EASTERN MARKETS
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
NEW YORJC Dec. 6.— Today's stock market lacked much of the ani
mation of that of yesterday, but was even more irregular in its move
ments. The tendency, until near the end of the day was to a higher
level, but without the vigor of the spurts which carried up prices yester
day. The heavy tone at the outset was attributed to the news of the clos
ing of a national bank at Pittsburg. The effect was shorter lived and
less pronounced than that of the Kansas City failure of the day before
and, in fact, the suspension was soon seen to be of much less importance.
The Kansas City failure, on the other hand, continued to create a bad
impression, and its influence extended to foreign markets. Other un
fevorable influences on stocks were the sustained premium on currency,
which was paid on some large amounts during the day, and a rather
firmer tone of the call money market. The recovery in the currency
premium was said to be due partly to the demand for weekly payrolls.
The Pittsburg bank failure also had some influence on the demand for
currency. It is evident that so long as cash resources are so much held
in smaller banks throughout the country, as the responses to the ; comp
troller's call reveals that they are, there will be a vast curtailmc^ of the
usual facilities of exchange by checks on the banks, in the central por
tions. The lack of the usual resources for use of such partial substitutes
for money, and which perform many of the functions of money In normal
conditions of credit, undoubtedly accounts in large part for the persistence
of the premium on currency. Until the banks outside of the central re
serve cities avail themselves of their privilege under the banking law of
each depositing a half or two-fifths of their reserves in the central re
ftrve banks, the dislocation of the domestic exchange will continue to a
greater or less extent. The significant facts in the day's news in this con
nection were the fall to par in the New York exchange rate at Chicago
for the first time since the closing of the Knickerbocker trust company
ar.dNa decline to a discount of the New York exchange at Boston. The
hardening of the call money rate may have had a connection with the
payment of the $3,000,000 installment on Great Northern new stock, which
was made today. It has not escaped notice that the sudden rise in Hill
stocks, which started the rally in stocks, has come very opportunely for
stock holders who had the-payment to make today and one of $11,625,000
on January 1 for an installment of subscriptions to Northern Pacific
new stock. The_ expanded dealings in stocks, which have accompanied the
week's rise in prices must also have increased the borrowings of funds on
call . The estimates of the week's^ currency movement gave nothing to ac
count for the firmer tone of call funds, a liberal cash gain by the banks
being indicated. The shipments to the interior were the smallest since
the heavy demands in that direction developed, and the continued re
ceipts of imported gold made more than an offset, the net gain resulting
being apparently upward of $6,000,000. The week's operations in stocks
seem to promise an expansion of the loan item, but a substantial reduc
tion of the deficit in the legal reserve of the banks is hoped for in tomor
row's bank statement The market showed the effect of the large reduction
ia the outstanding short interest in growing degree as the day progressed,
snd closed heavily with surprisingly small net changes, considring the day's
active fluctuations.
Londs were firm. Total sales, p ar value, $4v730,000.
United States 2s advanced \X a "d the 4s # per cent on call.

TOD COPPER STOCKS
BOSTON, Deo. 6. — Hutton's wire says: "The
course of tbe market today was most satlsfac*
lory; all the profit taking was absorbed anally
and tbe close was at better prices than last
night. Am^samated was again under pressure
and no one yet can guess the reason. All the
local coppers were dull but strong. When Amal
gamated does get into line and advances as it
should it will be very easy, to advance, tha Bos
ton market 10 points."

Nevr Tork Financial Notes
NEW YORK. Dec. 6. — London early market
lower. Bullish work is likely to continue in
the stock market with specific recessions. Th«
rapidity is due entirely to the nervousness of
the ehorte, according: to Investigations. ) As
soon as tlic major portion of these bear com
mittments are retired it is probable that the
excitement will subside and reactions be more
i frequent. The advocated policy of taking up
comparatively dormant issues proved profitable
in yesterday's • market to those who followed
it. and brokers believe it wilt still be advisable
to pursu* this method conservatively. ! Pur
chases on recessions of moderate extent, as
stated, win be far preferable to rushing along
with short*.
Condition of the Treasury
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.— Today's statement
of the treasury balances in the general fund
stows: Available cash balances, $249,961,155;*
g<.»ld coin and bullion, $81,643,371; gold certifi
cates. $62,612,690.
A'evr York Cotton Market
NEW YORK, Dec. 6. — Hutton's wir© says:
Tbe local market opened steady at 8 points de
cline, which was better than was due on cables.
The trading was quite active and large. There
was bull support from the start that took . the
price up to a high point. As to the advance,
everybody is bullish on It and the bears »m
afraid to sell at it. About the only sailing is
for profits. Tbe spot i situation is strong and
there is -an active, demand. . There is a tip out
that some one has the ginners* report, . also the
government report, but brokers take- no stock in
it. They believe the pinners' report, due Mon
day at the opening, will be bullish compared
with last year, but ll%c discounts all such,
and as to the government crop report, due Tues
day at 1 o'clock, that it will be more bearish
than the trade is looking for. Tbe traders are
much mixed and are guessing all the way from
11,250.000 to 12,000,000 bales. It. Is a broad
and active market. I
Greene says the bull crowd ar» 'long up to
their necks and are trying to get prices trp, but
they are likely to turn at any moment and throw
large blocks on tbe market, and there being no
large short interest prices would then probably
break. Ideas. on the forthcoming glnners' report
range from 5,200,000 to 8,500,000 bales ginned,
and on the government report from 11,400,000 to
12,000,000 bales for the crop.

*" Future Grain and Provisions
CHICAGO, Dec. 6. — Decreased stocks of wheat
in the northwest and the firmness of the stock
market had a strengthening Influence today on
the local wheat market, the May delivery clos
ing at a gain of %@^c. Corn was off tic °
Oats were a shade higher. Provisions were
10@27%c lower.
,• The wheat market was inclined to be w«ak at
the start, owing to . advices from Argentina to
tbe effect that harvesting is progressing favor
ably and that the crop is in good condition. The
suspension of another national bank also had
a depressing effect during the first hour. A
moderate advance at Liverpool, however, held
New York wouldbe sellers In check and conse
quently trading was of a light volume. The
market developed considerable firmness toward
the middle of the day because of sharp ad
vances at Minneapolis and Winnipeg, due to
depleted stocks of wheat at those centers.
The 6trength of the stock list and the an
nouncement that all depositors of the bank that
closed its doors today will be paid la full im
parted some strength, to wheat. Tb« close was
firm.
May opened H@%c lower «t $t.01i4@1.01%.
sold at $1.01 and then adranced to $1.02%. Tbe
close was at $1.01%@1.01%. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 6,200,000 bushels.
Exports for the week as shown by Bradstreets
were equal to 6,200.000. Primary receipts were
986,000 bushels, compared with 'B27,ooo busbela
the corresponding day a year ago.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re
ceipts of 593 cars, against 1,546 cars last week
and 643 cars a year ago. .
Trading in corn was dull : and the market wss
rather weak all day. A decline in live hogs,
liberal receipts and a falling off in demand for
cash corn were the principal bearish Influences.
The close . was easy. May opened unchanged to
fee lower at 56%©56% c, sold at 56% c and then
declined to 66% c. The close was at 56&»c.
Local receipt* were 181 cars with seven of con
tract grade. . .
Oats were quiet but steady, owing to moderate
purchases by a leading bull. May opened a
shade lower to a shade higher at 53%®53^5C
\u25a0old between 53i4@53%c and closed at 53% c.
Local receipts were 133 cars.
Provisions were weak on selling by pit trad
ers, which was based on a heavier movement of
live hogs. At the close May pork was off 27% c
at $18.07%. Lard was down 10c at $7.90. Ribs,
were 15@17%c lower at $7.

LOCAL MARKETS
San Francisco Money Market
The local market continued qulat yesterday,
with bankers - reporting conditions steadily im
proving. Forward exs of * Calif ornia produce to
eastern and other consuming markets are receiv
ing all necessary accommodation from their
bankers, and the products of the state are there
fore moving forward freely. There Is plenty of
money on hand to finance the. taxes, which do
not become delinquent until the last of January,
so this matter is giving the banks very little
concern. Rates for loans and exchange exhibit
but few variations, and those narrow. The bank
failures at Kansas City and Pittsburg have no
effect on this market
Silver wss «4c lower, i Paris exchantr« on Lon
don and New Xork on Paris were higher. Do
mestic rates stood as before.
The bankers are not concerned oxer tbe at
tempt at Sacramento to counterfeit the Oakland
clearing house certificates. They say that th«
Oakland certificates were on plain white paper.
But the San Francisco certificates ar«» an entirely
different proposition. • In the first place they are
lithographed on tinted i paper like the. United
States note*, with a most delicate.- Intricate and
complex pattern, extremely difficult to imitate.
Then again the San Francisco banks have bought
up all of this bank note paper and no counter
feiter can get hold of any. Furthermore, in or
der to successfully counterfeit our local certifl- :
cates would require months in the preparation
of machinery and the elaborate equipment neces
sary, and the certificates will all be retired and
out of circulation before all this elaborate equip
ment could bo got ready. The clearing bouse
authorities accordingly regard this Sacramento
proceeding with equanimity.'
Internal Revenue Collections
. In November the collections of Internal rev
enu«s in tbe first district of California, - which
includes San Francisco, were as follows:

Total $818,828.67
Last mouth's collections, - compared with No
vember, ' 1906, show a decrease of nearly 21 per
cent, or $53,417, . the collections a year ago
being $402,245. According to the internal rev
enue officials the deficit in the collections is
more apparent than roal, as in miny Instances
payments were not made with the customary
promptness t owing to the current scarcity of
money. .

Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables
Business in green produce, which ia nearly al
ways quiet on Friday, was more than ordi
narily dull yesterday, as the wet weather ham
pered trade by keeping many buyers away
from the market. Prices were weak as a rule,
onions and choice tomatoes alone being firm oa
light supplies. Buyers were purchasing spar
ingly of southern yegetables. and the limited
supplies of p«as, beans and peppers proved more
than sufficient for current needs. Egg plant
from the Los Angeles region was offering at
10igl2Vic per pound but found few takers,
while summer squash from the same source and
hothouse cucumbers were slow of sale. There
was no Improvement In the potato market, sjp
pUes of everything being large and the demand
light.

I Poultry- and Game
The poultry market was very liberally snp
plied yesterday, there being two more cars uf
western chickens on hand besides about 60 coops
\u25a0from state points and quite a carry-over from
the preceding day. Retailers were paying but
little attention to the market and even large
fat hens and frying and broiling chlckena. which
bad been In f sir request, were Inclined to drag.
Yesterday's arrivals from the middle west
brought the total receipts from that source for
the week up to six cars, altogether too much
for the market la these quiet times. Receipts
of dressed turkeys were quite large, being near
ly three tons, but prices held steady for choice
stock. Game -was In free supply and rather
quiet, with prices for wild ducks inclined to
easiness.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs
Fresh extra eggs recovered the !S«£c l^st on
the preceding dsy, closing firm on the exchange
at 49c bid, and fresh firsts were also higher at
42% c a dosen, an advance of 2^c. It devel
oped that the pressure to sell on Thursday was
111 adTlsed, as yesterday's arrivals were light
and the proportion of extras In the receipts waa
much smaller than some receivers seemed to
have expected. There was nothing whatever
doing in tfresh seconds or thirds, and storage
goods were also neglected.
There was some liberal selliar of eitra but
ter on the exchange, but all of the stock
offered was quickly taken and the price was
easily maintained. Cheese was firm, with sell
ers 'asking - a slight advance for fancy local
flats on the exchange.
The following sales were made on the ex
change:
Butter — 30 cases of fresh extras at S2'--jc
and 50 cases at 82c per pound.
Kggs— 6 cases of fresh at i4s>sc snd 5 at
M7Uc: close firm at 49c bid and 50c asked.
Receipts were 15.000 lbs butter, 89,300 lbs
cheese and 417 esses eggs.
The following are the official quotations «s
established by sales, bids and offers on the
floor of the dairy exchange. . „ Prices on the
street, while governed by the exchange quota

Deciduous and Citrus Fruits
Testexday was a very quiet day In the frnlt
market, there being no Inquiry of any conse
quence for anything on regular local account and
buying ' for shipment on the - Honolulu steamer
was much lighter than expected. In the apple
department fine Spltsenbergs were still a firm
feature on light stocks, while all of the other
varieties were plentiful and weak, with sellers
wtlllng to shade prices to buyers of round lot).
Everything In the citrus line was quiet, with
a heavy tone prevailing, and oranges would
probably have been lower but for the fact that
nearly all of the supplies were purchased at
stiff - figures In the growing districts. Pears
and persimmons were dull and largely nominal,
while grapes held steady on small arrivals. Only
one chest of : strawberries came In from nearby
districts. They were of the Longworth variety
and were peddled out at the flat rate of 75c a
drawer. Ten crates of large strawberries were
received from Los Angeles and a few sales were
reported at $2.50 \u25a0 a crate.
