miller Is getting much cheaper wheat than
he Is entitled to. and T think he promptly

stock was forced here on account of this

HICAGO fiRAM AND PROVISIONS
Featares of the Trading and Closing
Prices oa Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. Dec. 29. Higher prices for
wheat at Liverpool were reflected today In
a strong market here. The final quota
tions 011 May were up V(c. The corn
market was very erratic, the price of old
December fluctuating over a range ot 6c.
The rlose, however, was quite steady at
a gain of 4c over the final quotation of
yesterday. The May option was us 4e.
Oats showed a gain of 4"?(Sc, and provi
sions were 74c to 174c higher.
The wheat market was strong through
out the entire day. The firmness, how
ever, was more due to light offerings than
to anv great amount of buying, the volume
of trading on the whole being moderate.
Commission houses and some of the lead
ing shorts were the principal bidders. The
selling was chiefly by longs. The princi
pal bullish factor was an advance lit the
price of wheat at Liverpool. Another fac
tor waa a cablegram from Argentina say
ing that harvest operations were delayed
by wet weather. The market closed strong
with prices practically at the highest point
of the day. May opened 4 to 41t4c
higher at 874c to 874c. advanced to 7c
and closed at g7Hc Clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to 371.000 bushels. Ex
ports for the week as shown by Brad
street's were equal to D.448.000 bushels. Pri
mary receipts were 925.000 bushels, com
pared with 377. Ooo bushels one year ago.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts of 618 cars, against 7!) cars last
week and 220 cars one year ago.
Uvely bidding by shorts caused a sharp
bulge In the price of December corn early
In the day. The price of old December
was advanced from 60c. the opening quo
tation, to 64c with scarcely a trade re
corded between those figures. New De
cember meanwhile advanced from 46c to
47c. All of the advance, however, was soon
lost as a result of moderate profit-taking.
The price of old December dropped to 40,
while the new style sold off to 434c. Clos
ing quotations on old December were up
V 4c at 60e. New December was 4c lower
at 44-V&444C The May option was little
affected by tne erratic actions o uecrm
lir, but held firm throughout the day.
The opening was 4o to 4y4 higher at
444441c to 444c. The range was oetween
. 444c and 444c and the close firm at 4449
444c. Wet weather In the middle west
strengthened the market. Local receipts
were 412 cars, with S2 cars of contract
grde.
liuylng of the December option by shorts
waa the feature of the oats market. The
price of that delivery showed a net gain
lor the day of lc. Commission houses
were fair purchasers of May and that op
tion remained firm throughout the day.
Strength of wheat had a bullish Influence
on oats. May oiened a shade higher at
SIo. sold up to 324c and closed at the top.
Local receipts were 154 cars.
Provisions were strong because of an
active demand by shorts and local bulls.
The buying was due mainly to a CjlOo
advance In the price of live hogs. At the
clos.1 May pork was up 15a'17Ho at IIS 124
lrd ass up K at 17.4.4; ribs were 74Wc
lileher at 17.40.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
27 cars; corn. 472, cars; oats, ISO cars; hugs,
16.ti0 head. .... ,

General Belief that l-arae syndicate
Attempted to Corner Money In
Order to gqoeeie Oat
f ImLi.
NEW YORK, Dec. 29 For practical pur
poses today was the last day of the year
on the stock exchange. i here are no
loans or deliveries on Saturday, loans made
on Friday carrying over until the follow
ing Monday and the stocks purchased on
Friday are to lie paid lor on me toiiowing
Miinduy. As Monday Is the New Year s
hol.day, the settlement for today s trans
actions in the stock market will be de
ferred In eflect until the turn of the year.
This fact was made the basis for tne
speculative furore which pervaded the stock
market today from start to finish and car
ried dealings to the 2.0w.oi( share level.
It was argued that preparations for the
January first settlements must now tie
completed anil that the stress in the money
market must have done its worst. As a
matter of fact there was less severity In
the money stringency today than on the
two previous days. The rate was carried
up to 75 per cent during the urgent-demand
the first part of the day. but fell back
rather promptly to the neighborhood of
50 per cent. Compared with yesterday the
money market was regarded as easy, and
today's rates were cheerfully and even
eagerly paid.
There Is a conviction among the specu
lative contingent In the stock market that
a vast organization exists among the most
powerful capitalists In the country, which
Is largely responsible for the severe strin
gency in money of the last week In the
year. The operators in stocks of less Im
posing resources assert their belief that Hie
aforesaid powterf ul ca. aulists have ac
cumulated vast resources In their own
hands with the purpose of squeezing the
money market, forcing out stocks from
other hands and gathering them into their
own with the purpose of realizing the great
profits which are to accrue when the enor
mous waiting demand for stocks develops
with the latter relexatlon In the money
market, tt is with determination to defeat
this alleged plan that the active speculators
have cheerfully paid exorbitant money rates
rather than part with their stocks. The
belief In the substantial character of the
accumulation of stocks was fostered by
the prominence In the market of United
States Steel, Union Pacific and Amalga

tion of the speculative public that these
stocks are the fuvorltes for the purposes
of stock market operations of the most In

of any deposits of government funds with
the banks and denials were made of any
intention to take such aclioia The Infor

for lending In the stock market also was
denied. The preliminary estimates of the.
week's currency movement Indicated tt
small gain on balance from the interior.
In spite of the supposed shipments to Chi
cago and Memphis to relieve the strained
situation at those points. But the lialanco
of receipts In the interior was much too
small to offset the loss of S2,547,W by the
banks to the suhtreaaury.
There Is a general conviction also that
the loan account of the banks has freely
expanded during the week to meet the
year-end requirements. But the possibility
of a weak bank return received little at
tention, as It was assumed that with the

CATTLE There was another light run of
cattle on the market this morning, thirty
two cars about 800 head being reported In.
This Is considerably smaller than for tho
same day last week and the run for the
corresponding day last year was more than
four times as large. The run for the five
days of the week totals about 8.176 head, or
about 10.000 head smaller than for the same
time last week, and It Is also smaller than
for the first five days or the same week
last year.
There were only a few loads of beef
steers on the market today and the quality
of these was. generally speaking, rather
common. Trading was quite slow and
draggy, and although the receipts were
small. It was unite late before a clearance
was effected. Packers were still Indifferent
buyers, apparently not caring much
whether they bought the stuff offered for
sale or not. The most of the stock sold
for prices that were practically steady.
Trading on cows and heifers was In Just
about tho same condition as the beef
steers. The supply and tfje demand was
small ana traaing was siow ana untnterest-
Ing all during the day. Some of the stock
was lute In getting up to the yards, so that
the stuff came straggling In tn lots of one
or two loads all during the morning, mak
ing a rather draggy market. Packers evi
dently wanted only a very small supply of
cows and were not buying much. Gener-
1 any epeaaing,
prlces were nominally
1 Steady.
i There were only a
stockers and feeders on the market and
oln- reaauy ai prices inai were tuny
