Active Trading at the Mer

ON SOUTHERN ACCOUNT
Kxport Wheat Market Depressed by
Cable Advices Choice Grades of
TIops Hold Firm Produce
Trade Is Light.
A livelier interest In th grain market was
shown at yesterday session of the Mer
chants' Exchange. Among the sales oti the
floor were 5X tons of wheat, two sales of
barley aggregating 450 tons and a. small
sale of oats. The demand for the coarse
grains for California shipment continues
good and there Is also a steady Inquiry
trom the Fouth for wheat, which. Is expected
ti show an increase soon.
The export wheat market was Inclined to
re depressed In view of the cable advices of
the day. London reported cargoes dull and
depressed with no buyers and Walla Walla
j rompt shipment 3d lower at 37s 3d.
December options at Liverpool were d
lwer than Wednesday's close. Wheat at
Chicago, however, was firm for all deliv
eries. Shipments for the week from Argentina
were 644,000 bushels, compared with 6fll.00
tushels last week and nothing from India
against 2i,ny bushels last week.

Hot Packer Show What They Can D In
the Market When They Try.
The rlrtstna- up of accounts in the Thanks
giving turkey trade reveals the fact thai,
notwithstanding the high price current, no
one. In nil probability, made much money
out of the deal except the growers. And
pot all of the latter, either, for the farmers
who fattened their birds with dollar wheat
are nt likely to have been overburdened
with prosperity a a consequence.
Trie Iar:e city retailers and packers
bough t their supplies In the country this
ur and in do-ng so bid up the prices
sc;iirt eai-h o'her, with the result that
tti r' was not much margin left hen they
got through. They likewise overbought, for
the most part, and at the end had a carry -iver
of rulU that represented a considerable
shrinkage tn th'tr profits.
1 riis direct buying by the big handlers
rut off l lie regular supply of the Front
t ret jobbers and nnt of those who tried
to HI' their orders only did so by buying
.utrik-ht in the country. The quantity of
t urkx s srnt In on cons'enment was ex
i - c I i j 1 1; 1 small as compared with the quart
titifs handled in previous years.
The operations of the packers were an
e"-open"r to the old-titne houses on Front
tr-'et. who had no intimation of their move-
trrnta or at least, paid no attention trf
tuem. Hy shrewd work the packers gained
an ad van t ago they are not likely to let
K af and they w til have to be reckoned
with in the hoiMny trade pf this, city in
th future. They put the market on a cash
ir.-t;id of a commission basis, in the busiest
st-ason of the year, and it would ' surprise
none if they followed tip the lead they
opened In other than holiday periods.
The poultry market yesterday was a
nominal affair. There was considerable
stork in all hands and no business to speak
of.

AT THE LUST
Stock Prices Rise Vigorously
at the Close.
EASY TO LIFT THE MARKET
SCrons Position of Values Shown by
the Ignoring of' Unfavorable In
Xluences Trade In Pro
fessional Hands.
SETT YORK. Nov. 27. The decrease in
the activity of the market for .locks to
day indicated the lapse Into professional
hands of most of the dealings and the
subsiding general interest on the part of
the money Interests. The price movement
on the diminished scale of activity indi
cated a growth of confidence on the part
of the professionals In the stability of prices.
Stocks which were sold out on the eve
of the ThankSRivlnpr holiday on the chance
of unfavorable developments in the interval
were re-purchased today.
The renewed uneasiness over the eitua
tlnn in the Balkans, which was causing de
pression in foreign centers when dealings
began here, was without influence in cheek
ing the advancing tendency. There was no
important selling pressure and this opened
the way to the success of the efforts of tho
room traders to lift prices along with their
absorption of stocks, no Important news
developed that explained the buying.-
The expected financial plan for the South
ern Factnc continued Jo play an Important
part in the motives of the professional
buvlng. but no progress, was made in any
authentic knowledge ul what is the plan or
of the actual existence of such a plan at
all. Another motive for some of the not
able movements was the expectation of de
cisions In pending cases by the Supreme
Court at Washington on Monday. This wns
the avowed explanation of the wide advan-:e
in the Consolidated Gas shares, the con
test of .hat company against the 80-cent
gas law being l:i the hands of the court
for dec! ilon. Tl.e coalers are expected to
be benefited bv the expected decision of the
court In the case agreed upon to test the
commodities clause of the Hepburn law.
Another advance in the price of copper
at the metal exchange and In the T,ondon
markets dissipated the Impression that the
market price or the metal was declining,
owing to a falling off in the demand. He
ports of large prospective orders for struc
tural steel material and for steel rails had
some stimulating effect on the shares of
Industrial corporations connected with the
iron and steel trade. Some of the Indi
vidual advances were based on special
causes, rumors of Intended dividend In
creases figuring in one or two cases.
Indicated declines foV the week In the
cash holdings of the banks in the neigh
borhood of $:.no0.OOrt seemed to be viewed
with equanimity. Kesldes the Government
operations, some demand for funds .has
affected this result, transfers having been
made to San Francisco by deposit with the
sub-treasury.
The Hank of France made a strong return
and there was a shading In the discount rate
there. The Bank of England authorities
refrained from raising the minimum discount
rate in soite of a considerable decline in the
proportion of assets to liability, resort hav
ing been made to the credits of the institu
tion during the week. An advance in the
discount rate had been looked for and the
open market discount rate, in consequence,
fell tiack to srme extent. Here the condi
tion of the money market was not appre
ciably changed, the six months' period,
however, showing a slightly lower Interest
rate. The foreign exchange market was
firm hut rates were not quotatily changed.
The most active trading of the day oc
curred Just at the last and prices were then
rising vigorously.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value. Sft.l.-,o.o0n. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

STRONG BUT I0T ACTIVE
WHEAT PRICES ADVANCE AFTER
A WEAK OPENING.
Condition of Fall-Sown Grain Re
ported to Be Below That of
a Vear Ago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 27. The wheat market
orened rather weak on .selling brought about
by a moderate decline at Liverpool, price at
the start being a t?hade to ytc lower than
Wednesday's close. Within the first 15 min
uts. however, a firmer tone developed and
prices advanced more than he!f a cent above
the opening price. The volume of trad dur
ing the greater part of the day was email.
An additional advance was recorded In the
last half of the eesslon. but all of the gain
was not maintained, although the close was
strong, with December at $1.03 and May
at ?l.fl8H51.U- News from, the Northwest
furnished, the principal reason for the firm
ness, although a report of a St. LouLs trade
Journal, which claimed that the condition of
the Fall-sown crop of wheat Is much below
that of a year ago and that the acreage is
considerably smalller had some effect. Fresh
news regarding the Argentine crop was mea
ger, but one dispatch stated that weather
conditions were favorable for harvesting. De
mand for cash wheat here was tame and a
poor demand wai? also reported In the South
west. New York reported new export bust
ne aggregating 75 boatloads.
Increased offerings of corn from Illinois
and Iowa caused weakness in the corn mar
ket, but the volume of trading was small.
The market closed weak, with prices
to c lower. December closed at 62c and
May at K2ti(i2c.
Oais were dull. Prices throughout the day
fluctuated over a range of to c. At the
eample tables prices were steady to C lower.
The close wm steady, with prices to e
below the previous clnse, December closing
at 4840 and May at 60c.
Provisions displayed moderate weakness.
Prices at the cloe were unchanged to 22C
lower.

FEWER - IDLE : MILLS
Improvement Continues in In
dustrial Lines.
WHOLESALE TRADE GOOD
Retail Business, However, Shows
Irregularity Decrease in Num
ber of Failures In the Week.
Bank Clearings.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27. Bradstreefs to
morrow will say:
Wholesale trade, crop and industrial de
velopments are generally in the direction of
Improvement; there is less idle machinery
and the tone of affairs generally Is still
cheerful, but there are numerous irregulari
ties noted in conditions in different sections
and industries. The situation as a whole,
therefore, lacks some of the uniformity
which characterized lt some time aso.
Most optimism and strength are exhibited
In the leading lines of domestic manufacture
and wholesale trade, particularly as to the
outlook for next year, and manufacturers are
buying more freely of most raw materials,
while wholesalers report evidences of scarcity
In many lines, especially cotton goods, for
Spring and later dellverx next year. In re
tall trade there Is a good deal of irregularity,
though the advent of rain and snow, fol
lowed by colder weather, helped to Improve
conditions as the week advanced. Collec
tions are better, except at the South, and
money Is in better demand for business pur
poses. Higher prices for leather, a turn in the tide
of shoe shipments, predictions ol freer buy
ing of railway materials, of lrrrt and wteel
and higher prices, with smaller sales of raw
wool, are leading incidents- of the week.
Failures in the United States for the week
ending November 2 number I'M, against 273
lart week and As In the like week of 17,
17 la 1900. 188 In 105 and ItH in 1S04.

numbered 25, which compares with 34 last
week and 46 in this week last year.
Wheat. Including flour, exports from the
United States and Canada for the week end
ing November 26 aggregate 4.836.342 bushels,
against 8,599,314 law week and 5,4nf.321 last
year For 22 weeks ending November -'6
this year the exports are 94.319,706 bushels
against 90,4S2,818 In the corresponding period
MANX MILLS ABE REOPENING.
Substantial Progress Made Toward Normal
Activity.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27. Dun's review of
trade tomorrow will say:
Although the holiday and' unseasonable
weather handicapped business this wjK.
further substantial progress was made to
ward normal commercial activity, especially
In respect to the number of wage-earners
employed in the leading industrials. MlilB
that hav-s been closed for over a year are
TO-opening and many plants that were on
part time or force are now in full opera
tion. Recovery Is making remarkable strides
and almost every comparison with condi
tions a year ago provides a reason for the
day devot-ed to grateful recognition.
One of the best features of the week was
the demand for supplies. Steel rails were
ordered moderately and many leading roads
are ready to operate If the mills will roll
according to special schedules at standard
