Suggestions that the wheat market was nearlug an export basis hud not a little to do with the fact that tinul prices today were unchanged to only Vac down. The hopeful attitude, however, an not taken until after a period of ex treme depression during which short selling whs overdono and much liquidation took place on stop-loss orders, t orn made a net gHln of Vit Vsc to He, and oats of t to Wr',f,c. The finish in provisions ranged from jc loss to Vnc advance. Ocean freight engagements for 500,000 bushels of Manitoba wheat were reported and a spe cih! shipment of Kansas wheat to Central America. The world's available supply showed no Increase except In the I'm ted States and Canada, primary receipts In this country were less than half those of a yean ago and supplies In and afloat for Europe exhibited an actual falling off. Karly In the day, however, attention was largely occupied by dispatches telling of continued rains In Argentina. Later re port'i were that the rain was light. By this time the selling flurry had exhausted Itself and there was a rapid reaction. De cember during the day varied, from 92(t$ 2c to M!iC and elosed firm at WfcWc, a net Ion of a shade. In the corn pit offerings were absorbed by the larger shorts and by new Investors. December fluctuated between 4fcSi(y 4ic. closing firm at the last named price, a rise of V'lWc over last night. The cash market was. weak early, but strengthened later on. No. 2 yellow closed at 47'k4j4X'ii. Buying of oats was largely for big shorts. December went as low as Q, but ran up to SOc, cloning at 30c, a net advance of VftVic Holders of provisions Indulged In Profit taking. In the end pork was unchanged to 7Vic off, lard, 2Vso lower to Tfta up, and libs at a nickel loan to 2o up. The leading futures ranged as follows: Attlcles.l Open. High. Low. Close. Yes'y.

There is nothing In tne published bank ing returns to Indicate how tar New iork borrowers have been resorting to London in financing the present speculative move' metit in stocks. The three bank ktatemetits published since the opening ot October show an actual contraction of loans by the clearing house banks In the sum of $41,7oti, StM. The expansion of loans of the trust companies and other banks in the same time amounts to $44,344,7oU, Indicating little more than a shifting of existing credits from one quarter to another of the New lork money market. Whether, on account of a changed attitude on the part of the foreign money lenders or from other causes, the measures for advancing prices of stocks were less aggressive today.

The supply was quite lib eral jf. considerable proportion of all the cattle received being or that class, still the buying demand was good. There were fewer feeders and stock: cat tle In sight this morning than for some time back, und as the country Inquiry both yesterday and todty was very fair and the market took on a good heailhy condition, and the prices were generally steady on ull kinds.

In dusting anything execept a seasonable let-up In receipts. Right around uo.ono head were posted this morning, but early trade was naturally quiet owing to di-lav due to sorting, etc. Yesterday's big run rlenred well, how ever, even thoush demand was rather backward throughout. Feeding lambs were In heavy supply, and. as a rule, had to sell lower. Best fleshy grades sold tip as high as $5.65 and made-tn-order bunches aro not quotable over fr,.7.i at most. In between classes, while ranging from $4 00 to $i.0O, are decidedly uneven, animals al most Identical In quality and weight mov Ing at prices as much as 60c apart. Good breeding ewes are still In active demand and show little If any weakness. Feeding ewes of good quality are wanted, as well, $2.5ti 3.00 buying the right kind, the same ns last week. Feeding wethers around $3.5osi 3 65 average up Just about steady with last week's close. Fat sheep trade Is in very healthy con dition. Sorts are light, and with demand active. It takes steady to strong prices to buy the bulk. Wethers sold up as high as $4.25 yesierday. Unibs, on the othe: hand, are not selling as readily as last week and valuea sre shaded a trifle. Strictly choice quality might possibly reach $6.75. but most of the good kinds are moving around $6.50. Today's market, while late In getting started, showed little change, either In feeder or killer prices. Country buyers were in very fair attendance and pros pects for a good clearance were promising.
