SHORT STORIES OF THE CITY
Examining NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Frederick Jones of Los Angeles,
United States naturalization examiner
for the department of justice in this
district, was busy in the Office of Clerk
of Court smalley yesterday, looking
over list of twenty-six applications
for naturalization. The government
has grown exceedingly careful as to
how naturalization papers are granted,
these days, but the increased difficulty
in obtaining citizenship has only had
the effect of increasing the number of
naturalzations of the better classes of
aliens of all nations. Mr.. Jones said
yesterday that he did not think. there
would be any trouble about the admis-
son of any OF the local applicants for
American citizenship.

price from the point of profit on gold
shipments. 1t was denied that al
lowance of interest on the shipment
while in transit by the Bank of
France figured in the transaction.
Bankers estimate that the movement
may run to 100000 or $4,000, 900.
The Unsuitable demands of the Bank
of France for gold in face of an I'M
precedented volume of holdings arouse
no little wonder amongst bankers. It
is believed that uninterrupted selling
of American securities by foreigners
is the dominating cause of the move
ment.
The call loan rate was affected to-
day although in slight degree Sub
treasury operations took $22640 900 from
the banks on account of return of
government deposits called for last
week by the secretary. Yesterdays an
nouncement of the sale of $50 900, 600 of
American Telephone bonds was sup
plemented by the report of the coming
issue of $20,0O0.0O0 United States Rub
Der bonds. Next Saturday bids are to
be submitted for the $40 900 900 Pan
anna canal bonds Some impression
was made by the reports of growing
rancor in a dispute between the Penn
sylvania railroad and it's locomotive en-
gineers. especially as a statement put
out yesterday indicated a mood of prep
aration on the part of the anthracite
interests for trouble with the expira-
ton of the present wage agreement
next April.
The irregular liquidation which has
been in progress for several days past
probably was prompted in varying de-
gree by all of these motives. 1t proceeded
to an extent that brought relief during
the course of today's dealings and opened
the way for a considerable recovery. The
cessation of the pressure on United States
Steel and on some other prominent stocks
was of more influence in bringing this
about than the more sensational advances
IL a group of specialties. Rock Island
pi eferred was conspicuous in this class
its volatile rise being unexplained by any
news bearing on the property. The 2h
per cent for call loans touched today has
not been equalled since the second week
In September, when the sharp break In
prices of stocks caused furry in rates.
The market closed in considerable I'M
settlement.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $7.722, 000
United States bonds were unchanged on

COTTON MARKET
AGAIN DECLINES
Moderate Support Is Given In
Face of Selling
WALL STREET BUYS FREELY
Bear Pressure Is Checked Before the
Drop Becomes Marked and Under
Covering BY Shorts Prices
Are Barely Steady.

New York. December 1.-The cotton
market received moderate support today
and recovered part of an early loss, clos
ing barely steady at a net decline of l to
points. Sales were estimated at 100000
bales
The market opened steady at a decline
of to 4 points and sold to points net
lower during the early session in response
to easier cables and a renewal of yes
terday's bear pressure End liquidation.
But Wall street bulls seemed more in
clinee to buy than had been the case
on the break of the previous day and
several prominent brokers appeared
around the ring with large supporting
orders The demand from this source
checked the decline and shortly after
midday the active months sold q point
or two net higher on covering by local
shorts and scattered commission house
buying. Later, however, offerings in
creased and there appeared to be some
foreign selling, which may have been
due to less favorable reports concerning
the European political situation, and the
close was 3 or points off from the top.
Southern spot advices were conflicting
with the markets officially reported I'M
changed to &c lower.
Interior receipts for the half week were
under estimates, and estimates for tomor-
rows receipts at leading points were
lighter, many attributing the smaller
figures to slaekening of spot demand
following the completion of November en-
gagements.
Receipts at the ports today los, O93 bales
against 104,S4S last week and S4,9S1 last
year. For the week 425,O0O bales, against

NEW HIGH RECORDS
IN WHEAT MARKET
Unfavorable News from Ar, en-
tina Causes the Upturn
MOVEMENT is INCREASED
General Selling In the, Corn Market
Weakens Prices, Causing a Decline
of I Cent-oats Are Easy.
Provisions Firm.

Chicago, December New high rec
ord marks for the season for the De-
cember and May deliveries were reached
in the local wheat market when the for
mer touched S1.0514 and the latter S1.095s
The market closed strong at the top. Corn
and oats closed easy and provisions
firm.
The wheat market opened strong with
prices up Ac to 5s424c and became strong
er as trading progressed, the close be-
ing at the highest point of the day
and at a net gain of 9sqAc for De-
cember and 11sc for May. The most
important factors contributing to the
sharp upturn were unfavorable harvest
ing weather in Argentina and a decided
falling off in receipts in this country,
especially in the northwest. Several dis
patches We're received today claiming that
rain still prevailed in northern districts
of Argentina. The decreased movement in
the northwest was perhaps the most inn
portant influence. A severe blizzard which
was raging today in the Canadian north
west was said to have checked the move
ment to some extent but the chief rea-
son for the sudden falling off in receipts
was said to be the fact that the great
bulk of the crop has already been mar
keted.
A brisk export demand for durum and
low grade Manitoba wheat at Duluth
helped to strengthen the locol market.
Local bulls were liberal purchasers of the
December delivery, one of the leaders,
it was said, having bought in the neigh
borhood of 100000 bushels. There was
practically no demand for cash wheat
here except by elevator concerns.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re-
ported receipts of 694 cars against 972
last week and 1898 cars a year ago.
Liquidation of the December delivery
was the feature of the trade in the corn
market. This selling caused a decline of
nearly lie in that delivery and had a
weakening effect on the market in gem
eral. A cold wave in the corn belt and
a continued slack demand for the cash
grain by shippers were additional weak
ening influences. At the sample tables
demand was reported slow and offerings
liberal which resulted in a decline of
cember contracts were 100000 bushels. The
market closed easy with prices 1sqAc
higher to as@14c lower, December closing
at 617@62c and May at 627sc. Local re-
ceipts were 43O cars with six of contract
grade.
Oats were inclined to be easy owing
to profit taking in the December option
following deliveries of 225,0O0 bushels on
December contracts. slow demand by
shippers for me cash grain helped to
depress prices. The market closed easy
with prices a shade higher to A@Ssc low
er. Local receipts were 261 cars.
Provisions were firm owing to strong
market for live hogs and because of
small deliveries on December contracts.
Trade, however, was quiet the greater
part of the day At the close prices were
712Q10c to 121a@15c higher.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow
Wheat SO cars, corn 155 cars, oats 107 cars,
hogs 3S, 600 head.

ENGINEERS TAKE
VOTE ON STRIKE

Washington, December IA serious
controversy has arisen between the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers and the
Pennsylvania railroad, affecting particu-
larly the lines west of Pittsburg. The
details of the difference between the mem
bership of the order and the railway COM
pany were presented today by Chairman
Knapp of the interstate commerce COM
mission and Charles P. Neal commission
er of labor, who constitute the general
board of mediation under the Erdman
act.
The engineers desire official recognition
of their general board of adjustment in
the settlement of any grievances that
may exist between the members of the
order and the railroad commission. The
men complain that when they take up
grievances with the division superintend-
ents they get no satisfaction and as a
rule their complaints come to naught
So serious has the difficulty become
that a strike vote now is being taken
by the engineers of the lines west OF
Pittsburg. With a view to averting the
impending trouble, the members of the
general board of adjustment of the order.
headed by Grand Chief Warren s. Stone
and Assistant Grand Chief Fred A. Bur-
CESS, came to Washington to lay their
case before the board of mediation.
The committees conference with Chair
man Knapp and Commissioner Neal lasted
about two hours. Following this confer
ence, General Manager Peck of the Penn
sylvania lines west of Pittsburg pre-
scented to the board OF mediation the rail-
way side of the controversy.
Neither the members of the board OF
mediation nor the engineers were at lib
erty to make the details of the conference
public at this time.

Hubbard Bros. g. Co.'s Letter.

New York, December Especial -Div-
erpool is impressed by the weakness In
the southern markets as that market is
feeling the weight of the offers from
their buyers throughout the south. Lo-
cally the opening prices were about the
lowest, the liquidation for Wall street ac-
count ceasing the moment support APP
peared from those who sold on the ad-
vance of last week.
A rally followed with an easier clos
ing but with no feature worthy of note,
excepting further declines in the south
ern market quotations. This condition in
the south is not encouraging to the many
persons in the west and north who have
bought cotton, expecting the south would
not press their cotton for SALE
The close was fairly steady and calls
for an unchanged market in Liverpool
tomorrow.
