STOCKS AND BONDS.
It Win 11 I'licnnmmmlly Hull Day lu the
Security Murkot.
KEW YOIIK , Bee 12. It\vas a phenomenally
dull day on the Stock exchange/ / and there
were periods ot complete stagnation during
which absolutely no business was trans
acted. The result is that the total sales
of the day do not aggregate more thau hi a
brisk market would bo made in a single
hour , yet thcro was a llrm undertone to the
dealings and the changes of the day , though
slight , are generally in the advance column.
At the opening a llrm tone prevailed and
some moderate buying orders in the arbl-
traeo specialties came in from London ,
which , together with advices of a better
London market for American securities ,
helped the slug'cish upward movement. The
rise was merely fractional , except for Lead
preferred , which was sold up 1 per cent ,
and excepting this the improvement was
quickly lost. Before 11 o'clock another
advance had been recorded , Tobacco
and Lead preferred making additional
gains of 1 per cent. General Electric and
Colorado Coal it Iron also advanced 1 per
cent ana the general list from % to ? { per
cent. Then came ono of the stagnant pe
riods during which the voice of the stock
ticker was heard at but rare inteivals , but
toward noon there was * some activity in the
selling , Lead preferred losing all the early
improvement. National l.iuseed , ou the
contrary , was strong and advanced 8)4 per
cent.
During the early part of the afternoon the
transactions aud lluctuatlons wcro unim
portant except in ono or two instances. Bo-
lore 2 o'clock a fractional reaction set In and
the speculation was heavy until the lust halt
hour , when the trading bec.uno llrmer than
at anv otner tlnio during the day , an upward
movement developing which was held to the
close , the final prices being In many cases
at the highest of the day.
The concra ! list closed at an ndy.utco of }
to Ijf per cent.
Iho Post says ; The Wall street market
reacbod'today a pitch of Inactivity Quito
without recent parallel. It was not , however -
over , weak , and yesterday's professional at
tack on prices , likejnost of such movements
since the repeal hill passed into law , lliuled
out completely ou this morning's market.
Today's firmness in prices in the face of the
pathetic support is attributable In no stiull
measure lo the growing conviction , in finan
cial circles , that the tariff bill will be passed
with very little violent opposition.

the leading stocks on thu New York ex

Cattle TradB Fairly Active on Gooil

TUE&DAV , Dec. 12.
So far this weolc , compurcd with last ,
there has been very llttlo change In cattle
receipts. Hog supplies show un Increase of
nearly 2,000 head , nnd sheep nearly a,500
hand.
The supply of cattle was fairly liberal
mid. the otTcnlngs were , as usual , made up
largely of half fat natives and odds and
ends of rangers. Dressed beef houses were
about the only buyers , but as they all
wanted good cattle the market opened out
reasonably active and very nearly steady on
thcso grades , unit fair to cholca 1,000 to
1,400-lb , bcovcs sold ut from $1.25 to f3. For
the ordinary run of half fat and short fed
stock tliu tmu'Uet was In bad slutno. Sailors
took off lOo and 15o and then had lots of
trouble to ilnd buyers. Very fair 1,200 to
liao-lb. ! steers sold at from $3.50 up to W.
and thu movement _ was decidedly sluggish
throughout. Half finished and warmed up
cattle are too plentiful to bo worth much
now , as the consumptive demand is very
low ,
Coivs and mixed stock were In liberal
suptily , making up nearly a third of thn
entire- fresh receipts , ( jood stufl sold
early at full strong prices , but the local con
tingent started In lo'uuy ' common and can-
t'ing grades dowiu 'A good speculative de
mand , howoverj lielped sustain prices
and the general mankct was not much
different from tbut of Monday.
Somofuncyhelfct'8 brought $3.no , but fj.ii.1
to W.05 bought thu built of the fair to goud
butchers'stool : , wliflo nolhlugof any conso-
fticnco went ttt under gl.iiO , Calves wcro

showed no particular uhango , poor to uhok-o
bulls , oxen ami | t taga selling readily at
from * 1.75 to sa.i.V ! ( . v
Business iu stoukur and feeders showed
no noteworthy chance. Fresh receipts were
not cx-i'cssivo amrwitn a continued active
Inquiry from the country prices were firmly
held ou all suitable.1 ' fcradus. Common and

Ilooi The run was liberal and the quality
good. A lower market iu Chicago , heavy
supplies here and no shipping or speculative
demand worth mentioning all combined to
make prices lower , and buyers started iu to
make their purchases about a ilcccl ! cheaper
than Monday. All were anxious for the
hogs a I the prices and the free buying
Blurted prices upward a trifle. For a time
thu market was fully us good as on Monday.
On thu early market fair to good hoes sold
largely at (5.05 and $5.10 , ami ou the bulge
the same grades of hogs brought $5.10 and
$5.15. The strength was of short duration ,
houovcr , ami tlio market slumped again on
hearhh advices uncii closed as weak as it
had opened. Hough packers and under
weight stuff sold as low as $ . ' , uud cholco
butchers sold ou the rise at $5.0. One-half
the offerings , however , changed hands r.t
