COMMERCIAL AND
The -wheat market continued rather
"wobbly" again yesterday, but aside from
this there -were but few features of inter
est in the trade situation. As usual on.
Monday, business was somewhat restrict
ed. although there were more liberal r
celpts of produce than are generally in
evidence on the first day of the week.
A carload of bananas came in from the
8outh, arriving- in good .shape and meet
ing with a fair demand. The market was
well cleaned up on poultry last week,
and the outlook for prices is much more
favorable during the coming week. The
egg market batr apparently paused in its
decline, -and Is resting easy at- SO cents,
although some dealers intimate that prices
might be shaded on round lots. Other
lines of produce remain steady at Quo
tations, r

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Urnin, Flour, Etc.
There was a decrease in the American
visible yesterday, bu as it still lingers
above 00,000.000 bushels, not much strength
could be extracted from that source.
"World's shipments were larger, and there
was an increase in the quantities on pass
age. In the local market there was not
much doing. Exporters were inclined to
reduce their bids, and some of them were
quoting 53 cents as an outside figure,
although others were still venturing 54
cents. Freights are fairly steady, but in
active, very little new business being
taken on so long- as the market is in
its present unsatisfactory shape.

SEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Results for the Day Showed More
Gafns Tlinn Losses.
NEW YORK, Dec 10. The effect of the
doubtful outlook in the money market was
clear today in the small volume of busi
ness in stocks. The money market showed
no sign of stringency, and no liquidation
was precipitated, la fact the buying
overbore the selling, and there are more
net gains than losses as a result of the
FINANCIAL NEWS
day's operations. The buying- seemed to
come from uncovered aborts. Judging
from the fact that thexe stocks, -which
.have- suffered most from, recent depres
sion, were in foremost demand today.
This was notably true of.th,e steel group,
led by Tennessee Coal, .and in which alt
the steeT stocks participated, except Steel
&. Wire, wElch was under pressure.'' The
stretch of sugar was attributed to reports
of an oversold condition in the trade. In
dicated in an advance,ln the selling price
of refined sugars bytthe independent re
fineries. The movement in the railroad list and
other industrials was duerto .the demand
from professional shqrts, 'but was much
narrower. The rate for call money was
advanced to 5 per cent, and ruled- from
that to C er cent. There was no sign
of stringency, and renewals were easily
effected, but all brokers Held stiffly for
the advanced rate The opinion was held
in Wall street that no relief was to "be
looked for by gold Imports, but the-decline
in foreign bills today aroused renewed
conjecture on that point, posted rates
for sterling being marked down a full
cent in the pound.
The bond .market was Irregular. Total
sales,par value, $S,COf000. United States

Chicago Grain and Prodace.
CHICAGO, Dec 10. Wheat was a mod
erately active market. Speculators were
swayed by conflicting emotions, and in
consequence prices cut a somewhat Ir
regular" path; May In which the best
trade now centers, opened c under Sat.
urday at 73Hc to 73c, and during the first
half hour declined to 724c The crowd
waB.in .a majority of cases, short, but
not worrying a bit, Although Liverpool
showed great steadiness in the face of
Saturday's slump here. World's ship
ments last week were 6,024,000 bushels,
about what had been expected. The
amount on passage decreased 296.D00 bush
els. The bearlshness, however, was due
largely to ,the expectation that the vis
ible would, show no particular decrease,
and possibly an increase, to liberal North
western receipts, and to the lack of out
side support, which has depressed, prices
here recently. Later In the day, when
it was shown that the visible had de
creased 6S5.000 bushels, the previous contU
dent shdrts began covering, and May was
bid up sharply to73?4c On the bulge,
longs sought to secure profits, but on lack
of outside support prices sagged, May
closing barely steady, 4c lower, at
73c.
Corn was moderately active and gener
ally weak, declining early and showing
but little tendency toward recovery. May
closed "4c lower at 36c. December closed
ic lower at 36Hc
The oats market "Was flat, furnishing
only a few scalping 'operations. May
closed He down at 2ic
Provisions were fairly active and strong
eany on light-hog receipts and an outside
demand for pork and ribs. This demand,
however, was soon satisfied, and prices
eased bff some,- but held part of the ad
vance, because of ilght offerings. Janu
ary pork closed 10c higher, lard 5c higher,
and ribs a shade up.

THE METAL MARKETS.
NEW YORK. Dec. 10. The market for

Lake copper was dull and unchanged.
Tin. though exhibiting a firm undertone,
ruled dull, and was nominally quoted at
the close at J27 H?2S, while the London
market reported a rise of 1 5s, closing
at 122, andflrm in tone. Spelter ruled
quiet and about steady at old prices, de

FEVERISH COTTOX MARKET.
Terrific Selling- Movement and Va
riation -orf Fifty Points In Prices.
NEW YORK. Dec 10. It has been
many months since fluctuations on the
New York Cotton Exchange have reached
50 points and since speculation has
equaled -that recorded today. From open
ing to closing, the session was one of
great Interest- The market opened peace
ably enough, with prices 3 points higher
to 5 points lower, easier in tone. A pause
for bearings, and then a drop of some 10
to 12 points occurred under room and out
side selling, precipitated by -surprisingly

large receipts and gloomy English mar
ket news.
Then came a sharp reaction, which car
ried prices up with a rush 1417 points on
fresh rumors that the bureau report was
out through a. leak, and was strongly
bullish., Tho close of the first hour saw
the market decidedly steady and a. shade
above Saturday's closing figures. For the
next half hour unimportant variations oc
curred, and business became quite slug
gish. A scamper for safer ground result,
ed is feverish trading and an erratic
movement In values, thbugh. at 12 o'clock
prices were nearly even with tho closing
of Saturday.
The bureau report came over the wire
promptly, and estimated the present crop
at 10,100,000 bales from an acreage of 25.-034,-734.
Terrific selling- set in, and amid
unprecedented excitement prices fell ver
tically 403C0 points, there being individual
declines of 520 points at a time before
the crash was over. Stop-loss orders add
ed to the confusion. The enormous profits
within easy reach tempted shorts to cov
er, and soon a rally was in progress,
which steadied the market 12JJ15 points.
For the rest of the day the market was
irregular and subject to -violent fluctua
tions and spasms of buying and selling.
At the close the market was steady, with
prices 273S points lower.
Production of Cotton.
WASHINGTON. Dec 10. The statisti

cbtton production of the United States
f6r 1900-1901. In making 'this estimate the
same methods apd agencies have been
used that were employed last year. Many
thousands of sinners have, however,
made reports for" the first time.

of the Bible.

sive element of the ministry is not. after
til, so revolutionary as Mr. H. K. Sargent
(who makes one think of a llttlo dog in
high oats) and others may suppose. It
Is not asserted that all good men have
the same kind of Inspiration as the writ
ers of scripture, but that every candid
man is by his Creator visited Internally,
whereby he is raised in intelligence,
guided in oholce, upheld In suffering and
empowered to Industry and victory; that
the mind of man is penetrated and lighted
up by the mind of God, In making true
records, enacting laws, building institu
tions, searching out the heavens, count
ing the atoms of matter, commanding the
lightning, signing emancipation proclama
tions, leading armies, navigating seas,
and running on God's errands to tho
landa of the world.
This is not illumination, It is inspiration.
In this, man differs from all other earth
ly beings, in his capacity for receiving
God and being ennobled by his spirit.
To deny this is to deny the possibility
of redemption by spiritual restoration
with a new life, whereby man is trans
formed into the imago of God. No man
has any satisfaction simply as an Indi
vidual acting from his own center, nor
can he, till he comes Into the divine
impulse and order. What minister will
deny this?
For these reasons the word Inspiration
should not be narrowed down, to the writ
ers of the G6 books of the Bible. It can
not be proVen that these writers belong
to another order of beings a specially
privileged class;, leaving the rest of man
kind tD 9. sort of second-hand feeding.
It seems too much like fencing all the
rest of -mankind In their needs and bur
dens away from headquarters. It la not
believed that God has shut everybody
else down to a meaner existence.
