nnCAfJO, Dec. 4. Grain price today
Continued on their upward course, tn bul
lliih Ohio crop report being; the chief Incen
tive to the advance. May wheat closed lo
higher. May corn wa up 4tfi74c, oata were
tip htis ana January provisions closed from
unchanged to 60 higher.
The sentiment wan again extremely bul
lish In wheat and trading was on a. liberal
scale. Fears of damage to the winter
wheat through lack of moisture were quite
general among trailers nerore the session
opened, and on Initial sales May wan un
changed to Vc higher at Wit,tii,c. There
wan a good general demand Ht the Klart,
and with only email nfTerlngs the price
quickly advanced to f2i,; then a alight re
action occurred. The decline wan one to
selling by pit traders, who had reason to
believe that the big long was disDosing of
Tart of hi holdings. Belling on the part of
rit. I xiii I a houses allied in the setback, on
(he decline, however, there waa buying by
commlswlon nouses ann snorts ana tne mar
ket again became strong. A ra tter tone In
luJa rabies and , the bullish Ohio croo re
port stimulated buying during the latter I
part of the session, and the close was
airong. rinaj ngure on May were at n."c
after the price- had touched 82c. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
4SH.800 bushels. ' Primary receipts were 1,064,
00 bushels, compared with 908,000 a year
ago. Bradatreets' reported exports of wheat
and flour for the week of 4,2O1.Oji0 bushels,
against 6,604,000 a year ago. Minneapolis,
jMjIuth and Chicago had combined receipts
of 759 cars, against 1,160 last week and 639
a year ago.
There was a further advance tn the price
of corn, due largely to sympathy with
wheat and a general spread of the bullish
sentiment. Trading waa of better character
than for some time past. Buying was
mostly by short. Small receipts, an Im
proved cash demand for new yellow corn
and higher cables helped In the advance.
After opening Vgc higher at 43tfr43,e May
oold between 43o and closing at 43Vci
.c. Local receipts were 173 cars, with 2
of contract grade.-
Oats were active and strong, Influenced
largely by the action of wheat and corn.
There was some liquidation early In the
day, but there was no evidence of any sell
ing hv thn his- holders. Hmall receipts and
a fair cash demand were bull factors. May
opened a shads to M,iv4c nigner ai J-'WW
;rr ruivMi Derween i'.kui.W'W auu ,
losing at 8641360. Local receipt were
100 cara. ,
Provision were easier early In the day,
due to liberal recelpta of hogs and lower
nriKm . mt thu vnrrls 1-nter the market
firmed up under a good demand credited to
short. The strength In grains lent some
support to hog products. Closing prices
were eteady, with January pork up 6c at
nt nfi. January lard waa unchanged at
$6.46 and ribs were 6c higher at $5.96.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4 The net change
In prices from last year shown In today's
prices give no sort of Indication of the
excitement and hurley-burley of the day's
market. The advance of the early part of
the day waa freely fed bv enormous realis
ing, which ultimately wiped out practically
all the early gain. The mere fact of the
Insignificant price changes on such a
volume of business pointa indutably of the
se ling to realize which was effected.
There was no news to account for the
movement. Yesterday's sharp upward
movement, succeeding the gradual growth
during the week of the advance nhould
bring In some light buying through the
commission houses, but buying to cover
shorts was the most Important element.
The bear fright extended Into foreign mar
kets and London's buing of United States
Steel was largely due to the largo short
Interest In that stock existing abroad. The
retreat of the bear Interest which began
yesterday became a rout today. Many of
the stocks which have already enjoyed
some measure of recovery from the depth
of the depression were notably outside of
today's movement. The western and Pacific
stocks were not conspicuous sharers In the
activity and strength and the southwestern
and southern stocks concerned in the cotton
movement showed positive depression. The
total dealings rose above 1,000,000 share
and this enormous business was largely
congested In United State Steel preferred
and Brooklyn Transit and Pennsylvania.
The shorts In United States Steel preferred
believed that the buying In that stock win
for account of managers of the recent
bond syndicate. No specltlo news developed
to account for the movement, which
reached an extreme of 3'4 points. The
stock's net gain was 2 points.
The volume of dealings in Pennsylvania
was also enormous throughout the day, but
the price movement was narrow. The ex
treme rise was and the stock closed U
higher than last night. The taking of profits
here was very obvious.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit's late upruBh of
64. points was manifestly designed to help
hold the rest of the market, but the con
tinued outpour of stocks made this un
availing. Brooklyn Transit Itself closed
with only 3 points saved of net gain. The
only explanation was the rumors of trans
fer of large blocks of slock for the purpose
of consolidation of the New York fraction
Interests.
The buying of stocks for London account
helped to weaken the exchange market and
both discount and the price of gold were
lower In London, but the money rate ran
off In this market so that no gold was
taken In London for New York. Prelimi
nary estimates Indicate that the receipts
of currency from the Interior by direct
express reached something less than $3,000,
000. As the subtreasury operations have
withdrawn from the banks something like
$3,335,000, it Is expected the cash will show
a decrease of a few hundred thousand
dollars. .
Only a few speculative bond Issues
shared In the strength and animation of
the stock movement, notably United States
Steel second 5s. Total sales of bonds, par
value, were 16,571.000. United States bonds
were unchanged on the last call.

CATTLE There wa about a normal run
of cattle here, today for a Friday and very
little, change In price waa noted. All the
early arrivals were soon disposed of, but
tne trains were ratner siow in arriving,
which delayed the close until a late hour.
The few cars of cornfed steer that were
on sale this morning changed hands at
about steady prices. The quality of most
of them wa rather Inferior, so there wa
no life to the trade. As compared with the
close of last week, the market is Just about
steady all around.
The cow market waa also generally
steady with yesterday. In some case can-
ners had to sen a little lower, as tne ma
jority of the receipt consisted of that class
of stock. Good cows, though, sold readily
at steady prices. As compared with the
close of last ween, tne Detter grades are a
little stronger, with cannon and cutter
about steady.
No change was noticeable mi morning
In the prices ruling on bulls, veal calves
and stags, and In fact the same price have
been In force all the week.
The stocker and feeder market wa not
very tictlve this morning, the some as 1
generally the case on a Friday. The trices
paid, though, were close to steady,' particu
larly If the quality was good. Common
stuff undoubtedly wa a little weaker. The
week is closing a little stronger thnn last
week, but hardly as good as the nrst of
this week. The same a ha been the case
all the full, common cattle are neglected
and hard to move, particularly toward the
closo of the week.
There were hardly enough western grass
beef steers on sale this morning to make a
market, but it wouia pe sate 10 quote
prices steady. For the week, the market
has also been about steady, the demand
nnnnrentlv being fullv eoual to the aunnlv.

HOGS There waa a fairly liberal run of
nogs in signt this morning ana in spite
of the fact that Chicago wa quoted slow
and weak to a dime lower the general
market here wa fully steady. At th
start there were a few loads that per
haDS sold a trifle easier, but It soon be
came evident that local packer had liberal
order to fill and that there were none too
many hogs to meet the requirements. After
the first round trading became very active
and In fact all th early arrivals were
soon out of flrat hands. Heavy hog sold
largely from 34. 35 to $4 40, medium weight
went from 34 40 to 34.46 and lights from
14 46 to a4.l.
The close of tl.a market was even more
active, with Tirices ranging strong to
nickel higher than the early sales. All th
nacker wanted the hogs and a a resul
It only took a few minutes for the late
arrival to change hand. Representativ.

SHEEP There was a small run of sheen
nd lamb In sight this morning, but pack
ers did not take hold with auy life and In
fact their bid were all of 104fl5o lower
than the same kinds sold for yenterday.
Chicago was quoted considerably lower, and
inai, togeiner witn tne poor quality or tne
offerings, accounts for the very bearish
tactics of local ouyer. At a late hour
there was still considerable stuff unsold, as
salesmen could not make up their minds to
take off as much a packers demand.
Feeder buyer were also scarce and a a
result trading on that class of offerings
was also slow, with prices a little lower.
For the week feeders have not shown much
change, but fat abeep and yearlings are all
of 16fa26o lower. Lambs have been scarce
and have not suffered as sharp a deollne.

crease In the world s visible supply for the
month that was unaer expectations, tn
loss being about 80.000 bags, whereas. 101.
000 had been looked for by some of th
local traders. Almost at once, however, the
market wa steadied by a renewal of buy
ing from th recognized bull Interest and
