The rush "to'ell Northern Pacific was caused by the publication In a news bu Seau. bulletin of the statement lhat a plan had been perfected for the voluntary re tirement of the preferred stock In January by exena'nge' for ..general Hen at 3 "per -cent, 130per cent of the bonds being given for tnoi preferred stock. , This statement was, not vouched for as by official author ltys43utlt caused. a sudden. drop In North ern Pacific to 14. the price having touched S5ij, or 6i points over last night. This movement -in Northern Pacific was the moin feature of the market, but there wierarIous other important movements' which seemed to have relation to it. In cluding ..the Wisconsin, Central tpeks, Pere Marcuette -stocks, the Erie stocks and St. PauL The street was full of rumors of plans for-combinations looking, to a new trans continental, line, and tp the connection of interests In Northwestern territory. -Gains In the 'group motioned extended all ino-way rrom z-points up 10 vu n iMurm- -ern Pciflc. There was. beside, a vigorous upward movement- in Missouri Pacific, which car- rlecllt Hi, points over last night, and caused a revival-of many old rumors of plansf or extensive connection "amongst thet Gould Southwestern railroad companies. A risel in Union Pacific to 7? 'seemed to be -dutf to an attempt to adjust the dis crepancy in -value.. -and then that stock and Northern Pacific and Illinois Central rose buoyantly. In the morning 3fll n a. be lated demand to secure the right of sub scrlptlon'at par to the proposed' new "stock Issue, which are limited' to 'stockholders, of record today. Sugar was the one rcature among the' specialties with, a rise- of 3H. which was attributed to a turn against the shorts by the calling of long stocks. ? A "rise o5 4 points In General Electric and 'a'-full recovery of yesterdays vio lent decline In "New York Air Brake were on ILcht dealings; and attracted little at tention. Quite a number of obscure, low-' priced stocks moved upward' from 1 to 4 points, "with no other apparent reason than to" adjust their prices to the higher level receriily attained by the" generaf list. The market continued very broad, but the. reactionary" tendency was quite marked through a large portion of the list, includ ing the VanderDilt group. The market for bonds continued active and strong, without importtfht exceptions." Total pales, par value, $1,915,000.

Condition SaU-tactorytd B.9 rrycF t ana seiner. , - . w 'CLEVELAND, O., Dec 20; The iron Trader Review this week will say" ' Sel dom has a year closed with the Iron trade in such satisfactory condition Troth the standpoint of "both buyer and seller as !s the case at present. 'Production of plg Iron is increasing, after five months of steady .curtailment following. June .At the same time stocks which on November 1 for thq first time in tlje year showed a decline are now being reduced sharply. as Indicated by afaljlng ofT.of S0.000 ton's j Between iNOvemoer 1 ana uecemucr a. Prices that in the Summer months had fallen below the cost line to many pro ducers have made a moderate advance, and arc now on a level. Insuring a fair profit, though the mills have fared bet ter In th.1? respect than the blast furnaces thus fir. The latter.as a rule have sold fpr the first quarter. ot 1SP1. and In some cases for the first half, but here as In finished , material there; -has- been much more than the" usual conservatism in com mittals on future business, and sellers aroIh position to reajlze on. a Jarge part of "their output in 1901 whatever return general conditions In the new year may bring. Cpke contract-; have been nude, for tha first half of 1S0L In a good many Instances, and the -price to furnace men has pot been above 51 75 for Connllsvllle-coke. while producers in other districts have tied up at 51 50 to 51 60. The question of Lake Superior ore prices is entirely open as yet and reports of a representative meeting of tho Bessemer Ore Association are. incorrect Steel works, with perhaps one exception, are not likely to need out side metal -for some months. An offer to sell a. block, of 50.000 tons at 513 Pittsburg has. been withdrawn, It Is now reported, but portions, of the amount have sold at 513 25 and 513 30 PUb?burg. Producers of standard brands .nf. foundry Iron are firmer. In their -views, with an advance of 25 cents on local Irons In the Chicago district" - - .The consumption of finished material Is apparcntlr on a widening scale. Mills are well supplied w'h T"work. and the slackening of operations at the turn of the year will be only .such as holldiy ob servances and necessary repairs Tcnulre. The Interruption wUl -scarcely be felt in -I the consumption of pig-Iron . and, 1 half finished steel. The plate mills-arj. conspicuous in thel Accumulation of orders, all being filled for weeks aheifd, and the largest producers for nearly six months. The abolition .of commissions by tho plate pool following the practice of the beam poo will have a. tendency to restrict sales In territory remote from the mill, except In cases of direct representation through agencies. A meeting of struc tural steel manufacturers at New York last week -made no change In prices, which aro likely to remain unaltered until Spring. Demand is well sustained for the Winter season, and prospects Or the new year, are encouraging, j . ' ' " EASTERX LIVESTOCK. - CHICAGO, Dec. 0.-Cattle Receipts. 7000.
