Trading waa well under way before weak
neaa developed lt, the-. wheat roar ft. Cur
ing the first hour feeling in the pit was
bulllSQ. May opened Vfto higher at 8m
sisk4o and Oi; demand from' pit traders
and ahorts the orloe rose to RMc. A
report from ArgenMna that weather waa
not entirely favorable for harvesting waa
one reason for tla? firmness. Another was
reports of drouth In India. As tha sea
aion advanced offerings Increased In vol
ume. Much of tha aelilng waa done by
commission houses with northwestern con
nections. This selling pressure waa due to
a belief that the railroads would be able
to furnish cars In the near future, which
would result In a largely Increased sup
ply. Later tho market was further weak
ened on reports that export demand was
very light. Increased primary receipts fur
nished additional encouragement to the
bears. During the day the price of the
May option declined to 88H6Bttc. The
market closed weak with May at 88 Ho.
.Clearances of- wheat and flour were equal
to 191.000 bushels. Primary recelpta were
. V44.0U0 bushela compared with 99.JflO buah
ela one year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and
Chicago reported receipts of t2 cars against
48 cars last week and 670 cara one year
ago.
Small local recelpta held the corn market-
ateady early In the day, but selling
by cash houses and pit traders soon
caused a decline. Weakness of wheat, art
estimate of liberal recelpta for tomorrow
and lower prlcea for cash com Induced the
selling. The market closed weak with
r rices practically at tha loweat point of
he day. May opened a shade to ta higher
at 44V to 44-Vu44ttc. Bold oft to 43Va44c
and closed at 44c. Local receipts were 280
cars with 4 of contract grade.
Oata were' Influenced by the break In
wheat and corn. Cash demand waa leaa
brisk and local receipts were larger, ar
rivals today being 101 cars. May opened
a shade to Ho higher at 3S432c to S2c,
declined to 324o and closed at 32Sc.
Despite an advance of to In tha price
of live hogs,-the provision market waa
weak. ' The feature of trading waa selling
by packers. The greatest pressure was
on pork, and that commodity ahowed the

Sotiion.
UNION PACtriC LEADS ADVANCE
Prices Break Ute In the
Day on Heavy Reallalng,
hat (inlet Reaction
fell
NEW YORK, Deo. 13-The Stock market
continued to show the organised operations
of speculative parties and pools In the
systematic, supporting measures In some
part of the market, while stocks were fed
t ut to realise profits at other points. The
other conspicuous points of strength early
In the day were amongst the specialties
and the tone of the market after a time
reflected an unfavorable effect on the senti
ment. The bad effect waa partly removed
by the coming Into prominence of Amalga
mated Copper and seemed entirely removed
by the reversion of the demand to the rail
road Hat, led by Union Pacific The trans
actions In these stocks were of extraor
dinary volume and Union Pacific rose
easily by successive stages to a new record
level. Its aggressive advance had much to
do In pulling up prices elsewhere that had
developed a pretty general sagging ten
dency, Including sharp reactions In stocks
which had been opened at violent advances.
Csll money was appreciably easier again
and standing loans of that class were re
newed by the banks and trust companies at
per cent compared with yesterday's pre
vailing 10 per cent rate. Assurance was
not fully restored that the money market
could be kept exempt from disturbance for
the rest of (he year, and the quotations for
time loan for the shorter periods continued
very firm with a commission exscted tor se
curing thirty, sixty and ninety-day loans be
sides the 8 per rent legal rate. But with the
Immediate s'upply of money mora plentiful
the Impatient speculation waa quick to
avail Itself of the meana afforded and to
rush Into any point of the market that
offered a promising lead towards an ad
vance. Less attention was paid to the
foreign situation and money markets abroad
showed no appreciable changes. Belling of
stocks for continental account, however,
was reported from London. The movement
In Amalgamated Clipper was but a supple
ment to tha universal speculative activity
In securities associated with the copper
Industry. Its advance to par waa greeted
with a demonstration. The price of the
metal continued to advance here and In
London and reports were current of sales
being made at much above the market to
secure early delivery. A faorable effect
was produced by a report that settlement
had been effected of the dispute over
freight rates for corn export averting the
threat of a war of rates between the At
lantic and gulf port terminals for this
traffic.
The easier tone of the call loan market
was closely followed by the recovery In
foreign exchange. The recent selling of
securities here for foreign account Increases
the demand for exchange. The statement
of agrlcutural exports for November, how
ever, showed an expansion In value over
those for the corresponding month of last
year of 811.802.165, the value of cotton ex
ports rising well over those for last month
and reducing the discrepancy with those
for the November preceding to less than
32.000.000. Exnorts of breadstuff and provi
sions, meantime, show a heavier valuation
than for anv month In more than two
years past. The assembling of the United
Mine Workers' convention, fixed for Mo
morrow, received a good deal of discus
sion and was held to account for the r fl
airs In t manifest In the movements of the
coalers. The judicial decision In the New
York municipal elections was the ground
for the flurry In the local public utilities.
The profit taking under cover of this last
movement came with a rush In the flnal
hour and sent prices downwards with some
precinltancy and especially in the buoyant
features of the day. But the reaction was
checked and some headway effected towards
a rally, leaving the closing tone Irregular.
The following was the range of prices on
the New York Stock exchange:
Sales. High. Low. Close.

a moderate run of

about 5,300 head being reported in. The
receipts for the first three day. of this
week were about 19,013 head, which is
about 8,0u0 head larger than the run for th.
aama daya laat week. The recelpta for the
corresponding week laat year were also
smaller than for this week by about 3 500
head. Trains were delayed In getting In.
.0 that It wa. late before some of the
catUe were up and In shape to be shown '
There waa only a small supply of beef
steers on the market, there being only a
few loads of beef cattle In sight, the most
of the offerings being of rather Inferior
quality. Generally epeaklng. the market
wa. Inclined to be a little .low, with price.
Just about ateady.
The supply of cows and heifer, wss only
moderate and tha quality of the offerings
waa about the aame aa that of steers. Oood.
choice cow., however, were aelilng roadlly
at good, steady price., while tha common
and medium kind of atock were a little
eaaier. There waa only a small number of
heifers on the market and the quality of
these waa rather poor.v A moderate aupply
of heifer. w-JUld probably bring good
prlcea, a. packer, are wanting some of
that kind of stock.
As has been the case for the last few
days, tha larger portion of the receipt,
consisted of stocker. and feeders. The
lower yards are full of feeder rattle now.
and feeders of all kinda are fully a quar
ter lower than laat week. Aa a result the
market on stockera and feedera thla morn-Ina-
was rather slow and weak.

so that the aheap did not get In until
late.
There were not very many fat sheep on
the market, the larger portion of the run
consisting of feeding sheep. Thero waa a
moderately good demand for fat sheep on
the part of the packers, with the result
that trading on fat atock waa reaaonably
aotlve. Price, on thia kind were generally
In lust about the same notches as yester
day. A load of wethers sold early for 83.76,
a good price, while a lot of range lambs
brought 86.76.
There was a good run of feeder sheep
on tne market, the majority or receipts
being range feeders. There were also a
number of country buyers In so that trad
ing was reasonably active and price, were
practically ateady. Trading on lambs was
rather slow and the market on this kind of
stock was a little easier.
