What Was Done Yesterday on Wall

NEW YORK, Nov 2s-Today's market
for stocks was a reversal Of yesterdays
and presented nothing but the operations
of room traders, outside Of q few stocks.
The list generally showed some net gain
on the covering of the short contracts made
yesterday. There was q continuance of the
strength shown yesterday In the Northern
Pacific stocks, especially in the preferred,
which rose III by the close Of the day.
Metropolitan Street Railway and the Rub
ber stocks also displayed strength and
gained over point. The strength of the
Rubber stock was due to the rumors of a
proposed absorption of competing COM
pany. Consolidated Gas was notably weak
all day. 1t showed an extreme decline of
61s points, but recovered part OF this.
Brooklyn Union Gas lost point In sympa-
thy, The stocks of the American Spirits
company showed extreme weakness on the
reports OF the demoralixed condition Of the

cent. Both stocks rallied. but very feebly.
The Coalers also inclined to weakness,
though they showed some recovery from
the lowest. There was some selling OF

CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterday's Transactions on the Board
Of Trade


Of Trade
CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-It needed constant
effort on the part Of pit traders to keep
any life in the wheat trade. and business
was seldom smaller than 1t ruled today.
The market showed some degree Of ac-
tivity at the opening Liverpool opened
Nd. higher for Liverpool wheat. and Nd
up for futures. Private cables explained
that the Liverpool strength was on reports
of Argentine crop damage. Still other ca
Bile messages said the Englsh strength
was due to increased milling demand, buy
ing Of cargoes by the continent and Ar
gentine reumors The Liverpool close was
posted at N@1Ad. higher. In fact the ca
bles were SO very stiff that the trade dis
credited the strength claimed, and talk of
manipulation from this side found believ-
ers. The Liverpool opening strength was,
however. responsible for the adv &c at the
start here May, which closed at yDs cents,
opened at from 91M to 91M, against 1s
cents, and December showed a similar ad-
vance. The Northwestern receipts were,
however, too heavy to permit the devel-
opment of any enthusiasm on account of
the reduction In Argentine prospects. Min
neapolis and Duluth received 1906 cars,
against 1473 week ago. but compared with
b62 the corresponding day Of the year be-
fore. The net effect Of the news was to
|
the disposal of any great quantity of long
wheat at the advance. Fresh buyers at
the Improvement were likewise scarce. In
frequent fluctuations In a narrow range
was a consequence of the mutual timidity
of buyers and sellers. The export clear
ances OF wheat and flour were equal to
100000 bushels. Bradstreet's visible supply
statement reported an increase In this
country east of the Rockies of 626 900 bush
els an an increase in af1oat for Europe
of 2.600, 900 bushels, total addition to the
worlds stocks of 3.2960OO bushels. The
acceptance of thirteen boatloads of SAM
pie spring wheat offered by local firm
to Liverpool the night before was reported
early In the day, and five boatloads In ad-
dition were sold for shipment later.
New York reported fair export inquiry,
and twenty-five boatloads were worked for
export there and reported half an hour
from the close. The fly in the ointment of
the bull situation was as before-the heavy
northwestern receipts At primary west
ern markets 1,l26O00 bushels came to hand,
compared with only 467.6O0 bushels In the
corresponding day last year. May sold
down to 90A during the morning, but slow
ly recovered and sold firm at 911 cents.
Corn was dull and without particular
interest. Elevator people sold and prices
suffered little at times, though showing
hardly any change at the close.
Outside of moderate amount of chang
ing over of December, there was little done
in oats. This depressed the former price
and held the latter steady.
A very light business was done in pro-
visions. Heavy receipts of hogs here and
at western markets gave the market a
downward tendency at the opening, and
the market inclined that way all day
The leading futures closed as follows:
