    Market in Wheat
Much Stabilized
i by Foreign News
Prices Move Up Briskly to
New"' Tops and Bulk of
Gain Is Maintained at
Close; Corn Up.
By CHARLES J. LEYDEN,
Universal Service Staff Correspondent.
Chicago. Dec. 8.—Foreign news exerted
a very stabilizing influence in the wheat
pit today, causing heavy ahort covering
and speculative buying. Prices moved up
briskly to new tops for the season in all
rleftveries and finished with the bulk of
the gain maintained. Strength at Liver
pool and Indications that distressed grain
abroad was cleaned up were the influences
back of the rise.
Wheat closed- l%e to l?4e higher, corn
v ns 2Uc to 2%e higher, oats were l%c
to iftc advanced and rye ruled 7/4c to
ltjc up.
Had it not been for the liberal profit
taking in wheat on every hard spot the
market undoubtedly would have reached
higher levels. But it continued to move
in healthy fashion and at the close tech
nical conditions were satisfactory from a
bull standpoint. An advance of 6Hd in
Liverpool corn futures reflecting -bad
crop conditions in tho Argentine, proved
the factor in the local pit.
The seaboard confirmed export sales of
750.000 bushels of wheat, with Germany.
Italy and Greece the best buyers. Liver
pool closed 2d to 2 %d higher.
A* in wheat, all deliveries of corn hit
new highs for the year. Private advices
from the Argentine state that frost and
drouth have worked serious damage to
i he growing corn crop, and the advance
ih Liverpool today indicated as much.
Primary receipts of corn today were
l,45ff.UOO bushels, compared with 1,953,000
bushels last year.
Oats encountered excellent support and
reac hed the highest levels in weeks. Re
ports from Iowa had it that oats were
being shipped into sections where the
grain raised had already been ted.
Rye met good buying and worked
Ihighee. Leading commission houses sup
ported the market at times. Lest levels
wero not held, due to profit-taking sales.
Provisions finished higher, but consid
erably lower than the daj s high point.
Lard was 10c to 20c higher and ribs were
10c higher.
Pit Notes
The United States visible supply for the
week decreased 902.000 bushels. The
first report of 100.000 bushels increase
was erroneous. Just what the visible
would do had the trade guessing most
of the day. As a consequence there was
heavy realizing attracted from some who
did not rare to take a chance on the
possibility nfc a further Increase in the
supply. It is not unlikely but that the
peak pf the visible supply Increase ha*
been reached.
Almost every report from Europe re
garding the cash demand for wheat was
practically reverse of what was received
last week. London cables said that all
nearby grain was cleaned up. The news
from Germany was more encouraging.
Supplies of wheat and flour on ocean pas
sage have been decreasing steadily for
three weeks. The decrease has been
larger than the falling off in world ship
ments.
Consumptive demand in Europe appar
ently 1s keeping up at a rapid rate, and
with the gral.ii that was pressing on for
eign shores last week absorbed fresh
export demand for supplies from North
America is to bo expected. Three con
tinental countries bought cash grain to
day that had been In tho market for
semo time.
December wheat again displayed rela
tive strength compared with tho deferred
months and closed at a discount of 5tic
compared with 5>4c Saturday, and 8 He
early last week. The deliveries on con
tract since the first day of tho current
month have been small. Holders of the
each article have shifted their hedges
from December to the May and have
thus let very little of the actual grain
get away from them Millars, exporter*
and speculators snapped up what* w^s
delivered in active fashion, and have been
in a- position to further accept all the
grain put out.

Cattle—Receipts. 11.000 head. With
fairly liberal receipts of cattle, made up
very largely of short feds and warmed-up
stock, the market presented no new fea
tures and prices were just shout steady
will, th» close of last week. All classes
of buvers showed the usual preference for
the light and handyweight steers and it
was a slow and uncertain deal on warmen
up cattle. The same held trus as to
cows and heifers. Offerings of stock cat
tle and feeding steers were llmtted and
prices as strong as at any time last week.

Stock Market Is
Slowing Up and
Interest Wanes
Rails Show Weakness Under
Test and Some Industrials
Give Way Easily, but
Break Still Pends.
j _________
By KICHARD 8PILLANE.
I nlvernal Service Financial Editor.
New York, Dec. S.—With decided re
duction in the volume of orders received
over Sunday the stock market began
operations today under a seeming handi
cap. Interest in the ralli apparently had
waned, and United 8tates Steel acted as
if it had been overstrained. Special ties
became prominent suddenly, American
Express. Adama * Express and American
Telephone and Telegraph showing un
usual animation and making large gains
in short order on moderate turnover of
shares. The term "express’ is a mis
nomer, the American and the Adams be
ing money transfer, foreign banking and
travelers’ letters of credit concerns.
From banking and the foreign tour busi
ness they apparently have prospered more
than they did in the express business.
Professional*, seeing the rails unre
sponsive and the market apparently soft,
tested it out thoroughly to detormina if
it was ready for the expected break. The
rails showed weakness and some of the
Industrials gave way easily, but little
stock came oat as a result of efforts to
depress key securities of the leading
groups.
There was some calling of loan* but
not enough to disturb anyone.
A dull market Is generally considered
a poor one to sell short. Compared with
the highly active markets since election
that of today was dull. '1 here was a Tatr
flow of business throughout the day. but
not until the last hour did the market
aasume a definite character. Then there
was a fair amount of good buying on
which prices strengthened decidedly.
Throughout the session it was a spe
cialty affair. If there was any leadership
it may be credited to the motors. The
Maxwell Issues were strong on prospects
of Maxwell A going on a dividend oasis
early in the year. The Pierce Arrows
had a big advance and Nash, as is not
unusual, had a big rise on a small turn
over of shares
Rails ns a rule registered declines.
Seemingly the market has become two
sided and. temporarily at least, it Is not
wholly bullish. It shows a tendency to
go dull when tested fpr weakness, but
thus far it gives little comfort or nour
ishment to the hears.
Foreign exchange steady and little
chs nged.
Money ratta unchanged.

Interest in investment circles turned
from trading to report* of new financing
Bankers admitted that consideration was
being given to two Belgian loans, one
about $25,000,000 for construction of
Congo railroads and another of about
000,000 for consolidation of the Belgian
floating debt. Proceeds from the sale
of the recent $100,000,000 loan to France
will l»e placed at the disposal ot the
French government tomorrow.
