Prices oa Board Trade.
CHICAOO, Dec. 6. Sensational reports
of rust dsmage In Argentina caused a 2c
advance here today In the price of May
wheat. The market closed at practically
the highest point of the day. jl'orn Is down
V. Oats are off VflVc and provlslone 2't
tjlOc.
Wheat at the openlng'manlfested a firm
tone. Aa the session advanced the Inltlul
firmness developed Into rampant bullish
ness. Rather Indefinite news from Argen
tina to the effect that harvesting Is being
delayed by wet weather waa the principal
cause of the firm opening. May was up
a shade to ViKc at ll.llfil.liV With
an active commixslon house demand prices
steadily advanced. Additional bullish en
thusiasm was croated about the middle of
the day by a report from a Chicago crop
expert who la now In Argentina. Accord
ing to this authority the wheat crop of the
South American country Is In a critical
condition, nearly one-half of the total crop
having been damaged by rust. The report
was not replete with detail, but It sug
gested that notwithstanding an increase of
nearly 2.0i0.tti In acreage the total crop
Is l.voro.ooo bushels leas than last year.
These figures were alarming to shorts and
throughout the remainder of the day there
was an urgent demand from that source.
Just prior to the close May sold at 31. UW
The market closed at I1.13S- Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 6,fi0 bush
ells. The amount on passage Increased
192,000 bushels and the viHible supply
showed a gain of 1.2ilo,000 bushels. Primary
receipts were 1.2t.l'J0 bushels, compared
with 1,410.7 bushels a year ago. Minne
apolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re
ceipts of l.iito cars against 1.144 cars last
week and l.ObC cars a year ago.
A large Increase In the movement of the
lew crop waa the dominating Influence in
the corn market. In consequence of the
liberal receipts and Improved grading con
siderable weakness developed notwithstand
ing the sharp advance In wheat. An addi
tional bear factor waa a report from Argen
tina claiming that the new crop was ex
pected to be very large. May opened Wl
tc to W5iC lower at 45Vfl 454C sold off
to 44io and closed at 447vu 4fic. Local re
ceipts were 702 cars with 7 of contract
grade.
Weakness of corn had a depressing effect
on the oata market. Lower prices at the
sample tables tended to weaken specula
tive values.. Trading was only modera'te.
May opened a shade to Vc lower at 30V:
to 30V!31c, sold down to and closed
at SoVa30,ic. Local receipts were 99 cars.
Considering the Immensity of hog re
ceipts the provision market held remark
ably steady, although prices showed a
small decline. Offerings were rather free,
but the market received fair support from
packers around Ir'lde figures. At the clos-s
May pork was off 7Vdl0c at 313.06. May
lard was down 2V,c at $7.15. Ribs were -a
fcfie lower at $H.77HSi.80.
Estimated receipts ror tomorrow: Wheat
142 cars; corn, 937 cars; oats, 152 cars; hogs.
36,000 head.

GOLD BARS ENGAGED FOR EUROPE
Annonncemenl that All the Atallahle
apply Is to Be Bent Abroad
lasses a Slump In
Valaes.
NEW YORK, Dec. 6 Dealings In etockj
expanded today and the level of prices
receded. In spite of marked gains In a num
ber of the stocks In which the trading was
heaviest. The sustaining power of these
marked advances was effective during
the early part of the day and made possible
large profit taking with small eftct on
prices. But on the unexpected snnounce
ment of the purchase of 3l.oo0.0oo in gold
bars at the assay office for export to
Europe tomorrow thg market gave way
quite generally. The effect of this news
was aggravated by the Information that
all available supplies nf gold bars had been
bespoken for contemplated further ship
ment. The agents In this transaction were
exceedingly reticent regarding It and the
mystery surrounding It gave It additional
Influence. The gold Is generally supposed
to be destined for Berlin The sharp de
cline In the price of exchange on Saturday
and again this morning under the largely
augmented supply of cotton bills caused
the definite dismissal of possible gold ex
ports from the realm of stock market fac
tors. Sentiment was sll the more affected
on that account by the news of the en
gagement. The transfer through the Treusury'depart
ment of $6n.0u0 to San Francisco and of
$.'!iio.0no to New Orleans mad the feeling
over the money outlook addltlonaly sensi
tive. The money rule Itself was barely
affected. London discounts receded this
morning and the price nf gold wns marked
down an additional fraction. The undis
turbed trsnquilllty of the money market
effected some rassnrsnce and contributed
to the later rally in stocks. The strength
of the market was general at the opening
Induced by the strong closing on Saturday,
the good bank statement and the govern
ment's estimate of a bumper cotton crop.
The cotton carriers proved rather hard to
move owing to the weight of the real
izing which was encountered. The Reading
movement then became the center of In
terest. Its rise to nenr 83 wax not ac
counted for by nny news ressrdlng the

CATTLE There was a very light run of
cattle here this morning for a Monday, and
In fact supplies were smaller thun generally
anticipated. Receipts at other points were
not excessive, but still reports troin Chi
cago showed the market tnero was steady
to 10c lower, with Kunsus City steady 10
slow. In spite of these bcnnsli reports the
demand here was suliicient to cuuse the
market to rule active, wiih prices steady to
a dime higher.
There were just a few bunches of corn
fed steers on sale this murnxig and none
of them were strictly prime. Buyers were
a little slow in taking nold of the short-ted
kinds and prices were no more tnan steady
with ttie close of last week.
Western range beet steers met with good
demand at nrm prices, and while the qual
ity was rather Interior the market was
fairly active and some of the more desir
able bunches sold s4il0c. higher. Most ev
erything was disposL-u of at an eany hour,
as there dlu not seem to be enough cattid
In sight to meet the requirements of the
trade. 1
The cow market, although a little uneven,
waa generally steady with last Friday.
Sonio sulesmen thought they got a little
stronger prices, while others complained
that iliey had a hard time to get as much
as the same kinds brought last week. As a
general thing, though, there waa not
enough chungu In ruling prices to be hardly
worth mentioning.
The prices paid for bulls, veal culves and
stags looked Just about steady.
Very few Blockers and feeders were car
ried over from lust week in the hands of
speculators and as prospects were fuver
uiiUi for a fairly good demand from the
country the market tills morning was ac
tive, with anything at ull desirable tttrong
to a dime higher. Common stuff, for widen
the demand is limited, did nut show much
of auy Improvement. Representative aules:
