r,nMER TONE m STOCK MARKET
Public Participation. However, Is Suii
NUticCnbl. Absent

NEW YORK. Dec. 4.-Bradstreet's Financial
Review tomorrow Will say; a firmCr tone has
bcen exhibited In the speculative share market
during the present week. The quality Of the
transactions has not improved. In the main
they are still the work of professional traders
and public participation as gauEcl 10y the inuc-
tiNlty OF commission brokers, Is almost entirely
lacking. on the other hand liquidation OF long
holdings of stocks has practically ceased. and
the bears find that their efforts to deprpss
prices 10y artificial manipulation does not bring
out real stocks. but simply increases the short
be growing excessive, and the position of the
market had been In which its liability to
become ovcrsold Is an important factor 1t
would seem that some OF the larger bear inter
side OF the account, ana that far as opera
tuns OF that sort are concerned, they are due
To the disposition which the board room element
and the smaller class OF professional spectators
dullness Is the pronounced feature The more
hopeful feeling which animatcs the market seems
to be due to revision of speculative opinion
regarding the probable tenor and tfftcts OF the
treatment OF the Cuban question. The current
reports from Washington indicate that II WILL so
far as concerns this matter, be conservative
document, which the street CONSTITUTES as favor
able to the market There is, of course, unCer-
tainty about the course Of congress on the
Cuban and other matters but a feeling has
grown that the short session may not be pro-
duCtiVe of any very positive action, though the
larger speculative interests. which, stated
above. have ceased to act the bear side, show
indisposition to adopt any positive course
until congress meets and there is some definite
basis on which to judge OF It's policy. II must,
however, be noted this has not deferred certain
interests from instituting bullish munipuations
In their own spccialties, more particularly in
stocks in which the existence of any considerable
volume of bear contracts afforded opportunity
Tor making prices ON the shorts.

CATTLE-The receipts of cattle today
We're the llghtcst Of the week 10 cate, and
the liShtcst of any day since Friday OF last
week. In general way the market was
without cnangc of Importance as regards
values and the days business was featur-
less.
There were no choice cornfcd steers here
and the best were only good enough to bring
Ai5, while half-fat stun sold at $3.50 and
upwards. In addition to the native cattle
there We're few loads OF westerns good
enough FOR beef but not ma"y. Ine market
was unchanged as compared with yestor-
day The demand was good at the prices
prevailing and tho offerings all met with
ready sale.
Butchers stun was also about steady and
the half dozen loads soon changed hands.
The demand for that kind OF stock is good
all the time at this point and the receipts
on most days fan short of the requirements,
As noted yesterday the supply of feeders
has been most too large for the country
demand and the accumulation of cattle in
the hands of spectators has had a tendency
to deprcsS tie market Values today were
not materially changed, desirable kinds of
feeders selling at just about steady prices,
IN some cases strong, others slow and
draggy. Representative sales:
