CHICAGO. Dec. R Inactivity reigned su
preme on the Hoard of Trade today and
after a ateady opening In wheat a weaker
tone w manifested and May cloned Wil
hc lower. May corn wan unchanged, g
also waa oats. January provisions closed
unchanged to 10c higher.
The wheat market was extremely dull
and price had a downward tendency. There
waa no disposition to trade. Outside of Ar
gentine advices, which were construed as
somewhat bearish, there was nothing In
the way of news to Influence values. What
little trading there was came from locals,
the poor coudlilon of the telegraph wires
keeping back many orders from outsiders.
id ay opened a shaue lower to ',Wc higher
at 75Vj.76c, and alter celling olf to lac
there waa a rally to TVg i'6'ic, but another
decline followed, the price touching 'io',c.
Tha close was lower at iirt,c. Clear
ances ot wheal and flour were equal to
lil.uuo bushels. FrtTiary receipts were 9UK,
if bushels, against l.ltu.Ow bushels a vear
ago.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts
of 6s 1 cars, which with the local receipt of
62 cars, none of contract grade, made total
receipts for tha three points of M.l cars,
against 2,1 ,6 cars (two days) last week and
3uu cars a year ago.
Corn waa dull and easier, the clear, cold
Wtaiher being more favorable for the move,
ment and grading and thla feature, which
caused scattered selling by pit tradera, was
the main factor In creating a bearlah tone
to thu situation. ' Tha opening was lirm on
, .. . . 1. 1 K m maWjkfl. f i n m innn
developed and continued throrghout the
day, there being no support from the In-1
fluenceg. The close was about steady, with ,
Mav unchanged at 4JVu43Hc. atter selling I
between So and 43e. Local receipt were
li cars, with 6 of contract grade.
A fair cah demand continued the domi
nating Influence In oats and the undertone
waa llrm, but trading waa light. There
waa some selling of May on the part ot
commlnlon houaes, but the offerings were
well taken and the market held steady.
May closed unchanged at 32Hc, arter rang
ing between 32o and 32V4c Local receipts
were 184 cara.
Provisions were active and there waa a
trong tone to the market, commission
houses being good buyers, ooth In the way
of short covering and also for the account
of longs. Packers were also moderate buy
ers, but profit-taking tended to check the
advance. The close was strong, January
pork being up 10c at 116.45, while lard waa
also 10c higher at 19.10. January ribe were
unchanged at $8.37V4.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: wheat,

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
City la Isolated by Broken Wires and
Baslaess Coasrqaeatly gaffers.
NEW YORK. Dec. 5. The various re
strictive Influences which have brought
down the volume of activity In the stock
market had an addition today In the stormy
weather. The attendance of the brokers
at the board was meager and the small
number of room traders had the market
much to themselves, as they were almost
isolated by the cutting off of wire com
munication with the outside world. As a
consequence the net result of the dity's
trading was extremely small. The selling
by room traders during the early part ot
the day made some considerable Inroads
upon prices, but In the absence of outside
response and not desiring to remain un
covered over night, they rebought the
stocks sold early, cauxlng a general re
covery. So far as the action of the market
was manifest, the excitement over the
condition of money was still evident.
The forecast of the weekly bank state
ment fully justified this feeling. The banks
have lost apparently $7,000,000 from their
cash reserves during the week. It will be
remembered that last week's losa was un
derstated In the bank statement by nearly
$2,000,000 by reason of the working of the
average system of computation. The move
ment of currency has been In favor of the
Interior again to the extent of nearly
$900,000, Including the deposits at the sub
treasury for telegraphic transfer to the
Interior. The balance of the loss Is made
up of customs and International revenue
payments and the $l,oo0,ouo exported to
South America. There Is the usual obscur
ity regarding the changes In the loan Item
of the banks. There has been nothing in
the stock market to Indicate extensive
liquidation of loans. The change in that
Item Is likely to depend on syndicate oper
ations and on movements In the foreign ex
change market. Tension In the money
market haa apparently grown during the
week, but during the week call loan rates
showed a tendency to relax during the day.
This was partly due to the lightness of
the demand. The week's exports of grain
show a rising tendency, promising some re
lief from that aource for the foreign ex
change situation.
The bond market was dull and Irregular.
Total sales, par value. $l,715,Ouo.
United States bonds were all unchanged
on the last call.

rumored to be operating for European In
terests were free sellers of July and Sep
tember, but good buying developed from
scattered sou rem, chiefly covering of shorts.
Prices mulntalned the gain until mid-day,
when an Increase In the Interior movement
checked the demand and caused a partlul
decline of i points. Following upturn In

CATTLE There was a heavy run of cat
tle here this morning for a Friday, but
prlcea held up In good shape and trading
waa quite active on most klnda.
A good, liberal proportion of the receipts
consisted of cornfed steers, as there were
right around 40 cars on sale. Packers,
though, took hold In good Fhape and the
market could be quoted stronger. The more
quality the cattle snowed tne easier tney
were to dispose of. and In a good many
cases the better grades sold a little higher.
The common stuff did not show much Im
provement.
The cow market waa a little slow this
morning and no moie than steady. In some
canes oalesmen thought they had to take
off a little. The weakness waa not confined
to the common kinds, but, on the contrary,
the market seemed to be a little uneven, so
that the better grades aa' well aa the com
moner stuff occasionally had to sell a shade
lower. The market could probably best be
described by calling It slow and barely
steady.
Bulls held about steady If of good quality,
but otherwise they were weak. Veal calves
did not show much change.
There were comparatively few atockers
and feeders on sale this morning, so that
the market ruled fairly active and steady
to strong. The better grades showed tho
strength and the common stuff waa slow
and asteady.
There were not enough western beef
steers In sight this morning to make a
market. The few cars that did arrive were
of Inferior quality and they sold in about
yesterday's notches. Range cows were slow,
but right close to steady, "and desirable
grades of stockers and feeders were active
and strong. Representative sales;

SHEEP There was only a fair run of
sheep here this morning and the ruarket
ruled active and stronger on all desirable
grades of killers. As high as $4 10 was
paid for fed western yearlings, which is
the highest price in some little time. The
same stuff sold last Monday for $3.7o.
Kwes and wethers also sold at good, strong
prices and some sales looked quite a little
higher than yesterday. Good fat lambs
were again scarce, and, as packers had to
have a few, they took the kind that were
offered at strong prlcea.
The feeder market was slow, owing to a
scarcity of buyers, and the sales that were
made looked lower. Commleaion men nave
been sending word to their customers that
feeders can oe bought now at bottom notch

steady at 1 point advance to 1 point decline,
ruled generally quiet, orders from the coun
try at large being more or leas restricted
by weather Interruptions to the telegrsph!c
service. Trading was almost entirely of a
local character throughout the session. In
the absence of public support the more pro
fessional element depressed the market, hut
waa cautious. In view of the disappointing
movement and the possibility of some dam
age to late cotton, the continued unfavor
able weatner prevailing over much of the
cotton belt, with some leportltig ruination
to any further chance of lop development,
while the rains and flood following frosts
have done much toward degrading the
quality of ;ate cotton. The demand came
principally from partlea who had sold pre
viously, although there was some buying
for Wall street accounts early In the ses.
slon. It was a local market most of the
time, with 'ong Intervals between transac
tlons toward the close of business. Tho
toiul sales did not amount to more thnn 2j,-
Ooo bales, representing the smallest business
done since tne season commenced. 1 ne
market was finally quiet at a net loss of !
2 polntfl, the entire variations following the
