v CHICAGO, Dec. 2. Trading In both
grains and provisions was rather quiet on
the Board of Trade today, but a better tone
was manifested, May wheat closing c
higher, with corn up c and oats Wfle.
better. January provisions were unchanged
to a shade higher.
There was general selling early In wheat
dun to reports that the leading Ion oper
ator had disposed of his entire holding,
lister a (rood demand sprung up on Itrad
strect's report showing an Increase of only
1,130,000 buheJ In the world a stocks for
the week, compared with an Increase the
corresponding; week of last year of 6,220,000
bushel. 8eaboard clearances of about
1 6O,000 bushel of wheat and flojr were also
bull factors. There waa some liquidation
on the advance, but the close was strong
and near the top figure of the day. May
opened a shade to c lower at 747fr7nc,
sold off to 764c and then advanced grad
ually to 7o, closing c. higher at 75Tw7Bc.
I'rlmary receipts were 1.32X.oiiO bushels, com
pared with 1.490,ffliO bushels a year ago.

86 cars only 2 of contract grade made total
receipts for the three points of 1.103 cars,
against 1,418 cars last week and 1,129 a year
B0.
Corn was strong throughout the entire
session, higher cable, unfavorable weather
present and prospective, and a good cash
as well an export demand combining to
create a bullish tendency. Shorts were the
best buvera and covered freely. The close
was strong, with May up c at 43Sl8Hc,
after selling between 42c and 43Hc Local
receipts were 302 cars, with but 3 of con
tract trade.
Oats were fairly active and firm, with a
good demand for May. There was consid
erable changing from December to May.
Unfavorable weather, light receipts and the
strength In wheat were the chief bull In
fluence. May closed 'cd'tc higher at 32He,
lifter ranging between 3iVc and 32c. Local
receipts were 181 cars.
Provision) riled weak, notwithstanding
the small stock of contract product, which
were as light a had been anticipated. The
liberal receipts of hogs with lower prices
st the yards and prospects of a still further
Increase In the receipts on account of the
exposition, were the weakening factors.
The close waa steady, January pork being
unchanged at 115.82V,, while lard and ribB
were each a shade higher at $9.47tt and $8.16
respectively.

EW YORK STOCKS AAD BO MIS.
arty Strength Gives Way to Doll and
Heavy Whea Message Is Published.
NEW YORK. Dec. 2 -The notable early
trength In today's stock market was ap
parently due to a resumption of activity on
ne part ot some ot tne reauy passive appe
llative pools. The socalled western con
Ingent was credited with large trann.ic
lons. The operators on the bull side pro
fessed to have advance information of the
resident's message. Either their informa-
on or their Judgment of Its effect wan at
fault according to the effect of the market
rter the publication of the message, the
market lacked all power of resistance to
selling movement from that time forward
and the selling pressure gained in torce
ntll near the close, which was auu and
h avy.
The check to the recent upward course
of the speculation on the local traction
ad a depressing effect on the general mar
ket. The decline In tractions was due to a
aturai desire to take profit, bjt also In
part to the announcement that a Judicial
decision on the special franchise tax was
mpending. Another cnunng innuence was
he indication of renewed trouble in tne
money market, contained in another flurry
In the call loan rate to 7 per cent. This
was attributed In part to the requirements
t paying ia,ow,i subscriptions to new
lllnois Central stock, but the engagement
of $500,000 in gold for shipment to South
America was of even greater, sentimental
effect. This gold goes to pay for wheat
bought for account of England, and there
fore resembles to same extent the triangu
lar operation by which gold has, gone to
Paris to pay London's debt. The deposit of
$.'jo,ou0 at the subtreasury for transfer to
San Francisco marked the continuance of
nterlor needs for money. Collection of
customs continue to make heavy Inroads
upon the New York money market. 1 he
published report that some of the leading
truKt companies are offering special Induce
ments was disquieting. The effect of these
efforts cost the market all of Its early ad
vances and carried tne level lor many
rominent stocks from 1 to t points below
ant night.
The bond market became easier in sym
pathy with the late transactions in stock.
Total sales, par value, $2,170,000. United
States 3s, coupon, declined per cent on
the last call.

LONDON, Dec. 2 With the consol set

tended to eaalrr rates. Discounts were
fairly steady. Operators on the Stock ex
change were almost idle. Consols improved.
Americans opened quiet and mostly a frac
tion below parity. They subnetjjently hard
ened and closed strong, following New
York's lend. Most of the Parisian favor
ites were dull, owing to the unsatisfactory
condition of the Paris market. Rio tintos
were In better demand, copper being firm
at 50 11-18 on general buying orders, espe
cially for American account. The decline
In the price of gold within the last few days
has been viewed with considerable satis
faction In financial circles, as It indicates a
slackening in the demand from the various
quartern of the world, militating against
the likelihood of irold exuorts or a ripe in
the hank rate. The demand for gold for J
win continent to take advantage or the
situation to strengthen the gold reserves in
preparation ror the Increased demand for
money generally expected at the vear end.
Cheaper gold here Is also said to lessen the
prospect or gold being drawn to London

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-COTTON-Market
opened steady at an advance of 2 points
and further advanced mil 10 points on more
active positions, with the improvement gen
erally due to bad weather news from the
cotton belt, rne market was further as
sisted by the message of the president.
Buying was still further stimulated bv the
assumption that the bureau report and crop
eniiniitie migni ian as sow ss ,:j,U"U oaies,
although from this figure local expectation
rai as high as lO.OOO.tajO bales, with perhaps
10,200,000 hales, the more popular figure
iooK.cn ror. ine latter, suojeci to usual
percentages of under-estimating by the
government, might be construed as being in
line with the crop estimates recently pro
mulgated by the members of the New York
Cotton exchange and the Savannah Cotton
exchange, the one being 11,077.000 balea, the
other 11,190,000 bales. The entire "bureau"
subject, however, left the cotton trade In a
nervous frame of mind, and the forthcom
ing statement from Washington Is looked
to wltn mticn anxiety by all classes of
operators. The local market for spot cot
ton advanced o points. Tne nearer posi
tions on the future list continued to at-
Iruct the Attention of snot bnveira with
some evidence of a large remaining special
Interest in January, which renewed careful
attention to that particular position. The
market was finally steady at an advance of

CATTLE A steady downpour of rain this
morning made the cattle In the yards ap
pear in about as bad form as they possibly
could, but atill packers took hold in fairly
good shape, and the more desirable grades
changed hands at what looked to he about
steady prices.
There were right close to 26 cars of corn
fed steers on sale and some of them showed
considerable quality, but still none of them
were what vculd be called finished. Tne
market held jvst about steady on the kinds
that tell iroin $4.90 up, but the warmed-up
kinds were slow sale and a little lower
than yesterday.
The cow market held Just about steady.
There was, perhaps, a little unevenness,
but as a general thing all kinds sold In
Ji.st about the same notches they did yes
terday. A liberal proportion of the re
ceipts consisted of cows, but packers
seemed to want all there were In sight, and
the market as a whole was In very satis
factory condition.
There was no quotable change in the
prices paid for bulls, veal calves and stags.
There were comparatively few Blockers
and feeders on sale this morning, so that
the better grades sold at Just about steady
prices. There was very little demand from
the country yesterday, and the bud weather
today also tended to keep buyers at home,
so that speculators were very slow about
buying the commoner grades. That class of
cattle were probably a little lower.
The few cars of western beef steers that
arrived sold without much trouble at about
steady prices, where the quality was good.
Inferior grades, tnougn, were mow ana a
little lower. Range cows held just about
steady, and
so also aid nesiraoie graaes
and feeders. Representative
of 3tockers

H0G8 There was the heaviest run of
bogs here today that has arrived in some
little time, but In spite of the fact that
other markets were quoted considerably
lower, prices here held very nearly steady
It was rather an uneven market, though,
so that while some sales were steady others
were fully 24c lower. The general market
could best be described by calling it a shade
lower. The bulk of the hogs sold at $6.07H
and $6.10 and a few choice loads sold at
$6.12'4. The heavy packing grades sold from
$6 07 down. Trading was quite active, so
that the bulk of the early arrivals was die
posed of in good season. As usual, though,
many trains were late in arriving, so that
the market did not come to a close until a
late hour. The later sales were as a rule
not as good as those made earlier In the
day, as packers wanted to buy the last
hogs around $6.07V. Representative sales:

SHEEP There was a small sunulv of
sheep here today and as packers all had
to have a few the market ruled active and
fully steady. Some fed western ewes sold
lis high as $3.45, native fed ewes brought
$3.65 and a bunch nf fed western yearling
wethers brought $3.95 and $4.00. As supplies
were limited practically everything of
fered changed hands In good season. There
were no choice lambs with which to make
test of the market, but still the general
Impression was that anything desirable
wo j Id have brought steady prices.
The feeder trade was rather slow this
morning, as very few buyers were on hand,
but the better grades held steady.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2. COFFEE Spot
Rio, steady; No. 7, Invoice, 5Vac; mild, quiet;
Cordova, 7Wnl2c. Futures opened steady,
with prices unchanged to 5 points lower,
this being only a partial response to weak
European cables, Havre having sent a de
cline of tyflif and Hamburg of 41rpfg.
Neither did the heavier receipts than ex
pected have the usual bearish effect, both
these Influences being counteracted by cov
erelgn demand, Huht Investment buying
and scarcity of offerings. Prices slowly
worked upward In the afternoon session,
with the close indicating a steady under
tone at unchanged prices to 6 points ad
vance, with the exception of July, which
declined 6 points. The regular selling In
terests were not aggressive operators to
day. Total sales amounted to 37,iO bags,
including December at 4.4ig-l.50c; January,
