The market for a'.l varieties of hides continues dull and deprcs&ed In ail sec tions of the country. Local dealers are making but little effort to operated in view of the lack of demand from tanners. They are hoping that something- will soon happen to clear the situation, but there is nothing favorable in sight. Eastern trade reports show less activity. if possible, than heretofore. Domestic country hides are weaker than ever, with practically no demand other than occa sional purchases from tanners who need a car or so to 'keep their tanneries In par tial operation, dealers are unable to effect business unless they are willing to accept such low rates as tp tempt buyers. As an instance of this, a sale was recently reported in Boston of 15,000 southwestern extremes at thelow price of 14c. Desir able section northern hides are Quotable at New York around 17c for extremes and 3 tic for buffs, on the basis of offerings made by holders, but most buyers who are willing to operate at all bid at least lc under these figures. Despite the verV extensive decline In calfskins, the market for these falls to show any resiliency, and late sales have been at still further reductions. Chicago cities have sold down to 2TJ4c, with bids for more at not over 23c, and later sales of Chicago cities were effected . at 25c. New York city green skins have again been reduced 2c, making the price for these to butchers 30c per pound for No. Is. At one time last fall. New York butchers were paid $1.20 per pound. The situation in all ktntrtj of leather continues to drag along In a dull and nominal way, with business very smail in volume, and prices unestabllshed and practically unquotable on all lines. Re ports in the shoe trade are to the effect that conditions prevailing with manufac turers of the finer grades of footwear are slightly improved, as some of the depart ment stores have placed a few orders. General trade in shoes, however, is flat, and it is the opinion in some well In formed tanning circles that the leather and shoe business wilt continue without sustained activity for the balance of the year. Shoe orders for spring are not ex pected before December or January, and some interests contend that unless the surplus stocks of low shoes are reduced considerably, a good many of these goods will be carried over into next year.

The Northwestern Miller says: "In spitej of universal reports of inactivity among buyers, the mills have steadily increased their output. Much flour moved Is on old orders. Buyers have been holding off feeling that the wide spread between cash wheat and December was an indication of lower prices to come."

The stock mar ket today lapsed into its recent reaction ary condition, professionals resuming their aggressive selling tactics in the further ab sence of bullish initiative and public sup port. Leaders were nominally higher at the outset and this advantage was extended during the first hour, but the list lost ground in the final hour, when call money rose from 7 to- 10 per cent and foreign exchange manifested renewed -heaviness. Statements attributed to banking inter ests and representatives of the federal re serve board, which offered little encour agement lor any immediate relaxation of credits, exerted an adverse influence. Rails provided the only manifestations of pool activity. Investment transporta tions were more or less Immune from the reversal of the later dealings, notably the Pacilics.

Offerings were light early, but increased materially on the bulge, and part of the upturn was lost. News on wheat has been rather bullish. There were reports .of 1,000,000 bushels being sold at the seaboard overnight. Corn was firm In sympathy with wheat, but toward the finish it became unsettled. Provisions were active and averaged slightly higher. The Chicago market letter received yes terday by Overbeck & Cooke company of Portland said: Wheat Short covering was mainly re sponsible for a sharp upturn in the De cember; a good deal of the buying was attributed to eastern traders, but their wants were readily supplied on the ad vance and the market reacted as soon as the buying ceased. While there were ex port sales around 1,000,000 bushels claimed for overnight, people in closest touch with the situation said, the demand was dis- I tinctly less active. Canadian grain is commencing to press for sale and at lower prices than American. Readjust ment will be on shortly In all markets as the result of the advance In freight rates. This will probably result in a lowering of premiums and hence cannot be con sidered as anything else than bearish.

Corn Efforts to advance prices are with out avail; so far this week December ha had a range of 3 cents, but today we find this delivery within one cent of the low point on the crop and this In the face of an advance of almost 14 cents from the Inside figures of Monday on December wheat. There are strong indications of larger receipts in the immediate future and country offerings are increasing for 30 days shipment at around 6 cents over September, compared with present spot prices of around 23 cents over for No. 2 yellow. Mixed is 5 cents under yellow on spot. The crop Is maturing rapidly. Feel that advantage should be taken on all the minor, upturns to make sales. Oats Rather dull, but market firmer. due more to lack of pressure than to any great buying. This market has been fol lowing corn for some time. Premiums on cash oats are expected to practically dis appear when grain shipped on new bill ings appears. This will probably permit of liberal deliveries on Setember contracts. Provisions Fairly active with an ad vance of 23 cents In hogs which caused some local shorts selling. Packers gave the best support to lard near the close.
