Com and oats were lirm and provisions atoady.

Price at the opening wera lY4tO to c higher, compared with tho previous cloae. Dur ing the first half hour, however, sentiment hncamo a trUls less bullish on selling baled . on the . wet weather In tho winter wheat belt, the official "weather map" indicating that heavy rain had fallen throughout the greater part of that section ..of live, country during the last fofty-elglit hour. Toward the middle of the day a decidedly weak tone develned a a result uf the showing of the visible supply state- ment, prices declining nearly lo below the high point of the day. 8tatlstlis regarding the available stocks of wheat In America were made public In a new form for the first time today, the visible aupply in Canada -being given sepa rately from that in the United States. Ac cording to this statement tho stock In this country Increased 3,848.000 bushels for the week, while those In Canada Increased 1. 185.00) bushels.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS Indecision Marks Speculative Senti ment in Stock Market. SWAYED BY POWERFUL HANDS Dall tad Kaay Interior Money Market Attrlbated to mall Desnaad for Comsaerrlal I se. NEW YORK, Nov. 30 Indication marked tne speculative sentiment in the stock mar ket today. The price movement was ex ttaordlnarlly maintained and the conflict ing movementa seemed to be so nearly balanced in their power to affect sentiment that neither was able to prevail. That the market wa being subjected to churn ing protea by powerful hjnda was the rairly obvious Inference from Its action. 1 he artificial character of such movement, the skill with whrch their real origin Is concealed and the entire uncertainty as to their ultimate purpose drives out the wary rrom attempting to follow and to snatch an advantage from the rapid fluctuations In prices. The most conspicuous of the opposed movements tocsy were those In St. Paul and In United State Steel. St. Paul showed aggressive strength at different times and the broker employed to do the buying of the tock gave the Impression of an ac cumulation by the most powerful of the financial group habituallv active Iti the speculation. On the other hand there was persistent selling of United States Bteel. some of the Individual transactions being In enormous volume. The shares with St. Paul In the upward tendency were, for the most part, amongst the Jess conspicuous low priced stocks. The usual market leaders. Including tiie Herrlman Pacifies, the Hill stocks Amil. gamted Copper. American Smelling and Reading wre Inclined to move In company with United State Steel. No fair Idea of the Incoherence of the dav' movement can be conveyed without this detail of the aottrce of individual stocks. The upward spnrts, et different times, in New York Central, fhesarxake and Oh irt iml the Krti-lf s'sland Issues had no explanation. i iii-y were Biiruiu'.eu ror t tie most part, to activity on the part of stock market pools in the stocks. The feature of the d.y In the wider financial ala-nifiiance was the evidence of the capital requirements opening before the marke's. The announce ment from the sale of SuO.OOO.ono of Ameri can Telephone and Telegraph convertible bonds to bickers seemed unexpected and waa of portentous effect on sentiment. This. was partly due to the announcement of a privilege to underwriter of the previ ous $100,000,000 Issue of these bonds to sub scribe in the present case at 92. although the bonds sold Saturday In the market as high as 95V Today they declined to 94 and the com pany share alao fell 2 points. While the original price of the underwriting of the first $100,000,000 of these bonds wa 94H the price to the syndics te was reduced to 91 In January of 1907. when the svndlcate took care of a note Issue of ja.OflO.OOO for the company. The dissolution of the syndicate which was accompanied by an Intimation that less than 10 per cent of the underwriting- had been disposed of. From this history of the previous bond transaction It wa inferred that the term offered to the former syndicate was for subscriptions for the new issue and designed a compensation for some former sacrifices. The effect of the announcement on the gen eral market, however, waa bad. The money market was unaffected bv this, or by the arrangements for the December settle ments. There waa some further advance in foreign exchange rates and gold exports to France continue under discussion. Interior money markets are dull and e.tsv and bankers attribute this ta small demand for commercial uses. Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value, $7.R38.000.
