NEW YORK, Dec. Save for a
tronouncedN contraction of business,
both as to volume and variety of is
sues traded in, dealings on the stock
market Friday differed In no import
ant essentials from those of recent
irregular sessions.
Interest continued to center In
Southern Pacific, the erratic course of
that issue suggesting an increasing di
vergence of opinion, in speculative cir
cles at least, regarding the potential
benefits to be derived from the com
pany's plan of segregation.
General advices and developments
were conflicting in their relations to
market values. Passing of the divi
dends on two of the low priced copper
j shares occassloned only mild distur-
ranee in mat group, naving eviaenuy
been discounted.
Further curtailment , or indifinlte
suspension of operations in many
branches of industry, especially steel,
rubber and textiles, merely confirmed
recognized conditions of the past few
months, as Bet forth by commercial
and financial authorities.
. Bhippings, motors and several equip
ments and food and leather specialties
were under renewed pressure. Sale3
73."), 000 shares. '
Money on call and time was quot

exchange was nominal and moderately
Checks liulih Wheat .Move "
CHICAGO. Dec. 4. Heluctanca of
export interests to follow any advance
in prices tended Friday to check bull
ish ardor concerning wheat. The mar
ket closed unsettled, Vio net lower to
1 l-2c higher, with December 1.70'
to 1.70 V4- and March 1.64. to, 1.85.
Corn finished 1-8 off to 7-8 up and oats
gained y. to 3-8. In provisions there
was a setback of 50 to 57 cents. j
Bears In the wheat market put spe
cial stress on early indications that
yesterday's sharp upturn In values had
brought European demand to a stand-.
still. It was pointed out that at a rule
foreign governments have . refrained
from buying wheat on a big scale ex
cept "When prices were depressed.
Heavy selling, which set In. from the
east, however, met with stubborn re
sistence from commission - men and
elevator interests and it was contended
that lower prices did not- harmonize
with the amount of business already
done or with prospective enlarged .re
quirements of domestic mills. Gossip
that a moderate amount of wheat had
been purchased for shipment . to
Europe by way of the Gult:of Mexico
helped to restore comparative strength
to the market.
Corn and oats were governed by the
action of wheat. . t i, .
Provisions sympathized wltp, down
turns in the value of hogs. . .:

Holiday Season Helps
KOtne Itetall Trade. '
NEW YORK. Uec. 4. Dun'a today
says: filgns of the movement In bus-.
iness and sentimeut, if slow to appear,
are rather more distinct in certain
quarters. The retail movement, al
though lacking the desired breadth, is
accelerated as the holidays draw near
and some primary markets are fecov
ering a little from their lethargy.
Th3 whole situation is uneven and
uncertain as Is natural In a time of
readjustment and the general policy
is one of deferring important action
until conditions become more stable.
After the turn of the year, when re
sults of Inventorlng and Christmas
trade shall have been made known,
the future business outlook may seem
less obscure..
