The general enthusiasm In whut re

due to sentiment rather than fact.
Ths ibunduu.- of wheat in thla country
does not warrant anf marked advance for
tha balance of thla crop year without a
decided Improvement In tha European da

The ran market weakened also on ad
vice from Argentine to tha effect that rain

appointing cables asl thla eased the mar

and values will likely sag until tha demand
Improve!. Caah aalea were reported e

There waa very little doing In tha corn
market and valuea aaeed off alowly without
-much pressure. Receipts are light, owing to
joor traffic condition and the demand la
anything but good. Caah aalea were re

I'ralares of he Trading; and Closing
Prleea nil Hoard of Trade.
CHICAOO. Jan. 4. Pain on the drouth
stricken fields of India put a finishing
touch to anv hope for bull enthusiasm
toilav regarding wheat. Closing prices
were weak at o to Vitr'V.c net decline,
latest figures showed corn Vifac to
off; oats unchanged to HU'iic down, and
hog products varying from 6o loss to a
nlctr-l advance.
Wheat traden as a rule were not in
clined either to follow or fight the bull
leaders. Kplllng pressure at no time be
came pronounced, being checked by a hnw
of support from longs whenever weak
spots seemed dangerous. IJghtnens of re
ceipts aided as a sustaining Influence. All
day, however, prices suffered from dis
appointing cables. Depression Increased
owing to the absence of public orders, not
withstanding the recent vlgoroua upward
awing In quotations. Rallying power did
not seem to dlrappear entirely, though,
until news came near the end of the day
that India, Jiad ..received . a benrficlal
amount-f - motnturajk Final sales were at
Imust the bottom point of the season.
May fluctuated between 84o to ftS'dC,
with the close HftSc down at fMStfo.
I 'nsatisfaotory shipping demand weak
ened corn. May ranged from 4cto 49c..
and finished at 48wfUHTc. a net loss of
'uli'ic. Cash corn was easy. No. 2 yel
low closed at 45li4fcc.
Both business and valuea In oats kept
within extremely narrow limits. May sold
from 34i34c, and, in the, end was ViiQUc
off at 34'sc i '
Provisions see-sawed tinder selling by
packers and. buying on the part of ship
pers. The outcome left pork dc higher to
Ro off; lard unchanged to &e down and ribs
the same as twenty-four hours before.

NEW TORK. Jan. 4 A further advance
In prices was recorded on the stock ex
change today. The movement at the out
set was fairly, broad and Indicated that
the market waa recovering from Ita re
cent spell of depression, also that an Im
portant bull clique had tha situation well
in hand.
Transactions in Vnlted States Bteel
amounted to 137.000 shares or over 26 per
cent of the whole, and Tiext In order were
Reading and Cnlon Pacific. It Is generally
conceded that the welfare of the I'nlted
State Steel corporation Is not dependent
on tha personality of Ita titular head and
this, together with rumors of a good
showing for the fourth quarter of last year,
were primarily responsible for today's
movement In the iharea.
Realising for profits and a renewal of
bearish operation! together with an un
expected advance In call money to 6 per
oent during tha last hour resulted In a
general setback In the course of which
the greater part of tha day a advance!
were wiped out.
News from abroad was without bearing
on the home market. Transactions here
for London account were probably . lesi
than G.OiiO shares, mainly purchases of
Union Pacific and Amalgamated copper.
Numerous railroad reporta for November
were submitted. Including those of the
leading lines in the New York Central aya
tem, most of which were unfavorable.
Tha total for all lines for November shows
a loss In operating Inceme of $2.2X0.000. For
the year 1910 the total decrease In operat
ing Income by this system aggregates $6,
175.0O0. The bond market was unusually broad
and active with business the largest of
any In some weeks. Total sales, par value,
$3, 715.000. i
I'nlted Slates bonds wera unchanged on

CATTLE There was a fair run of cattle
today, 210 cars being reported In. This Is
the first good run of cattlo received at
this point so far this week and the largest
of any day since December 13. While thera
was quits a large sprinkling of western
feeders among the offerings, the big bulk
of the receipts consisted of corafed steers
and butcher stock. While the demand was
good, the difference of opinion between
buyers and sellers made the general mar
ket slow, so that It waa very late In the
day befora anything like a clearance was
effected. v
Blockers and feeders were the first cattle
to sell, buyers of that kind being out in
the yards very early In the morning and
they picked up ths offerings readily at
steady prices. As the market this week
has been very strong on that kind of
cattle, this means that the prices paid
were as high as any time of late. In fact,
unusually high for this season of the year.
The demand for beef steers waa very
good, packers all having orders, but sup
piles since the middle of last week have
been very light and prices have climbed
to a point that waa out of line aa com
pared with the way cattle are selling at
other points. As a result packers wanted
to take off something this morning when
it became apparent that the receipts were
quite liberal, but sellers were backward
about making concessions, with the result
that the trade was alow all the morning.
In the end the cattle sold at prices that
were weak to 10c lower than yesterday.
This was true of alt kinds of killers, steers,
rows and heifers.

HOC! 8 A good part of yesterday's ad
vance In hogs was lost this morning on a
market fairly well supplied with material.
This phsse ot th trade, added to the fact
that local prices have been holding at
very narrow spreads with those prevailing
at eastern points lately, produced most 01
the bearish reaction.
Early bids on a few selected loads were
right around a nickel lower as a rule. A
few loads sold on thin basis, but later sd-
vlces from other points warrsnted larger
reductions and ths trade grew stcadily
worse -as tne morning advanced. Closing
sales were right around 15c lower than
those of yesterday, some little business
being don at Intermediate declines.
Demand was backward from all quarters,
with lights and good butchers moving
more readily than the heavy and rough
packing grades. Late clearance was due
both to a dull demand and th fact that
delivery of a portion of the receipts wss
delayed until well along toward midday.
Shippers bought sparingly from start to
finish and afforded small support to aver
age trade.
Heavies moved around $7.80a'7.85, with
good medium weight and light mixed
around $7.96. Lights topped at $8.06, a nickel
less than yesterday's high price.
The market cloned at the low point of
the day, that Is, fully 15c lower than yes
terday, and In aoms cases possibly worse
than that.

PHEEP A fair Increase In today's re
ceipts of sheep and lambs over recent dally
runs gave packers a chance to shade prices
somewhat by way of readjustment with
eastern values. Declines were hardly large
enough to be quotable, however, and on a
few strings of, selected stock the trade
held up pretty close to steady. Taken as
a whole, the average market appeared to
be generally weak with movement as ac
tive as the receiving and yarding of late
shipments permitted.
Good sheep met with very fair competi
tion and sold early, ewes bringing $4.00 and
$3.75. Wethers on the strong weight order
commanded $4.00, but something choice of
tiandy weight would probably top at $4 15
or better. Nothing very choioe In the way
of yearlings arrived early and actual sales
In this branch of tha trade are not avail
able. Lamb trade ruled a little lower all along
the line, $6.00 buying very good quality and
finish. Extreme limit In quotations Is light
around $6.15. Feeders of western or corn
belt billing were very scarce and the price
list remained unchanged owing to lack of
material and slack demand.
