CHICAGO GRAIN
AND PROVISIONS
Ey Associated Press.

Chicago. Dec. Cash wheat was in
such bountiful supply here today that
owners were actually advertising bargain
sale fashion in the newspapers, the mar
ket for futures today could hardly fail
to show weakness. In addition. the bulls
were discouraged by fine weather in the
Argentine. Prices opened unchanged to
1-Sc lower. May started at % 34 to
80 rs, the same variation from last night
as the market. taken as whole. A de-
cline to SO 5-Sc followed.
Trade in corn was very slow and scat
tered. Sales by cash houses made the
wheat have an easy tone. May opened a
shade to 1-SQ1-4c lower at 60 5-8 to
IS SIC, but rallied to 63 3-4@78.
Oats displayed a little tirmness owing
to commission buying. Business how
ever. was ON q small scale. May started
unchanged to shade higher at 40 SIS to
5S63-4c, and seemed inclined to keep
within that range.
Heavy unloading by longs had a de-
pressing effect On provisions. Sellers
were influenced mainly by a drop in prices
at the yards. Initial transactions varied
from last nights figures to u 1-2c down,
with May $16O5 to 1910 for pork; $40 to
9.22 10 for lard and So IL for ribs

STOCK MARKET
CLOSES STEADY
BY Associated Press.

New York, Dec. 5-Trading in stocks
was almost suspended this morning pend
ing publication Of the presidents mes
sage: The volume of business at the
opening was sufficient TO keep the market
in motion only few minutes, after which
it relapsed into stagnation. Prices We're
steady within small fractions of last
nights close. The one exception was
Texas Pacific, which gained a point.
Prices weakened all around with par
ticuiar pressure against the Wabash Sc
curities and American Car Preferred.
Wabash, preferred, broke l Il and the
4 per cent. bonds 1 SIS.
Wall Street spent the morning in wait
ing for the presidents message. Trading
was unusually small ana operations dwin-
died to still smaller proportions in the
second hour, but the market had a some
what better undertone. Support was eX-
tended to the Wabash stocks and bonds
which made up about half heir loss. In
the more active section, prices crept up
gradually to about yesterdays close.
Bonds were irregular.
The market continued quiet after the
publication of the presidents message,
until just before o'clock, when it be-
came active and very weak. Wabash,
lean Car is, and Union Pacific, Lehigh
Valley, Norfolk & Western, Missouri Pa
cifc. Louisville & Nashville, United
States Steel and Amalgamated Copper l.
Virginia Iron jumped IL. -.
Announcement Of the reorganization
plan of the Wabash resulted in further
heavy sales of securities. The common
stock went down 8 points to 7. and the
preferred 1874 to IS, the lowest figures
since 1908. The 4 per cent bonds yielded
SIS to 81 IL. The active selling else
where ceased and there was a slight rally.
The market closed steady. After the
lowest prices of the day had been regis
tered for the Wabash securities, support
ing orders came and those issues closed
at Il point to ? above the lowest. inal
prices of standard stocks were from a
half-point above to a half-point under
yesterdays close.

one of the first questions generally
disposed of at a session of the confer
ence is the calling of question p,
which refers to the moral character
and official administration Of the min
listers, the name of each preacher be-
ing called and their presiding elders
answe ring for them as to whether or
not they are blameless in their lives
and character. Under this heading, of
course, should there be any reason the
investigation of the record of any min
lister, the matter is taken up. 1t is
probable that quite a good deal of to-
days session will be consumed in dis
posing Of this important question.
All of the conference boards hold
sessions today, their meetings being
held in the various rooms of the church
and at hours which will be announced
on the conference floor in time for
those who have business with any OF
them to arrange TO meet them. These
boards are the following: The board
of Missions, the Sunday school board.
the board OF church extension. the
board of finance, the board of educa-
ton, the Epworth League board and
the Bible board.

Big Conference.

This will probably be the best at
tended conference in the history of the
Alabama conference. because of the
fact that the conference is growing
rapidly and the preachers are attending
unusually well. it seems Besides the
clerical members, however. there are
a great many lay delegates from all
sections within the bounds of the con-
ference.
The conference has grown a great
deal since the last session was held
in this city eight years ago, but the
Methodist church in Pensacola has
also grown with the city. and the
church and city are easily able to ac-
cOmmodate the body without the least
inconvenience and this fact, together
with the fact that the preachers are in
splendid spirit generally, most of them
having had successful years, makes
the prospect bright for one Of the
pleasantest and most successful scs-
SiOnS in it's history

Two BISHOPS,

While this is not the first time such
a thing has occurred, it is novel fea-
ture and one which adds TO the inter
est in the conference, that two bishops
are here in attendance. Both of them
are recognized as among the leaders
of Methodism and are among the fore
most in the college of bishops. Both
Bishop Wilson and Bishop Denny will
be present during the entire session.
Besides the bishops. number of
other distinguished leaders in the
Southern Methodist church will be
here during, at least. a part of the
week. so that the session of the con-
ference which convenes here today
bids fair to be one that will go down
in the annals of the church ard be
long remembered.
