CHICAGO, Nov. Extreme dullness
Was man I tested In the wheat pit today ami
M largely responsible for the easier tone
In prices. Wheat declined 3,c, December
corn off t, while January provisions
closed from 12'v.' ti i-'Ho lower.
Trading In wheat as exceedingly tame
nd the business waa conilned mainly to
loesl jiiofisslonals. Iargr world's ship
ments than had been epeoted, lower cables
and continued favorable wcither cm lined
a alunip In prices at the mart. December
selling oft In T9io after opening Ho lower
to Ho higher at '.9ViNiir. The situation In
the nnrtn went waa mill a potent factor
and with light receipt there the early
Joaa aa quickly regained. The market re
celved aonie support from a prominent lo
cal operator who bought freely of the
December and M-ty deliveries, but toward
the end of the session trailing became, de
cidedly dull und May ranged between 78
fcTHc to 774,o and dosed V?i"ic lower at
7xVu78V4c (iearunccs of wheat and nur
were eipial to 286, 400 hu. Primary receipts
were I,ti03,8u0 hu. against l.twt.ioo bu. a
year ago. The amount of passage de
creaaed 2.ilo.ono bu., while the visible tup
J.ly increased l.RJi.iiOO bu. Minneapolis, Du
luth and Chicago reported receipt of
1.142 cara against 2.777 cars laat week and
824 cars a year ago.
The sentiment In the corn pit waa bearish
and there waa aome soiling early In the
day on the largo world's shipments and
the unsatisfactory condition of the cush
and export bualness, although traders In
general were not Inclined to sell much,
owing to tha small receipts and the report
of small country offerings. Estimates of
larger receplts for tomorrow caused In
creased selling lale In the day and prices
weakened, December closing N,o lower at
4-'v.e. after selling hetwi-en 42 and 43c.
May ranged between 4p and 42'H.c. and
closed H'y-Ho lower at 41T.it, 41 Tsc Local re
ceipts were 204 cars with 3 of contract
grade.
The feature In trading in oats was the
selling of May by commission houses, which
canned a weak market. Shorts were the
best buyers and th demand from this
source prevented a serious break. There
was little trading In the December delivery,
but the weakness in May had a depressing
Influence. After selling between 84Hc and
ffic, December closed SU.C lower at Mr.
May ranged between Xiii?Sc and 36V(?
8.4o, closing So hiwer at Xftac Local re
ceipts wero i29 cars.
I'mvlatnns were weak on extremelv lama
receipts of hogs, with a decline of l(c to
15c In prices at the varils. Keillor wu
chiefly by packers, but the demund was
lacking. January pork closed 22'c lower
at 811.22V44tll.26. January lard was off 17c
at tr..4i and ribs were down 12H4tl6c at
85 92iytj6.)6. i
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
145 cars; corn, 4.16 cars; oats, 200 cars; hogs,
23,000 head.

CLOSE FIRM AND ACTIVE AT TOP PRICES
Inlted glatea Steel Preferred Ad
yanced After Iterllne on Rnmor
That Dividends Would Sot
Be Reduced.
NEW YORK. Nox-. 23 TndaVs stock
market stood up well In the face of a
number of untoward circumstances and
closed quite firm st the -top level of the
oay and cn the most active market of the
day. Southern Pacific assumed the leader
ship of an early advance which was rather
dtildenly checked by an outpouring of
I tilled Mates steel preferred which carried
thiit stock down to 6014 and awakened re
newed apprehension ot Its further demor
alising effect on the whole stock market.
The 1 cnlstence with which assertions have
reappened that the dividend on the com
mon stock is to be suspended and the pre
ferred stuck to be reduced has made its
impression on speculative sentiment since
the authorities in the corporation, who
have been appealed to for Information, go
no further than to say that the question Is
one remaining for the future to decide. The
auggesiion which lound its way to the
public today, with the appearance of being
Inspired, that a reduction of the dividend
on the preferred would comport poorlv
with the corporation's privilege to issue
$50.(00,(00 of 2 per cent bonds to retire pre
terred stock seemed to have a more reas
suring efTei"-, and helped Steel preferred.
The stock closed with a net gain of a
point.
The stiffness of the call money market
was another deterrent fnetor toward the
rise. Call loans touched 7U1 per cent while
the demand for money which caused this
rise was unmistakable, it seemed to be
viewed with equanlmlt;-. The premium
established for New York exchange nt
Chicago, seems to point to an early re
turn to this center, whlrh the call money
rate would help to reduce. It Is felt
that any real need of money would draw
further gold from London. Saturday's ar
rivals of e-old amounted to 13,891 ,'., which
will therefore figure for the full week's
average In next Saturday's bank state
ment. .The demand for money Is regarded
as normal to the last week of the month.
For these reasons the current firmness of
the call money market does not seem to
disturb sentiment.
Another factor of possible disturbance
was the collapse In Republic Steel pre
ferred, which lost seven points on the
day. There was no sympathetic response;
to this outside a few of the other Iron and
steel stocks. Circumstantial reports were
In circulation of the necessity of the com-
fiany for additional capital, which It al
eged would be met by an alleged bond
Issue.
A considerable sustaining Influence in the
market was the strong tone of the local
tractions stocks led bv metropolitan se
curities with an extreme rise of 44j points.
The privilege extended to Brooklvn transit
to extend Its lines over the new Eist river
bridge and through a New York street, on
which Mctropo'itan railway tracks already
He was accepted by speculators as con
firmatory of rumors much prevalent lately
of n general merger of New York traction
companies. A more cheerful tone on the
London market was a help to the local
market.
The bond market was more active. Total
sales par value, $2,629,010. United States
bonds were unchanged on the last call.

CATTLE There was a muoh Vinn-uiar
of cattle here this morning than was gen
erally anticipated, and as other points also
.inu noeiai receipts, ine tendency or prices
was downward. Trading wua rather alow
at the decline, and aa a result the day was
well advanced before the bulk of the ar
rivals was disposed of.
There were only a few cars of corn fed
steers on sale and they were short feds
and many of them very common. There
was in ruci scarcely enough to make a test
of the market, but It Is safe to suv that
Jrioes would have been no higher and,
udglng from the conditions existing at
other points, the market would have Deen
lower. One bunch of cattle sold this
morning 36c lower than some of the same
cattle brought on November 6, which
shows the downward tendency of prices
for the last two or three weeks.
The cow market was rather uneven this
morning, galea going all the way from
steady to a dime lower. Buyers seemed
to want the cows, but they also wanted to
get them for less money. As a general
thing the better grades did not show much
decline, while the others were In most
cases a little lower.
Bulls, veul calves and stags did not
show much change, though they wore cer
tainly no higher.
The demand for stockers and feeders
was very limited this morning, and aa a
result prices suffered a decline of fully a
dime, und In some cases as much aa 16c.
The fact that this Is Thanksgiving week, It
is tnougnt, win keep many nuyers at
home, und consequently speculators are
very cautious about getting many cattle on
hand. Trading waa very slow from start
to finish and common stuff was almost Im
possible to sell at any price.
Puckers were also bearish on the west
ern grass beef steers. There was some
unevenneas to the trade, so that the same
as with cows, sales were made all the way
from steady to a dime lower. Range cows
and stockers and feeders fluctuated, as
noted above. Representative sales:

1IOOS There was a fslrly liberal run of
hogs at all points this morning for a Mon
day and as a reult prices continued on
their downward course. The market here
opened l0i1Rc lower, but the sales, that
were not more than a dime lower, were so
scarce as to be hardly worth mentioning.
The general market was right around Inc
lower and trading was very slow st the de
cllne. Toward the close the feeling was.
If anything, weaker, so that some sales
were made that looked as much as 2c
lower than the same hogs would hive
brought on Saturday. Heavyweights sold
inostlv from $4.26 to $4.30. medium weights
from $4 30 to 4.3n and lights from $4 3 to
$4 46. Owing to the lack or activity the day
was well advanced before a clearance was
mado. Representative sales:

SHEEP There was on exceptionally light
run of sheep and lumbs in the yards this
morning and. as packers all had llbernl
orders to fill, the market ruled active and
stronger. In fact, a good many killers
sold at prices ranging 10tfll5c higher than
the same kinds btuught the latter part of
last week. Not only thnt. but puckers
bought a good many that they would not
have looked at Inst week, or, In other
words, thoy were so short on supplies that
they had to buy feeders. There wero
quite a few warmed up cornfeds on SHle,
but they did not sell to good advantage.
The packers seemed to prefer the west
erns, even If they wero thin, ond as a re
sult the cornfeds were certainly no more
than steady unless they were choice.
There were very few feeders left this
morning when the packers got through,
and while there were not many buyers on
hand, the market could safely be quoted
active end steady on all der.lrable grades.

SAN FRANCIStO. Nov. 23,-Nlne men
from the French bark Francois Copne, who
'were picked up In an open boat by the
steam schooner Scotln, are still at Gulalla
bay, on the northern California const. They
will bo brought lo this city tomorrow.
Their names aro given as James Webb,
Fred Olsen. Samuel Rays, Edward Ander
son, W. G. Taylor, Jean Convlls, Nlcl Louis,
Fred Briken and C. Augustus.
The following story of the wreck of tha
bark was told by Rilken, all of the others
refusing to talk:
"About 8:30 Friday night the Franeola
Coppe dashed upon rocks at aome place
north of Polnto Reyes. Tlie weather waa
very thick. Tho sea waa heavy. Tho bnrk
had been tossed about for a couple of days
and Captain Inirlye seemed unable to fix
his bearings. When It ntruck we got ready
to launch the thteo lifeboats. We had
time to provision the boats and then they
were launched. In the boat with me wero
eight others. We got away safely.
"The boat taken by the captain was
diithcd agultiat the foundering vessel and
the men In It were thrown Into the sea
and washed away. We had been drifting
around for more than twenty hours when
picked up by the Scotia."
Captain Johnson of the Scotia thinks It
strange that the bout should have had no
officers In It and that under the alleged
circumstances It should have been provi
sioned aa If for a long voyage. No wreck
has been seen along the coast and mariners '
hint of possible trouble on board the Fran
cols Coppe and await with anxiety further
news of the missing vessel.
PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 23. The Atluntlo
transport line ship Minnesota, from London
