these stocks reacted on profit taking. New
York Central sold with the rights to sub
scribe to the new stock issue deducted
from the price. There were sales of these
rights at from 47s@512. Union Pacific and
Northern Pacific showed some strength
and there was an attempt to advance
some of the iron and steel stocks which
proved only partly successful. Some of
the prominent specialties suffered from
bear pressure, notably Sugar, Brooklyn
Transit and the other New York Traction
stocks and the Tobacco stocks.
Conditions in the money market were
responsible for the dullness in the stock
market. The advance in the Bank of
England rate to per cent was not I'M
expected, but was confirmation Of q els
agreeable condition from a stock mar
ket point Of view. The notification of the
Bank of England's policy to hold control
of the open money market for the purpose
Of keeping up rates, SO as to attract funds
to London for the future needs of that
market including the coming annual set
Element and the government requirements
for the South African war expenditures.
Sterling exchange both here and in Paris
hardened in response to the conditions in
London, where, however, the money rate
reacted slightly from yesterdays level
The rate for money in New York did not
rise above per cent.
Preliminary estimates make it evident
that tomorroW's bank statement will re-
fleet still further Improvement in the
condition of the banks, but the gain re-
sources will come wholly from the sub
treasury operations, on which account the
banks have gained $2,99O,000, including
bond redemptions and receipts on account
of gold deposited at interior points. On
the interior money movement by express,
on the other hand, the banks have sus-
tained a net loss Of over 100000. Receipts
from the interior have fallen off over
100000, while the shipments to the In
terror have Increased nearly $20O,0OO. The
net gain on last weeks movement hao
aroused hopes that the long expected re-
fiux of funds to this center had at last
set in, but this weeks figures show that
the interior demand is still unsatisf1ed.
The bond market was quiet and prices
were shaded in the majority of issues.
Total sales, par value, $1,94O,OOO. United
States bonds were unchanged in the bid
quotations.

CHICAGO, Dec. Wheat depressed by
a poor cash demand and a bearish Mod
ern Miller report, closed weak, &c off
from Wednesdays close. Corn weaken
ed with wheat, closing sc lower. Oats
closed &c lower. Provisions closed a
trihe higher.
At the opening today wheat derived
bit Of steadiness from the light deliveries
for the contract article, about $50 600
bushels, the strength of Minneapolis and
reported damages from fly in Michigan.
May opened a shade over Wednesday at
6934Q697sc, and early touched Zoe Bust
ness was stagnant and the market turned
speedily weak upon the receipt of a dis
COuraging Modern Miller report, and the
lack of outside demand. The -four trade
was reported anything but satisfactory.
The weather was good for fall-planted
crops, and the frost was said to have kill
ed the Hessian fly. The slump thus started
was boosted along, as many stop orders
were touched, thus bringing considerable
long wheat on the market. May sagged
down to 6S75G69c, closing &c lower at
CSC. The failure Of McCord & Co. in
New York had little effect here.
Clearances We're 322, 600 bushels Local
receipts were 20 cars, Is grading contract;
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 929 cars,
against 40 last week, and 1,1S9 a year
ago. Primary receipts were 1,166, 400,
compared with 1882, 500 last year. New
York reported S loads taken for ex-
port.
Corn early was steady on alleged bull
ash weather and light receipts, but turned
weak, depressed by the heaviness of
wheat, and to a degree by the McCord
failure. Deliveries, in view on the small
stocks, were liberal, at about 100000
bushels. Local receipts were 235 cars.
Clearances were $4,000 bushels; primary
receipts, 1872, 400 bushels. May sold from
S2Ac 10 3Z%4c, closing 3sc down at 32Ac.
Trade was slow.
Oats yielded with corn. Trade was
light, and the May range only 14c. De-
liveries were 100000 bushels, a small
amount, which indicates let up of the
demand. Western offerings were limited,
but the seaboard demand was poor.
Clearances, 157, coo; receipts here, 266
cars. May ranged from 1874 to 24c, clos
ing 14c down at 1886
Provisions We're steady, supported by
g light supply Of hogs, higher hog prices
and a good demand from products. Of
ferings were small The market was
duh and fluctuations were narrow. May
pork closed $9.571a; may lard, 5000
5.32I2; May ribs, $50.
Estimates tomorrow: Wheat, so cars;
