The stock markets were irregular today.

supplies. All the arbitrage houses are
short of stocks here this morning. Reali-
cations predominate, except perhaps in
Wabash bonds, which were bought by a

the rise in Grand Trunks. The New York
demand for bonds was especially heavy,
notably for Atchison, Erie and Northern
Pacific prior liens and for Reading fours.
Prices of Americans closed firm, with Un-

rise is generally looked for here.

ON 'CHANGE
What Was Done. Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The character of
the buying of the last few days was dis
closed by today's result on the stock ex-
change. The day opened with every APP
pearance of yesterdays sharp demand be-
ing in force. The lower prices from Lon
don were ignored, and large orders placed
on special stocks. which caused sharp adj
vances in the general market. The amount
of commission house buying indicated
considerable awakening of outside inter-
est. The buying of the Changers, Sugar
and Union Pacific was especially bold and
confident, and by the close of the first
hour the market had become very buoyant
and some sharp advances in prices had
been obtained. Then, without any diminu-
ton Of activity, 1t became evident that the
advance in prices had come, and a heavy
realizing movement was in progress When
Sugar fell a point and the general market
showed an actual decline, the market be-
came dull and efforts were made to rally
1t by pushing up the prices of special
stocks. The bears added the pressure of
short sales, and before long had succeeded
In wiping out almost every gain on the
list. Net losses were not large in any spe-
cial case, but the fall in prices from the
high point was marked. The news of the
day was not important in its relation to
the stock market and such as 1t was 1t
was favorable. The forecast Of the presi-
dents message sent out by the Associated
Press had a reassuring effect Relief was
felt over the prospect that Northwestern
railroad rates would soon be restored. Re
ports that an adjustment was probable
between the government and the Union
Pacific reorganization committee over the
Kansas division of the road gave special
strength to Union Pacific and was a sus-
tanning factor to the general market. There
was selling of stocks for London account,
but 1t was without much effect and was
about concluded by the time the reaction
set in in this market.
The market for bonds was broad. active
and strong. Sales for the first hour footed
up to value of over m 'llion and half
dollars. Total sales for the day were $4-
690. 600.
United Safes bonds were steady and un-
changed.

bonds are worthless The company or
the above name was chartered in Michi-
gan in 1872, obtained few miles or right

q few of them and collapsed, the right
of way reverting to the former owners.
The old bonds appear periodically in
different parts OF the country. Within
the last week they have reappeared in
Boston and Chicago, in each case being
rendered as security for loans or unpaid
bills. Not long ago they appeared in
San Diego Cal. The bonds are pretty OF

the unsuspecting they look like good Sc

bonds offered always have the interest

them. The records of the department

Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, Dec. 2-Wheat had a weak
opening, principally because Liverpool fully
reflected the decline of the day before at
Chicago. 1t opened from Is 10 34d. decline.
Paris at the same time was reported some-
what higher for the day. Northwest results
were still too heavy to encourage buying.
The most important consideration for the
time, however, was the hostile attitude
to the market assumed by the heaviest of
the local scalpers. That was important
because Of the almost total absence of
orders to commission houses from outside.
The opening price of May was 90AM3t,,c,
a decline of Ac from yesterday. 1t de-
clined to 90c before 1t showed any signs
of Improvement. December was weak,
opening &c lower at 961sc and declining to
$3.50, with hardly sign of support.
The Atlantic port clearances in wheat
and flour amounted to $4,000 bushels, 49,
600 bushels of which was in the shape of
wheat The primary market receipts were
for the first day In some months substan
tally below the 100000 bushel mark. the
quantity for the day before being $4,000
bushels but for last year the total was only
425, COO bushels. A cablegram from Argen-
tine was reported as saying that crop
prospects We're less favorable. but another
was received stating that the harvest in
the more northern sections of tho country
was progressing favorably. A temporary
squirt was caused by the heaviness of the
Atlantic port clearances of wheat and
-four and the much smaller total in the
western primary market receipts than the
recent averages. and May advanced on this
to 9O5sc But local bears soon disposed of
the large clearances by the claim that they
would swamp the people they were going
to. A report from Minneapolis to the ef-
feet that the yards there were filing up
with cars which would be loaded with
wheat for Chicago caused great weakness
late in the day, May selling as low as s91s.
New York's report of fifty boatloads for
export and some helping December bulls
caused a reaction to 90c near the close.
May wound up at S97sM90c. December
however got no support, and closed 1hc
lower, at 95c.
Corn was moro active and very weak
closing at 1ac decline.
