HEAVY DELIVERIES
 WEIGH DOWN WHEAT
The Close, Though Steady, Showed Net Losses of
 1-403-S Cents

Chicago, H., December 2.-Heavy de- liverles here today on December contracts weighed down the price of wheat. The close though steady showed net losses of hmssc. Corn wound up unchanged to 3sc higher and oats the same as Satur- day to an advance of 1aassc. There was a rise of 2lsa5c to 5f.012isc at the close in provisions.
 Pit absorption of the wheat deliveries turned out to be more of a burden than expected notwithstanding that the total did not greatly exceed what had been predicted Reselling for May kept the market unfit for more than a seanty re- action. Peace talk improved Argentine harvesting and better outlook for the win ter crop in the United States all counted against the bulls.
 Instead of making a big gain, the vlsi- ble supply of wheat scored an increase of only 30,000 bushels This fact started buying in the last hour and helped 10 export elearances.
 May wheat which ranged from s9isa9oc finished l4@3sc down at soc. Wet weather delaying husking and shelling enabled corn 10 rally when wheat began to re- cover. May ranged from 477sd4S to S9sc, closing firm at 4Ssse, the same as Satnr- days close. Cash grades were dull No. yellow was priced 571aa59c for old. Ship pers took oats on delivery and forced an enhancement especially in the December option. May ranged between 323sM32$lG 325kc with last sales 1k0DLc net higher.
 Although plentiful hogs weakened .7ro- visions at the outset, the market later had strong turn. owing to the better tone in corn and other grain May pork
 led with a net advance of 10m1aiac
 Futl1re uuotations were as follows.

COTTON NERVOUS
 UNDER BEAR RAID
Prices Off Sharply on Gen. eral Liquidation-Close
 Is Weak

New York, December 2.--The cotton market was nervous and unsettled to- day with prices selling off sharply un-
 der more or less general liquidation and bear pressure which appeared to
 be encouraged by continued talk of full ginning returns and reports of freer
 southern spot offerings. The close was
 weak and from II to SS points net low or The market opened at decline of 12 to IS points and quickly sold off
 to net loss of from IS to 21 points in
 response to disappointing Liverpool
 cables and reports of an easier spot basis in Texas. The decline was checked by buying and the market ral- lied several points from the lowest during the middle of the morning on
 report from a local firm making the amount ginned to December 1. 11,549,- 900 bales. The market met great deal
 of cotton on the bulge, however, and toward midday weakened again on ru-
 mors that the final figures of the Ma l tional Ginners' association showed Ill., $50, 900 bales to December 1. Another bulge of or 9 points followed on claims that these rumors could not be | confirmed and third private ginning
 report of 11.7o3,00O but the market con tinued to meet heavy selling of long cotton and liquidation became extreme l ly active and general in the last hour with the close at practically the low
 est of the day. It was estimated that
 various interests sold at least 100000
 bales here during the day. Liverpool
 attributed the decline there to easier
 southern offerings, continental liquida-
 ton and the influence of crop esti-
 mate iron a New orleans authority placing the yield at 13,975,000 bales excluding 1inters.

hour of business prices were IS to 20 points under the close of Saturday.
 Around the middle of the forenoon the trade was extremely nervous.
 Several price movements of impor- tanee took place but these were not well sustained. On every bulge selling orders came out freely. At the lowest of the forenoon prices were 20 to ga points off Bullish estimates for the amount of cotton ginned up to the end of November gave the trade a better tone to pin its opinion on in the fore- noon and increased the number of buy ing orders. At noon the trading months were 9 to 10 points under the close of Saturday.
 In the afternoon the trade was weak. Liquidation by longs was prominent, At ? p. m. prices were 2S to 32 points off.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, December 2.-(Speelal) )-Ow- ing 10 free offerings of cotton from the southwest in Europe and an estimate of the Times-D Democrat of a crop of 13,9O0,0O0 bales without llnters. Liverpool came low CT when it should have improved This started the longs to realize here and with the exception of sharp rallies from time to time the market declined to the close, which was at the lowest point.
 Rumors gave the national ginners as II 900,O0O to 100000 with a minimum crop estimate the same as the Times Democrat.
 Spinners bought freely during the morn ing. but in the afternoon their support was lacking while the covering of the small short interest was not sufficient to ar rest the decline.
 Should the south offer freely tonight Europe may give way sharply, otherwise q recovery should set in before the gln- ners' report Liverpool is due to come to 10 points lower.

COURTS DECISION
 UPSETS MARKET
Union Pacafic Special Ob- ject of Attack-SOuthern
 Pacific Sales Large

Ney York December 1.-The supreme courts decision in the Hartman merger case upset the stock market today, after a lstless morning session. The an- nouncement from Washington was fol- lowed by an outburst of selling. with Union Pacific, the special object of at tack.
 There were large sales of Southern Pa cifc. as well and virtually all of the favorite stocks, including industrials as we'll as railroads, shared in the move ment. Union Pacific broke 21s points, Southern Pacific points and Reading, steel Amalgamated and other prominent shares lesser amount.
 The market met with prompt support at the lower level, and prices quickly rallied. The decision was unexpected to many and the first impulse was to sell, but on second thought there was a decided change in sentiment. Losses largely were made up, and the Hartman issues scored their best figures for the day. Union Pacific preferred was bought heavily, and at one time showed a gain of 6ls.
 The upward movement was attributed to speculative buying on the theory that the courts ruling would necessitate a distribution of Union Pacific holdings of Southern Pacific. Some of the Hartman bond issues also advanced, in the belief that their retirement might be made necessary as a part of the adjustment which must now be made. SouthRrn Pacific collateral As at one period regis tered a gain of 61s points and Oregon Short Line As of points. The courts decision,- however. opened up many possibilities for speculation as to the ef fleets of the readjustment that the trad ing element was confused and movements of securities were cratic. Before the close the market became very heavy again.
 The effect of the unfavorable bank statement of last Saturday was shown in the continued tension in the money market. Call loans rose steadily from an opening at 10 per cent to 16 per cent. Engagement of a large share of the South African gold offered in London to- day by New York bankers did not serve to quiet apprehensions as to the future course of money rates.
 Stocks were unaffected by money con- ditions The chief influence of high money rates was to reduce speculation to mn- imum
 Some of the specialties developed marked strength early. Rubber rose to the high point touched in the movement last April, and Tobacco issues were buoy ant.
 Aside from the Hartman Issues, the general bond market was firm, although there was a shading in values in a few isolated cases. Total sales, par value, s2,500.0O0
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.
