CHICAGO.!' Dec, 6. Reborts of frost In Argentina caused a sharp advance In wheat prices here today, riual Quotations snowing net gains of lc to lc. Corn, oats and pro visions also scored substantial gains. The crop scare ' from' Argentina Injected a vast amount of bullish enthusiasm Into trading in the ' wheat, pit about the middle of the session, although the market -earlier in the day had displayed moderate, firm ness. The reports from the South Ameri can republic, however, were not or a satis factory character, falling as they did to state definitely the area affected by the allegation of the visitation. A large part of the crop has already been har vented in northern sections and other portions of it are now beyond the damage stage. A vast amount of it. it was claimed, Is still sub iect to serious Injury by cold weather, Earlier advicus front Argentina had told of a return of wet weather, which would delay harvesting, and this, together with firm cables, had inspired considerable covering by shorts during-the tirst Hour. The liber ality of world's shipments, the movement for the weok being about 3,000,000 bushels in excess of the figures for the correspond ing period a year ago, had a tendency to hold buyers in check early In the day. De mand for DecembOT and May waa about equally urgent during the last half of the session.' The former month ranged between 31.0t and 1.07, while May sold between Sl.Ob and SI. 07. The market closed strong at almost the top, December being at $1.0714 and May at ll.fiS. The corn market displayed remarkable strength considering the material drop in temperature over the corn belt.

MARKET IRREGULAR ALL DAY American Ivttr Is l.orrer and Read ing; 'and It cm-It Island Higher Money Kates I nrhanged Bonds Are Higher. NEW .YORK, Dec. 6. Hesitation and con straint made themselves felt In the slock speculation again today, following tne volatile movement of Saturday. Tnat the ppt-arano! of thincs hs decide-liy confused was taken for granlrd, and tho abundant resources that were displayed in the work of forming this appearance made the smaller following of ImblluaJ traders very wary In extending their op--rH lions. ' Tho dullness Into which the market fell from time to time was due partly to large reduction of the outstanding short Interest by the covering operath ns responsible for the buoyant rise in prices Saturday. Tne actual assembling of congress, althounh the day s session was perfunctory, had it usual restraining effect on the speculative xpirlt. it was understood at the oui.-et that the president s message wouia not be presented, and the stock market be lieved itwlf to be accutately Informed on the contents of that document. The sooth ing effect of that supposed knowledge was somewhat Impaired by an Intimation that it was to be followed at an early dat by other special meftnaKes, devoted more exclusively to the topics In which the stock market takes a particular Interest. Atii.ther sudden drop in American Sugar showing lack of support fur that st.ick, was regarded as suggestive and helped to prompt a selling movement of wider scope. At the same time there was aggressive demand for other particular stocks which had a neutralizing effect and kept the market irregular and unsettled. There was occasional demand for iltading. with in sistent assertions that a dividend increase was near at hand. Sabs r.r K'k island preferred at 90 made a new record fir tnat stock, due to reiterated reports that it would soon go on a o per cent dividend basis. ThA ouestion or waire readjustments amongst railroad employes was discussed, but without greatly amtuiDing eireci. n is assumed that railroad managers stand ready to make concessions to demands for increased wagos, such as elve the hone of compromise, without greatly interfering with trartic. i he nign cupi oi uvinn is given as indication of a likelihood tnat higher wages may be conceded, although It Is pointed out that reductions were not made in the late period ot depression, in the present Instance, there Is an obvious hope that higher wages and higher freight rates may come hand In hand. Money rates were not changed, out money brokers reported some time loans on special collateral at rates from 6 per cent to 6 per cent. Ronds were firm. Total sales, par vaiue. $4,942,000.

All kinds of killing cattle, both beef steers and cow stuff, started out with a very strong feeling prevalent and with prices generally fully lOo higher. The quality of the beef steers, however, waa not i very good, so that prices as a rule did Riot make too good a showing on paper. With feeders the opening market was not so favorable, as very few country buyers were In and speculators did not appear dis posed to- load up with any -great number el wattle until they had a better idea of the probable week's demand. In conse quence, the early market on feeders was not very active and no more lhau steady at the best.

Although most 01 uie noga among tne eariy receipts at least were lacking in weight still the most of the hogs sold at A.10u.lo, as against 18.uo-u8.0C for the bulk on Saturday. The hogs kept coming in a oar or two at a time until a total of over twenty cars had been received and soid. The later ar rivals sold on about the same basis as the early, the market as a whole being fully 10c higher and In some cases possibly more than that on the better grades, but hardly as much on the commoner light grades. Among the late arrivals was a car of good heavy South Dakota hogs that sold at $8.28, the high price of the day and the hlgliaet of any day slnoe September, when $8.80 Has paid, that pries having, been the highest of the year.

D., Dec. 6 (Speclal.)-Tha statement of the financial condition of the state on December 1, shows general fund warrants outstanding to the amount of $417,490, revenue warrants of. $50,000, bor rowed from twine plant fund $13,500, making a total outstanding Indebtedness of $1,052, 496, outside of the warrants issued on the capitol building fund, these amounting to $114,221, or a grand total of $1,161,041 This amount will be lowered approximately 1226, 000 by a call for warrants in January, using the collections from the December call for taxes for that purpose, -After that ' there will not likely, be a call of iny amount before July, as the receipts from the March call will be needed to take up the $500,000 of revenue' warrants due April 1. This will allow an accumulation of In debtedness of about $1,125,000 up to July, with the demands upon the treasury run-, nlng as they are at present. The Interest on at least $500,000 can be kept at, a low rate through a new is(Ue of revenue war rants which will no doubt be placed upon tho market for the purpose of taking up outstanding warrants. Tho recolpts for the next year on a levy of 4 mills should meet all running expen?es, and with feea reduce the debt slightly, but'the chances are that it will be close to the $1,000,000 mark when the next legislature meets. The report of condition of the state treas ury for December 1 shows av total on hand of $347,566 In all funds. Of this but $6,074 waa in the general, fund, $116,430 .'waa In the common school income fund, and will be drawn out of . the . treasury thia month for the December, distribution of that fund. The twine plant' fund Wa $103, 45$ and the game fund showed $9,633 00 that data.
