CjMMERCIAL AND
The beginning- of tire last -week before
Christmas findh the holiday trade on at
full swing:, and as usual other lines are
in a measure neglected. This Is excep
tionally so In the- case of -wheat, and
there was very Uttle buslfiess doing: In
the cereal yesterday, although the East
rn markets showed sortie signs of Im
provement. The San. Francisco steamer
arriving Sunday night brought a good
sized consignment of California produce
And fruit, which met with a ready sale.
The efforts to keep eggs down to 27&c are
not very nucoesstul, nd-he-bulk of the
sales yesterday were made at 30c per doz
en. There Is'a good demand for the holi
day trade; and while some dealers are
Intimating loiver figure's. It Is thought
that the irice wllUhold fairly, steady un
til after Chtistmns. It Is too early In
the week to -get a line on the poultry
tmrket. and: the few birds that came In
yesterday jwerc ' not offering at figures
which lrtdoced bnvlng.

I'ORTLAXD MARKETS.
Grnln, Flonr. Etc.
The "wheat market yesterday showed
some improvement in the East, the Amer
ican visible showing a decrease, and a
"better export dcrharid being reported. In
the real market there was some buying
at &ipVic, but the movement was very
light, and win probablv continue so until
tonnnrc engagements are more pressing
than thc nr at the present time. The
iri?lght station continues steady, with
a fair amount of diF.ant tonnage offer
ing; not, hewevpr.' at rates diffidently at
tractive to Induce much chartering at
th present time. The C. H. "VVatjen. now

that powerful and' skillful manipulation
was at work to make the prices as high
as possible to meet the flood of outside
buying which was certain to come Into
the market after last week's events.
From the very first enormous realiz
ing was in ev'dence. Later In the day
various attempts were made to hold up
the market by marking up the prices of
various Individual stocks. As the fact
became, more and more evident that the
sustaining force of these Individual move
ments was token advantage of to con
tinue the unloading of heavy lines of
long stock, the professional element on
the exchange turned to the, bear side.
They were successful -in forcing a snarp
reaction, much reducing the gains that
had been largest, and completely wiping
out a large number of those that had only
reached moderate proportions. Manipula
tion developed at the close again to rally
the market .by bidding up Northern Pa
cific to 784 a record price. The shorts
were buying to cover elsewhere, so that
the closing was generally steady, with
the further course of the market very
net changes In prices today very' small.
the profits on last week's advances are
nn ,in enormous scale.
Today's animated outDnrst of outside
speculation, was the logical consequence I
or Jast week's events. The palpable fact t
that iarge banking and financial lnstltu-J

our stocks and. the dveJQpments; of the
week pointing to far-reacnins plans 'and
the Imprdvcment jf values was offset for
a time by the apparently dangerous con
dition of the money market against the
natural drain on its resources. The nor
mal course cf subtreasury operations also
promised some relief this week.
The outburst of bullish enthusiasm was
a certain consequence. The fact seems
to be that strong banking interests pro
vided themselves long since with ample
resources to take advantage of the reac
tionary tendency of stocks Incident to the
Decombcr period to absorb very heavy
amounts of the railroad stocks which have
figured most largely In the stpek mar
ket for many days past. So large and
effective was this buying "as to overcome
the natural reactionary tendency Jn. the'J
marnet ana -to. prompt the speculative
pub'ic to rush to secure stocks, seeing
that the expected reaction was not Hkely,
to occur before January. "Higher prices for
stocks in-January has -been the universal
expectation on the stock -exchange, and
speculators have only afforded an onnor-
tunity to buy stocks and hold them safely I
m anticipation or any rise. -
Last week's bank statement was ac
cepted as the assurance that money re
sources would be ample to hold stocks
over the January 1 period. Outside of
the opening' general advance, ranging up
to between 1 and 2 points, the most strik
ing later advances were in the New York
public utilities, led by Brooklyn Rapid
Transit and Metropolitan, the Erie stocks
and a number of the minor Vanderbills.
Amalgamated Copper also developed nota
ble strength, rallying 4 points. The ex
cited bull market was a striking contrast
to the panic of a year ago, when the
constriction of the money supply was
forcing stocks on the market at any sac
rifice In order to meet the calling of loans.
Bonds were not so active as stocks, 1
and the movement of prices was Irreg
ular. Total sales, par value, 55,360,000.

Advertiser's London financial cablegram
says: The markets here were fairly ac

affected by a heavy slump In Westrallan
mines, which may lead to severe trouble
In the market.
Americans were buoyant and active,
closing excited at the top. although the
dealings were still mainly professional.
Favorites were Northern Pacific. Atchl
sons. Southerns and Erie preferred. There
was no initiative here, only implicit ac
ceptance of New York tips.
New York sold Anacondas, dishearten

even one they bought Argentines and
Brazilians.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17. Corn again took
precedence on the Board of Trade today,
and was strong and higher from the start.
The unsettled weather conditions, render
ing still more uncertain any Increase in
the contract stocks, and the total ab
sence of contract corn In today's arriv
als of 547 cars, revived anxiety among
shorts, who became active bidders for
both December and jMay as the session
progressed. Chief Interest centered in the
December option. This was bid up very
rapidly by one prominent broker, who
Is credited with being heavily short, the
price reaching 39ic before the reaction
came. Even at that figure there was lit
tle offered for sale. The decrease In tne
visible supply of e24,O00 bushels helped
the bull situation. May in the meantime
also showed considerable strength, though
having periods of comparative depression.
December closed 2?i.c higher at 3914c May
closed 14c higher at 3614c.
Wheat was inclined to be weak early In
the session. Lower cables, world's ship
ments of about 1.000,000 bushels larger
than expected, and a large Increase on
passage, had a depressing effect on trad
ers, and the market for some time ap
peared to be utterly without support.
Opening 14c lower at 7254673c, May sold
at 72!72ic during the first hour of trad
ing. Up to about 11 o'clock the .market
continued heavy and apparently bare, of
buyers, but a hardening tendency devel
oped soon after, prospects of a good In
crease In the visible and the strength of
corn. bringing, good support. During the
iast hour. the market was dull, -but quite
tfirm, 4nd all. the early loss was recov
ered. .May advanced to 731ic, and closed
at that price.
...Oats were dull from start, to finish,
business being confined .entirely to pro
fessionals. May closed a shade higher at
2323?ic.
Provisionb were dull and easy early,
heavy hog receipts causing a general de
cline In prices. Lard and pork were of
fered quite freely. Toward the close the
demand Improved, shorts coming into the
market and prices recovering somewhat.
January pork closed 10c lower, lard 214c
lower, ribs unchanged.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

CHICAGO WHEAT GOSSIP.
The Situation of the Cereal In Amer
ica Is'Fnlrly Strong.
F. G. Logan's Chicago grain letter to
R; W. McKinnon & Co. yesterday con
tained the following comment on the sit
uation: The market is extremely duIL
The early statistics were" weak, consisting
of world's, shipments o'f 8.400.Q0O bushels,
against 5,100.000 bushels last .year, and
an increase, on passage of 2,G0O,fd bushels.
This -occasioned some selling pressure at
the opening. Later the- market firmed
again on a decrease of 412,000 bushels In
our visible The action of our visible
supply is a puz?le to the trade. Last
year at this time- stocks were Increasing,
with exports nearly on a par with the
present rate. This year, with primary
receipts the past two weeks 25 per cent
larger, mills in the -Northwest, until the
past few days, nearly all shut down, and
Stocks are decreasing. It may be that
there Is considerable wheat In transit by
rail between Buffalo and the seaboard
that would partially account for this.
But In the main we think it is due, first,
to duplication of receipts at primary mar
kets, and to the usual milling demand
through the East, which is being supplied"
from market centers. The visible supply
is now 61.000,000 bushels, against 67,000,000
bushels a year ago, with very much less
In interior and private warehouses. The
situation statistically Is therefore fairly
strong. Primary receipts are 1.12S.O0O bush
els, against G34.CO0 bushels last year. Ship
ments, 171.000 bushels, against 1SS 0C0 bush
els last year. Estimate of cars for tomor
row, 175.
