Chicago, Dec. 12.-Wheat had a weak tone to-
| day, but it as weak as it occas. onally

| May only Ac down. Heavier movement of corn
caused Nc decline, and oats lost asc of its pre-
vious value for December and &c for May. Pack

of the products, and succeeded in disIodging some
of the least insstent. January pork the chief
point of attack. At the close it down 2Oc. and
at one time showed SC greater decline.
The wheat market opened quietly but much
weaker than at yesterdays close. The weakness
attributed to better news from Argentina. the
damage the crop there by recent rains being
slight Lower prices at Liverpool also helped to
make the situation here bearish. Tired holders
sold out. Late in the day Armour brokers bid up
the prices OF December wheat in an effort to rally
the market. Local receipts were 81 Estimate

Fine weather IN country and heavier arrivals than

There was a fair trade in provisions, with prices
showing a downward tendency. Some of the hold

STANDARD OIL ACTIONS.
Mr.. Rockefeller Expected to accept
Service of Subpoena.

Henry woIlman of No 20 Broadway. who will
act with Attorney General Hadley, of Missouri. in
the suits brought against the Standard OIL Com
many bv the State Missouri, said yesterday that
subpunas had been served upon James A. Moffatt,
one Of the executive committee OF the company,
and Frank @. Barstow and Howard Page who are
high officials of either the Standard oil Company
or Of some OF their allied corporations.
AS told in The Tribune yesterday, Henry II.
Rogers has been served with a subpoena, Rs has
John D. Archbold. According TO Mr.. wollman.
his Office on January to give their dispositions.
I'VE are having some little difficulty said Mr..
Wollman ''in serving some OF the others with SUBJ
poenas. but by January all Of them who are In
the State Of New-York Will be served"
When Mr. WollTnan asked II he thought he
would be able to serve a subpoena upon John D.
Rockefeller in this State. he said:
Il do, but in should not succeed by Jan
uary 5, L understand that Attorney General Hadley
Will give notice to take Mr.. Rockefeers deposition
in Virginia New-Jersey, wherever Mr.. Rookie
Teller happens to be; meanwhile, the proceedings
here will be kept alive You know I have never
made the statment that Mr. Rockefeller Is endeav-
oring evade the service of subpoena upon him,
do l wish to be understood in any way as
making that statement now, or intimating any
thing to that effect"
It was the general opinion In Wall Street, and
among the men who are closely associated with the
affairs of John D. Rockefeller, yesterday, that Mt
soon come home and take steps to accept the ser
vice The general belief is that this course is taken
sion of connection between the Standard Oil Com
pany of New-Jersey, the parent company here, and
the subsidiary company and companies that are
owing to the postponement OF the Standard Oil
proceedings in this State from December to Jan
uary s. orders of subpoena had TO be obtained
from Justice Slower.

INDUSTRIAL SHARES ADVANCE.
COPPER, LEAD AND STEEL ISSUES ACTl


stocks will sell higher before the inevitable crash
takes place, and there are many good reasons
for the theory that despite the great appTecta-
ton that already has taken place in many OF
the high grade issues these shares will sell at
better figures before the end of the calendar
year. There are so many favorable factors In
the general situation affecting the intrinsic value
of securities that 1t requires unusual courage to
sell stocks short at this period; but it is inter
esting to note that there are a few traders who
are now willing to go on record favoring the
bear side of speculation for the long pull Opera
lions of this character, however, do not worry
the larger speculative interests who are backing
the bull trading, and it is quite apparent that
the only thing which would change the attitude
of the latter interests would be distinct change
in conditions underlying the nations industrial
activities There is no sign of coming depression
in the country's business, but the people who be-
lieve in cycles of depression and prosperity are
beginning to predict change for the worse in
the position of industrial affairs in the United
States, basing their arguments the aid time
theory of years of plenty followed by years of
famine. There may be a famine some day. but
it looks as if current holders of securities would
be able to secure their profits before such a day
develops From Wall Street point of view it
does not pay to go against the tide, and at the
moment the Wall Street current is moving in the
direction of higher stock market values.

Two Miles of Films.

All records for the coast of obtain
ing a copyright have been broken by
the motion picture films of the Britt
Nelson battle, which have just been
placed in the mail. To get the gov
ernment's protection for these photo
graphs it was necessary to make two
complete films of the whole fight to
be sent to Washington. The cost of
each film was $3.50, or $500 for the
two. and all this investment will be
forever locked up in the archives of
the government. The two films
stretched out from end to end meas
ured upward of 10000 feet, or a little
less than two miles. In each film
there are $4,000 separate photographs,
or 10000 in all
