Tho wheat market was strong all day although sentiment In the pit wus a little It- bullish toward the finish, owing to Vet nMderahle realizing by local holders. The chief stimulus to buying at the start was the extremely srntull receipt in the north vest. Minneapolis and Ouluth reported only 149 curs, against &u0 cars the corres ponding day a year ago.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The stock market todsy fell Into a neglect so profound as to resemble stagnation. Tho professional traders on the floor of the stock exchange apparently had the market to themselves and their efforts to move prices met with so nine suoccs that they practically abandoned them and left the market In Its dull and uninteresting state the latter part of the session. The technical position of the market wa called good In that tho floating supply of siuckb seamen to on small ana com paratively light, buying orders brought marked result .In the rrlce movement. This fact, however, seemed to offer small encouragement to the pursuit of any extensive operations. There were eicen- lltm In separate stocks, mostly of the class of smaller railroad systems. Conjecture continued busy with the possible disposition or inese systems in the proces of con eoiidatlnns Indicated by the cues of the Colorado Southern and the wnsconsln i entrai. The Kansas Cltv Southern was pointed to aa a projected link in the Harrl man system by traffic agreement. The ( ndpeakd ft Ohio was Indicated ss en gaged In consolidating its own system by rurcnase or a controlled link and wa favorably affected. The supposition, that F.. H. Harrlman is to assume closer rela tions to the New Tork Central continue strong In speculative quarters and that element looks for developments In that direction at tomorrow's meeting of di rectors. Some strengthening Influence of a more sentimental kind wns due to report of an Intended movement among the Insurance companies to secure a modification of the law calling for the sale of stockholdings in the tr)asiirles of these companies within a stated period. This possible liquidation has hung over the market for two years past with depressing effect on a number of railroad stocks. One Influence of repression on the speculation especially in foreign markets 1s the attitude of walling on the Russian loan Issue In Paris on Friday. The pressure for gold at Paris relaxed slightly today and 'sterling exchange advanced stiarnlv there with, a corresponding re laxation In the private discount rate n London. There was a small engMre'merft of gold hero for shipment 'o South America, but none of for transaltantto points. Thai 1 fonoon win draw some gold tn rna next few weeks Is a. general expectation. A steiflvlmr effect on the local money market Is beannnlng to be armarent but the h.gh premium tit which New Tork exchnnire rules nt Chicago Indicates the rendy reppone of the Interior to n-n opening In New York for placing fuffd. Chicago banks are reported to be seeking bonds as sn alternative to the sllcrht opporf unities In the loan market. Successive Issue of oomorxtlon honds try hankers make tho distinctive fnet'jre of the prrent situation.

WOOL There was a large attendance at th opening of tha 1909 wool auction sales here today. A good selection of 10,483 bale brought out active bidding especially from home traders, who wanted crossbred, and continental buyers, who took merino. The American present bought croasbreds, but hnslttUed when merino were offered. Merinos and fine crosHbreds were unchanged to 6 per cent J higher and medium and coarse crosshrctls advanced from 6 to 7Vi per cent. Cape of Gtod Hope and Natal grades were un changed.

Tf.lal 4.969 10.M9 7,122 CATTLE Receipts were rather smaller than dealers were anticipating, and Uie. proportion of well-finished cattle waa larger than it has been of late. The market was very alow In opening. Both local packers aud outside buyer showed a marked preference for the light 11 nd cheap cattle, buying these at Steady u strong price. On the other hand they were all more or less Indifferent and bear ish on the well finished and heavy cattle and bids were mostly VWl&c lower than yesterday, a very small number changing hands at, theae figures up until noon. There was a good Inquiry from all source foi the desirable grade of butcher and beef stock and price were unevenly higher all along the line. Keen competi tion from outside butchers made price considerably higher for the heavy and fat grade and in many cases aa much aa 164, 26o higher than lat week. On the other havnd medium and common stuff found no better outlet than Inst week and price for the most part were In about the same notches as at that time. There wa a very good demand for stockers and feeders, but the supply wa limited. Competition with packets for the fleahv trades made prices decidedly strong. while the lighter grades did not show so much Improvement, but generally sold freelv at steady prices.
