new YORK STOCK MARKET
Wall Street Displays Languid Inter
est in Trading During Day.
WABASH SECURITIES FAIL
Developments Mt Railroad Meeting
Prove 90 Have Greater Effect
Than the Presidents Mes
sage 60 Congress.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-wau street dis
played only a languid interest in stocks
To-Day. As market influence the de-
Velopments at the Wabash meeting were
OF greater effect than the PRESIDENT
message
When news OF the proposed reorganIza-
ton reached the street the only active
movement OF the day, occurred. The Wa
bash securities tumbed to the lowest
prices OF several years and the whole
market weakened with them.
The Wabash securities on anticipation
OF favorable outcome OF todays meet
ing showed the effects of heavy selling
at the outset today. In the afternoon
tho pressure became more severe The
common stock yielded 3h to 6Jk, the pre-
ierred 69s TO 17as. and the 4 per cent
bonds 50 to 81. Before the close there
was recovery. The selling reflected the
uncertainty which Is now felt as to the
future OF Wabash.
Canadian Pacific became weak, notwith-
standing the fact that the November re-
port OF gross earnings showed a gain of
more than 81 100000 The coal roads also
were weaker. Among the industrials.

SHEEP-Openlng trade in fat sheep and
lambs was about as dull as could be
imagined. Demand proved almost life
less and there was little or no business
transacted until well along in the morn
ing, all buyers holding back with the
openly expressed intention of cheapening
cost. Rather large receipts together with
unfavorable advices from the east were
responsible for this attitude. The run
amounted to about 1900 head and con-
sisted of fed and warmed-up arrivals the
latter classes being especially plentiful.
Range offerings, coming directly under
western billing, were very scarce.
When trading finally started 1t became
apparent that sellers would have to make
duce anything like n creditaple clearance,
good fed stock ruling about 10615c lower.
This decline was shown both in desirable
sheep and lambs, the market for short
fed stuff being generally described as
shot to pieces" Strings that looked like
they had been finished in fortnight had
TO move at almost any old figure, sellers
failing to even get bid in many quar-
tiers. Trade dragged along in this fashion
until after midday, closing on bottom.
Good fat lambs dropped to S5.I5 and less
and wethers that passed the $3.50 mark
had to be first-class. Well conditioned
ewes ranged around 1925, but the de-
mand for Gamers was very slack.
Country call for feeders seemed to be
reasonably healthy and prices in general
showed little quotable change Not much
thin stuff went out, however as supply
has been steadily shrinking. Yesterday
entire purchase on finlshers' orders
amounted to only 1000 head.

Prices on Board of Trade.

PFtceG ON board OF Tfades
Z CHICAGO, Dec. b.--Action taken by the
leading owner OF cash wheat here In
using newspaper advertising space as
method OF finding customers for his prop
erty led today 10 the most pronounced
selling pressure noted for weeks In the
option trade on change. The outcome was
a violent break In prices. with the close
showing loss OF lac to 1hc net. All
other staples suffered In sympathy-corn,
sale to lAQlhc down: oats off NC to
51@esc and hog products. DC to 21hc lower
Throughout the day the wheat market
seemed almost on the verge OF democrats
zation. Traders in general who were on
the bull side were not only disheartened,
but also much puzzled at the unprece-
dented course OF advertising millions of
bushels OF grain for sale as II the article
offered was a department store bargain,
instead Of the most important stock OF
food in the nation, approximately $4,000
900 worth. The fact that the advertise
ment occupied only a couple OF inches OF
space at the bottom OF a column added
TO the mystification. but did not prevent
the market from dropping In nearly a ver-
teal line, with big houses liquidating and
stop loss selling by small holders. The
effect was not confined TO Chicago, The
tone OF trading became comparatively
steady at the close. During the session
May, the principal option, ranged from
ss,ke 70 %5sc, with the close lac net lower
Corn sold at the lowest price In months.
May fluctuRted between csc and 037sc,
closing steady but E9le net down at 62Itc.
Cash grades were weak. No yellow old
was quoted at Tic.
In oats there. was a great deal of un.
loading on the part OF longs. Top and
bottom figures touched for May were
4gssdi9& and 4S5tG49c with the close va
$50 net lower at 498i9Mc.
Extreme weakness developed in pro-
visions. Tonight pork showed a drop OF
&c to 7ne110c.
Leading futures ranged as follows:

HOGS-A big showing OF hogs at most
OF the leading market points gave buyers
considerable leverage and trade in gen
eral suffered. Locally, buyers insisted
upon declines OF generally a dime and
Dulk OF 1l,OOO-head run changed hands on
this basis. In spots, the market appeared
no worse that 5dl0c off, but sellers plac-
ing offerings at the lesser reduction
either had averages especially attractive
or managed to induce competition from
several different quarters.
Movement during the session was at
no time very lively but few lulls de-
veloped and the yards were practically
cleared by 1890 o'clock. shippers and
Spectators favored the butcher classes
and purchased about seventeen loads in
all fully 10 per cent of the entire supply
Lard. butcher and bacon grades sold at
the high, middle and low spreads, re-
spectiNely, premiums for weight re-
naming unchanged. The best heavies on
sale landed at S6.lOq615, the latter figure
being top. Butchers moved around $3.50
sos and bacon stuff ranged from S. 90
downward. Scattered punches of little
pigs sold largely under the $500 mark
