Cables are lower , the general tone nbro.id discouraging : our own winter wheat crop represented as muoh Improved since the government reports were made all tends to depress the market. With the holiday season near at hand wo cannot look for much change In the values. Exports from the seaboard keep up but It Is on old con tracts , and thcro Is no now business coming , 1'or the present the market Is narrow and good enough for small profits on oitlior side.

MoWhortor : The Increase In shipments from all quarters of the globe for the week of l.ouo.OOO bushels ever the previous week anil the decrease on ocean passage of 800.005 bushels shows that thu foreign imirKots must have rci-clvcd nuout 2,500,000 bushels moro last week than for the week previous. This explains why those markets have shown unusual weakness. This surplus was already largo and they could not easily absorb the largely Increased receipts on a falling mar kut. Clearances have been considerably above the average and some traders assume that If thov should continue at anything Hko this rate they will further depress 'foreign ' markels. Cables wore hu ivy loilny , and what added lo the weakness was the dtsuatch from tbo Liverpool Corn Trade News saying that Russia bud Issued un ollletal report saying that the crops of that country , Including potatoes , wcro 23.00n.ooo bushels In excess of Hnsslun requirements. This Is Im portant If true and will have itseirooton prices. The prospect of u cold wave stimu lated short covering and the market closed at a recovery of fie. Kocolptx of corn were largely over the estimate nml thcro was an easy market In consequence , but prlcon were sustained bettor thiin seemed probable , as the majority of traders are bullish and ulTorlngs limited. As stated before , Mny corn looks like n sale on all hard spots. If It follows the record of other yours when conditions were about the same us now , It will sell much lower bcloro tbo expiration of the option. Current rocolptn contain but llttlo contract corn and U would not bo surprising If the manipulation of December - comber and January should continue with disastrous rcsiiUs to shorts. The oats market U very dull and without any special feature. In provisions the bears nuulo an early effort at raiding and stampeding holders , but the of ferings were iccoplud to a considerable ox. tent by a prominent local trader who has made a good deal of money on the short nldo and his now changed his position to tbo long side. The battle Is botwuun professionals and outsiders uccni lo lake llttlo Interest. STOCKS AXn JiO.V/J.S. NEW YOIIK , Dee , 15.
