NEW YORK, Dec. 27.— The trend
toward reaction which dominated
last week's operations in v the
stock market became rather more
pronounced at: the resumption of
business today and resulted in
losses of a point and more in the
bettor known issues,, with more
severe declines in certain special
ties. ' •-- - ,".; \u25a0»' \u25a0. •\u25a0 .
Trading throusrhout the session '
was small in; volume, If surface ,
conditions may, be accepted ..the '
hea\iness of the list "was largely*;
due to the aggressive. short sell- <
ing -by the profe.-«ional group, ]
which only recently was more or.,
less conspicuous for the extent \u25a0
of its commitments on the other '
side. .. . .\u25a0
The closing of- a -local state
bank, .whose troubles are com
monly believed to be an after
math of the panic of 1907, while
in no particular sense a market
factor, was hardly, helpful to the
bull accounts. -The bank's diffi
culties, however, served to call
attention- to the Jatest report of
the state banking department,
which demonstrates- the strong
position of a majority- of these
institutions compared with a year
ago.
The London stock exchange
was closed today and European
markets generally were dull and
featureless.
The bond market was irregular.
Sales, par value, $2,233,000.
United States bonds were un
changed on call.
E. F. Hutton & Co.'s wire says:
"While there was no real news to
affect business or the security
market, some selling occurred by
the room traders in the early half
of the session today as the result
of a small bank failure here, and
while this failure was absolutely
without special significance as re
lates to the general banking, sit
uation, which Is exceedingly
sound, it caused much comment
In speculative quarters, where an
endeavor was made to weaken the
market, but without material ef
fect. . Continued discouraging re
ports from the steel industry out
look were accentuated by-the-im
pression that some sharp cuts in"
steel commodities ye-cm 1 "
after January 1. The selling in
Steel common, however, seemfed to
be traced to professionals \ en
tirely, with only casual support
from banking interests, which
would readily account for . the
heavy market today."

Fnture Grain and Provision*
CHICAGO; Dec. 27.— Predictions of rain or
snow where ; most needed '* in \ the .. winter wheat
belt ; made the -market - here - heavy - today. .There
was . also a ? big increase .of the ; visible supply.
Late sales were %@%c under the previous close.
Corn- finished a > shade ,^to %c. down, oats un
changed' io . decline - and provisions the same
as Saturday night to 20c below.
- Wheat gave way rather slowly. Scattered
liquidated '- and there was. moreover, less
short eellinj. neither on a very, liberal scale. Sup
port was somewhat deliberate, not to say back
ward.- Continued dry. weather in the southwest
gave the market a half hearted higher start, but
moderate sales on the I swelL.resulted in a down
ward movement : that had but a slight Interrup
tion the rest of the day. /
"The fact that Russian shipments we're 'remark,
ably large formed a timely \u25a0 bearish v influence.
Sudden weakening .of corn prices after a firm
and higher opening was also a considerable fac
tor. . . .. _ , - . .
Then came talk of moisture tonight In Mis
souri and farther. beyond; the visible snpply was
shown to have 1 been ; enlarged and Kansas City
reported . consignments -: liberal with ' more to fol
low. \u25a0 May fluctuations ran from 95V>c to 96% c,
with the close firm at 95% c. a net loss of %c.
Holders of corn showed a disposition to unload,
but found no good; buying orders. .The bulk of
arrivals were" low grade, -making the cash mar
ket weak. .No. 2 yellow closed at 46«4@47c.
May ranged between 47% c and 4S%c, finishing
steady but %c net lower at 47% c.
Oats, though Inclined to be sluggish, sagged
a little with other grain. May varied from 34c
to 34% c, and In the end stood lie down at 34<a
34% c \u25a0 ;. ; \u25a0 -. ... " \u25a0 ;..\u25a0

part going to one \u25a0 buyer from Coronado. . Prices
paid ranged from $200 to $300 and the consen
sus of opinion around the ringside was that, ow
ing to the low condition in which the mares were

good quality ami sizp were also passed under the
hammer. -.These sold fully up to Quotations, one
team ' in particular, weighing around 3.200 lbs.
bringing. close to $600. Single horses with style

Butter, Cheese and Err*
- The. egg market was ' ve,ry firm yesterday on
active buying. Extras were 2c higher at 3S%c
a dozen, and, although ' receipts were large over
the holidays, the market was practically bare at
the' close of business yesterday. Storage extras
were easy and 2c lower \u25a0: at : 30c ' a dozen, " The.
butter, market was unsettled. Stocks of strictly
high grade fresh extras had accumlated over the
holidays, and the accumulation, together with
light trading,* caused the : market to drop 3c to
35c a pound. Fresh firsts were In good demand
and •lc higher at ' 80c : a ,: pound. In cheese new
California first flats were Quoted at 14c a pound,
a decline of lc from the old quotation.
Sales on the exchange were as follows:
'. Butter — 10 cases ' of freah extras at Ssc a
pound. •\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0'. . • \u25a0
Eggs — 10 eases of . fresh - extras at 37c, 5 at

. Receipts for three days were 68.400 pounds of
