Th wheat market wns w-ak IJverpool, which was expected to folio yesterday American advancn and open about lo higher, opened only Vi'SSd Mutter and cloned tn4d lower. Tula scared some holder and they began lo unload, bringing price down from a lower open ing. Armour begun to support tin- nniiktt when May waa at 8e, and brought It back to Kc. There wun another break and tho close wti nearly lo below yester day. It looked to many of the trade am though Armour was veiling through com mission houses, through the hitter part of the session. December closed al Wc Ma at 8c, and July at 84c. Light movement of corn together with short covering was the cause of an ad vance tn corn. Shipments are much larger than a yeHr ago and recetKs smuller. Iecember cloned at 4c, old Deifmher at 4?fc47c. May nt 45.c. and July at 45c. There is an unlimited demand for oats, enpeulally for export, and receipts are fall ing off at country stations. Prices were about the same and trade was Urge. De cember closed at 31c, May at 3Jc and July at 81t3lo. Primary wheat receipt were 7215,000 bush els and shipments 4,0"O bushels, against receipts last year of RWi.mu bushels and shipments of 301.000 bushels. Corn receipts were o27,000 bushels and shipments 675,000 bushels, against receipts lHHt year of W, Ou) bushels and shipments of 2TM,0uo bushels. Clearances were 214,000 bushels of wheat, 139.000 bushel of oats, 44.0m) bushels of wheat and cl.noo barrels of flour. Liverpool dosed 4ad lower on wheat and unchanged to d higher. Kxport clearances of oats are enormous. Philadelphia cleared 424,000 buicls yester day, Newport News, 80,000 bushels and Bal timore 490,000 bushels. Inquiries for corn to ship to Cincinnati were received at Chicago yesterday. This is a very singular tiling at this time of rear, .when central Illinois and central ndiuna are full of corn. ,U is undoubtedly owing to the car situation. The MinneH polls Hour output last week decreased (3.26 barrels. The quantity turned out was (weejt of December 2), 351.200 bar rels, ngainwt 270,045 barrels In loot, ana 410,130 barrels In llo3. The output this week probably will appr oximate 300.000 barrels. Brnomhall cublid: "Rajputana has a rainless autumn und harvest conditions arc poor, except In the south and southeast.

' , CHICAGO."!. 7.-Llquldatlon of"1 an enormous Una of wheat by a leading holder caused a break today of nearly lo per bushel In the price of the May delivery. The market closed weak at almost the low est point of the day, tlnul quotation on May being off c. Corn waa up He. Oat were practically unchanged. Provisions howed a gain of 6c. The iluttiD in the orice of wheat occurred soon after the opening and although the market rallied several time durlnor the dav on covering by shorts, the feeling generally1 waa weaa. . iraaing was scarcely under way when brokers commenced to offer wheat in apparently unlimited quantities. Within a few minutes at least 2,000,000 uusnei oi tne May option had been thrown Into tho bit. It was generally understood that this wheat was part of the holdings of a leading bull. This started heavy sell ing by pit traders and the result was a quick decline. Before th downward course of values was chicked the price of May had fallen to 89c Toward the end of the first hour offering from the big loners be came less frequent and trading was of a pasmodlo character during the remainder of the day. The failure of the Liverpool wneai niaraei to rcspona to tne snarp ad- to the weakness on the local board. News of th day which was generally bullish was seemingly Ignored. Receipt in th north west were small and total primary receipt were lens than for the corresponding day a year ago. Demand for cash wheat, hnth In the northwest and southwest, continued unabated. In addition an official report stated that the wheat crop of India hud been seriously damaged by drought. The market closed weak, with May at 89o. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 318.000 bushel. Primary recelnts aim 736.OU0 bushels, compared with 890.0UO bushel a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi cago reported receipts of 44 car against 733 cars a year ago. Notwithstanding th break In wheat the corn market was Arm for the greater part Of th day. IJght offering from the ennn. try and continued demand from exporter formed the basis pf the strength. The market closed firm with prices at practi cally th highest point of the dav.' May opened unchanged to 14c lower at 4&Vi8H5Vc, old between 44T't4fo and 45'4c and closed at 4640. Local receipt were 223 car with on of contract of grade. Oat were nrm on active demand from nit trader and commission houses. The urgent demand from foreigner for American oat wa th chief source of strength. Htnall local receipts augmented the bullish senti ment. May opened unchanged to a shade lower at S3fi3JVc. sold between 32T4 and 8JVA3,14kC and closed at MUc Trading in provisions was active and the marai naa a strong undertone. The May product wera in good demand from In vestor. There was moderate covering by shorts and soma, buying by hrokera cred ited to leading packers. Offerings came chiefly from small holders.

CALL RATE RISES TO 23 PER CENT j Valae Drop from One to Two Point F.arly la Seasloa, tint Rally and Close Strong. NEW TORK. Dec. 7.-The stock market struggled against the severe stringency In the money fnarket today and escaped with out serious damage to values, .xfter the rerlod of greatest weakness in the morning, n fact there were general recoveries under the influence of the skyrocket advance in Tennessee Coal and vigorous upward move ment In other special stocks. Money on call was quoted as high a 28 per cent, thus rising above the previous maximum for the year, . touched last month. Today's high rate. In fact, has not been equalled before or since October. 19)2. The behavior of the stock market now and then afforded a striking contrast. Money conditions as stringent as those today could not fall to depress the stock market. But a general subject of comment was the sllghtness of the depression In view of the circum stances, lyosse at the extreme low level of the day wera not excessive in any stocks. It was notable also that they were quite uniform between 1 and 2 points. Where the losses ran beyond the uverage they were not found in the stocks which have been subject to the greatest ecula tlve activity in th Immediate past. Jn faA these shares were conspicuously exempt In the unfavoraHle effect of the very high rates for money. The deductions drawn from this state of affairs were that the organised speculation which has been con ducted for some time past had provided Itself largely with time loans before the scarcity developed In the money market. The absence of forced liquidation at the present time on the part of large opera tions or tne past tew weens is capable of no other explanation. The small effect proaucea on the general market warrants ne deduction also that the general outside participation in the speculation on tne part of operators dependent On the ordinary re sources of the money market must be small. 1 Ills is in strong contrast with tho specula 1 11' 11KV r J 44.2" IS.7' ll. 1.010 l.M l.soo n 37 "4) 14 43 113 21' 42 , M 1H 13Mi 42 112V4 K7 41 V. 8.

CahlE-There was a rather light run of cattle on the market toouy, 16 cars, about 4.1o0 head being reported up to noon. Tne run for the day la a little larger than that for the same day two weeks ago, when 2.400 head were received, and as compared with th run for the corresponding day lust year it is smaller by about 1.300 head. There were only a small number of beef steer on the market today and trade wa In about-the same condition as yesterday. Thera were a couple of loads of good beef steer on the market and thane found ready ale at prices that were generally steady with yesterduy, considering the quality. The trade was reasonably active, with the market generally steady. Packers were bidding lower for the stock, but sellers were holding on well, and as a rule were selling at steady prices. There wa a moderate supply of cow and heifer on the market tnls morning, and there was a moderate demand for this kind of stuff on the part of the local pack ers and also from the outside butchers who had sent in a fuw orders. However, while the trade was reasonably nctlve. buyers were bidding lower on everything except canners and this kind of slock was selling mostly at prices that were generally strong to a dime higher. The market on cow closed the day steady to a little easier. There wa a reasonably good-slsed run of Blockers and feeders on the mar ket today and the demand from both speculator and country buyer wa good and n a result there waa a mod erately active trade and a good healthy tone to the market, i railing cioseu tne day with prices steady to strong. Representative scales: 8IIEKP There ws a rather small run of sheep on the market today, nine cars, about 2.500 head, being reported In up to noon. The receipts for the same day two weeks ago were three times as large and for the corresponding day last year they were nearly twice as large. As has been the case for the last couple of weeks there were practlca'y no good choice fat sheep on the market, while there has been a fairly strong demand for this kind of sheep on the part of the packers. This morning was no exception to the gen eral rule and there was only a sprWnilng of fut sheep on sale. What there was In sight found ready sale at prices that were practically steady with yesterday's market. Good choice Xmas lambs, of which there were a smalt number In sight, were lh good demand and brought fairly strong prices that can hardly be compared with sales of lambs on the previous days this week, this is the first lot of strictly choice fat lHmbs that have been on the market for some time. A small lot of strictly prime fat lambs sold early this morning for $7.50. Most of the stock on the market this morning consisted of feeding sheep and the quality was gencrnlly speaking not of the best in the world. There were quite a num ber of country buyers In again today, but they were rather particular as lo choice of stock. However, the trade was fairly actlv and price were practically Steady with those of yesterday and perhaps a trills firmer In spots.
