CHICAGO, Dec. 8. Notvstthstandlng a
general soluna movement today una bear
ish new, both domestic ana foreign, a
serious break in wheat was preventeu, the
principal factor being big purcnaaes by
tne leading longs. May wheat cioeed Wit
lower. May corn was on Vfcc, oats wew
ouwn ', whiie May provisions closed from
te to lOo lower.
v.ommiaslon houses were free sellers of
July wheat early In the session and pit
trailers sold May. The cause of the sel
ling at The start was the lower tone of
caolea In the strengtn exhibited here yes
terday. May opened a snade to S4-V
lower, at tKW&JV and on liberal onwr
Ings from, local traders the price quickly
dropped to 81CtT',4c. On the decline tiie
luaucr or the uulis supported tne marxet,
buying heavily and a steadier tone devel
oped. The local crowd, however, sold
lieely throughout the session, influenced
to a great extent by the weaane st
Minneapolis. News was of a bearish char
acter, receipts In the southwest being ex
tremely large and primary receipts show
ing a fair increase, over those of a year
ago. The Kansas crop report was. also
bearish In that It showed a much larger
crop than had been estimated and the con
dition was but little under that of last
year. The buying of the big bull operator
was the feature of the day and by to
day's trading he Is reported to have added
l.tuO.OOO bushels to his holdings. Outside
tnarketa showed losses and heipe4 depress
prices hare. There was less pressure to
sell late In the day and the close was
steady at the decline with May off HtTHc,
at &io. Clearances of wheat and Hour
were equal to 610,700 bushels: Primary re
ceipts were 1,219. WO bushels, against 972,
900 bushels a year ago. Minneapolis, Du
luth and Chicago reported receipts of 836
cars, compared with 93 cars laat week
and 618 cars a year ago.
Corn again had a weak undertone and
prices at times showed considerable loss.
The continued fine weather, freer coun
try offerings from Illinois and the general
talk of receipts all weighed upon the mar
ket and a bearish sentiment prevailed.
The cash market was decidedly weak and
Influenced speculative trading. A big pro
vision house was supposed to have been
the chief seller, while the same interest
that were leaders In the wheat Pit were
the best buyers. After opening unchanged
to Ko lower, at WfrKi'K'MB, may oia oo-
ween 42442Ho and -c, closing at 4Zfto.
,ocal receipts were 34 cars, wun oi
contract grade. ,
Oats - traders were guided entirely by
the action of the leading grains and as a
result the market ruled essler.- . Trading
was prlnolpully of a local character, with
buying mainly by elevators, although a
prominent long took some offerings. The
demand was scattered. May opened He
lower at 86o. sold between S6Vtf36o and
WttC closing at 36c Local receipts were
aue cars. ' . ,
Provisions," were neglected, but in the
absence of offerings the market about held
Its own. Packers continued to soil In a
small way, but there were enough orders
from commission houses to absorb the
offerings and prices . fuled steady at a
small decline. An easier hog-market was
the cause of a small loss. May pork closed
7Wtfil0o lower, at 111.27": May lard was off
2o. at M. 47i4. and ribs were down 6c, at
86.05S8.07i4,
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
100 cars: corn, 196 cars; oats, 180 cars;
hogs, 41.000 head. . ,

NEW YORK, Dec. 8. The bull movement
In storks continued In force during tha
early stages of today's stock market, but
tho precipitate course of the advance over
ran the market and carried the average
level of prices below last night. The close
was eaay and without recovery. There was
no news of tha day whose Influence could
be perceived on the market. During the
bulge of the morning there Was more ap
pearance of animation and variety In the
dealings than at any time heretofore.
Stocks of all classes were transferred In
enormous blocks and at rapidly rising
prices. This great sctlvity caused skep
ticism about tne market and Induced pro
fessional traders, watchful for signs of
a turn, to put out short lines. When the
market paused after the first reaction and
then started upwards again, the demand
'from those uncovered shorts helped the
new advance.
From the outset enormous sales to re
alize were manifest In Brooklyn Transit,
which was a conspicuous feature In last
week's advance. Amalgamated Copper
fared better, adding a point to yesterday's-5-point
rise before it was seriously affected
by realising. The sympathetic effect of
strength In copper stocks generally in
home and foreign markets and a violent
advance In oopper In London helped this
slock. It closed at a net loss of 1 with
HnplftMl mfftt iinsin the snennlatlvA sentl
' ment generally. The failure of United
1 States Steel preferred to hold Its 1-point
advance waa another strong Influence on
th reaction. Reports of difficulties made
. mrlfw nv.r rAftlintlnns In WftirM u 11 rt
over closing down Important mills also
ffected this stock.
It became known today that gold waa
taken In London for account of Chicago
nd New Orleans to the extent of 2726,000.
he renewal rates for call loans were
generally marked down this morning.
borne unwary borrowers were spparentiy
in hope that still lower rates would pre
vail. Late in the day when they at
tempted to supply their needs and when
the active speculation had already made
arse inroads upon tne available money
supply, the rate for call loans was bid up
to 1 per cent witn tne urgent aemsnas 01
these belated borrowers. This flurry in
call money doubtless was a potential in
fluence on the reaction in stocks.
The optlmlstlo view of stocks and the

nA'rTI.IC'r'her. waa tha heavMt run of
cattle here today that has arrived In some
lliue time. Xradlng waa not yery active,
but, with the exception of corn-red steers,
about everything waa sold without much
ohange in prlot. , ,
Receipts lnclubed about thirty-five cars
of corn-ted steers, but most of them were
suort-fed stuff, tor which the demand' has
been very limited all the season, in fact,
buyers would hardly look at the commoner
kinds and aa a result trading waa very
slow, with prices uneveuly lower. Some
thing right uiolce 'jnignt have sold to good
advantage, but there was nothing here an
swering to that description with which to
make a test of the market. It waa very
evident that packers did not want the
warmed up and short-fed cattle and tho
prlcea they effered were certainly discour
aging to the oelllng interest.
There was not much change In the cow
market. There were about seventy-flvo
cars on sale and, considering the liberal re
ceipts of yesterday, as well aa today, the
mark.ee neia up in very satisfactory man
ner. There waa more or less tendenoy to
bear the market, but the situation could
best be described by quitting the market
steady to a little lower. The bulk of the
arrivals was disposed of In fairly good
season. i
Bulls, veal calves and stags commanded
about steady prices, with the possible ex
ception of snort corn-fed bulls, which were
slow and lower, the same aa steera
There were not very many etockers and
feeders In the yards this morning and the
market could safely be quoted steady to
strong on an aeairaoie grades, common
stuff could not be quoted any more than
steady. The demand from the country so
tar mis weea nas oeen ramer light and
confined mostly to the better arradea.
The few bunchee of western range steers
mat wouio ao tor Killers sola at about
steady prlcea Trading even on those, how
ever, was not very briak. Range cows were
steady 10 a snaoe easier and western stock-
ere and feeder steady to strong. Repre-

The market here opened generally a nickel
lower, with trading quite active at the de
cline, packers seemer" to want the hoga
and In view of th. tl ne nt other points
salesmen saw no chut . .f iircvntlng the
break and took the pili-re offered. The
bulk of the hogs sl1 mm .Z to 3136,
with a top at 84.40, which was pnld for
butcher weights. This decline takes the
market bark to about where It was on
Wednesday of last week. The bulk of the
hogs was sold In good season.
The later market waa fully aa good ns
the opening, and, In fart, for a time trad
ing waa very brisk, with prices a little
stronger. On the extreme close, however,
the prices paid were about the same as at
the opening. itepresentauve sales:

SHEEP Receipts
were fairly liberal, ua
the table above. The
will be seen from
bulk of the offering consisted or fed stuff,
though there were quite a few western
rangers. The market could be quoted about
steady on the best grades, but when It
came to the part fat kinds of both western
graasers a well as corn-feds the market
waa extremely dull and lower. In fact,
salesmen found It a difficult matter to get
packers to even bid on the short fed atock.
very evident that they are not anxious
for that kind, and aa a reault salesmen
have a hard time to dispose of It. At a
late hour there was still considerable short-
fed stock In first hands.
The demand fer feeder was also rather
limited this morning. Choice bunches
mlght.be quoted, about steady, but the
tendency was to buy all kinds a little lower.

Mrs. Dor Caaner of St. Loals Is Wondering-
How It Hart -pened.
BT. LOUIS. Dec. 8. After twenty-four
hours of investigation the police depart
ment Is still without a clue to aid In solv
ing the mystery surrounding the disap
pearance of Mrs. Dora Casner' Jewels,
worth 15,000, from a safe In her home. The
Jewels disappeared between 8 and 11

The safe In which Mrs. Casner says aha
left the Jewels when she went down town
Sunday night was closed and locked when
she returned, but ' the Jewels, she says,
were not In It.
