CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions on the Board o

The Days Transactions on the Board OF
CHICAGO, Dec. Weakness was still
the prevailing feeling when the wheat
market opened and it did not change ma
terially all day. 1t was expected that last
weeks decrease in the visible instead OF
the heavy increases which had been looked
for would all be explained on Monday next
by an increase of 100000 bushels or
over for the present week. 1t was con-
tended that nineteen cargoes OF wheat
were on Saturday last still In the holds OF
the vessels in Buffalo harbor, which had
been counted out of the visible last week
because the railroad company there had
the orders to forward it and that large
proportion of that would reappear this
week at seaboard points. 1t was claimed
that with an increase for the week as ex-
pected at Minneapolis and Duluth of
1900, 900 bushels and a probable increase
of l 100000 bushels at New York there
could not be otherwise than over 2, 000,0
bushels net increase in the visible. 1t was
pointed out, however, that arguing from
just such premises week ago the
trade went far astray. There was nothing
by the shorts made the price tend down
ward from start to finish. May sold early
at 6O3s, and was being maintained with
apparent difficulty at 80 cents as the ses-
sion was drawing to close. Corn was
weak. III sympathy with wheat. May was
especially weak, and declined &c per
bushel. December closed * ard January
&c 'wer. There was heavy trade in
the oats market. During the early part of
the day the feeling was comparatively
firm; later, however, the weakness in
wheat, together with increased offerings,
caused a decline, and the record for thirty
six years was broken by May selling for
10 cents. Provisions showed little
strength because the days run of hogs was
10000 head instead of $4,000, as esti-
mated. Perhaps the principal cause OF
the advance with which the market closed
was that John Cudahy and some others
thought well of covering. Compared with
yesterdays closing prices May pork is
TIC higher, lard and ribs each &c up.

WALL STREET SPECULATION
The Net Results in the General Market Show
IrreguIarity, With Slight De-
cllnes-BOnds Higher

Associated Press Special Wire.
New YORK, Dec. l4.-Speculatioii today
was, as usual, chiefly in the industrials.
The movement in that group was sharply
upward. Sugar gained 1 u per cent. The
railway shares were lightly dealt in. Esti-
mates of gold shipments on Tuesday next,
ranging up to $4,000, 900, caused sagging
tendency in the leading railways, which
tended to irregular closing. Up to late
hour the only definite news of probable en-
gagements for Tuesday accounted for but
$2,15O,O0O. No gold has actually been
engaged as yet. The industrials also con-
stituted the greater part of the weeks mar
ket, although a number of new develop
ments bearing upon the railway and gen.
eral list came to hand. The news in gem
eral affecting the railway shares was
mainly of an encouraging character, aside
from the shipments of the previous metal
600. The restoration of the divided on
Northwest common to per
cent annual basis was a nota-
BILE event, rejecting the belief OF the
powerful and conservative interests con-
trolling the property that the outlook Tor
business encouraged that action. The re.
sumption of dividends on the preferred
stock of the Denver and Rio Grande conf
pany after an interval of two years. the
ratification of the Panama railroad Pa
elf Mail Steamship contract, and the dec
laration of thhe regular quarterly divi-
dends upon the Manhattan railroad and
Western Union Telegraph stocks, were
also encouraging developments. The net
! results in the general market show irreg-
ularity, with a slight preponderance OF de-
clines. Railway and miscellaneous bonds
| ruled active and higher on dealings amount
| ing to $SS2,OOO Northern Pacific seconds
were the feature of the speculation, rising
| 3 per cent: do collateral trust skies, per
| cent. Governments were active and higher
during the week on purchases of $lO4 400.
Silver certificates ruled weak and lower,
with sales of $40, 900.

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-The Financier says this
this city for the week ding ecember ii
shows an unexpected OK pansion of SO, 10000
in loans, whici must be attributed as much to
the speculative excitement of the past ten d avs
as to a legi innate denand from mercantile
sources for money. The interior movement of
currency for the week netted the New York
banks not less than two and one half millions
of dollars. This is probably counted in the
statement Against this should placed the
loss through tne W, hdrawals of legal tonder
for the gold shipments OF the last pa o last
week and the one million dollars withdrawn
during the current week. These losses have
nearly Offset the gain. but the statement does
not show 1t. The net cash loss is 81 $50, 900.
The specie item is slowly increasing but this
accumu alton is not at the expense of the
treasury, WHICH is actually .gainin gold from
of the New York banks are Ill about $1i,-
900 less than the highest total reported during
this year.

Prospective Prices

fTOSpcStiNc fTtSoS
Prices during the season will unquestion-
ably be greatly influenced by the supplies
available from sources other than Call
fornia orchards. Florida can hardly be
considered factor with her estimated
output of 900 boxes all told.
The coming crop of the best Italian
oranges is estimated by the United States
commercial agent Huntington at Castella-
mara at abou two-thirds of the average or
perhaps a little less, but the damage done
last spring will not affect further crops, as
the trees were not injured. The quality
promises to be superior, and opening prices
will be higher than before.
United States Consul Seymour at Pa
Jermo reports that on account OF the
drought the maturity of Italian fruits has
been retarded. Lemons command high
price and shippers are idle waiting favor
able opportunities. The lemon crop is
large, but somewhat injured by insects.
In considering these reports it must be
remembered that the Italian crop, though
but two-thirds OF that of last year, is still
large enough to swamp the United States
market. as it did last year, if any profit
can be made in the operation. But the
dealers who last year metaphorically
burned their fingers handling Italian fruit
are more cautious now, and if the market
he even fairly we'll supplied, and all in
the neghborhood of reasonable, there
will be no advances of 81 a box for
for Mediterranean fruit and fair field for
the California product. 1t is the policy of
the exchange. too, to keep the orchards
clean by shipping fruit as fast as it ripens,
thus avoiding the alternate glut and fam
inc which prevailed last year, with the re-
suit that at the end of the season some
hundreds of carloads of good oranges lay
rotting on the ground. At present all the
prospects favor a steady market at fair
prices during the whole season.

Pair Prices, Which VIII Clean Up
the Whole Output

The orange market this year presents as
the most noteworthy feature very strong
demand with comparatively small sup
plies of fruit to fill it. The demand for
oranges throughout the east is probably
no greater than it has been at any cores
ponding time for the past five years, but
the short supplies from Florida, the lack
of returns from European shipments
last year, the failure of the Florida crop,
and the effective advertising given Cali
fornia fruit last season, all conspire to con-
centrate the demand upon California
oranges.
The supply of ripe fruit, though small as
compared with the demand, is very much
larger than is usual at this season. From
some cause or many causes oranges have
opened nearly month earlier than in
previous years, and the fact has already
caused rejoicing among the orange grow
ers, to whom cash at the beginning of the
season Is doubly welcome,
