Features of the Trading; and Closing:
Prices on Board of Trade.
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. The mar
ket closed strong, with prices aa to
hither.
tirlHk demand for cash oats caused
strength in the market for that grain. At
the close prices were o to o above Satur
day t final figures.
Provisions were strong-and closed 10c to
30c 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.

CA 1 1 LB Receipts of cattle were quite
liberal this morning, that Is, the early
estimates were tor liberal , receipts, but
as a matter of fact, trains were so much
delayed by storms In the country tnat the
actual number 'of cattle on sale when the
market opened was extremely small, and
as .they began selling In quite goud sva
spn, there were at no time many cattle on
the market.
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. "

- HOGS Receipts of hogs this morning
were extremely light, only about fourteen
cars being In sight when the market opened
with about as many more reported back
This means that thire were at no one time
enouf.li hogs In sight to make a market or
Interest buyers bull conditions were such
that packers all wanted hugs and were
willing to pay more money for them, with
the result that the market opened fully 10c
higher than last week's close. 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.

SHEEP There was l.ttla change In the
sheep situation as compared with last Fri
day -either In the character of the offerings
or level of prices. The early estimate
called for 6,000 head, but several ahlpmenta
were late In arriving and trading was de
layed more er lesa on thia account- A good
totre featured buying demand, however,
and practically everything changed hands
in Just about the order of arrival at quot
ably steady figures. Much of the muHon
etuff received today was of an "in-ba-t.A-een"

SOUTH DAKOTASTATE FUNDS v
Almost Half AIIHIon General Fund
Warrants Are Out
standing. .. ,
PIERRE. S. 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. The capitol building fund, .showed
$19,27$ to off net the warrants, issued 'on
the fund to the amount of $114,231, V". - ' '
