Prlrea on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Dec. 21. Ofrlclal confirmation
of a largn yield of wheat In the United
States caused weakness in the wheal mar
ket today. At the close wheat for May
delivery was down He. Corn was up V:.
Kits were unchanged. Provlsluna were from
2toc to "He higher.
The wheat market was weak for the
greater fart of the day, until late In the
aesslon there was little support In evidence.
Th. chief factor In the situation wsa the
government report, which estimated the
total yield of winter wheat nt 43M&3.000
bu. and spring wheat at 'Jt4.616.0iiO bu. These
flrutes werw somswonl. larger than previ
ously estimated by local houses. Bears
were further encouraged by an Increase
of 1 OOO.OuO bu. In the stocks of wheat at
Minneapolis and a report that all mills in
that rlty would shut down for ten days.
Iuiing the Inst hour a cablegram was
received from an English statistician pre
dicting a marked decrease In wheat ship
ments from Argentina. This was the first
encouragement of tho day for the bulls
and treated a moderate amount of covering
by shorts. The result was a recovery of
part of the early loss. The close, however,
was weak. May opened 4Ua to VHWe
lowr at So to Sic. sold off to 87t'ieS7:c
and closed at fr(i.T'iiC . Clearances of
wheat and flout were equal to 245.000 bu.
I'rlmary receipts were 8tVXi0 bu., compared
with 927.00" a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 664 cars,
against 556 last week and 56 a year ago.
Iiesplte the weakness of wheat a Arm
tone existed In the corn market. Shorts
were active buyers, the wet weather
throughout tho middle weft arousing their
fear of the poslble "corner" in the De
cember option. The small amount of locul
stock Increased their anxiety. The market
olueed firm, with prices at the highest
point of the day. May opened unchanged
to Ve higher at 44Vn44' sold up lo 44V'
and closed at the top. Icl receipts were
86 cars, with 12 of contrnct grade.
Government figures showing the oats crop
tn be latrer by l4.uuo,00o bu. than was gen
erally expected caused some liquidation
early In the session, but the market soon
recovered. During the remainder of the
riav prices held steady. May opened un
changed to a shade lower at 81V' 31V"'
8'.V. sold between Slc and 3:'c and closed
nt SIVtt.'ilo. Ineiil receipts were 152 cars
A decline of 10c In the. price of live hogs
weakened the provisions market early In
the dav. Packers sold moderately at the
opening, but outside buying was strongly
In evidence later. At the close May pork
was up 7'v at llSXiW. lard was up 7V' at
J? 424 end ribs were 2Voo higher ut I..2J',
417 25
Estimated receipts for tontorrow: Wheat,
V3 cars; corn, Sol cars; oats. 231 cars; hogs,
xn.rm heart.

NEW YORK, Dee. 21. -Money conditions
guided today s stock market into narrow
and sluggish channels, operations were
relatively small and less significant than
for some days past, being largely of a pro
fessional character. The rate for call money
advanced to almost the highest level of
the week during the early session, the re
sult of s sudden calling of loans by local
financial institutions. 'I ne hanks, while ap
parently ahead in their weekly operations
with the subtreasury. are known to have
transferred about 34,,oun by direct ship
ment to Chicago, where cash has been In
urgent need to meet the situation created
by the failure of the Walsh banks and
Trust company. The sum mentioned, to
gether with the shipment through the sub
treasury to the same center, threatens an
other impairment of the legal reserves of
the associated banks. Monetary conditions
abroad were hardiy muro encouraging than
at home. The Bank of England a weekly
statement showed a decrease of almost
Slo.OW.'Mi In gold reserves, thereby reducing
Its proportion of reserves and liabilities to
level much below the corresponding ween
of the previous year. A number or short
t accounts In Americans were closed In Lon
don and operations here for that market
were small In volume, sales of balance
amounting to scarcely more than l.i)
snares. Intimations of a much higher
money rate during the final week of the
year were given out In responsible quar
ter. i ne local market was firm and active at
the outset and some of the previous days'
losses were soon recovered. The greater

CATTLE Tho cuttle receipts this morn
ing were light, seventy cars being in. Tho
run for the first four days this week has
been very light, about 16,u68 held being re
ceived, as against 24.974 head foe the same
time last week. However, the ivi for tha
J first four days of tills week is larger than
for the corresponding period last year bv
about 5.300 head. The offerings today were
generally of rather poor quality, ine larger
portion consisting of short-fed and warmed
up cattle.
The trading on beef xteers opened active,
with prices on rood, desirable beeves
are ateady to a trifle stronger In some few
cases. Generally speaking, however, tha
market opened fully steady. So long as
there were any good, desirable killing
ateera on tha market prices wure steady
and trading active. The small supply of
good kinds soon gave out.' though, and then
it became slow and weak, as packers were
unwilling lo take the warmed-up and
. Mh0rt-fed cuttle except at a sacrifice
and
they did not ap!ear to want
they did not apiear to want them much
even then. To sum tlie situation up in a
few words the market opened ucilve and
fully steady, closing slow and weak.
The situation on cows and heifers was
practically the seme as with the beef
steers. Th quality was generally only
common, with a good many warmed-up
cattle In. The market opened active and
steady to strong, but when the desirable
Huff had been cleaned out prices dropped
and trading was rather slow at snmewha'.
easier prices. Generally speaking, tlie mar
ket opened active and steady to strong,
cloning slow and weak.
There was only a small supply of stock
ers and feeders on ti.e market this morn
ing. Trading was active and prices were
generally ateady to strong. The market
on this kind of stock close.l

Hi NiS There mas
hoes on the market
nother liberal run of
this morning. 15 cars
about ll.ian head being rejiorted In. The
receipts of hogs for the Hrst four days
of this week total 41.793 head, the largest
since the third week In July, when 49.S92
bend were received The receipts for the
day were pnu tlcally the same as last
Thursday and Is smaller than the run for
the same date last .year by about 2,309
hold. The market opened this morning
with buvers bidding about a nickel lower,
thinking that with the liberal run at this
point and the large receipts and &c lower
I opening at Chicago they would be able lo
J cut prices. There was practically nothing
done at these prices, but a little later, at
I drop of about 34c. there was a little
. trading done After a bit things firmed up
and the market became brisk and active
at practically steady prices. Heavy hogs
ag,in were given the preference. The bulk
of the ait 11 IT brought In the neighborhood of
I.K74tit 90. The top load sold at 4 tien

SHEEP Ther was another rather light
run of sheep today, only seventeen cars,
about 4, 6ii heail, being reported In. The
receipts all during, the week have been
unite light, only about 16,600 head being re
ceived. This is (he lightest run for tha
tlrst four days of nny week since the uec
ond week in August, when only 13.167 head
were marketed. Some of the trains were
luie in getting in, so that the sheep came
1 snuggling into the barns all during the
3 I morning. The quality of the offerings was
1 only fair. The stock wus sold as uon us
1 I It wus plnced In shape to be shown excepl
1 Ing the short-fed stock, which was very
1 ; slow. It tie I tin a comparatively hard matter
1 lo tlnd anybody that wanted lo accept it.
1 I The market on good desirable fat shep
1 j and lambs was In a good, healthy condl
l ' lion, a has been the case all this week. As
lithe stuff was coming In all dining the
morning, It Is hardly xisslble to call the
trading active. All desirable sheep and
lambs were picked up, however, aa aoon aa
they we rr oflertd. The market today la In
practically the same notches as at the close
of last week. The receipts have been light
all week, but the offerings as a rule have
not been of extra good quality, nnd these
tu-o fui.tw linVM IpndMrl to IwiM orlceH shout
steady. There has been some good stuff!
offered for sale, and 'his has always sold
readily at good, strong prices.
There were only a few loads of feeder
sheep and lambs on the market today. The
demand was fairly good and trading was
active at practically steady prices. Feeder
sheep are also steady for the week.
