STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Dec 4-The net changes in
stocks from last nights prices shown by
today's last prices give no sort of indica-
ton of the excitement and hurry burly of
the day. In the early part of the day
trading was enormous and the heavy sell
ing practically wiped out the early gains.
The mere fact of the insignificant price
changes in such a volume OF business
points to the large selling TO realize which
was effected. The fact that there was
practically no news to account for me
excitement was confirma;ory of its pro-
fessional character. There was a sharp
upward movement early but hits was
counteracted by the heavy realizing. The
bear fright extended into foreign markets
and London's large buying of United
States Steel preferred was supposed to be
largely due to the uncovered short inter-
est in that stock existing abroad. The
retreat of the bear interest which began
yesterday became a rout today. Many
of the stocks which have already enjoy
ed some measure of recovery from the
depth of depression We're notably outside
of today's movement. The Western and
Pacific stocks were not conspicuous
the southwestern and southern stocks con-
cerned in the cotton movement showed
positive depression. The total dealings
rose above a million shares and this enor
nous business was largely congested in
L S. Steel preferred and in Brooklyn
Transit and Pennsylvania. The shorts in
L., S. Steel preferred believed that the
buying in that stock was for account of
the managers of the recent bond CONVEX
ton syndicate. No specific news devel-
oped to account for the movement which
reached an extreme of 81 in u. 5. Steel
preferred. The stock net gain was 2
enormous but the price movement was
narrow. The extreme rise was q and the
stock closed 4 higher than last night.
The taking of profits here was therefore
very obvious.
The buying of stocks for London ac-
count helped to weaken the exchange
market and both discount and the price
of gold We're lower in London but the
money rate ran o.. in this market so that
no gold was taken in London for New
York. Preliminary estimates indicated
that the amount of currency from the in
terror woul reach 100000. AS the sub
treasury operations have withdrawn from
the banks $4,000 it is expected that the
cash item will show a decrease of a few
hundred thousand dollars. The action
of today's market indica,es good bank
statement.

SENTIMENT BULLISA
Fears Of Damage to Winter
Wheat Had Effect.
CORN AND OATS STRONGER
Provisions Ruled Easy but
firmed up at Close.

Chicago, Dec. 4.-The sentiment was
again extremely bullish in wheat and
trading was on liberal scale. Fears OF
damage to the winter wheat through lack
of moisture were quite general among
traders before the session openeu and on
initial sales May was unchanged to &c
higher at s17sQs17sc. There wasa good
general demand at the start and with only
small offerings the price quickly advanc-
ed to S2isc, then slight reaction occurred
The decline was due TO selling by put
traders who had reason to believe that
the big long was disposing Of part of his
holdings. Selling on the part of the St
Louis houses sided in the set back AT
the decline, however, there was buying
! by commission houses and shorts and the
market again became strong. better
tone In late cables and the bullish Ohio
crop report stimulated buying during the
latter part of the session and the close
was strong. Final figures on May were
S2ssc after the price had touched S2@&c.
Clearances o. wheat ana -four were equal
to 426, 500 bushels. Primary receipts were
1,064 800 bushels. compared with 90S,o90
bushels a year ago. Bradstreet's reported
exports of wheat and flour for the week
of i,20l 900 bushels against 5.5N. 900 bushels
a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and
Chicago had combined receipts of 159 cars
against 1.160 cars last week and $50 cars
a year ago.
There was a further advance in the
price of corn, due largely to sympathy
with wheat and the genoTaI spread of the
bullish sentiment. After opening 1s@Ac
higher at 43q43lsc, May sold between 4sc
and 4324c, closing at 435sa43Ac. Local re-
ceipts were 173 cars withtwo Of contract
grade
largely by the action of wheat and corn.
May opened a shade TO lsG14c higher, at
361a3Sssc, ranged between 36l4 d36asc and
| S67sc, closing at 36asQ36 Local receipts
were 100 cars.
Provisions We're easier early in the day.
due to liberal receipts of hogs and lower
prices at the yards Later the market
firmed up under a good demand credited
to shorts. The strength in grains lent
some support to hog products. Closing
prices We're steady with January pork up
