PRICES TUMBLE
IN FINAL HOUR

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Apart
from its fairly firm undertone the
greater part of the session. the
course of today's stock market
was unimpOrtant. Trading was
llght and again confined to the
better known speculative leaders.
he market opened irregular,
with pronounced weakness in the
Hartman issues. United States
steel and the other metal issues.
Following its general recovery in
a movement led by the coal stocks
the list held fairly well until the
final hour, when reports of an
other meeting Of the steel and
iron interests and advices from
Chicago, stating that a large ma
Jority of the engineers employed
on the western roads had voted to
strike, sent prices of active issues
to the lowest level of the day
and caused a weak closing.
The grain movement in the
west continues to be of moderate
receipts at Chicago. amounting 10
100000 bushels. is an increase
of almost 1.100.00 bushels over
the previous week. The western
money market shows greater
ease. but this tendency is attrib-
uted to decreasing business in
many lines. Keen competition
for the $3,500. 900 South African
gold received In London resulted
in an advance of sc. with diVi-
sion of the metal, s1.500,00 going
to Berlin, the balance being
equally distributed between the
Bank of England and India. There
was no open American demand for
the gold, despite recent rumors to
that effect
Domestic exports for November
showed fairly large increases in
-1, .r.r., n a n
an extraordinary falling off in
wheat. Shipments of this cereal
were more than 10000 600 bushels
below November. 1903. Total eX-
ports of feedstuffs for the II
months of the calendar year are
less by over $50. 900 900 than in
the corresponding period last
year.
The bond market was easy.
Total sales par value $2,20700O.
United States bonds were steady.
