2ijSc.
Strength In th wheat market aeveiopea
during the first hour of trading. At the
start, however, the market waa rareiy
steady, clear sklea In the northwest having
a depressing effect on values. Opening quo
tation on December were a shade lower
o a shad higher at MTfSMc. traders
were disposed to sell and with ths little
apparent support the market eased on,
December selling at Mfi'tc. Later a
loading bull beeam an active buyer and
sentiment I
there was a Quick change In
generally. Offerings dwindled, sellings being
more or lee held In check by the attitude
of th principal long. New of a bullish
character tended to bring demand rrom
shorts. A message from New York stated
that France was buying American wheat.
During the last half of th session Decem
ber reached the highest point of the day.
84e. The clos-, though showing some re
cession, wa firm with December at 84VfJ

throughout the entire session. Commis
sion houses and shorts were active buyer.
Small receipts and a good export demand
were Influential factors A report from the
northwest stated that the crop in tnat sec
tion had deteriorated IS per cent In the
last month owing to wet weather. The
market closed firm with prices almost at
th highest point. December opened MTrp
o higher at 44t44'4c, sold up to 4Se and
rinsed at 45Ue. Local receipts were 353
cars, with 159 cars of contract grade.
Trading In the oats pit wa active ana
the market had a strong undertone. The
chief basis of strength was a report of an
Increased demand from exporters. 8horts
and commission houses were n't Ire buyer.
December opened a shade higher, at 28S'
2c. sold up to 2fl29c and closed at 214
Ci2.c. Local receipt were 10 cars.

Great,
NEW YORK. Pept 20.-Noth!ng In th
news which became public today would ac
count adequately for th reversal of specu
lative sentiment from yesterday's depres
sion. But the rebound In price was an ef
fective demonstration of the resllencv of
,ne market from pressure. It proves the
nnnn uun iit-tiiii gno11. in low lieiriiur-
hood of the Stock exchange that the float
ing supply of stocks I scarce and profes
sional bear traders find difficulty In cover
ing their short contracts. Considerable lines
of short were put yesterday and th buy
ing to get back these stocks probably waa
most responsible for today's advance.
Th market continued narrow and pro
fesajonal. The spectacular advance In a
limited number of stocks Is not convincing
of a widespread demand In the market In
general ana commission houses continue to
complain that the outaM demand la scanty.
Holders cling to their stocks, however, and
nothing seems effective to dlalodg holdings
except the actual withdrawal of credit by
which they are held. Th Immediate pres
sure on borrowers has become relaxed and
the general outlook continues so favorable
that further selling of stocks seems to be
expected unless the hardening tendency of
the money market shall be renewed. The
course of the currencv movement thus far
this week makes It unlikely that the coming
bank statement will show any potable
shrinkage In the cash reserves and the
trust companies are therefor relieved for
the moment from the call to take over
loans from the banks In order to enable
the latter to scale down deposit liabilities
to keep pace on Inroad on their cash. The
eubtreasury's heavy debit balances at the
clearing house haa left a small balance to
the advantage ot the banks on the week
thus far. Foreign stock markets seemed to
conclude today that the expected rise to
morrow In the Bank of England discount
rat has been adequately provided against.
Reassuring official atatementa regarding th
Moroccan question relieved apprehension on
that point. The New York market was In
consequence freed from the pressure of for
eign selling and this contributed materially
toward allowing tne recovery in price.
The most notable movement of th day
were traceable to Individual Influences. Re
ports of Important development In the
Northern Securities settlement were re
vived effectively In connection with th ap
proaching annual meetings of the Or eat
Northern and Northern Pacific The rise In
that group of stocks stimulated some sym
pathetic strength In other hlgh-prloed rail
road stocks. The notorious existence of an
active speculative pool In Reading was
given most of the credit for the renewed
spurt In that stock. ' The organ of the an
thracite trade, however, spoke in ft rery
cheerful strain of the demand in that In
dustry. The annual report of th Central
Railroad of New Jerssy wa a help to that
group. In the same way New York Cen
tral wa aided by Its statement of quarterly
earnings. The revived strength of Canadian
Paolflo was due to reports of prosperous
condition, which have served before to lift
that stock. Rates for foreign exchange
rose decidedly away from the gold Import
point. Time money rates were called some
what easier, but call loan rates were held
firmly at above 3 per cent.
Ronds were firm. Total sales, par value.

CATTLE There was another big run here
today, about 329 loads being on sale. Tne
receipts were some 103 cars heavier than
last Wednesday and some thirty-two car
lighter than the same day last year. The
general quality of the cattle was good.
There was a fair sprinkling of native
stuff on sale and there were some good cat
tle offered. Buyers seemed to want the
cornfeds more than they did the westerns
and there was a little better feeling on
them, although buyers were In a bearish
mood all the morning and there was a weak
tone to tha trad all through. Buyers wer
not anxious for cattle of any class and the
movement could not be called active at any
time. Prices on native stuff were generally
weak to a little lower, while the common
kinds were off a dime. Western cattle wer
In good supply but buyers were not overly
anxious for them and they did not change
hands very rapidly. The general market
on these kinds was oft CrfllOc. with the com
moner kinds feeling the full benefit of the
decline.
Cows and heifers were in fair supply to
day, but tha demand waa not active and
trading was slow. Buyers pounded the she
stuff yesterday and were In a bearish mood
again today, so that conditions were against
selling Interests. The general cow trad
was 5910c lowei and some of the common
kinds were off even more than this.
Bulls, veal calves and stags were also
weak snd prices were lower.
There was a good srfbply of stockers and
feeders here, and while there was a good
call for the stuff, buyers wer Inclined to
be bearish and trading was rather slow at
lower prices. Good, fleshy feeders were
weak, while the general run of stuff was
weak
sales:

HOGS There wss another light run of
hogs here today and this fact, together with
encouraging reports from eastern points,
gav sellers the advantage and the market quoted at $16 7S.frl7.26: No. 2 foundry north
showed considerable strength. The stuff ar- 1 rrn at $16 26416 76: No. 1 foundry southern
rived early and buyers seemed to want sup- ' ,,t tl I18 76; and No. 2 foundry southern
plies. Trading, while It could not be called at $15 75jjl&0
active, was not now, a uiorrv wen pica
Ing up stuff right along. Quality counted
most and weight was not taken ro much
into consideration as on some days. The
general market was fully &c higher than
yesterday's best time, the bulk of the hogs
selling at $5 3&ii5.4o. Some loads changed
hands at a bigger advance than noted
above. There w-re a good many hoga
$5 C. some at lo 45. and
lightweights topped the
prime load of
market at $5.50.

ctHEEP-Thar was a
Ilght supply
sheep for a Wednesday, only ntn cars ot
freu receipts coming In. Th offerings
for ths two opening days of the week
wer liberal, about 41.000 head being re
ceived. The market on both da w
fairly active and the demand was good
enough to clean everything up at prices
steady with the rlos of last wek, with
th exception of about I F-'1 lambs. Which
wer held over from yesterday simply be
cause they could not b shaped Uf in tlin
to ) I on Tusaday's market. With this
holdover there were about twenty car on
le today. The frh receipt consisted
almost entirely of lamb and there was a
fairly good feeder end'to the offering. Th
market here is In satisfactory condition
ami the demand for all classes of sheep
and lamb Is good. Today a market ruled
stronger a compared with yesterday, on
me opening some stun sold at steaay
prices, but the market strengthened, and
the bulk of the stuff eold as noted above.
Feeder sheep and lambs were In good de
mand and also changed hands at stronger
prices.
