A SATISFACTORY TRADE
In Nearly All Lines of Merchandise, With

Generally Firmly Held-Current Gossip
and Revised Prices.

In Nearly All Lines OF merchandiSP, With
Collections Uniformly Easy Staples
Generally Firmly Held-Current Gossip
and Revised Prices.
WEDNESDAY, Dec. Z.
A generally satisfactory condition of af-
fairs prevails in mercantile circles Collec-
tions are almost uniformly easy, and mer-
chants state that sales of drygoods, grocer
les, provisions, clothing and holiday spe-
cialtles are quite as large as is usually
witnessed in early December, if not larger.
Prices for most staples hold steady to firm.
Cotton goods are exceptionally firm in SYM
pathy with the remarkable advance that
has recently taken place in the raw mate
rial, and sugar and coffee are held firmly.
The advance in the price of cotton has been
q great boom to the South; has stimulated
every department of industry and trade, and
cannot fail to aid greatly in the develop
ment of the wonderful natural resources Of
that favored portion of the country. Now
that the barbwire manufacturers have
forme d. trust, this article may be expected
to sell at higher prices. The plants of the
companies in the combine have an aggre-
gate capacity of 80, 600 net tons of wire rods
per annum, 275. 900 tons of plain wires, l20, 900
tons of barbwire, and 5000 kegs OF nails
daily.
prominent operators within the past week,
says Chicago paper, to advance the price
OF wheat, but this is a most difficult matter
in the face of the continued enormous re-
ceipts at primary markets. The farmers
seem to be in a great hurry to sell their
wheat, and the already immense stocks in
warehouses are being rapidly increased, tho
receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth being
especially heavy, The ruling prices Tor
wheat are phenOmenally low, and corn is
also very cheap, but hog products are scarce
and unusually high. Compared with one
year ago the present supply OF contract
mess pork is 1929 barrels less-equa1 to 30
45l, ,s7G pounds; OF lard q, ,9a tierces less, and
of meats 30S9, 900 pounds less. There is
large shortage in the hog "crop," and hogs
are rapidly rising in value.
Game, poultry, potatoes and some de-
scriptions or vegetables were quoted higher
in this market to-day, but the mild weather
was given as a depressing factor. Some of
the dealers reported sales of potatoes as
high us 90c per bushel from store, but the
general range was SO@S5c.
ranberrieS continue to drift upward. 1t
is said the remainder of the crop is con-
trolled by a syndicate.
Dairy products and eggs are firmly held,
but prices remain unchanged
One of the merchandise brokers reported
coffee as showing Ieactionary tendency.
He believes, however, that roasted coffee
will ultimately be higher.

rsPEoIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
NEW YORK, Dec 7.-During the greater
part of the day the stock market was dull
and irreguler Efforts were made to de-
press prices, but not much was accom-
plished by them except in Missouri Pacific
and Atchison, both of which yielded ma
terislly under moderate pressure In
the last hour the tone of the mar
ket changed suddenly and prices
advanced sharply. At the same time the
trading became more animated. This
movement was generally ascribed to a more
hopeful feeling because of the introduction
in Congress of several measures tor the re-
peal Of the Sherman silver act of 1890 As
matter fact, the rally was due to the over
sold condition of the market rather than to
any change In the condition of the affecting
values
Distilling and Cattle Feeding and Sugar
Refining were much more extensively
traded in than any other shares, and their
course exerted decided influence upon the
limited speculation. The transactions in
the last-named were less than half as large
as yesterday, when the enormous dealings
indicated elimination of the decline. The
best information obtainable regarding the
recent furry in this stock is that certain
interest in a bull pool formed not long ago
attempted to anticipate their associates in
accommodating stock
The market for Distilling did not reflect
in a decided way the benefits which friends
OF the company claim it will derive from
an increased tax spirits, as recommended
by the Secretary of the Treasury in his re-
port. A constant warfare appears to be
waged in this stock. A Chicago operator
with well known record for plung-
ing in the markets at that CEN
ter IA currently reported to be
the chief operator on the short side of Dis
tiling and his ventures are said to be very
large. Those who are identified with the
enterprise profess to be undisturbed by
selling OF this character and assert that the
net earnings of the Company are now ap-
proXimately S25, 600 day, or about $3.50, 600
per month, which is largely in excess of
dividend requirements, even at the rate of
6per cent per apnum.
In the railway snare list the most import
ant dealings we're in Reading, which was
strong throughout. and closed fractionally
higher than yesterday. A slight improve
ment in the anthracite trade is reported,
but the most encouraging development re.
Rarding the anthracite carrying roads is the
turn that litiga tion against them has taken.
Minor movements were those in Missouri
Pacific Atchison, New England and Chicago
Gas. The last moved in unison with the
other industrials. Outside of the stocks
that have been named the trading was very
light and prices reflected the constantly
changing views Of professional traders or
sympathy with the few stocks that were
active.

NEW YORK, Dec. NATURALLY after the
activity and recent sharp decline in Ameri-
can Sugar Refining, speculative interest at
the opening of business this morning natu-
rally centered largely in that stock. 1t was
soon made evident that the heavy liQuida-
tions were about completed and that a new
party stood ready to absorb any fresh offer
ngs that might come in. The street Ielt
much relieved over this turn of affairs and
as the DAY advanced a more confident feel
ing took possession of the list.
The various reports from Europe in re-
gard to the international Monetary Confer
ence and from Washington concerning the
silver measures introduced In Congress to-
day failed to have any decided influence on
the stock market, and, for that MATTER on
silver cerrifcates, which f1uctuated within
a range OF 4 per cent, the extremes having
been s2sk and sSz. The Improvement in the
share list was equal to half or one per cent.
Railway bonds were firm. The sales were
81 ,4S7, 900.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec Russian >news-
papers accuse Miss Kate Marsden. of the Red
Cross Society, who is attempting to raise
funds for the relief of lepers in Siberia, of ex-
aggeration in her accounts of the ravages of
leprosy in that part of the Empire.
The papers state that instead of 10, 900
