LtADING STAPLES
 MAKE NET GAIN
Big Falling Off of North western Receipts-Large
 Amount of Trading

Chicago, December 13.-Frightened over a big falling off in northwestern receipts, and because of unsettled weather and shorts today covered freely. In conse- quence the market closed lsa9sc higher than yesterday.
 All other leading staples also made a net gain-corn %c, oats 1-16c to 7sc and hog products 1Oc to 221sc.
 The amount of trading in wheat was unusually large. Aside from motives sup piled by the northwest and by South America, the livening up of cash demand in Chicago were said to be the principal purchasers of the spot grain. said to be 400, COG bushels of No. red winter. Fur taermore Kansas City laid claim to ship ping sales of O,O00 bushels mostly to go south. In the opinion of many dealers the big movement of spring wheat to pri- mary markets in the northwest was at an end, but this view could not be called unanimous. particularly in the light Of the latter half of the session. As bearing out the contrary idea the smallness of arr rivals was declared to be due to heavy fog which prevented two railroads from bringing in any wheat at all to Minne- apols. Accordingly prices sagged ma terially from top figures, but the close was steady.
 Between the opening and the wlndup May ranged from 97ssc to 9s14c, with last sales at 97ssc.
 Spirited buying of corn grew out of re- ports that yield and quality offerings had also bulllsh effect. May fluctuated from 63A@6S2sc to637sc, closing firm, so up at 6Ss4c
 Cash grades were In good demand. No ? yellow was quoted at 7OQ71c for carload lots.
 Oats sympathized with corn. Pit traders were mainly on the buying side. Prac- tjcally no exceptions came in response tc bids sent out to rural districts over night Top and bottom ranges touched for the Map option were 4914d49ssc and 49c respec- lively, with the close 491s0 i914c, a net advance of a shade.
 Provisions scored sharp rise. One eX- planaton was that certain local and Mill warkee packers were purchasing lib- orally Back of this fact was the stronger market for grain and hog products. At the last gong pork was higher by 171aQ 221ac, and other products 10Q121ao higher.
 Future quotations were as follows:

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, December 13.-(Special) Europe received so many offers of cot ton from the south on the advance that Liverpool hesitated this morning and did not respond to the improvement here as it should have done. We were surprised at the steadiness at the open ing, but 1t soon developed that the brokers who usually act for uptown people were buying steadily, absorb ing, all of the offerings from the south. While the market receded when these brokers ceased buying it quickly recovered during the last hour
 The south continues bearish. Many rumors of a bearish ginners' report were current, but the local idea is that the sellers of the past week have been covering since the bureau was issued.
 American spinners are asking ques- tions, though stil waiting for the de- cline, when farmers are expected to sell the cotton they have on hand. Liv- erpool Is expected a shade easier.

rIglsi4 RnTfl uIUUIlO HUIIvL 1 TOWARD CLOSE U. s. Steel Backbone of the Market-Brisk Foreign
 Account

New York, December 13.-After drifting idly through most of the day, the stock market became strong and active in the last hour. Previous to that time quota tions had barely moved, but in the final uNturn the Steel and Copper stocks, the Hartman issues and some of the coalers rose point CT more above the final prices of yesterday.
 United States Steel was the backbone of the market. Although the trend of prices was downward during the fore part of the day, with losses running up to a point among the representative stocks, the Steel shares defeated all efforts to de- press them. The quotation rose steadily and toward the close of the session trans action in the stock reached an enormous scale. Blocks of 1000 to 5000 shares were traded in frequently and at the end of the day the price stood at 66ss, a gain of 17s. This is the highest price since last September before the beginning of the slump in the stock, which eliminated in the break 10 50, at the time the dissolu- uon suit Was filed. The movement in United States Steel affected the whole market and more business was transacted in the last hour than in all the preceding portions of the day.
 Buying of United States Steel was escribed to better trade conditions and re- ports of higher prices Some additional advances affecting the lighter grades of products were announced, but statements that prices of the heavy Steel products would be raised this week were not con- firme0. In the trade review it was pointed out that the effect of recent advances had not been determined, although the volume of business in nearly all lines was in- creasing. No large expansion is expected during the remainder of the year owing to the holidays.
 Continued improvement in the copper metal market was an important influence in strengthening the Copper stocks. The metal market held strong today at the higher prices recently established. Amer ican Agricultural, Chemical made In ef- feet one Of the best gains among the in- dusfials, the movement being explained as anticipatory of possible dividend ac- tion. Western Unions recent display of strength was referred to in the quarterly report, wlich showed a gain of $700, ,J0UU over the previous year.
 Transactions for foreign. account were brisker today. Dealings with London ex- ceeded 2GO0 shares, about evenly divided between buying and selling. The advance in foreign exchange rates continued. re- flectins easier money conditions at home and the increased requirements abroad. Time money was easier The market was influenced by offerings of money for ac- count of western banks. With prepara- tions In view for interest and dividend payments on January 1, of more than $20O GOO and lively demand for funds from abroad, there is no expectation of ] further pronounced relaxation of rates in the immediate future. 7
 The bond market was irregular, with trading heavy in a number of the specula- tive. issues. Local traction bonds were especially strong. Total sale, par value, s,153,ooo United States bonds were un- changed on call.

Activity was not much in evidence on Morris avenue Wednesday, and what busi- ness was transacted Was largely with the country merchants. The cause of dull ness in trade was attributed to the in- element weather.

SHARP REACTION|N
 COTTON MARKET
Caused by Rumors of Heavy Ginning Returns-Ral-
 lies Later

New York, December 13.--An early advance in today's cotton market was followed by rather sharp reaction owing to rumors of heavy ginning re- turns for the first period in December, but the market rallied again on re- newed covering and closed very steady at a net advance of 15 points.
 The market opened steady at un- changed prices to a decline of 1 to ' points, which was rather better than due on the cables and Curing the morn ing sold up to Q net advance of about 5 to points on covering of shorts, continued foreign buying, particularly of the late months. and the operations of reactionists. The south was seller on the advance and while 1t was ru- mored that speculative interests were covering short cotton sold prior to the governments crop report, the market turned easier shortly after midday on more aggressive offerings from local bears and liquidation by early buyers who were probably influenced by bear ish rumors as to the showing of pre- liminary returns to the National Gin- StON'N of business last night.
 There was some selling by spot houses on the decline, said to be against purchases of spots in the south, which had tendency to create an impression that the interior holders were weak ening but the southern markets off cially reported before the close were generally unchanged to a shade higher and the failure of the trade to receive any confirmation of the rumors of easy spots probably helped to check the de- cline at a net loss of about 1 to . points. Covering was active again in the last hour and it looked as though some of the big short lines were again being reduced. It was estimated around the ring that leading shorts have cov- cred contracts representing at least 200, 900 bales of cotton since the publi- cation of the government crop estimat te and prices at the best point of to- days trading showed recovery of some or 20 points from the low rec ords of yesterday morning. Southern selling is supposed to have supplied a good deal of trade demand but Memphis interests were believed to be buyers here this morning.
 Receipts today, 66,565 bales against 62,686 last week and 61,S17 last year Today's receipts at Galveston, 19,024 against 16,110 last year, and at New Orleans, 16,260 against 20,s5S last year. at Houston, 11,618 against 17915 last year.
