New York, Dec. 7.--Reports of lower
prices ito be made in staple cottons are
ule feature of the dry goods market
to-day. Up to the close, however, there
mad been none reported but the feeling
ID strong among dealers that this will be
done in the near future. At least one
prominent agent has signitied his nten-
tion to give q lower price for certain
staples bleached goods, and this Will
nr,oha bly, cause decline all along the
hne. In the meantime reports show
that trading is on limited basis, both
nv mail order and in store trading. In
brown goods there is little interest dis
nlayed whether in shirtings or in wide
sheetings and bleached goods are scarce
u better, SO far as general results are
-concerned.
Manufacturers and conyerterS are still
=the leading buyers in the market, but
other purchases are so small that the
aggregate does not amount to much. Tx
mort goods are still without feature, sell
ing very slowly and only at prices
which are liberal concessions on the part
OF the sellers. Coarse colored cottons
are dull in all grades. Print cloths show
no added interest. The quotation is
still 2A cents Printed cotton goods
are quiet in all seasonable lines and in
staples. Silks are reported fairly ac-
tive and strong.

business was fairly active, but outside

prices. BY noon the early improvement

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 7.-Outside OF a
sensational spurt in December wheat
which took place shortly after the open
ing, to grain and provision market was
dull and uninteresting to-day. A jump
of three cents in December, on an at
tempt to buy about $4,000 bushels,
strengthened the belief ;hat that option
is very securely "cornerel." 1t closed

aggressive strength later showed small
losses ut the opening. This was notauiy
trne in the cases of Louisville and At
Gibson preferred. The early strengt ID ii
the market, was i'll fact, most notable III
the specialties. There was scramble
of competing orders in Sugar which car
ried that volatile security UP 3as per cent
in the first fifteen minutes OF trading. 1t
dropped 2 points almost AS quickly on
offerings to realize.
The largest gains in the first hour
were all in the specialties. Southern
preferred was the first of the railroad
stocks to attract marked atten ion and
the price was advanced point. New
Jersey Central also showed Il tendency
to recover from its recent weakness
though it's tone was rather feverish. This
and the irregularity of Sugar checked
the advance and activity of the market
at times and there were several periods
of dulness on slight reactions during the
day. 1t was not till the afternoon that
the strength of the railroad list became
aggressive and general, the southern
and southwestern roads being most con-
spicu0us and holding their gains IN 1St
firmly. Burlington advanced at one
time point but reacted before the .:'osn
and the grangers and western stocks did
not compare favorably in strength with
those in the southern region which tc-
day began to feel the influence Of the
remarkable showing of gains IN gross
earnings for the fourth week in Novem-
her which have been renorted during the
week by the roads in that region.
The market was helped also by the
dividend declarations announced to-day
and those in prospect. TIE action of
the market reflected very distinctly the
LARGE and aggressive operations of mani
pulative combinations and there was
very little outside interest manifested IN
the stocks division of the market.
London, besides marking dowo prices
before the opening here, sold stocks very
persistently in this market, notably st.

very wide and varied inquiry and con-
