Absence of any fur ther compllcatlona In the local banking situation was of material assletanoe to the daya atoeic market. The concerted and ef fectual methods empluyed by powerful In terests to confine the trouble to Its source were received with lively satisfaction In stock exchange circles.

Another favorable feature was the con tinuance on even a larger scale of the In quiry for bonds. Totsl transactions were the largest of many daya Trlcee receded and the stock market lan guished during the early afternoon, chiefly on further realizing for profits, but the early activity was resumed In the last hour, the closing shoalng general gains, but be low the day's best prices. The slUht activity In Pacific Mall was associated with tha Introduction of a ship subsidy bill In congress today, although the proposed measure ellmlnatca the trans-Pa-rtflc lines and favors only those serving South America. A factor In the day's business was the greater ease In money, which opened at 4 per cent and soon declined fractionally on offerlnxs In excess of demand. Local banks made large cash gains from the sub-treasury. and snrface conditions point to further gems from that 'quarter with resultsnt strengthening of cotton bills. Iilsconnts abroad held firm and tha London markets were dull and heavy. LarK'e volumea of traffic are being han dled at the Important railway centers, ac cording to the reports from the West and feouthaest, but some fslllng off Is shown compared with the heaviest business of the previous week.

CHICAGO. Jan. 9. According to one au thority, the secret of the hot campaign by the bull leaders ih wheat' was an effort to establish a level where large holdings could be unloaded at a handsome profit. Smaller primary receipts helied turn the tide In general to the buying side- in addition, aggressive support by the promoters of higher prices became so apparent that specu lators who ordinarily take the bear posi tion were plainly Intimidated. A falling off In the visible supply came as a timely aid to the bulls, and there was a similar effect from the diminished ' total of the suppllea on ocean passage. There were two strong swells to the market during the session, each followed by a moderate reaction, but the closing tone was firm. May ranged from $1.004 to l.01'4 1.02, with last sales "4ftlc up at fl.01. Hedging sales of various amounts pre vented a sharp advance In com from prov ing permanent. The May price, neverthe less, went above 50c a bushel. May fluctu ated between 49T4C and 50C closing 'Atf'io net higher at 504j50?4c The cash market was firm. No. 3 yellow finishing at 47 i'47tc. Producers of oats cut loose In earnest with selling orders on advance. May touched as low and high points 34c and 35c clos ing at 3435c which waa 44! below Saturday's ttsurea. Liberal offerings from longs proved the final influence in hog products, offsetting bullish feeling from other pits. The out come left pork and lard 2tc off to 2V4c up and ribs 2c down to 10c advance. The leading futures ranged as follows: 'WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close. Jan f .97 f .974 f -97 -7.
