CHICAGO. Dec IS. Weakness of coarse
grain bad a depressing effect on the wheat
market today, but buying by shorts caused
a steady tone at the close. Final quotations
were unchanged to e lower as compared
wiia tne previous close. Corn and oats
ii ed weak, and provisions steady.
The wheat market opened weak, with
prices H&Hc. to NG?c lower than yester
day a f.nai rigure. and continued weak
the greater part of the day. There was a
fair rally, however, late In the day, owing
to active b-jyirg by shorts, based mainly i
en a prediction that Uae world s sntpmenis
of wheat for the week will show a l.b-ral
oecrease. As a result cf this demand the
market closed at almost the best prices of
the day. with May at n.r9i. and July
at Te7V Seii.r.g throughout the day
was inspired principally by a further d
elina in the price of corn and oats, but
weakness of the wheat market at Liverpool i
, and the report of a St. Louis trada toamal
regarding the fall-sown crop of whral In!
tr.ia country also had considerable tr.faenoe
Aorording to the bu Louis Journal, late
sown wheat has bees greatly benefited by
recent rains, but the early-sown crop has
been Injured by Heaslan flies. There was
no demand for cash wheat here and ex
port business also was at a standstill. Clear
ances of wheal and flour were equal tj
bu. Exports f jr the week, as shown
by Bradstreet s were equal t I 4i.. bu.
The corn market was weak again today
and prices were at the lowest marks regis
tered since last July. Cash corn was ? to
le lower, with few offerings and slack de
mand. A slow export demand was a bar
lsa factor. The market closed wjth prices
V to Vc below the previous close. Final
dotations on May were at 4V.Ac and on
July at fc'Sc. ...
Cash Interests were free seJers cf oats
nearly ail day. which caused a weak mar
ket. Cash, oats were weak and Vc lower.
The market dosed weak at a nt dec Una
of V la 5eC with May at ale and July at
41-Sc

NEW TORK. Dec. lA-There was further
weakness in stocks today, but (ne- market
was not so entirely without sjpport ss
was the case yesierdsy. Effons wre
plainly seen during the earlv part of the
day to arrest the decline. The resistance
shown by American lTe!tirg at W and
by United Elates Steel at U was an ex
ample. When the mli;ng stock began 15
reak to new low level the bears threw
off their timidity and renewed the attack
on the general ,ist.
The assumption Is widespread thai con
certed professional attack is responsible
for the decline in prices, and the quick ral
lies from time to time. Indicatirg a harty
covering of shorts, is corroborative of this
view. Much attention was dc-voted to
American Smeltrr.g and to the published
reports of a project to buiid rival sroelt-rs
through the country and crrar.iie a ft-
mdaLje COS'.rtit.ir tn the nrwnt Atrr.i
cant Interest. Tre cond'tion in the cop- Albany .
per market was respons-ble for the sharp Richmond
decline in Ami ram a ted Copper, and re- I Washington. D.
pons of a combmauon in r rrce cf for- i Frvkine
mauon to control the marketing of copper falt Lake City
o:u not OTiset tne knowledge that pro
duction was far in advance of consumpii-Tn
in tnai maurtry. Tr.e laryr Inferences
drawn from threatened smelting compe
tition al.o hurt the market. The hostile
array of greet financial groups eras In
contrast with the hopes recently prevalent
In the firanrlal district cf harmony ia
all the great forces of wealth and co
operation. The patergr fare warfare
opened I'D by the Wabnh over business
between Pittsburg and Chirajrii had sorpe
tblr.g the same efft with ":ncr--ed In
fTuerre on account cf the suppos tion tvat
E. 1L Harr'.maa was a new power in Wa
oash affairs
A more radiant explanation of the pres
sure of llqi?"iation In the nock market
was found In the outlraok for to-norrows
rar.k statemert. The rise in mnev rates
caring te wek seems t9 have attracted
"m runes irom other pom's, the gain
e? the local barks on the baince of the
Interior movement v g sharp'.v over last
wek to over C.W.O'd. A roe-rer off
set the stibtreasury abstorption of J14 -O".
As the f g-jre cf the surplus rvserv
stood at tinder f IT last &aturdav the
dlwapperanc of t-e surplus would V in
dicated without allowance for changes in
the loan Item. Important f narcial ope-a-tlons
during the week have mad con-t-nued
reouiremer.ts on bank.ne cred ts.
The easier tone of call loans yesterday and
today, however, prove 'he conservation of
a rrurrii of surplus reserves.. Th s easier
rate for money was accomplished today
by a recovery In fore'm rates snd bv a
rinlTit break of ? centimes In the sttri'r.g
exchange rate at Parts. Discounts also
hardened In Pars and in London and
gold was marked up in London t.tday.
The likelihood cf a res-jmption of gold ex

trig were light, as usual on a Friday, ana
there were really not enough of any one
kind tn eight to make very much of a
test of the market. StiU desirable kinds
-!d at about steady prices as compared
with yesterday, there being no very note
worthy change in any direction.
The market this week has experienced
some cjviite sharp cr.angea Good range
cattle tave be-n fully steady and have
e.n free aellera everv tiav of the week-
Cm the other hand c-o rr. fed eteers have been
slow and weak and are around 2c lower
tnan last week. The best cows and heifers
have not ahown very much change and
some are Quoting them as steady, but
the medium to pretty fair kinds have de
clined fully &4J4JC and some salesmen are
quoting It even worse than that- Good
feeders have sold very freely througaout
the week at strong prices. In fact all
kinds cf feeders have been at least steady
snd have sold mere freely than usual,
owing to a large attendance of country
buvers. many visitors to the Corn exposi
tion taking advantage of their presence tn
the city ta pick up a few stock or feeding:

Representative ies:
SHEEP There were only four cars of
lambs in the yards this morning and they
sold to a feedrr buyer at ncu ii, w.Mcb
locked like steady pncea la other words,
there was rea.ly notning here to mak a
market and there was very little that couid
be said regarding the trade In addition to
what has already been said durihg the last
day or two.
bhippers will do well to understand that
rece-pts at all market points have been
far too heavy for the week preceding
Ccnr.maa, when the demand for mutton
Is never very urgent. Under the influ
ence of the excessive receipts and the
moderate demand tnere ha- been a very
sharp break In prices at ait py.n'.a. The
market here ha suffered severely from the
same cause as other markets and lambs
are now safely TV lower than last
week, with saeep generally X.jVc lower.
The only thing for shippers to do Is to
bold back supplies udU the market Is
given an opportunity to recover iise.f.

retail movement of seasonab.e merchsnd se.
Wfi..laie ar.d Jobbing houses she dMr.g
about tne cuttoinary amount of busineM
for this time of year. Forward spur.g
contracts have been moat encouraging,
many mill snd factorh-s having good
orders fwr shipmenfi during the next three
months, and there is still rn rc or less la.s
machinery in the leading Industries.
Mercantile collection axe prvmpt tor trio
season and trade shows a tendency to Im
