CHANGERS THE LEADERS
Money and Stock Markets Ap-
preciably Firm.
TIanse ctions Largely Influenced by
Orders From London Houses
The Wheat Yield.

New York, Dec. .13.-The Treasury state
ment for November for expenditures vt
the country's principal domestic articles
showed total OF $82, $4,000, an in ere Sc
Of more than $4,000 900 over October's
exports and an increase of $4,000, loO
over November, 1896. The increase OYER
the November shipments OF ] s95 and
1894, amounted respectively to $4,000.
600 and S24,OO0,O0O. The large ship
ments for tie month were due entirely
to tho export OF breadstuffs. Owing -
the difference OF IL cents a pound in the
average export price Of cotton as CON
pared with November, 1896, the value
Cf the exports of that staple was nr
terlalIy diminished.
Thereport OF another Government depl,t-
ment was published today and was worthy
OF note. y special investigation ordered by
the Department Of Agriculture has re
suited in material revision Of the GOV
ernments earlier estimates of the vheat
crop. the present estimate Indicating
yield OF $4,000, 600 bushels, Or about
| 100000 bushels more than the autumn
calculations. With wheat selling around
S a bushel, ihe difference is well worth
I taking into account. The wheat mlrSet
was practically una ffected by the Govern
ment's report, as the estimates hitherto
furnished from Washington have not been
accepted as trustworthy.
The stoch market was very firm 70 lay.
London houses bought a fair amount Of
stocks. winch circumstance was effective
in shaping hoardroom sentiment. The
money market was appreciably firmer for
loans on call.
The grangers were the real lea ders of the
day. aud other conspicuous features were
Union IaCific, Metropolitan Street Railway,
Northern Pacific, Peoples Gas and ) lgar
Refining. Manhattan was unsettled in the
early dealings, when its wea akness affected
the whole market, but it fully recovered
its decline in tie afternoon
Consolidated Gas was rather active aud
was weak on selling rea souahly supposed
to be due to the policyof the management in
the attempted disposition Of the compa1y's
treasury stock. Official information in hi,
regard is still wanting. The course Of prices
was marked by only fractional reactions
and the close was firm at about the best
figures Of the day.
