the noon hour and the market yielded to
the pressure. May declining to SO'ic. Prices

Corn ruled comparatively steady, with no
selling pressure manifested from any
source. There was some scattered selling
on break In wheat, hut the demand from
commission houses was sufficient to, pre

42c and 42e, May closed a shade lower, at
428 42Hc. I -oral receipts were 304 cars, with
four of contract grade.
The feature In trading in oats was the
liquidation of May, and the market had a
tendency to follow wheat although some
local longs bought quite freely and prices
were steady for December, while May
showed only a small loss. May closed a
shade lower, at 35io, after ranging between
SrHo and 36c. TOcal receipts were 2".3 cars.
Larger receipts of hogs than expected and
a decline of Its? In prices at the yards

NEW YORE STOCKS AND BONDS
Frononiiofd Smptomi of Profeiiionftl
Manipulation Are Obwmd.
RESULT IS HIGHER PRICES ALL THROUGH
Speculative Sentiment Orer the Storks
Is Kqnnlly Confosed, ns There Was
So Particularly Good News
ad Dome Bad.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1. There was a con
siderable Increase of activity In today's
stock market and a generally higher range
of prices resulted at the end of the day.
The movement continued hesitating and
somewhat Irregular and the small net
changes resulting In some of the more
active stocks left a suspicion of profes
sional manipulation. Even the purpose of
the supposed manipulation waa subject of
doubt and dispute covering such varying
suppositions as a profeslonal movement
agHinst the shorts, the bidding up of the
prices for marketing long stock and even a
purpose on the part of the bearish pro
fessionals to make a market for putting out
fresh short lines. Speculative sentiment
over stocks was equally confused. There
was little In the actual news of the day to
favor an advance In prices and some of
the news wat distinctly unfavorable. The
report of net earnings of the Erie for Octo
ber showed a decrease of $375,758. compared
with the preceding year. This was without
effect on the market, partly because It had
been foretold and was known to have be-n
due to the loss and Interruption of traffic,
by floods.
It was partly offset also by the state
ment for the same period, which showed
an Increase In net earnings of all the com
panies of $67tf,579. The general testimony
disclosed ln other statements of earnings
recently has been for Increases In gross
earnings to be mostly or wholly wiped out
by enlarged operating expenses. The re
ports of gross earnings for the third week
In November thus far published show an
Increase on the average of less than 2 per
cent, although the returns from tho coalers
are not included, and this group will com
pare with large earnings last year. The
passing of the dividend on Republic Steel,
although It had been feared, had not been
fully assured, and considering this the
effect In the industrial list was slight. That
stock itself fell an extreme 2 but recov
ered all but a fraction. There waa a re
duction in the price of copper In local mar
ket. The money market continues firm,
but the rate for call loans reached only
7 per cent, compared wWh 9 per cent of
yesterday. The expected transfer of $1,000.
000 by telegraph to Snn Francisco was
made and in addition $200,000 was trans
ferred to New Orleans, while New York
exchange at Chicago fell to a slight dis
count. The price of gold rose In London
and sterling exchange weakened here but
only $100,000 was secured In Ixndon for
New York account. Announcement was
made of about $750,000 of Japanese gold
shipped for Snn Francisco. The factors In
the advance in stocks were In the form
rather of surmise, the old rumor of a
Oould-Pennsylvanla settlement figuring to
a large extent. The strength of southern
rosda was attributed to general conditions
such as the prosperity of the cotton belt
and the harmony of railroad control as
sured by the recent seaboard air line deal.
There was an attempt to convey the im
pression that large bankers and capitalists
had been absorbing stocks in the midst of
the prevailing depression of sentiment,
looking beyond the probable revival. The
market closed firm.

easier. Business on the stock exchange
opened dull, owing to fears regarding the
situation in the far fast, though It was
generally believed that Russia was not
anxious to engage In hostilities. There
was a good undertone and prices were
fractionally firmer. Later there was some
Investment buying, but speculation was
poor. Consols opened quiet and then
spurted sharply on lear covering, but the
best quotations of the day were not main
tained. Home rails were depressed on ac
count of poor earnings, the Indifferent
trade outlook and capital requirements.
Americans opened steady at parity, the
anticipations of further gold exports to
New York being a factor of the firmness.
Ixiuisville Nashville nnd Norfolk
Western were the feat ires. There was an
Improvement later nnd prices closed firm.
Grand Trunk Juniors were tn fair recovery,
owing to the belief that the November
and December statements will make a
much better showing than that of October.
Kaffirs opened depressed on the report
that China would raise obstacles 'to the
Importation of coolies to South Africa.
Later they made a good recovery.
BERLIN. Dec. 1. Trading on the bourse

PARIS. Dec. 1. Prices on the bourse

CATTLE There was a moderate
cattle here thia morning and the demand
seemed to be euual to the supply for all
desirable grades. Trading was quite active,
so that the bum or tne arrivals was dis
posed ot In good season.
There were ubout fifteen cars of corn
fed steers on salo this morning and rome of
them were good enough to bring $4.95. They
were from the same feed lot as the cattle
that brought 15.10 last week, but they were
lacking a little in finish. As compared with
yesterday the market could safely be quoted
vteady, with everything at all desirable In
active aemana.
The cow market waa also active and fully
steady. In fact, some sales were made
that looked a little higher. There did not
seem to be any too many to meet the re
quirements of the local trade, and as a
,esuit an eariy clearance was maae at
prices very satisfactory to the selling In
terests.
Bulls, veal calves and staga could also be
quoted steady and in brisk demand.
The supply or stocaers and leeaers was
quite limited and as the demand was In
cood Shane the. market ruled active and
steady to strong. There seemed to be quite
a few buyers in irom tne country ana hii
the speculators wanted the better grades
in narUculai. common stuff, while not any
I igner. was easier to uispose 01 man nag
been the case or late.
There were not very many western grass
1eef sters on sale this morning, and under
the influence ot a good demand the market
ruled active and firm. Range cows and
stockers and feeders fluctuated, as noted
above. Representative sales:

Cotton .Market.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1 The cotton market
opened at an advance of U'ulo points on
sensationally stronger cabli. more bulllsli
predictions retarding tha probable showing
of the census bureau report expected tomor
row st noon will show the amount of cot
ton mnned todate. and estimate the prob
able amount remaining to be ginned; Arm
advices from the southern market and a
sinldea belief that there was a considerable
short interest In the msrket to -over before
the bureau report. Hefore the opening,
sentiment was vei y bullish and excited
brokers were predicting 12 cents for cotton
before the dav was over. On the Initial
advance, whirh was attended by great ac
tivity and excitement, there was heavy
realising by bull operators, who were ap
parently reduelnK their lines, possibly with
tne intention or getting into a wtter posi
tion for again supporting prlcea In case of
nny decline and this wsa heavy enough M
ease prlcea off a few points. Hut at once
mere was anotner men or eovering ana
buying orders that seemed to come from
all points of the compass and started prices
upward, and before midday December was
selling nt 11.65c; January, lift 11.75c: Mnrcli.
ll.STc; May, 11.86c: and July, 11.87c. After hit
fluctuations were very Irregular. At llrst,
realizing would rrlng about a partial reac
tion, then the market would be rall'ed
again, selling within a point or two of the
previous high level. The local bull leader
bought aggrtsslvely during the afternoon,
taking large amounts of March, while there
was buying by New Orleans bull Interests,
and during the entire session the market
showed a good, firm undertone. The clo g
was down several points irom tne nest.
but steady at a net advance or VmJt points.
Sales were about a million bales. Specu
lation la centered on the probable showing
of the census report.
