Wall street weakness oauned depression here today In the wheat market. The close wan heavy, at the lowest point of the session, VWic under last night's figures. In corn the finish was mli'ic to V' he up: oats, 'Mi V4C lower to hxc higher, and provisions varying from bo gain to Hri 12!tc decline. Conditions in the stock market led to utH'xpecttd setbacks In wheat when other news was ctrong and large shorts were covering. The argument was that the downward course of securities affected business In other directions, and that It was no time to bull anything, simultane ously, reports were current that the water situation for Minneapolis Hour mills was serious. Selling, due to New York an$ Minneapolis reports, was accelerated by denials that the outlook for Oklahoma wheat was as bullish as had been repre sented. Earlier In the day an authorita tive estimate had been received ralsinar the Argentine export surplus to 112.000,000 bushels. The day's range for May was from to tlc, with the close off at the lower level. Corn fell back somewhat from an ad vance due to scarcity of sales from the country. May fluctuated between 47V(f 47,0 and . 4K1i,'u4S4c, closing easy at 47tc, a net gain of c. Cash corn was firm. No. 2 yellow finished at BiMVic, and the new crop at fiOHc. Notwithstanding active buying of oats the market finally yielded under sales by some of the largest houses. May ranged from 34'Ac tq. 347o and closed Ho ud at IMS'ii 34N.C. Selling, attributed to packers, forced pro visions to share in the general late reae ' tion. Pork closed Wfil2MiC off to Be up, lard was down 3Hc to 7V4'9l0c, and ribs unchanged to fie decline.

PESSIMISM RULES THE MARKET Conditions Are Not Calculated t la. spire Confidence and Recent F.f fort by Halls Are Proven 1 seless. NEW TORIC. Dec. i-The reactionary movement with which the week In the stock market began was continued today, material losses being registered throughout the list. Sentiment has apparently taken a very pessimistic turn and evidence was forthcoming to account for Uie set-back. In various lines of trade, more particu larly the steel Industry, conditions are not calculated to inspire confidence and the ease with which prices have rrumbleTl offers strong proof that recent efforts to create bullish sentiment have leen abortive. Rumors were current, too, today that the pool which is commonly supposed to have engineered the recent upward movement had dissolved, leaving a large part of its holdings, estimated into the hundreds of thousands of shares, unsold. The comptroller of the currency sub mitted another batch of statements of con dition of national banks of November 10 last. Not a few of these institutions re ported a further expansion of loan ar.J discounts Instead of the hoped-for con traction. Reoovery was made In the stock market during the final hour and soma fractional gains were shown, but this was due In a measure to short covering. I-omlon's operations here were moderately extensive for both accounts, the balance probably representing purchases of about 10,000 shares. European markets were firm. The Im perial Hank of Germany reported a cash, loss of more than $17,5ft),ono, a loan Increase of fx. 500.000 and a loss In gold of almost $U,0u0,0no. The bond market waa heavy.

It was in fact about as near no market at all' as could Well be Imagined. Salesmen were describ ing it as a rotten market. The trad has been In a good condition 11 the week until toward the close yes terday, when It became apnprent that something had happened to chango buy ers' vlewa This morning It wns very ap parent that the trnuhle lay In the fact that buyer were filled up on both shoep and lamhs, while, to make the situation still worse, there weje advice from Ruf falo indicating that the top on choice lamb there yesterday waa only $6 25, and that the general situation in the east was decidedly discouraging. The result was that packers at this point did not appear to want the stuff on sale and the faint ef forts they made to buy could hardly be called a market. Their bids were around H60o lower than Wednesday, lambs show ing the moat break, tin a good deal of the stuff they did not even make a bid and, as noted above. It was the next thing to no market at all. At midday a good share of the receipt still remained In th yards unsold. It might be noted In this connection that while the receipt this week have been small compared to most recent weeks, they have been larger th.tn for the same week a year ago by almost 20.000 head. More than that, the arrivals have consisted al most entirely of killers, there being very few feeders Included in the runs. Thus It Is safe to say that the actual number of killers on sal has been larger than was the case a few weeks ago, when receipts were more than double what they are now. Under present conditions, the only thing that shipper can do is to hold off ship ping for a time until the market can have a channe to clear Itself.

Now and then one of the old standard properties, so a theatrical person might call them,' of the universe crumple up and has to be kicked off to one side. Last, It waa Halley's comet; now it I th Bar gasio sea. An Inquiring expedition of Norwegians, sent out by their government' bureau of fisheries, have been prying Into the nooks and corner of the ocean where the Sargasso sea ought to be. They have . recently returned and reported that thy did not find the Sargasso sea at horn. There are some thlnga that well-brought-up Uttle boy when they get on in Ufa retain their belief In even mora than they do In what they learned in Sunday school. Here and there a point In history, gram mar, or, a In this case, geography. To hear that the Sargasso ea 1 no more will be a great shock to thousand of th well-brought-up little boy of a few year ago. They were firmly convinced, up to tha very last, that It wa a place whera tha rank weeds floated In long accumulated masses, almost as thick as hay up In th old mow; her and there might be 'seen a derelict hulk, for Into this slough of th ocean all thing drifted; and If a what were raah enough to eat lu way far Into tha me, that rash whal would very likely perish, unable to make It way out again through the flotsam. The Norwegian did find floating sea weed, although they missed the congress of derelict and the fettered whale. Th weed was a trifle more plenty, perhap. than In ocean localities where tha current I brisker. But a cruise through a whole gridiron of latitudes and longitudes failed to disclose anything worth going down there for In the way of tha ploturesqu. In the end the Investigator concluded that the weed usually sank a few month after ending Its term of life, and so kept the surface fairly clear of litter. The faithful, who refus to glv up thlr beliefs, will have to transfer their Sar gahso to the floor of the ocean. It 1 doubt ful Jut what become of the seaweed that ink, and perhap It may form fancy gar den at great depth. Deep-sea sounding should olve th point aouner or later. But it 1 time rather that th men of science gave us a new wonder, In return for tho that have, like the Sargossa, recently been taken aay. New York Sun. CIRCUIT COURT AT MITCHELL!
