mrr .Market for Chickens at De
clining Prices Cnctiangcd Quo
tation in the Grain Trade.
Hops Very Active.
The poultry-dealers are interested Just
now in tryins; to figure oat what price
Christmas turloera will command. Thcra la
considerable difference of opinion on the
subject, as no one has a vary clear idea
of th supply that will bo available for
the trade. Sonw dealers think a sufficient
41'isnttty will be put on the market to keep
p-Ieea down to a reasonable basis, while
others are satisfied the supply will be
short and that the prlra that prevailed at
Thanksgiving will again be quoted. Re
ports from the country do not Indicate
there ara very many birds on hand, but
s:iy shortage from thla source may b
offset by chilled atock. of which It la un
derstood a considerable quantity will be
placed on sale. liuees at the prices that
will prerall next week range from 10 to 14
cents.
There wss a good demand for lire
turkeys yesterday, and the few coops of
fered were d'lsposed of readily at prlcea
unchanged from last week. Ducks and
i geese also moved well. There was some
Inquiry for small broilers, but other kinds
of chickens were slow, weak and lower In
price.
WHEAT PRIC ES HOLD THEIR OVTN.
Trade Believes Bottom Has Been Reached
la Foreign and Eastern Markets.
The wheat market was quiet yesterday.
While there was some softness in the un
dertone In view of the decline abroad, prices
here underwent no change. Dealers are In
clined to believe that the foreign and
astero markete have about touched bot
tom and that there may soon be some re
covery ' In the "price movement. Liverpool
cables reported the market qnlet with th
approach of the holldaya
There were no important developments
in the oats and barWy markela Both were
quoted firm, the former at $27 and the
latter at iSl.lOtjrS:. Offering's of oata are
on a small scale, but It la said that with'
the advance in price there has also been
onw decrease In the rate of consumption.
In fact there Is a difference of opinion
among dealers as to the future prospects
of the oata market. While some are pre
dicting Zi or higher later In the season,
others declare that such asked prices will
turn the consumptive demand to hay or
other feed.
A sale of 100 tons of oats for January
February delivery at $31 was reported at

' NEW YORK, Dee. 15. The money mar
ket showed the further efTects of the de
mand of Europe for gold. The Sub-treas-ury-a
absorption from the banks of a little
over $1,000,000. although moderate by com
parison with the day before, brouRht the
cash loss on that account for the banking
week np to' tl.39.000. which Is but a lit
tle less than the figure of the surplus re
serve as shown In the bank statement of
Saturday. Payments continue to the Sub
treasury offices for Panama Canal bonds.
Preparatlona were In progress todsy for.
applications for the Brazilian coffee loan,
of which $10,000,000 will be offered in New
York tomorrow. These demands for bank
ing facilities outside the stock market, with
the surplus down to the vanishing point,
have the effect of dislodging some loans em
ployed In speculative holdings of stocks and
causing a shifting In other Instances.
The speculative position was made vul
nerable by this situation and there was a
party In the speculation ready to take ad
vantage of It. The purpose of this party
was proclaimed by advertisements and fol
lowed by an extensive line of selling or
ders from Boston. The market waa not
without support at different stages, which
caused occasional rallies. The rising in
terest rates for call money and the lessened
Inclination of lenders to place funds In
that way hampered the speculative buying
and left the ay open to the force! operat
ing for a decline.
The appointment of a commission by
Governor Hughes to probe the methods and
practices of speculative dealings waa made
opportune use of by the bear party, al
though a substantial element of the stock
exchange membership welcomed the work
thus set on foot. The good effects of the
work of the commission which formed the
banking legislation last year Is proof of the
good that might be done by Improvement of
atock market methods. The fact remains
that the proposed Investigation and reforms
would Infringe on the practices of an active
element In the market and the appointment
of the commission had some Intimidating
effect upon thla element.
There were some happenings which rein
forceO the bears In their attack. They
laid much atress on the unsettling of tariff
revision, especially of the steel schedules.
The examination by the waya and means
committee of the House of Important steel
men gave point to this contention. Part
of the acute weakness shown by American
Smelting In the past few days has been
attributed to the proposition to reduce the
tariff on lead.
A bad effect was produced by the reports
of the increasing agitation over the prop
osition of the railroads to advance freight
ratea and over the extensive Increases said
to be Involved In the changea proposed to
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Threats to take Congressional action on the
subject opened up a prospect of hostile
activity towards the project which was not
relished by those who have counted on the
beneficial effect of the increased freight
charges on the holders of railroad securities.
A reduction In copper quotations at the
New York metal market was a factor In
the depression shown by the . metal In
dustrial The disclaimer put out by the
Pennsylvania Railroad of the reports of
placing of Its steel rail order for the year
was the cause of some disturbance, as the
holding back of that order is of Influence
on the business of all the other railroad
A much more active demand was re
ported for time loana and less was offered,
resulting in advancing ratea in consonance
with the rise to 4 per cent In call loana.
The firmer money market reduced the de
mand for remittances of funds to European
centers and weakened the exchange market.
Expected engagements of gold for export,
therefore, were not made.
Tha considerable demand to cover ahorta
at the end of the day was testimony to the
professional origin of much of the selling.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value,
$5,164,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.
