CMAISQE TAGTICS
NEW .TORfcV Dec 2*.—At
tempts to depress the , stotik :mar
ket the" lflsl few days, having
proved more of lesß abortive,
traders today chanped , their' tat
tles and bought moderately 1 , with
a resultant hardening of prices.
The . improvement was none too
pronounced hnd did not extend to
the entire HGthre list* being cou
fineS to a f'ew ; of tlip leaders and
A number of issues' in the special
Srpup.
If anything, the day's news was
unfavorablei Two of the minof
lines controlled by the. New York
Central, the Rutland ana the Lake
Brie, and western roads again
passed dividends on the preferred
phares. lit keeping with their rec
ords of the last year or tw©,* and
the Pennsylvania company, an
Important part of the Pennsyl
vania railroad system, cut Its
annual dividend from 8 _,to 7 pel'
cent.
Lehlgh Valley wan the strong
est of the railroad Issues, but the
movement In general was of little
significance and enlisted practi
cally no outside interest or sup
port. The day'd business was un
usually Bmall and in the • late
trading the market relapsed into
extreme dullness.
I.iondon was a buyer of the
Harrlman Issues and Reading, ac
cording to report, but the sum
total of operations for that mar
ket was probably under 5,000
shares. The London market mani
fested a cheerful tone on the re
sumption of trading after the
quadruple holiday.
The feature of the" bond market
was ihe increased demand for the
general 4 per cent bonds of the
Atchlson and Northern Pacific
roads at better prices. The bal
ance of tho bond market was
eteady on a moderate volume of
operations.
Total sale*, par value, were
$1 640.000.
United State* government bonds
were unchanged.
NEW YORK, Dec 28.— 8. F.
Hutton & Co.'s wire says: "Bear
ish sentiment In tho Wall street
district was quite responsible for
the further selling: of stocks In
the early session today. Metal
stocks were the features «n the
Hellinp movement, with steel and
copper making new low prices on
this move. While some small
support seemed to be accorded
these securities at the low figures,
the rallying power was not par
ticularly impressive. Railway
stocks showed a sympathetic
move, but were quick to rally In
the later operations of the day,
when professionals attempted to
cover. There was a dearth of
news of any kind that might af
fect the security situation here,
and It can only be said that the
market is marking time at the
present, with bankers', holding
aloof."

BOSTON, Dec. 28.— E. F. Hutton A Co.'s"
wire says: "There Is very little trend to the I
Boston copper chares, trading being confined ;
mostly to odd lots, with the tone showing con- :
eidcrable irropularity. In sympathy with Amal- :
gamated the liit as a whole is inclined to be '<
some weaker than yesterday, but there is no
great significance to the trading. Other depart
ments of the market are a trifle stronger uader
the lead of American telephone, which sold at
142%. There Is considerable investment de
mand for mmy of the home issues, but the mar- ,
ket as a whole is featureless, with the under- I
tone fairly strong." j

well brought In, is doing ' SOO barrels of 14^4

sands, coupled with an enormous gas pressure, is
very promising. .

CHICAGO BOARD OP TRADE
Future Grain and Pro-visions
CIIICAGO. Dec. ' 28.— Disappearance of nearly
3,000,000 bushels from the world's available sup
ply of wheat helped torn the market upward to
day, notwithstanding a good rainfall in the dry
district southwest. \u25a0 The . first . named happening
was unlocked for; the other had been largely dis
counted a full day in advance. ; Compared with
last night, the close was %c higher to H@V«c
decline. The end of trading left corn %c net
lower, oats 4ic to %c. down and provisions off
23c to 37% c. .-, -.;.
Leading longs in wheat bought . the May op
tion, but they sold July. : In consequence the
distant delivery became weak, whereas that near
by, was strong. Some of yesterday's short sell
ers, too, were purchasers at the outset, so much
60, In f net, 'that the riarket was -soon drained.
May i congestion appeared plainly in evidence, al
though the supply . loosened almost invariably on
the slightest . bulge. :. Nevertheless, trade in July
was much larger than heretofore and kept stead
ily s growing. A % less ; favorable • crop outlook In
France; Germany and Great Britain had some in
fluence on. the bull side.' It. was on the news of
the falling ; off In ' the ; world's : available supply,
however, that the -market showed - the greatest
strength. During : the ; session May* ranged from
95% cto 96% c and' closed, Uc np at fiO^c. - :
.Corn : started with an upward tilt, but: with
heavy i consignments and . with little, outlet \u25a0 from
here in a shipping :, way : the .'market eased off.'
May '- fluctuated \u25a0\u25a0 between • 47% c and . 4Sc, ; closing
steady,: at i 47%c, a . net ; loss \u25a0of : %c.' Cash ' corn
was weak. ",. No. 2 yellow finished . at 45%@46c.
I Oats suffered from withdrawal lof elevator de
mand for car 'lots' to' make . Into 'grades suitable
for delivery, on December contracts. May varied
from 33%c | to S4%c. with , final sales at 33%Q
S3TsC.-a loss of %c from last night. - .
Belief I that '* the - packers are making pork to
redellver next month caused material weakness In
all kinds of ' provisions. At the end of the day
pork was down 25c to 37 %c, lard oft 27 %c to 50c
and ribs showed a decline of 17% cto 22% c.

Wheat, Barley and Oats Very Firm
Fresh Fruit Market Is Inactive
in the southwest, cash wheat has bren slow and
weak In all direction*, but the market has rui*a
firm at a modest advance from yesterday s cios»
all day. An exception was at th« very start,
when values were a trifle below yesteTuay s last.
Trade has been small. . Leading longs have again
bought May wheat, trat they have sold July.
Bcnie of yesterday's largest short fellers bcugnt
at the outset and this drained the market. May
Congestion has been more la evidence today, dux
the supply loosen* up almost Invariably <m a
very unimportant bulge. Trade In July wheat
today has. been much largSr/than heretofore and
Is steadily increasing. Minneapolis shipments or
flonr and wheat today were the lightest on the
crop. Kansas City wheat shipments also ''**"
est on crop. * Liverpool closed unchanged. Buua-,
pest V,c lower. Paris Me higher for wheat and
averaging steady for flour. Down itate reports
heavy cut In Cour prices, with the latter at low
est hr many years. $3.77 for first winter patents.
"Corn — Tbe market has ruled easier and very
slow after a firmer start. Latter was largely
due. to the wet and sloppy weather prevailing;
generally over the corn belt. Country sales at
stations are small, but tbe consignments continue
at capacity of cars available, and there Is very
little ; outlet today in . a nhipplne way. Cash
corn was $4e to lower In the sample market.
Some talk of delivery No. S corn on December
contracts at 6c penalty, but this could ; only be
done at a stiff loss today. <\u25a0
"Oats have shown a weaker tone today, al
though the trade has not been large. All false
support has been , withdrawn from the cash mar
ket and the latter reduced ti> a" merchandising
basis by the withdrawal of the elevator demand
for cars to make into standards for delivery on
December contracts. Cash oats were %c to %c
lower and shipping sales wer* 183,000 bushels."
