CHICAGO , Dec. 6. Wheat Jim shown
more nctlvlly today nnil decidedly more
etrctiRth , nnd before noon the price had nil-
vnnccil nbotit % c from the rloso last night.
There were a peed many thins * which con
tributed to the betterment of price ? . The
KnKllsh cnblesvcro BtronRcr , nnd there was
n , feeling that the eastern question wns rnp-
Idly nppronchltiR n crlsK nnd Hint war
might soon follow. The receipt" , too , wore
Romcwhnt smaller than expected , nnd the
cnsh demand for wheat , which linn been
so much of n fenture during the pnit few
O.iya , thews no sign of nbatcmcnt. Call-
foinln aJvices reported more cngngeincnts
nt San Trnnclsco for wheat to KO to
Auitrnlln. The purchases for the last few
< lnj-H hnil npKrcgatcd fully 500,009 Im.
Australia has umi.illy been nn exporter of
wheat , p.tid the fnct that she was n buyer
hclpjd to fttrsngthon the market. New
York was u gooil buyer nil day nnd reported
liberal clenriircep , and some of the most
prominent local operators were on the buy
ing side , while there wan u little Kcnprnl
Kefllng. The activity reported In the Hour
business \va-J also rcpnnleil as n stiong
factor ; It win paid that the Minneapolis
wiles for the past two days have exec tied
the whole week's production by 10,000 bbls.
Under these conditions the short Inter
ests becnmo rnthcr nervous , and there was
iood buying on that account , and nlso n
fair Investment demand. May sold early
lit from fiOc to fiOVJc , spilt , nnd up grnd-
uully to from tx > % c lo Glc. split , casing off
In' noon lo OOTic. December sold nt from
r.tXc . to DfiVic , with K c Fellers nt noon.
The market continued to gain strength dur
ing the closing hour , nnd .May sold up to
GH'c , hut cutcd oft u fraction. December
sold to G7c.
Corn was stronger , mainly In sympathy
with the strength In wheat , Imt the Interior
deliveries nre hardly coming up to expecta
tions. There was not much selling pres
ume , nnd some covering by shorts. May
! -oId nt from 2Se to 2X&c , spilt , nnd nt
noon was ISTdc. December has hold nt from
2.7\c. ; to Mlftc. The market got much
stranger during the Inst hour , Inlluenced
largely by the bulge In wheat. May sold
up to 23'fc , nnd December to 2Gc.
Oats were utilet but linn , In sympathy
with wheat nnd corn. JInv sold nt from

stock markers vvere Idle today , but with n fairly
steady tone except for Americans , which closed
nt the worst. I'Vnrs nre felt here of n premium
on gold In America ere long , and a protective
tariff Is also dreaded ns tending to cripple the
revival In trade already commenced. Consols
kept steady , the glut of money counteracting the
Inlluence of politics. The coin and bullion In the
llank of England Increased this week 17,330.000
IT the highest llgurts ever recorded. The gold
Imported for the week amounted f > 1,908,000 , but
the coin has gone Into home circulation ns usual
nt the end of the month. Other deposits nre up
S91Oi , and the money mniknt Is now very easy

Amsterdam , 160,000 exported to Aigeiittnn. 50,000

CATTLE The offerings of cattle were
light today. Everything received yestor-
dny wns sold before the close of the mnrket
nnd there wsro only the dny's arrival" ,
which numbered seventy-five lends , on sale
today.
Eastern markets were reported slow nnd
no more than steady , nnd while under ordi
nary conditions that would icsult In n slow
and wenk markit here the offerings of ent
ile were so light that It did not have much
effect. The buyers were out In good spa-
son , nnd while the tratlo could not be cnllcd
very nctlve the piim worn iirotty well
clrnred by mlddav , .There "were no very
good fnt steers on sale , but such IIH there
wore sold nt prices that were nbout steady
with yesterday's decline.
Butchers' slock , such ns cows and heifers ,
was In peed demand , but the supply was
light , The result was that the feeling on
the maikct was bitter , nntl deslrnble stuff
rold nt prices that ' \vere n little stronger
than yesterday. Bulls , sings , etc. , sold
fairly well nt about steady prices. Veal
calves were In good demand at steady
prices.
Stockcrs nnd feeders wuro also In light
supply , nnd good entile were In fair re
quest. The market was , If anything , a
little better than the low point yesterday.
Some fancy whlto faces sold nt $3 75 , the
best prices paid for feeders In a longtime. .
