CHICAGO, Dec. 18.— Wheat was Very dull,
but flrm today. Strong outside and foreign
markets and anticipations of less bearish
•ta/tlstlcs Monday caused some covering by
shorts, resulting in %@%c advance in May.
Other markets also leaned decidedly toward
the bull side, corn and oats advancing about
%c each and provisions closing 2%@7%c
higher. Wheat opened very tame, but quite
firm at about %c higher than it closed the
flay before. May 91% c. It sold a few mo
ments later at 92c and for some time held
at 91%@92c. The week's clearances of wheat
and flour, as reported by Bradstreet's, were
considerably smaller than they have been
running for a long time back. The amount
of the week's clearances from both coasts
is 4,604,000 bu. against 6,266,000 bu a week ago
and 4,222,000 bu the corresponding day of the
year before. The Minneapolis and Duluth
receipts today were 650 cars, against 688 last
week and 376 the corresponding day of 1898.
Chicago received 228 cars, against 35 last
year on the similar day. Minneapolis and
Duluth receipts for the week were 633 cars
less than they were the week previous. It
was reported from Minneapolis that 140 cars
of their receipts today were Armour & Co.'s
wheat, en route from Eureka station to Chi
cago. Weather in Argentine was reported
more favorable. Beerbohm estimated the
world's shipments for the week to Europe
at 8,000,000 bu and expects a decrease in
the quantity on passage. Minneapolis
announced its estimate to its stock of wheat
for the week from 1,000.000 bu Increase as
reported yesterday to from 500,000 bu to 600,
--000 bu increase. In addition to wheat de
livered yesterday afternoon for December
contracts, 1,200,000 bu were delivered out to
day by Armour & Co., and paid for by Allen,
Grier & eller. It had already been taken
for granted, however, by the trade that all
the wheat sold to French-Leiter would be

showed strength. The day's clearances of
wheat and flour were swelled to a total of
590.000 bu the additional information that
New Orleans shipped 205,000 bu wheat and
22,000 bbls of flour, and Galve^ton 56,000 bu
wheat. The market became much firmer in

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.
MINNEAPOLIS, Dee. 18.— Wheat opened
higher and stronger this morning and ruled
comparatively steady throughout the morn
ing session. That being said there is but
little left to be told about the wheat mar
ket today. The much talked of Chicago corn
er in December wheat deters both the specula
tive dealer and the investor. The news of
the day was very meager, as is usual on
Saturady. Liverpool cables quoted wheat
steady at %c higher than yesterday's close,
and was a surprise to the trade on the face
of our weakness of yesterday. Guesses are
being made that fhe visible will show an in
crease of 1,500.000 bushels on Monday. Our
local stocks will show an increase of about

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.
NEW YORK, Dec. 18.— The dry goods dis
trict is the scene of more activity at the
close of the week than was the case at the
opening. The shipments of goods are heavy,
particularly in staple cottons, buyers having
taken goods in large quantities since the re
duction of the last three days. Sellers at
first hands as a rule are paying little at
tention to the future, but are selling freely
wherever they can obtain their prices.
NEW YORK STOCKS.
NEY WORK, Dec. 18.— The rise of prices
was practically uninterrupted during the
short session of the stock exchange today.
Some very sharp net gains are the result,
exceeding 2 per cent in some of the special
ties, over a point in large number of leading
active stocks and a sharp fraction all through
the list. The rise was almost wholly the
result of professional buying, outside inter
est in the market being at a standstill. Bull
operators extended their lines aggressively
and the bears covered heavily. Prices of
Americans were higher in London this morn
ing, that center having become quite per
sistently bullish on the outlook for values
in this country on a long turn. This incited
an advance in the international stocks from
the opening. The specialties were next to
show strength. Manhattan becoming buoyant
on belief that conditions imposed upon the
underground rapid transit project by the
appellate court would be in effect prohibitory.
Local gas stocks enjoyed the benefit of a
rumor that differences had been adjusted
between the interests seeking an amalgama
tion of the gas companies. New Jersey led
a further advance in the coalers on the pre
valent belief that an effective agreement has
been arrived at for restriction of production
and maintenance of prices of products. Sugar
was also quhe buoyant on covering of shorts.
This combination of strength in individual
stocks, due to special causes, would have
been a powerful sustaining factor in itself.
But the incident that determined the tone of
the general speculation and awakened a gen
eral buying movement all through the list
was the report from London, afterwards
shown to be erroneous that over half a mil
lion dollars In gold had been withdrawn from
the Bank of England for shipment to the
United States. Taken in connection with the
easing of the call loan rate yesterday after
noon to 2 per cent and the quantity of funds
offering at that rate, this report had the
effect of dissipating some of the fears of
traders In securities as to the future of the
money market and aggressive buying con
tinued. The weekly bank statement with the
large decrease shown in surplus reserve,
gave only a momentary pause to the up
ward movement; which was then renewed and
continued with a buoyant tone to the close
of the market. Net changes for
the week in prices of stocks are
widest in the coalers, the gains
extending to over 10 points In New Persey
Central, Norfolk & Western pfd, Is over 4
points higher. Otherwise net changes are
mixed and generally within the limit of 2
points. Bonds went up and then went down,
like stocks, but still show net gains, remain
ing In most Issues. Total sales, $15,500,000.
U. 8. 5s have declined % bid, the new 4s
coupon Vi and the registered % during the
week, while the old 4s coup have advanced
% and registered % during the week.
Total sales of stocks today, 173,200 shares
including: Burlington, 14,293; L. & N., 3,040;
Manhattan, 12,520; Missouri Pacific, 7,125; N.
