adjacent points are any criterion the Inci
dent seems to have left no weuk spot In
the technical position of the market.
Events which guided the list In one direc
tion or the other iacluded easy money on
time and call, a further decline In ex
change and vague warnings of financial
disaster which emanated from a familiar
New Kngland source.
The moat noteworthy feature of the
early trading, and. Indeed of the day. Was
I'nlon 1'atlllc, which scored a new high
record on a very heavy volume of busi
ness. There was more talk of buying of
the stock "for control." but this was
simply a variant of the many rumora
heard In unofficial quarters. The concur
rent strength of the Hill railway share
furnished additional footing for specula
tive gossip and predictions of a readjust
ment of the railway situation In the west
and northwest. Thnt some deal of great
proportions involving tho Hill and ifarrl
m;n properties is under way Is the firm
conviction of those who buy and sell securi
ties, but any definite Information on this
point is probably a long way off. In
marked contrast to the atrength of I'nlon
Puclllc was th? weakness of Southern
Pacific. This stock has shown heaviness
ever since the recent publication of its
annual report, which was accompanied by

20. WHEAT Mar-
(HICAUO mAI AXU PI0lflO9
I'ealnres of the Tradlotc and Closlug
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Dec.-J. Liberal primary re
ceipts and a break in the pi icy of corn
were Influential factors contributing to a
weak wheat market here today. At tho
close wheat for May delivery waa oft HIP
4r, corn waa down and oats showed a
loss of tSHc Provisions were from 7Vc
to 12V lower.
The wheat market was weak throughout
the entire day. Early In tho session prices
were weak on reports of declines In the
northwestern .markets. The . fuilure .of.
Liverpool to respond to the advance on tho
local board yesterday was an Important
factor. Many local traders who covered
hort line on the upturn of yesterday put
out new short line today and there was
for a time small response from the bulls.
The nlump In corn also caused selling.
Heavy primary receipts of 623,000 bu., as
against 648,0110 bu. for the corresponding
day of last year, also encouraged the bears.
During the last half hour commission
houses bought actively and there was a
decided Improvement in the demand. This
resulted In a recovery of n large portion
of the loss recorded early in the duy. The
market closed easy. May opened Vi'flSo
lower at 8KVnlwyp. sold up to 8sc and
decllped to 87,c. Final quotations were at
KSijUo-v,c. Clearances of wheat nd flour
were equal to 3tV"A bu. Minneapolis, li
luth and Chicago reported receipts of t"2
cars, against 702 last week and &35 a eat
ago. 1 4,4
Reports of a "corner" In December, which
were numerous early In the day, caused
firmness In the corn market. Toward the
middle of the day general liquidation
brought about a sharp break. The selling
was Induced by a report that a quantity
of No. I corn had been purchased tor the
Furpose of delivering at a penally on
tecember contracts. The close was weak.
Mav opened a shade to He lower at 44lVe.
to 44(K)1c. sold up to 44v and then
declined to 44'i44lc. Final quotations were
at 44Lc. Local receipt were 2ti4 cars, with
six of contract grade.
The break In corn brought about exten
sive profit-taking In oats, resulting in a
weak market. Trading w is confined mainly
to local dealers. wv opened unchanged
to a shade lower at 3.'Vu3;'V' to 32V, oll
down to 31Tc and closed at 317u'32c. I.octil
receipts were 11a cars.
Soiling by small packers had a weaken
ing effect on the provisions market. The
condition of the grain markets was one
reason for the selling. Another bearish
factor was the heavy receipts of live hogs.
At the close May pork was off 124e at
)13.n5. lard was down "V at $7.35 and ribs
were 7Sc lower ut 17.20.
Ratlmated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
24 ears: corn, 33 cars; oats, 146 curs; hogs,

The receipts and shipments of grain
ns a result of the coming dividend reduc
tion ana the extreme weakness of Con
solidated Qas wa presumably In sympathy.
The early advance took In practically all
the granger and coal carriers, as well as
the trunk line. In the Industrial group
the metal stocks and Sugar were strong.
London's attitudo towurd this market waa
rather noncommltal, closing prices there
for Americans being alKttit equally divided
between gains and losses. letter London
traded In uhout 30,000 shares here, buying
chiefly of I'nlon Pacific and selling on
balance. Sentiment was Inclined to be
bearish and with tla usual caution Ijondon
seemed disposed to reduce Its holdings over
the approuchlng holidays.
The bulk of the day s business was done
In the early hours, trading falling off soon
after midday, when the market became
dull and more narrow, with the trend
tuwnrd lower prices. This movement
gathered its greatest force in the last half
hour, when a revival of the rumors of
bank troubles in New Knglan.l caused a
Hury in call loans, which rose to IS per
cent ami produced a flood of selling orders.
Tho heavy offerings of stocks wiped out
the early galrui In such Issues a Amalga
mated Copper and American Smelting and
Refining ond final prices were. In numerous
Instances, below those of the previous day.
Inclines of 2 point or more from the
day's best prices were made by Union

notewortny raii-

The total number of cattle received the
first three day of this week Is 14,668 head,
which Is smuller than the first three daya
of last week by about 6.000 head, but is
larger than for the first three days of
the corresponding week last year by about
6.500 head. There waa only a sprinkling
of western beef cattle on the market, but
there were quite a number of western
stockers and feeders. The general quality
of the offerings wo quite common.
There wa only a small number of beef
steers on the market and the quality was
rather common In most cases. Then. too.
a portion of the offerings consisted of
warmed-up or short fed slufT. However,
the supply waa small and the demand was
good, as pacaers nave oeen anon xor a
couple of days. The market this morning
was aotlve and strong.
The aupplv of cows and heifers offered
for sale waa rather limited and, as was
the cage with the beef steers, the quality
of the arrivals was quite common except
for a few scattering loads. There was a
good demand front local buyers and trad
ing was quite active on the better kind of
stock. However, the warmed-up and short
fed cows were rather slow sellers. The
market on cows and heifers mas strong.
There was oniy a iiiniieu supply or
