pound boxes now In transit from the Coast

noted today. Outside lots picked up aggregate
our carloads at the above figures. Today's

sizes being 5c f. o. b. in 25-pound boxes.
Salmon continues steady on Alaska sockeye
and Chinook varieties. Chums are easy and
pinks dull, -with some pressure to Bell, in view
of large shipments on the way. W. B. Timms,
an authority on salmon. Just returned from
the Coast, reports that stocks on the Coast
and In transit constitute a weak feature, with
possibly low prices to clean up.
Locally, the hop market is flat, there being
no demand from brewers. Supplies, however,
are not accumulating to any extent, stocks re
ceived going through for export. Wires from
state markets report dullness, with low grades
easy, but strictly choice firm.

SLUMP IN STOCK PRICES
MELTING AWAY OF GAINS IN LAST
-HALF-HOUR OF TRADING.
Specalatlon an to Posnible Need of
Protective 3Icaaures Takea by
Banking: Pool.
NEW YORK, Dec 16. There was an extra
ordinary melting of prices in tho'Jast half-hour
of today's market, following -a marking up of
quotations durlnfe the previous portion ,of the
session. Shortly before 2:30 prices were at the
highest of ,the day, and net gains of 2 points
or over bad been attained by leading stocks
here and there In all the principal groups, such
as Pennsylvania, Southern Pacific, Missouri Pa
cific, St. Paul, Rock Island preferred, Delaware
& Hudson and Sugar. In the last half-hour
St. Paul dropped back abruptly 31, and some
of the other stocks were carried swiftly down
ward. The interpretation of the movement
was believed to be that the powerful interests
in the financial world which announced their
organization yesterday for the protection of the
mdney market desired to convey a warning
that they had no intention of allowing those
plans to be Interfered With. There was more
or less realizing before the close by the profes
sional traders who bought in yesterday's mar
ket and early this morning.
Previous tc the final slump, the course of
prices was Quite prosperously upward. There
were reports o.I assurances received by the
State Department regarding the Intentions of
Great Britain and Germany In Venezuela, which
served to cause a better sentiment on that sub
ject, but the principal influence in the rise was
the reassuring effect of tho formation of the
bankers' pool providing $50,000,000 for use in
a possible money market emergency. The
effect Tras to relieve the stock market from
the rressure of liquidation. Offerings became
so light, in fact, that it was easy to bid up
prices on very light purchases. This was the
notable case among some of the inactive stocks,
among which the floating supply Is always
light, especially In the Vanilcrbllt group. There
was some surprise expressed, however, over
the extent of the protective measures taken by
the banks. There was much surmise as to a
possible real need for those measures, which
has not been disclosed, and a disposition to
consider that the existence of such a need was
Indicated by the formation of the pool.
While It was recognized that no part of this
fund would llkelv find Its way directly Into
the stock market. ' It was considered probable
that further withdrawals of loans from the
stock market would bo avoided, owing to the
unfavorable effect on sentiment which the
heavy stock liquidation had caused. The prin
cipal good which It Is hoped to achieve by the
announcement of the large resources available
Is upon sentiment. Part of the present strln-
gency is undoubtedly due to the withholding
of funds by persons who have become timid or
who have determined to wait for high money
rates before lending their resources.
Call loan rates did not get above 6 per cent
today, and ran off to below 5 per cent when
the principal demands had been met. The
time money market was also easier in tone,
although not quotably changed. Much satisfac
tion was felt because, notwithstanding tho
easier tone of money, sterling exchange rates
yielded an additional fraction. The stock mar
ket closed distinctly weak.
Bonds became firm in sympathy with stocks,
but yielded at the last. Total sales, par value,
$2,505,000. United States new 4s declined
per cent on the last call.
Negotiations were concluded today for the
Immediate Importation of $25,000,000 In gold
from France this week. The metal will leave
Havre next Saturday, consigned to the National
City Bank, of this city.

CABLES WERE EASIER
WHEAT RULED WEAK AND LOWER
AT CHICAGO.
Knowledge Tliat Armour Was Sell
ing Induced.' Others Alr.o to Let
Go Good Export Demand.
CHICAGO, Doc. 10. Wheat ruled weak and
lower on easier cables and better weather In
the Northwest. Tljo weakness ot outside mar
kets and the general inactivity of the market
were depressing Influences. The leading Ions
enlarged his line, but It was supposed that he
tv as selllnc- through brokers, and this tact In
duced others to sell. May opened a shade to
C Ibwer, at 77H0775sC77ie, and gradually
sold off to 7Gc. A larce export demand
caused a slight rally towards the cloje, which
was jHc lower, at 7777$4c. December
was !c lower, at 7-JVic.
Increased receipts caused heavy liquidation
in com, and there was a break of 2&c in De
cember early in the day, and though coverings
by scattered shorts caused a rally later, the
"general situation was easier. Reports from the
country were bearish. Lower cables, better
weather and an Increase. In Bradsreets visible
supply were depressing Influences. May closed
a shade lower, at 13V5QM35ic. December was
off 2c, closing at 33c.
Oats were easier.. May closed Uv4c lower,
at 3214c.
Provisions opened firm on higher prices for
hogs at tho yards. A fair demand for January
lard was a supporting influence, and the close
was steady, with January pork oft 5c, lard un-'
changed, and ribs 2H5c lower.
