IRREGULAR CLOSE
 IN WHEAT MARKET
Wet Weather in the Southwest
 Cuts Down Prices
SELLING VERY LIBERAL
FIurry fin Corn Forces Shorts to Cover But at the Close the Gain Is Small. Oats Are Lower and Proyis-
 ions Are Higher

Chicago, December 5.-Snow or rain throughout the sections of the southwest where moisture has been lacking eased off the price of wheat today. The mar kct closed AQssc down to a shade up. Latest figures for corn were unchanged to 14c higher and oats were Hdl4c off. In provisions the outcome was a rise of 171ke to soc
 An ample supply of wheat swas on sale all day. Supplementing the effect of the break in the drought domestic statistics were bearish. A liberal increase in pri- mary receipts counted some against val ues. There was also a big increase in the visible supply. Offsetting to a consldera- ble extent such influence, worlds ship ments showed fall and so did supplies on ocean passage.
 A live fury in corn forced shorts to cover Proft-talxing by longs led to a reaction. Lightness of country sales was the basis of the bulge. May fluctuated between 4S9sc and 499sc, closing at 4s94c. the same as Saturday, but with the tone firm. Cash corn was steady. No. yell low finished 8 t 520153c.
 Oats were higher early, with corn, but lost the advance later. There was some indication that the most urgent of the shorts had covered May varied from S4s4c to 35Ssc, with last sales 7sqhc off at 39%Q35c.
 Provisions developed decided strength on good commission demand. in addition to fairly important buying on the part of western packer. Pork wound up with an advance of 17Ac to an even half dol- lar, lard 171sc up, and ribs 27kG321sc higher.

SMALL GAINS MADE

ports Are Expected to Forecast Small Crop for the Pres
 ent Season

New York, December 1.-The cotton market was not active today, but prices ruled generally steady on covering by local shorts, little southern buying and some support from leading bulls. with the close quiet but steady at a net ad- vance of to 10 points. The opening was steady at an advance of 1GI6 points and while the cables were no better than due, prices gradually worked higher in the absence of commission house business suggesting that the scattering long in terest had been pretty we'll evened up on the decline of last week.
 Rumors of a bullish .national ginners' report probably inspired part of the de- mand and while buying did not become general the market showed a generally upward tendency until prices had reached a net gain of about 9Q15 points.
 Later there was enough realizing by lcngs to cause a moderate reaction. It was rumored that the report of the Ma tional Ginners' association showed 10,0S2,- 0e0 bales glnned to December 1, but pointed to growth for the season of only 11,10o.0 GOO to 11,200,000 bales.
 This would suggest larger percentage of the crop ginned to December 1 than SNSi OSAOiS OA ASSOAu, baN Nho poAiS w dently look for some such result, which would only prove in line with numer- ous private advices received during the past three or four days.
 Receipts at the ports today, 53,300 bales, against 71.221 last week, and S0,S75 last year. For the week, S75,00O bales, against 429, ,6S6 last week, and 191,565 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans. 662l. against 5926 last year. and at Houston 09 q5o Inst ono las

|TRADING IN STOCKS
 IS VERY SLUGGISH
Days Business Is Limited to
 the Professionals
THE UNDERToNE IS FIRM
Satisfactory, Which Causes Weak ness Early, But This Is Fol-
 lowed By Recovery

New York, December 5-Operations in the stock market today were quiet and featureless. The days business was linn ited to the professional party, which at me moment seems indisposed to make e move in either direction. Such issues as Atchson, New York Central and Balti- more and Ohio were subjected to pres ure at times, but responded almost imme- diately to support.
 Last. weeks bank statement accounted probably for the general recession re- corded at the opening. Money is very easy at this center, however, and i'm provement Is indicated in this same re- speot by today's report from the west and northwest.
 Complete returns to the Comptroller of the Currency of the condition of the na- tional banks as of November 10 last show increases in loans and discounts by a rrajority of the banks in the west, mid ale west. Pacific coast, and southern states. Only in this section has there been any marked decrease in loans which have fallen over $76,0O00O0, with an in crease in individual deposits of more than S22, .000.
 , Little attention was paid by Wall street eo the reassembling of Congress and tine proposed method of tariff revision. The progress of the British general election excited even less attention, but the con- 2 tinuance of the torrental floods in France was referred to in their bearing on our exports of foodstuffs to that country. Crop. conditions in the west were improved by the heavy snowfall in Kansas, which broke the long continued drought in that state and probably came in time to save much of the wheat planted in October
 American issues were steady in the Lon don market, but the premier British se- curity was heavy in that market. London was small purchaser of stocks here dur ing the day, but transactions for that &C., count were more nominal than usual.
 or the $3,o00.0o0 gold received in London from South Africa, two-thirds went to the Bank of England, the balance being consigned to India Some light was shown on last weeks meeting in this city of the steel and iron men by unofficial advices from Pittsburg, which declared in substance that the conference was called at the instigation of some leading officials who were insistent in their de- mands that prices be revised downward. It was intimated that some readjustment W would probably come with the early part of the New Year.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, December 5.--Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance of ? to points on good cables. both official and private. Official cables reported a somewhat higher futures market in Liver pool than expected and the private meas sages spoke encouragingly of the busi- ness In cloths being done in Manchester. China was said to be @ large buyer of heavy cloths in Manchester. The weather over Sunday in the cotton belt was warm but heavy rains were reported In sec tions of the belt east of the Mississippi river which was regarded as an unfa- vcrable feature At the end of the first half hour of business prices were 6 to points over Saturdays close.
 The market was steady throughout the morning session. Traders on both sides of the market were much pleased over thc announcement from the census bu- rear that it's report on ginning this week would be issued on Thursday. It has been the general impression in the mar ke, that the report would be issued on Friday three hours before the crop esti- mate from the department'o of agriculture The trade will now have nearly two days in which to figure estimates of the crop, using the ginners' returns as a basis. For some reason or other this seemed to help the long side. At noon prices

Hubbard Bros. & Co.,. Letter

New York, December 5.-(Special.)- Liverpool fully responded to our advance of Saturday and the feeling is so in favor of the market that further advance was established in face of the heavy movement of the crop A rumor was current that the National ginners would estimate the crop at 11,100,00o bales. The market is receiving small crop estimates each day, which sustain the advance n prices in face of movement which lndicates about 900,c00 bales more In sight on January 1 than last season. Large buying orders followed the crop estimate of the National ginners which is thought to foreshadow a bullish government re- port on Thursday and Friday. Everyone see''s to be long in anticipation of an advance to follow the report.
 puoi snould be 3 points higher to- morrow.
