In hire days and It la thought by aoma to be

waterman, the Albany miller wno took tna
wheat on the July delivery this year, has
lieen credited with having a line now of
l.'W.OW bushels. The Minneapolis Miller
sys the flour output for the week de

13M.2MI. aa against 241,4) for last year.
'I here ha oeen a neavy lalung ou m
t orders ln-e the first of the month, but
I he demand la still fully up to the average
for this season. The milts thla year will
slop for only twenty-four hours holiday In
place of the usual six days, Prof. iac
Mlllan of the University of Minnesota rinds
every Indication of disastrous wheat rust
In 1:. which will materially effect the
crop on the Red river valley. Ha liaa madt
a long study of the Indication and rays
the farmers must got new eed. The De
cember wheat In Chicago opened up at
II 134. slightly stronger than th Wedne
clay close, and advanced during the early
hours to 31 144. The market waa narro
and professional and a number of atop
order uncovered easily broke It to 11. II1.
J.ater It rallied a little and at noon stood
at II 13.
That European and Argentina com stock
ar wel; used up there seem little doubt
and tho foreign market must turn to
America for Ita corn until the new Arger,
thi crop come in. The outlook la goo.)
and large amounts have already been en
gaged for shipment. Oceau ratea have ad
vanced and the shipping companies are
some of them unable to take more grain.
New York reported a cargo Wednesday- for
Russia and a cargo of No. 3 yellow waa
sold the same day In Chicago to go from
New Orleans in March for Roumanla. Chi
cago I aald to have aold 75u.or bushels
during the day. There were plenty of ac
ceptance today of corn on Wednesday's
advance. With the strong foreign and do
mestic domand, if the farmer do not sell
more freely, a further advance aeems prob
able. The car shortage will contribute to
tnia. it la aiao going to pinch aome ot
the abort who have corn In the coun
try, but cannot get It to Chicago In time
to have it cleaned for December delivery.
The ahorts who have drying house will
come out all right, but the great majority
will have to go In the open market and
cover their lines. The December advanced
a point before noon.
The oat market I stirring a little. There
haa been a considerable buying of the
July and It la said to be for Cudahy. Thla
haa brought the remote option more
strength than the near by.
The Omaha Oraln exchange, together
with all of the other grain markets, except
Minneapolis, will close both Saturday and
Monday. Minneapolis cloaea only the latter
day.

The wheat market wa strong at the
orenlr.g. May being up 'viSc ' liU'W
I K1 strength at Liverpool, r"ulting from
a report of unfavorable harvest watner in
Argentina, was the principal soi.ne of the
Miiii.il flrmnees. For a lime there waa
f.ilrly active buying by commission houses
bud bull traders. Shorts were urgent bid
ders for the Dec'mtwr delivery, causing a
sharp upturn in the price of tnar mouth.
!! fore the demand w tlfl-d May had
advam-ed to tl 12". As the session pro-
sri-ssd cnnsld'Tabie pressur. of Iecembcr
offerings dovflopeil, causing a reaclnn.
loiter in the day the d line in that de
livery became quite pronounced, and In
consequence distant futures were materla.ly
affected. Halllng sales by pit traders aeut
the price of May oown to II. IIS Argentina
exports fur the week were estimated by a
British crop expert at l.a).i bushels ami
as the previous week's shipments were .l -tM)
busnel eome selling done on that
account. The market closed eiisy. with
May at II. US Clearances of wheHt and
Hour were equal to J bushels. Primary
receipts were 773. fro bushels, compared with
l.ll,:ini) a year ao. Minneapolis, liuhith
and Chicago reported receipts of W cars,
against V.7 Inst werk and Hf'i a year ago.
Covering of Iiecember by ahortsi caused a
firm tone In the corn market early In the
day. The flrmnesa wh made noticeable
In view of the local liberal receipts. I.ater
in the day offering became quite free and
In consequence an easier tone developed.
May opened unchanged to 'c higher at 4TH
!47.o, aold off to Vr and closed at the
lower point. I.ocaI receipts were cars,
With 3 of contract grade.
The feature of trading In nats was the
buying of July by a local provision Interest.
As a result of thla demand the market was
firm throughout the entire session. May
opened a shade higher at 31Hc sold between
81ti3H4c and 314j.Hc and closed at 31Wc
L"'-a receipts were 72 cars.
The market for provisions was dull and
the tendency of prices was downward.

NEW TORK. D.'. 22 There wa a fur
ther downward swing In the price level to
day, but the trading became so listless nd
nearly stagnant as to demonstrate the In
ertia of the mark-t. The languid Interest
Is attributed by the hopeful element among
the traders to sensonable cause. -pecially
the near approach of a triple holiday and
the week Intervening between Christmas
and New Tears, slth the usual attractions
to draw away attendance at the Stock ex
change. This element continues to talk In
sanguine strain of the upward price move
ment which Is to follow the holiday inter
val. At present operation are In the hands
of smaller professionals. The entire lack of
outside participation In the market leaves
no medium for working In and room traders
And no adequate returns In dealing with
each other. The fluttering and uncertain
movement of prices Is a natural result of
this state of affairs and does not need other
explanation.
Actual news developments ' certainly
played little part in today market. The
unfavorable influence of the report of the
commissioner of corpore.llons lingered and
the subject whs actively discussed In all
quarters of the financial world. The method
of proclamation of trouble to come In the
market which ha attracted so much atten
tion of late, had some revival. It wa cei-suiere-I
thiit the published exchanges which
have grown out of this attack have not
conduced to stimulate general operations
in the stock market owing to the revela
tions made by some psst transaction Jrom
which analogies can be drawn to arouse
suspicion of new movements. It had been
loudly claimed by some enthusiasts that the
Re-idlng dividend was to be at the rate or
4 per cent a year and the announcement
made yesterday afrer the closing of t'nj
market of a 3 per cent rate brought a good
desllng of the stock, whether by those who
had foretold a 4 per cent or by those who
had bought stock from the m did not sppear
clearly. Th additional advances In lines of
Iron and steel products did not hold the
pi Ices of the United StHtes Steel stocks,
and the only news of condition that could
arconnt for their heaviness was of the
trouble from drouth and wuter supply for
mills In western Pennsylvania and easter'i
Ohio. The report that anthracite mines
would close down during the holiday modi
fled the effect of the 'report of very active
demand for coal.
Some further gold went out. but large ar
rival of gold from India were reported In
Ixndon and sharp rise in sterling at Ber
lin marked the cessation of the German
capital demands for gold. Money here
was extremelv easy, but without power to
stimulate the' stock market. The market
fell Into practical stagnation In the latter
part of the day and cloaed heavy and llfe
tes. Ronds were easy, with total sales, par
value. 32.SS5.0r). United State bonds were
unchanged on call.

CATTLE The supply of cattle wa again
small and with a fair demand trading ruled
active on desirable grades, with prices fully
as good as yesterday. Some of the trslna
were late In arriving, but aside from those
an early clearance was made.
Cornfed steers could ssfely be quoted
steady todav and some sales were perhaps
a little stronger where the quality and
weight Just happened to suit haiyers. Most
of the cattle on sale had been fed but a
short time, but still there were some cattla
good enough to bring 35. Warmed-up stuff
sold unevenly, the same a usual, and trad
ing on that kind wa not particularly ac
tive, but price were steady on the average.
Buyers took hold of the cow stuff quite
freely and the market could probably best
be described bv calling It steady to strong.
All the buyers seemed to want a few, and
the light receipt forced them to pay strong
prices for the kind they all wanted. The
less desirable grade, though, did not how
a great deal of change. Practically every
thing wa sold at an early hour.
Bulls, veal calves and stags aold without
a great deal of trouble at generally steady
pricea.
The demand for atocker and feeder from
the country yesterday wa fairly good for
the time of the year and as receipt were
nnt nt oil hesvv thin mnmhii the market
ruled active and atrong on the better
grades with other about steady. Repre

run of sheep r-
nvea tnt morning and, all th packers
needed tesh supplies, the market ruled
ctlv nd higher. Some ales. In fact,
showed considerable advance. Good stuff,
however, waa rather scarce and that wa
particularly the case with lamb. Some
Mexican wethers were sold to arrive st
.V 40 from the same lot as those that were
here on Tuesday, but they were not
heavy. Colorado fed wether brought 5.;J
and some fair lamb 35.75. With the excep
tlon of a few late arrivals everything was
disposed of In short -order. A compared
with the close of last week the market 1
all the way from luc to 26c higher, so that
a good share of the dtcllne of the latter
part of last week ha been regained.
There were not enough feeders here this
morning to make a fair test of the mar
ket and th prices paid looked Just about
steady with yesterday.
