BOARD ROOM TRADERS
Kept the Stock Market Ratified
Yesterday.
GAINS AND LOSSES MIXED
No .UneaSiness Over Money
and no Pressure to Sell.
GAINS AND LOSSES MIXED

New York. Dec 2S.-The changes in
prices today were largely due to opera
tions by board room traders. The erratic
fluctuations in the market reflected the
uncertainty OF this class of spectators.
They sold the market at the opening on
the lower prices from London. The sub
stantial character of the buying demand.
which they met, and the consequent re-
fusal OF the market to go down, caused
them to turn to the long side. The highly
mercurial specialties were the favorites
in the dealings and some of them were
bid up in q rather sensational manner.
Metropolitan Street Railway, Sugar and
Brooklyn Rapid Transit were the most
conspicuous features of the market all
day. The rise il these was so cOnsidera-
Bile as to invite the realizing of profits
towards the closing of the day. This
caused the market TO run OF, at the cost
OF large part of the earlier game. The
November statement of st. PauIs earn
ings, showing the increase in the gross
earnings more than wiped out. with a re-
sulting decrease in the net return, of over
$40, COO had a marked effect on the rail-
road list, which declined sharply through
out. The fall from the top level in St
Paul was 15sc and reached a point in
number of other railroad stocks The
consequence was a mixture of net gains
and losses, although the market hardened
in the final dealings on a demand from
the shorts to cover their contracts. While
the movement of prices was largely due
to professional manipulation, there was
good volume of business representing a
continuance of substantial demand from
outside sources through commission
houses. The demand for small lots of
stocks continued in evidence. and espe-
cially on any recessionS in prices. There
was no evidence of uneasiness over the
money situation, and no pressure to sell
stocks. Although prices were lower,
there was no evidence of any fear Of dis
trust at that point with the progress of
the settlement. The money situation in
New York continued easy and confidence
is felt that the short remaining period be-
fore the close of the year twill be COM
fortably tided over. Some corporations
are anticipating the January first pay
ments. Money is coming to New York
from out of town sources. partly in the
form of returns on Christmas trade to be
deposited in the banks, partly In the form
of remittances to make good losses on
stocks in the late decline and partly for
investment in new accounts in the stock
market The special pressure for funds
from Boston has relaxed and New York
exchange at that center rose n par The
shipments of gold announced for Satur-
day had little effect on sentiment. owing
to the feeling that forces are at work to
offset this drain. Closing prices of stocks

WHEAT MARKET DOWN
On LiverpooI's Decline and
Good Crop Reports,
CORN AT A SHADE GAIN
Oats Up a Little Provisions
Unchanged TO Higher.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-Wheat today felt the
effect of the Liverpool decline and rather
favorable crop news, May closing 80
Nc under yesterday. Small receipts and
light country offerings were a support to
the corn market, May closing at a shade
gain. Oats closed a shade up and pro-
visions unchanged to 21zc better.
Wheat weakened over night, opening
Aqasc under yesterdays close at 69HG
&c. In the face of the advance here the
previous session at Liverpool showed a
loss; the flour business was reported any,
thing but satisfactory and such crop
news as was not favorable was not enough
the other way to buoy up the bull posi-
ton. The pit was dun and listiess
throughout the price clinging around put
figures, a condition which naturally en-
couraged some buying. This, with lit
tie covering by shorts, saved the market
from further loss, even adding a shade to
initial figures towards the end of the ses-
sion, May closing 1sqAc lower at $3.50.
New York reported only five loads taken
for export, this business being fat. Sea-
board clearances in wheat and -four were
equal to 900 bushels Primary receipts
were 4SS,500 bushels against $4,000 a year
ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 279
cars compared with $50 last week and 49,
the corresponding day last year Re-
ceipts here were 81 cars, ten of contract
Grade.
Corn was rather steady and especially
for May, this option closing with some
appearance of f1rmness. The weakness of
wheat actuated some selling early, 100000
bushels by one firm, it was rumored.
GOn1auhaf frpar off IN tn
fluenced rather free liquidation by longs
for time but this influence was offset
by light offerings elsewhere and the small
receipts-1l6 cars here. Buying against
puts was also a support. Trade was very
quiet all day and fluctuations were mar
row. Many sold from 1925 to 32a4 67sc,
closing shade up at 32s4d7sc.
Oats were a lifeless market Prices
slipped off a trifie but the export de-
mand was dead and country offerings re-
ported enlarging. Local receipts were 1872
cars and clearances 5000 bushels. Ranged
from 231a to 235sq24c, closing a shade up
at 239s6&c. The closing steadiness was
due to sympathy with corn. Provisions
were steady though even dulled than yes
terday. Small receipts and better prices
at the yards were strengthening factors in
the market. On the rally at the opening
longs took profits to a sufficient extent 10
temper the bullish tendency of other inter
ests. May pork ranged from SO AN to
sl0.5719, closing unchanged at so. AZ; May
lard from s5.S0fS21A to S.. IS with the close
PIC up at S.S212, and May ribs from
IS. 521a TO s5.5712 and closed 2Iac up at
s. 62!EQ5.55.
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat.
I25 cars; corn, go; oats, 135; hogs, 10000
head.

HOGS STILL HIGHER
Bulk Prices Higher Here Than
in Kansas City.
TOP PRICE WAS S4.15
Cattle Market Was Firm and
Steady.

There was another red light day at the
Wichita hog market yesterday. This,
however, is such an usual occurrence now
that not near as much attention is paid
10 it as formerly. The receipts were light,
indeed far short of what they should have
been and four times the number received
would have been sold at top prices had
they come in. The top price Of the day
was S4.l5 while the bulk of the sales was
at s4.1214Q4.15 Is. The market was quoted
as a fiat cents higher. There were no
soft spots in the market and at advance
was maintained during the day.
The market here was on an exact par
with Kansas City. The report received
from Kansas City stated the market as
being steady to 215 cents higher. The
bulk Of sales was placed at "a. 10g4. II.
The bulk of sales in this city was at
F4.21sg4.lo, this giving a higher bulk If
anything than the one quoted in Kan
sas City as the Iatters range was
ior@er.
The quality Of the hogs received yester-
day was fair to good. There We're some
good packers brought in and they were
EASILY disposed of at the top figures. The
average weight OF the hogs placed on the
market was 24S pounds.
The Wichita market is daily proving it's
elf to be the best in the west, especially
for shippers Of this state, Oklahoma and
Indian Territory. The prices paid are
nigh and realize the shipper much more
than he could make by going to any
other market. 1t has been estimated by
men thoroughly acquainted with the bust
ness that the Wichita market is so much
better than Kansas City and ST. Louis
that the shipper OF this section makes
from S25 to $40 car by selling his hogs
here. That this is a generally accepted
statement is proven by the increased
shipments from points from which for
merly few hogs were sent to this mar
ket.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1899-12-29

Colonel Hamilton Of Orlando was an
Oklahoma shipper on the market yester-
day. Colonel Hamilton received a good
bulk figure for his hogs which were a
good lot.
Major Walker was in from sedgwick
last evening with good car of hogs
which he disposed of for good figure.
n. DeMarr of Belle PLANE, was on the
market yesterday with cattle. He dis
