CHICAGO, Dec. —A holiday dullness
resulted today. Wheat closed Vie lower;,
corn, %@%c higher; oats a shade lower
and provisions 2%c improved- ' *
Wheat was dull and uninteresting mar
ket, the proximity of the holiday season
exerting Its customary quieting influence
over speculators. May opened unchanged
to %C lower at 73% cto 73*__c. the bull con
tingent, having imbibed a draught of en
couragement from the Liverpool market,
which showed a shade less decline than
in the prices here yesterday. There was
little demand for wheat, however, and
during the forenoon the market dropped,
to 73c. At this figure commission houses
bought moderately, probably for sho-ts
who wanted: to even up-their trades for
the Christmas cessation of business. Near
the end of the session the market ruled
steadier ,on--a profivct. of a visible de
crease au-l May rallied -to 73% c, at which
the market closed, %c under yesterday.
Seaboard- clearances in wheat* and-flour
! were equal t0353,A00 bu. Primary receipts
;. aggregated 751.C00 bu, compared with'4s7,
--\ 000 bu last year. Minneapolis and Du
\luth reported 461 cars, against 137 cars
last week and "S5 cars a year ago. Do
tal receipts were 132 cars, 34 of "contract
grade. New York reported 19 :=*-ds taken
lor export. ■* -
Corn was dull, finding only a narrow
professional market. Light country of
ferings sustained prices,'although the un
dertone was rather easy on favorable
weather. Receipts were 374 cars, none of
contract ■ grade. December sold between
3G%c and ."7c. and closed %C higher at 27c..
May-ranged between- 35?4c and 36c, and
closed 'all.;- up at 36c.
Oats ruled extremely dull, with the tone
easier in .sympathy with wheat. May sold
j between "23% c and y,y-. and closed a
■ shade down at 23%<_?23%c. , Receipts were
53 cars. :' ". ■[.."-
Provisions were dull and steady, prices^
being maintained chiefly by a demands
for lard and ribs, both an influential op
erator. January pork sold between $12.; 5
and $32.25, and closed 2V_,c higher at*
$12.2714: January lard, between $6.92>,2 and
- $6-90, (dosing 2 ]«. cup at $.i,_!o, and January

— MINNEAPOLIS.
MINNEAPOLIS. Dec- 14.—Wheat was
dull but the market held well, consider-'
ing the fact that there were several
bearish items to be dealt with. The
Argentine came forward Cs a liberal
' shipper of wheat again, the movement
or the week being 712,000 bushels, against
200,0000 Isat week. The southwest move
ment continues free, 71,000 bushels against
20,000 last year. The northwest, move
— ment was large, 414 cars at Minneapolis
against 288 last' year, 4S at Duluth against
"ICO. The primary receipts were much
heavier thai) . last year, 776,000 bushels
against 457.000. With this news to carry
ihe market held steady up to'noon. May
wheat opened at 74c, touched 73%@73%c
; nd rallied to 73% c. There was quiet
mpport offered. But the market was not
in the least active and barring the stead
iness it was not particularly suggestive.
The dullness held to the close and last
— rices were firm with May at 74c bid,
._:C higher than yesterday.
Receipts ran heavier than expected and
cash offerings were larger. There was no
increase in receipts of milling wheat, and
ie quantity of No. 1 northern in sight
was proportionately light. Much of the
wheat was low grade, some of it very
poor. Millers were-fair buyers^ They
wcr out for dry wheat and passed every
thing with a suspicion of dampness.
No. .3 was in demand for prime lots at
top prices for the grade. Poor. No. 3 was
quiet. The market shows the same un
satisfactory tone on the damp low grades.
No. 1 northern sold at lc under May on
the average. No. 2 was weak and sold
lower relatively than at any time since
trading began on the May basis, good
dry No. 2 going, at 3%c under May. The
average price was 70c,.a few cars brought
71c and others sold 5c under May, around
69c. Rejected ranged from 52. to 60c and
no grade 50 to 55c with an occasional car
around 59@60c.

--: METAL MARKET—New York, Dec. 14,
—There was a lack of important business
in all lines of the metal" trade. Today's
market ruled generally quiet, with special
important features. Advices from abroad
lacked incentive in either dire .tion where
prices for tin in London remained un
changed, with the demand at prevail
rates confined to supplying the immediate
wants' of. .buyers on the ba?is of 117.10s ;\
the situation locally was dull and nomi
nally unchanged at $26 75.f0r spot. Ccppar
in London was "0.. higher,, owing to a
falling off in arrivals, and closed firm at
7!%s 2d. This factor failed to influence
local traders, and our market ruled dull
and unchanged at $17 for Lake Superior
and 16 r-ic for casting copper and electro
lite, with sellers at those figures. Lead
nominally $4.37%, with sales of only small 1
lots reported. In London, however, prices I
were again lower, reaching £16. Spelt !
was dull, with business small at $4.15.14.20. J
London was quoted, at 18.155. Domestic!
iron markets were dull and featureless
at-unchanged prices. Advices from Eng
lish markets again showed further losses
at Glasgow and Middleboro. Closing
prices were 60c 2d and 53. ffd, respectively. :

CATTLE—The " has been much
greater the- supply in the stock cat
tle division this week. Many orders and
many buyers h4v& had to be tufned away
owing to the ; light, receipts of cattle and
the receipt? -have continued light each
day, in spite- of the fact -that our market
shows great improvement. Practically
all kinds of gbod'^Quality'stock'Tand feed
ing cattle and stock; calves are selling
25c better than last week, and: it has
been an .easy matter fe-make sales at the
advance."; The common cattle are still
moving slow, but they are a little easier
sale, and prices are a shade better. Kill
ing cattle of all" kinds are selling 10c
lower than last week, but the demand is
good at the lower/ prises, and packers
are cleaning ther yardyrfaily. i Good milch
cows are ready sale at steady prices. ' •

a solution of the market enigma was of

clusively- shown by-the known moves "of:
money has been offset: by. a gain of over .1
$4,000,000 from some -local .source.. This
intimation, coming on-top of a .series of
favorable developments threw the market- -
into a state or boiling animation and' I
buoyancy: The -■.eager-? buying . .lemaa . j
came from all sources, professional bears
■ who .were, short of the market, competing"
: anxiously with the,.rampant bulls, who
distributed their buying bi\l_._■.-. with a
lavish hand all -through the list. The'
contrast was a striking "one, .with the con
ditions at the : close last night, ; wh.n not
even the phenomenal advance in the E:ie
stocks was able .to. overcome the unexM
ness of speculators- over the palpable
showing of the absorption ' by. the sub*

in the early deal.ings.. ajtlvueli the out-

inf:ucncc.and was helped by this morn--'
jink's - announcement. cf, the a. cession 01.

i interest or ownership could be traced. It
i would be- useless to . try-; to specify or
I classify the final "deyejoprntnt. of the . /
i-movement, as practi: ally tho whole mar
i ket responded. Even the .ndustr'als an.
! rpecialties which hung back in the early

:.4 points and a long, list' of railroad.stocks
advanced from 1 to 3-^oiftts.; Just what
is the source of the sf.ecl.il. movement of
cash which has offset the week's'outto .
to the subtreasury is not:, definitely dh- '■ .
cjored., but the :belief is general that it Is
connected with the payment,of the St.n-,
dard Oil dividend, which was due tomor
row and which amounts to $10,000.& iO. The
fact .that Amalgamated/. Copper was
almost alone in maintaining tone did not
i seem to alter this suppression. The con.
j viction that some of the most powerful
! financial interests in the country intend.;
j ed to foster easy conditions in the money,
I market and expectation of . benefits" ■of ..
next week from the payment of antici
! pa ted government interest were the linav
! effective influences in the. buoyant out
i burst which ended the day.

ing the past two days, and the range
in -prices between South St. Paul and
Chicago is now not more than 12%@15c.
Under - such conditions: shippers cannot
afford" to pass" us" up. "Receipts are run
ning heavy, but the demand is good,
and the close" of each day sees the hog
pens-completely . emptied. The bulk of
the good hogs sold. today at $4.80, with
a ; range of -$4.{»@54.85. - - The latter price
was paid for one very fancy load. Rough
packers are sorted out at $4.45@4.55. See
actual sales in market report.
SHEEP— sheep and lambs are sell
ing lo<Q2sc higher than last week, and in
good demand at the advance. Receipts
have been light, and packers have had
to buy ■ necessary supplies from feeders.
Stock and feeding sheep and lambs are
in good demand, at fully steady prices.
Common and cull stuff is very slow sale.
Very truly, ROGERS &'ROGERS. .
