|OVANCES MADE
 IN STOCK MARKET |edlction of Bank of England
 Rate Aids the Markets REMAND IS SCATTERING
Tany Stocks Not Usually Prominent Are Favorably Affected By the Strength of Sentiment and
 All Issues Are Helped.

New York, December 1.-The reduction
 n the Bank of England discount rate
 today had a strengthening effect on the
 Securities market in all the great finan- |tial centers The action came as a sur- prise, as the conditions which prompted
 have been in existence for several weeks past without influencing the gov .ernors to recede from their position. The Iopen discount rate in London has been In the nelghborhood of 1 per cent below lthe bank rate for some time and this dis Icrepancy would ordinarily exclude the Bank of England from sharing in bank ling profits which is function of the in- Istitution in conjunction with its larger Eic offices. It measures to force up the honey rate and attract gold to London nave been at the cost of profitable share lin banking business for the time. It fwas supposed that the high bank rate
 would be retained at least until the [turn of the year In order that the re- 3qurement of the money market for the yearly settlements might be made to Yield return that would coup the bank flor it's costly services in safeguarding lthe central banking reserve.
 I The reduction in the rate serves as a notice to the financial world that safe |guarding measures had been more than sufficient. The exigences of the British budget rejection have proved less evil dently than was anticipated. The redue- ton of the rate came in spite of ad- ditional large withdrawals from the bank for shipment to South America.
 Further engagements were made here also for shipment to South America on London account The question presents itself how far the diminished require fnents of the London money market may be due to q halt in trade activity. The general effect of the lower bank rate
 was cheering to financial markets and
 WAS a prime factor in the strength of
 the New York stock market.
 The demand which carried prices up- ward was somewhat desultory and spot
 ty in character. Many stocks not usual 1y prominent and including considerable iist of low priced issues were impressed
 in the movement. Hopeful views were
 still heard about the stock market of
 the prospects for political action at
 Washington and the discussion of de-
 mands for higher wages from various
 quarters in the railroad world seemed
 to be carried on without damage to
 values.
 A rise in Pennsylvania calls attention
 to the fact that subscriptions to the

 Months But Others
 Show Decline.

New York December 9.-The cotton market was called upon to absorb some heavy realizing sales today. and prices show irregularity in consequence with the tone rather nervous toward the close. There was no actual weakness, however, and the volume of fresh buying suggested quite general confidence in a bullish bu- reau report tomorrow. The close was steady, net s points lower to 15 points higher. the late positions which have been selling at a big discount being rela- lively firm on bull support
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of to 10 points on a. continua- tion of the outside buying movement created by yesterdays bullish census re- port and which had the further encour- agement of strong Liverpool market, particularly with reference to the spot situation-larger sales suggesting that the bullish census figures had made an i'm pression on foreign spinners. Offerings. however, were exceedingly heavy on the initial advance and it was made quite apparent that some of the bigger Of the old bulls were again taking profits on a free scale. These offerings were very well absorbed but prices which had made new high records for the session on the spflIS ATQ laIeF nlOHtHS BfdQudIy eHSeti off and toward the close became rather easier with the market showing increas- ing nervousness on the nearer approach of the government estimate The close was from 1 to points lower on near positions, while the late positions were sustained by covering and bull support based upon their relative cheapness as compared with nearer positions.
 The government estimate which will be published at 2 o'clock tomorrow is the subject of widespread interest, judging from the large number of visitors al- ready reaching the city. Estimates as to the probable showing of the report range from a little under 10000 GOO bales to about 1o,50o,000 The report when issued will compare with commercial crop last year of about 13S0o,000 bales and the total gin- ming last year of 13,os6,000 bales.
 Receipts at the ports today, 26,5S2 bales, against 1S545 last week. and 5e,389 last year. For the week. 150,o00 bales against 2l4,620 last week, and 412,6S7 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans, 1464 bales, against 7765 last year.

DECEMBER WHEAT
 GOES UP RAPIDLY Small Primary Receipts Cause
 of the Advance NEARLY ALL GAINS LOST  Trading in Corn Is Active and Prices 
Trading in Corn Is Active and Prices Are Strong With Close a Frac-
 ton Hiaher-Oats Firm
 and Provisions Strong.

Chicago, December 9.-Wheat for deliy- cry in December advanced to s1 .1oss here today during a session marked by con- siderable bullish enthusiasm. The mar ket, however, failed to maintain the gain, and at the close prices were shade lower to ssc higher than the previous close. Corn and oats closed firm and provisions strong.
 bulge of nearly 2 cents in the price of the December delivery was the feature of trading in wheat. Small receipts at all primary points and high premiums being paid for the cash grain at the leading grain centers of the country contributed to a large extent to the urgent demand for the current month The market opened firm with prices unchanged to asc higher with December at S1.0e to $1 .o9as and May at s1 .0sq1 .oSsa. Persistent efforts of shorts in the December option to cover gradually forced prices up until the current month touched $1.10ss. May in the meantime advanced to N.08a Late in the session, however. several leading commission houses took advantage of the big bulge in December to sell May, and this caused recessions all around. The market closed about steady, with December at $109s4 and May at S1.0SA.
 Activity and strength characterized the trading in corn. Likelihood of big in crease in consumption of corn on the farms for feeding purposes owing to the wintry weather now prevailing caused shorts to cover freely. An advance of F cent in the price of cash corn also stimulated demand for futures. The close was firm with prices shade to asd1z cent higher.
 Exceedingly light receipts inspired ac- tive demand for oats today.
 Cash oats were from 1s to cent higher at the sample tables. The market closed firm with prices 1s to E cent above last nights close.
 Provisions were strong all day because of the continuance of abnormally light receipts of live hogs throughout the west. Prices at the close showed net gains of 71a to 9 cents.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, December e.-(Special)- From the opening advance. based on the good Liverpool advices, there was con- tinued stream of realizing by parties, large and small, taking profits before the publication of the government estimate of the crop tomorrow afternoon.
 The resumption of telegraphic commun- ication with the west, which was lacking yesterday added to the volume of this selling which finally carried prices some 5 to points below last evening. As usual before the publication of a government crop estimate, the market is very ner- vous over the possibilities as shown by the course of prices yesterday and today.
 The realizing of this afternoon by the west was based on the theory that the es- innate might be large one, therefore it was best to take profits before the re- port.
 Liverpool should be points lower to- morrow.
