centrated buying 1 was in- evidence all day. As a consequence the decline was check ed and: the latter "part" of the day vwas' given ever to a broad and:comprehensive covering movement which lifted the prices throughout the list, the losses in the railroad list being quite generally re covered .and, largely reduced even.in the weakest* of the industrials." When the market opened a feeling of discourage ment was general, especially because last weeks liquidation had'proven ineffectual to recuperate the conditions of the banks j by reason of the extension of new cred [ its. The completion of the Season of .the interior - movement of currency was still* t to be met, therefore the only-* source from which to supply this 'requirement'" was still further. Uquidatloh in the' stock! market. Foreign exchange continued to advance, precluding. the hope | of". Telief' from that quarter.. The large selling of stocks for London account >' sustained rffio exchange market. -Renewed demoraliza tion in : foreign copper securities arid; forced liquidation in Paris Were the oc casion ,of this foreign selling, 7 and .the prompt decline in 'Amalgamated - Copper here ,gave promise of a continuance of that disturbing influence; Pressure from the lenders of money was "undoubtedly} at the root of the stock market depression, but vulnerable points., in 5 the industrial list boie the brunt of this pressure rath er than the railroad list in general, and the rates for call loans were not disturb ed. There was a growing spirit of skept icism as to the prospect of dividends on industrial common"stocks; the "issuing Or- 5 ganizations cf which depended for success on continued or "evert increased prosper ity. This sentiment toward recent finan cial projects was extended vto^•' the rail road wold by reason of tire; annual show ing of the Chicago, Burlirfgtoft-& Quincy, which was published op Saturday, and which showed. a balance of .a.hings after charges insufficient to nay the interest of newly issued bonds for 'which the stock is collateral. ' St. Paul,, ;IVhiSh sold ex dividend of 3 per - centv'iwasj subject to savage attack and wa3.*.prceVl down 1%. Missouri Pacific lost as much, and some of the cotton and corn carrying railroads were quite weak. The fling of Brook ly Transit, which carried it-down 1%. was apparently based on the; condition, of poor earnings and the midajy^high price. Sugar was weak at the-.-tr.me decline' of 3% oh dread of the. est jpf the war against the . sugar, beet. £ Atphreson led the" " recovery on very confid.ftt xumors .that. the semi-annual dividend rJFte >is to be: increased to 2 per .cent. -There, were pur chases by a single'commission house of several thousand shares, .each, on various stocks around the room. The rally ran between 2 and 3 pointy ..in many of the principal. active stocks- _ftd.«ke demand for Amalgamated Copper showed some. urgency. The, day's net gain. is* a point. * The covering; demand" made a firm clos ing. A renewed advance iri some of the junior Vanderbilts was- a feature of the day. . :. . .. • V'{ t Railroad bonds were weak • early, ,but rallied in sympathy with stocks. Total sales, par value, $2,370,000. United States new 4s declined *4 per- cent on- the __st call. '''■•"-, "■■ .'-J •.'*-"->'-" '_■' :—J y'.y ffAjf STOCKS. Jf]' jfyfify 2?
