The close was steady. Ho off to M up, com pared with yesterday. Corn showed a gain of to to o net, and oats trtf to Nw-Tsc The close left hog products w'ftiln :.'V either way from last night's level. Far below aero weather In the north west had led to eorne rather anxious In quiry as to the condition of snow cov ering In the event that a spread of the cold should affect winter wheat. A. aum inary ot the replies made plain-the fart that the fields everywhere except In Ne. breaks, western Kansas, and northern .Michigan, were again bare of protection, There was an Immediate bracing up of pricea In consequence. Further strength developed aa a result of dispatches from Montreal announcing that the export demand had grown amss Ingly and about limited only by scarcity of ocean freight room. Between the open. in and the close May ranged from Wi,c to vKo, with the cloae 9rs, a gain of Sc over last night. Not a little nervousness tonh hold of the corn crowd.

In the fore Dart of the oay Keoaing, l-ehigh valley, ut. faut, l.nlon Pacific and united mates steel In particular showed the effects of pressure exerted by the bears In the expectation of continuing trade decline. The busi ness developed Increasing strength as the aey progressed. The stocks which showed pronounced strength were Issues which seldom take a prominent part la trading. Rock Island preferred roe t points and New York Central nearly as much. Interborough Metropolitan stocks and bonds developed strength. Mackay company was decidedly weak, although It recovered most of Its loss of 4hi points before the end of the day. Conditions In tba money market were of unusual Interest on this, the Isat loaning day of the year. There was no hint of the year-end flurry which Is often ex perienced. Call money did not rise above 4 per cent, as compered with 7 per cent on the last loaning day of 110. In Berlin, from 13 to 9 per cent wae paid. The week's known movement of money point to a cash gain by the local banks of flO.oiiO.OjO to I15.OOU.0U0; a condition almost unprecedented at this period of the year. The bond market waa Irregular. Wabaan 4s and local traction bonds were higher. Total sale, par value, $3,041.0uO. United States 4s coupon declined V on call.

The pricea paid rangea irom steady to a little easier, soma .of the same cattle that were here yesterday selling 6o lower today. Cows and heifers did not present any especially new or interesting features. Tha Drioea were steady or nearly steady In many cases, although the tendency, if anything, was a little easier.
