Calif or- General Merchandise. NEW YORK, Dec. 1.— To-day'« Btock market ii.ade a rather notable chow of strength and ; rices were up 1 per cent or more. This was •jue in part to the sympathetic effect of move r.ients In special stocks In which a speculative .-ampaiga was going on, but general consider ations also played a part. Of thece special movements the most notable was in the trans rracticn group. The accompanying gossip quite irentrally pointed to a plan with a com i«r-rjj»!islve merger of all the traction facilities vl'Jiin the Greater New York corporate limits dad a supposed share in the control by New York Central and Pennsylvania. Manhattan co:i£plcuously abstained from a share in the movement and was at tlmea below Saturday's level. The dealings in this Btock were rather .light. This gave some color to a supposition that the movement among the other tractions was designed to adjust their valuations to the higher lever already attained by Manhattan. Another conspicuous center of strength was the eoft coal group, especially the north and south roads traversing the region bet ween, the Ohio Rlv<>r and the lakes. Rumors were current of a plan for combining all the railroads in the Nczv York Stock Market. •Receipts of Potatoes (Were very large, aggre gating nearly -12,000 sacks. .Prices -Were; un change'd : and there J was a fair ¦ movement ¦ In fancy | stock. ;*Sweeta were j offering freely at the previously quoted rate. , Three m6re cars camsi in. .Fancy, Onions were In light , supply and firmly ; held, but common offerings were neglected.

(120th Meridian— Pacific Time.) SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 1—5 p. m. CHICAGO, Dec. 1.— The feature to trading in wheat to-day -was the unloading of a big line by the leading long and the consequent throwing en the market of a large amount held by traders who had been following in* his wake. The result was a decline of over a cent in May, while the nearby deliveries were also easier. The news in general was bearish, lower cables, liberal receipts in the Northwest and a large increase In the visible supply be ing the main depressing tactore. Buying by commission houses at the low point caused a rally late in the day, the close being at lower figures, with May %«f»4c off at 75(<}>iS%c. The opening was %c lower to %c higher at 76%c@ •Jo^c, and ranged between i4%c and 75%c. Trading in corn was light and the weakness in wheat affected this market and caused an easier leellng, but toward the end of the session there was a fair demand, and the early Iobs v.-as wholly regained. May closed «c higher at 42* 4 <g!42%c, alter selling between n^w 42%c and 42%«?42%c. t Although mere was llttle'doing In oats, the undertone was firmer, a good commission house demand being the sustaining factor. May closed %@Vic higher at «y 4 ©oi-)fcc. a^ter ranging between 31%c and 32%c. Provisions were quiet and after a slightly higher opening price3 showed a tendency to move downward under scattered selling by longs and on lack of any particular support.
