FOR THE CALL
STOCK MARKET
PRICES ADVANCE

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-In the
stock market prices rose very gem
orally and the movement was url-
usually comprehensive. The rise
embraced not only the standard
railway shares, but took in many
of the southern and southwestern
issues and various specialties as
we'll
The further gain in Southern
Railway preferred was coincident
with reports that dividends on the
stock are likely to be resumed
soon. Canadian Pacific was active
at a higher price. Union FacInc
and Southern Pacific were appar-
emily in demand at smart advances
in the face of distinctly unfaYor-
able exhibits.
The coal stocks were conspic-
uous for their activity and under
lying strength, and Reading was
bought by traders who pro-
fessed to have advance lntSr-sfa-
tion that the company's showing
for November would be more than
gratifying. The market closed
with prices generally at or near
the best.
London was a buyer on balance,
but not enough TO call for. de-
tailed comment. The Bank or
England's proportion of reserve
to liabilities fell to $3.50 per cent,
a decline of s y per cent from the
previous week. but compared
favorably with the corresponding
week last year. The banks total
reserve decreased more than ST.
600, 600, and its bullion holdings
decreased by $500, 600. Clear
ances by the London banks for the
week were almost $500, 100000 less
than for the same week last year.
A striking feature of the weekly
statement of the Bank OF France
pnnrT71O11 inNTP2S OF
about S34,00O,000 in bills dis
counted.
Belated demands for money
caused a furry in call loans, for
which the rate advanced to 5 per
cent 1t is not improbable that
a further slight disturbance of
local monetary conditions may be
witnessed tomorrow, but in the
judgment of bankers the higher
rate is not likely to last long.
The bond market was irregular
with especially large dealings In
Norfolk and Western convertible
as at rising prices. Total sales,
par value. were IS, 425,000.
United States government bonds
were unchanged on call.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2s.-E. F.
Hutton & Co.'s wire says: Inf1u-.
entail and somewhat aggressive
buying was the feature of today's
stock market and Tor the nfSt time
in many weeks. Absorption has
been in progress in the down scale
during this period, but securities
were bid for today by the right
people. Professional Wall street
attributed the rise to so called
window dressing" at the years S
end, but we seriously doubt if this
was the basis for the movement.
Wall street is liquidated to a. share
with the universe very peSSimiStic
.en the outlook Bankers are now
the chief holders of securities in
anticipation of better times, which
will be reflected in stocks six
months in advance of trade condi-
tions.

GRAIN STATISTICS

wire says:
swheat-Higher cables, smaller northwestern
and primary receipts, larger local shipments and
some export business reported In Manitoba have
been the influences today. Quite a number Of
the shorts have covered, there has been further
big buying. both of wheat and corn by the
leading bulls and the market has shown further
congestion. There has been no demand here
for cash wheat, and even the car lot sales have
dragged. but the inspection department shows
cancellation Of 235 900 bushels and the trade
has assumed that sales are larger than reported
European centers reporting reduced estimates
Of the Argentine crop and better demand from
the continent. France was said to be buying
but Paris wheat was unchanged to Ac UP only,
and dour A@%c up. Argentine shipments for
the week are heavy. Manitoba export sales
sign Of exports Of United States wheat More
rains have fallen over the winter wheat belt
except in western Nebraska, Kansas and okla
homa. 1t Is now showing In eastern Missouri
and I'm the wheat country Of Illinois.
"Corn--Wet weather over the corn belt, further
resulting from. further claims of losses to the
Argentine crop have been the market influences
today, There has been far more effective work
for higher prices, however, in the enormous nur-
chases made by commission houses acting for the
leading longs in wheat and corn Primary re-
large as those Of year ago, and the movement
from the country dealer continues to the limit
of oars available. Cash demand fiat SHINING
sales, $4,000 bushels. Cash corn has not fol
lowed futures.
''Oats-Have made very faint response to the
bulge in other grains. Trade has net increased
as much as in others also. The primary arrivals

age. Cash oats are steady Shipping sales,
