December.
CHICAGO. Ort. 16 Much animation was
manlfe sted on the markets today on the
Board of Trade. Provision and grain both
cloned higher.
Wheat was active and strong today and
a large amount of trading both In May
nd lecember. The opening was firm on
higher cables and after a temporary de
cline, due to profit taking, but covering by
shorts and strength It. corn were bull fac
tors. Statistics were bearish, but little
attention la being paid to them, the local
entlment being bullish. December opened
a shade lower to 'u c higher at 71tc to
71lS,c. After selling down to 71H71c there
m a rally on covering by shorts, sales
being made at 72o. The close was 'tlc higher
at 71,t'fT2c. Clearances of wheat and Hour
were equal to 362.2X6 bushels: primary re
ceipts were 1.243,8(11 bushels, against 1.M69.795
bushels a year ago. Minneapolis and Du
luth reported receipts of 53 cars, which,
with local recelp's of 115 cars seven of con
tract grade made total receipts for the
three points of 968 cars, against 19 cars
last week and 744 cars a year ago.
Active demand for Iecember corn from
commission houses caused that delivery to
rule strong and a large volume of trading
wi done at the advance. Much of the buy
ing was done by the prominent local who
was largely responsible for the Hcptomber
deal and who Is now said to be long a big
line In December. The opening was strong
on higher cables and there was some sell
ing by commission houses early on the ad
Vance, but prices were well maintained and
the early sellers turned buyers, which
helped to boost the price. There was con
siderable realizing again at the advance
and a light decline followed, but near the
close there was renewed demand and final
figures were near the top. December
nened unchanged to 'kc lower at 4itc to
4!Hc. sold between 4o7c and BIMiC, closing
I'VolV higher at 614t514c. Incal receipts
Were 208 cars, with 2fi of contract grnde.
Oats were traded In fairly well and the
market was strong, largely In sympathy
with higher prices In other grnlns. Good
commission house demand, especially for
May, and covering by shorts were also bull
factors, Ught offerings helped prices. De
cember cloned He higher at 3Hc, after
ranging between 31c and 31Vall31kC. Local
receipts were 184 cars.
Continued small receipts of hogs and
strength I rv grain pits canst d an upward
tendency to provisions. Trading was ac
tive, although offerings became light late
in the day, which helped to maintain prices.
January pork closed 15c higher at 316.95,
January lard was 25c higher at 19.30 and
ribs closed THfiiOc higher at 38.424.

existed In WhII street as to the possible
hitch In the efforts to bring about a satis
lartory solution of the matter.
With the removal of this long deterrent
factor aa a market Influence, speculators
began to figure on the benettclal effects oil
general business, that would follow the re
sumption of active mining operations.
News from the antliruclte region Indicating
that the miners were In Jubilant spirits
over the prospect of speedily returning to
work was greeted with great satisfaction,
as was the statement that the mine opera
tors were mnking preparations to rexume
work on a large s-ale. Advices from tabrond
that the situation was viewed there with
great cheerfulness Intensified the optimlstlc
leeling nnd caused heavy buying of the
general market. London followed Its satls
laction over the outcome by creating a
strong and active market for American se
curities there and supplemented it with
some largo buying orders nere. Prices
opened with a rush upwurd and huge blocks
of stocks were bought at rising prices. The
opening In the coalers was large and there
were 6.O0O shares of Pennsylvania pur
chased on a fractional spread. Initial gains
were well over a point throughout the ac
tive list and after a temporary setback the
rise was renewed with vigor and advances
of 2 and even '3 points became numerous.
Tho buying movement embraced all of the
usual favorites and at times was heavily
centered In various groups, particularly in
the Pennsylvania group. The pronounced
strength of the market brought out the
usual crop of rumors regarding special
stocks, particularly Norfolk & Western,
which advanced over 6 points to 80 on re
ports of an increased dividend. Much of
the heavy buying throughout the list was
credited to a heavy operator who has re
cently returned to the street after an ab
sence abroad. After the first burst of en
thusiasm over the favorable aspect of the
coal strike situation tho street began to re
gard that Incident as a secondary tailor In
the market and commenced to discount the
expected eaalng up of the monetary situa
tion through the rumored bond purchases
by Secretary Shaw. Nothing definite re
garding this developed during the day, but
there were verv manv circumstantial ac
counts touching the transaction. It was re
ported tnat the amount Involved would be
about $15,000,000, which would be tendered
by a syndicate on satisfactory terms. Pro
fessional traders were inclined to regard
the heavy buying as foreshadowing an
early announcement of the transaction.
Room shorts showed mucn concern over
the heavy absorption of stocks and covered
pretty extensively In many of the leaders.
The market at times showed some hesita
tion while realizing was in progress, but
where this process was going on the effect
was largely counterbalRnccd by heavy buy
ing at other polnta. Monetary conditions
today were more favorable to borrowers
and there were more liberal offerings of
time money below recent rates. Prominent
features In the day's movement were the
Pacifies, Louisville & Nashville, Stigar, Illi
nois Central, the high-priced coal stocks
and St. Paul. The laucr waa marked up
above 190 on a revival of reports of closer
relations with Union Pacific, which stock
was also conspicuously strong. Sterling
exchange rates today were somewhat
teadler, owing to a rather smaller volume
of commercial bills. The statements of the
large European governmental Institutions
were scanned with Interest, in yiew or some
expectation here that there Is an early
likelihood of gold imports. The reports
from the Bank of France and the Bank of
England showed some contraction In re
sources, but the proportion of the latter's
reserve to liability rose to 45.77 per cent,
against 43.38 per cent Inf.t week. Trading
was In Immense volume In the closing rtour
and there were many blocks of 1,000 shares
and upwards taken, one block of 6,OoO
shares of Norfolk &' Western changing
handa at 80. Prices all around were quite
generally lifted to the best and the closing
was very active and strong. ,
The bond market showed pronounced
strength In sympathy with stocks. Total
sales, par value, $4,315,000. United States
new 4s. coupon, advanced 14 per cent on the
last call.

plentiful In the market today, but ther-i
waa lyes demand for It. Discounts were
easy. On the Mock exchange speculation
was dormunt. but a lalrly good tendency
prevailed. The feature of the transactions
was the strength of Americans, owing to
the apparent approach of the termination of
the miners' strike in the I'titied States,
though It was not considered likely that
they would fully recover until the mone
tary position was relieved. Americans
opened firm, then reacted, but soon recov
ered substantially, pending the opening of
the market in New York. Prices were
maintained after that and rlooed steady,
Canadians sympathising with Americans.
Consols were dull. Home rails wore held
up by substantial Increases In the traffic
returns. Braslllaua were la Ocmand. tipaa-

maintained to the close. Spanish 4s were
weak. Rentes were steauy. Argentines

CATTLE There was quite a decrease In
cattle receipts today, as compared with the
previous dava of this week. The mniiiv
of the offerings on the whole was rather
inrenor. so tnat what little good stuff did
arrive sold to fairly good advantage.
Included In the receipts were several
loads of cornfed cattle. Some of them
showed considerable qualltv. and those
kinds sold without much trouble at verv
satisfactory prices. There have been ho
good cattle here In so long that It 'Is al
most Impossible to make comparisons, but
the cattle sold at about what ft was
thought they would bring. The common
and warmed-up kinds were neglected, the
same as usual, and buyers did not seem to
care whether they got that class of cattle
or not.
The cow market was active this morning
and fully steady with yesterdav. Packers
all seemed to be quite anxious for supplies,
and as a result It waa not long before
practically everything offered was disposed
of. As compared with the close of last
week the market is a little stronger all
around.
Bulls, veal calves and stags also sold
fully steady with yeaterday.
The stocker and feeder trade did not show
any great amount of activity. There were
verv few good cattle here, and such winH.
could be quoted steady. The common kinds
were very dull, the same as usual.
There were very few western beef steers
on sale, and the most of them that did
arrive were lacking In quality. Good beef
was steady, while common kinds were
rather dull. Range cows showed consid
erable activity and the market could he
quoted fully steady. Stockers and feeders
if desirable, were steady, but others were
hard to dispose of at satisfactory prices.

and as a result prices Improved on both fat
stuff and feeders. Paekere have been so
short on mutton of late that they have had
a hard time to supply their trade, and as a
result they were anxious for both sheep
snd lambs and the market ruled active and
10 15c higher than yesterday. As compared
with the close of last week the market may
be quoted 15tff25c higher on desirable grades.
Afew cars of native sheep and lambs ar
rived and they sold at very satisfactory
prices. The cornfed lambs brought mostly
from $5.25 to $5 35, but as high aa $5.50 was
paid for a small bunch. Yearlings sold up
to $4.00 and ewea $3.60.
The demand for feeders was also active
and all desirable grades sold at stronger
rrtces. There were a good many buyers on
hand, so that anything desirable was easy
to dispose of. The common kinds, though,
were slow, the same as usual.
