LIVELY ACTION IN
 WHEAT YESTERDAY
Increasingly Bullish Specu- lative Sentiment Carried
 Grain Up One Cent

Chicago, January 2s.-Increasingly bull ish speculative sentiment carried wheat m today 1c a bushel The close was at a gain of l4e to 1kassc. Corn finished 1z6p ssc to sse higher than 4s hours previous. oats up ssQ15e to ssc, but hog products less expensive by 2lsq1Oe.
 All day there was lively action in wheat. An early bulge to over $l.03 for May brought a rush of selling, but before trad ing came to an end the price nevertheless. went almost to $1 .O4 The strength was largely the result of encouraging cables. but was also due in part to a big dea crease in the United States visible sup ply total. Liverpool sent word of ner- vousness there concerning the small stocks on hand, as we'll as light world shipments. Advices from Buenos Ayres predicted a large movement soon to the sea board, but there also were complaints of harvest returns making wretched out look as a result of recent bad weather.
 Diminishing receipts northwest. alleged injury to seeded winter wheat and con- firmed reports of 50 boatloads of Manitoba wheat taken for ocean shipment all count ed on the bull side. Profit taking and sales on resting orders at the extreme advance seemed to be well absorbed, though causing the market to close with a somewhat easy tone. May ranged from 102Ss to s10s7s, with final sales 1Ea5sc net higher at si.Os9s@1 .oS1A.
 Indiana and Illinois export business helped make corn firm. So did cold weather and increased feeding. The cash market was strong in the face of a heavy movement of the crop, especially in the southwest. In consequence many early sellers were busy late in the day covering shorts May fluctuated between 6711c and @ise. closing steady 1s@ssc up at 67s4@ 677sc. Cash grades were in good demand. No ? yellow was not quoted.
 Eager speculative buying kept soft spots out of the market. Realizing sales fur nished the only source of offerings. Re ceipts were small and cash inquiry most urgent. Outside limits touched for May proved to be 507sc and 5la4e. with the close 51lsc, an advance of ssc since Saturday night.
 Provisions suffered depression on ac- count of huge arrivals at the yards in the west. Furthermore the government re- port made the fact clear that the supply of hogs on farms has not fallen below last year. despite large increase In the slaughter. In the end pork was cheaper by a nickel to a dime, and the rest of the list 2lkd71hc down.
 Future quotations were as follows:

were reported in bad condition again. This will result in delay to the movement
 It was also considered that farm work and picking had been set back, and that considerable damage to open cotton had resulted from the wind. The list was quiet and steady In the early trading, and after half an hour of trading stood [ to Il points up.
 With prices to 11sponts up satisfied longs were heavy profit takers, and they gave the ring more cotton than it could absorb.
 Prices fell away gradually. the market being sustained to some extent by reports of good spot demand, and the weather forecast, which promised continued rates in the eastern half of the cotton belt.
 Private eablegrams from Liverpool and Manchester were very bulish and helped also to steady the list. Before the second call the trading months were unchanged to ? points up compared with Saturday.
 Prices steadied after the second call. The list was ? to , points oyer Saturdays close half an hour before the close.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, January 29.-(Special )-Liv- erpool had q good demand for cotton from Manchester, which gave an unex- pected advance to that market. There was not, however, an active demand here, executing from the closing of the open arbitrage transactions between the two markets.
 Arbltrage brokers would buy freely hero at the difference were fl not for the gen eral Impression that the merchants in Liverpool do not wish to tender their elected cotton against their hedge sales in the summer months. These deliveries have been slowly moving to a premium over the new crop for this season.
 The market here acts heavy; it would appear as though there had been a com paratlvely large long interest made on the recent advance for northern account. which is not inclined to buy more until they can learn whether there will be q reduction in acreage or not.
 Liverpool should be points lower to- morrow.

 New Irish potatoes are being supplied regularly now, but each day ladies make raid on the market for the newest things. Snap beans are going fairly well and tomatoes find a ready sale. Squash go to some people, while peppers arc used extensively. Lettuce perhaps finds inc best sale, while celery at 10 and 15 cents n stalk is going fast each day.

QUOTATIONS MOVED IN UNCERTAIN WAY At Opening Market Sub jected to Pressure and
 Prices Receded

New York. January 29.-Quotations of stocks operated In an uncertain manner. At the opening the market s,,biected to severe pressure and prices reeeded abruptly. There was a partial recovery in the first hour but before noon the selling was resumed on large scale and the list showed de- cided weakness.
 Prices hardened slowly in the aft ernoon until losses had been largely eliminated, but in the last hour the pressure again became heavy and some issues fell back to about the low point of the day. The movement as Whole was cratic and confusing and seenieu to indicate a sharp conflict of specu- 1ative operation.
 No important new influences were brought to bear and the selllhs Was regarded as a continuation of the move nent of late last week. Ihe mar still felt the effect of the pessiiiis eie statement issued by the chairman oi 1he steel board in explanation or the reduction in the dividend payment on 4he common stock. Bearish sentiment was stimulated also by prophecies that the quarterly report of the united States Steel corporation, to be issued tomorrow, would be unfavorable ana flat Union Pacific report for Decem- her would disclose a large cut in earn inus. Union Pacific and United states Steel were the conspicuiously weak { .tntks and the unusual activity which 12Svailed through the forenoon trad fa kt8 I06, the lowest point of the year and within fraction of the bottom firures of recent years, and did not Sxl,6re in the recovery. The copper 5fiSres which were influenced by a siSrp break in the price of the metal b&&rd also closed at the low point of tij& day
 Persistent buying of a few issues. among which New York Central, Read i'm and Lehigh Valley were most prom 5non& was instrumental in steadying flib fist; when symptoms of pronounced w6akness became apparent New York Central rose 3 points and Reading and 1.eh3xh Valley half as much. American Sugar, which was unusually active, sroae sponts.
 Nofthern Pacific made no response |tof an Unexpectedly favorable Decem- Eber report An increase in gross earn ings of s239,000 was converted into a net gain of $427,000 by reduction of $1Ss, GOO in operating expenses. Traffic conditions of the western roads were somewhat better last week, operating officials said.
 London largely increased in its sell ing in this market today. About 20.- coo shares were disposed of on bal ance for foreign account. Foreign eX- change rates were easier today. all though theGe was no pronounced re- cession from the high rates last week International bankers said that unless some material change occurred it was likely that the near future would bring with it exports of. gold to London. The bond market developed steadi- ness after period of early irregular ity when the active issues were affect ed by the weakness of stocks.

THE BAD WEATHER AFFECTS MARKETS Volume of Trade Light, But Several Quotations
 Advance.

Bad weather Monday had quite a de- pressing effect on Morris avenue busi- ness. However, several interesting feat ures were recorded, among them being the high price received for fresh eggs The supply was almost exhausted, and one of the merchants made sales as high as 371se a dozen.
 The price of oranges also strengthened considerable. In view of weather condi- tions the produce business was fairly good, but receipts were light in Florida vegeta bles, fruits and produce generally.
 Fowl was much in evidence, but the. demand was rather light. Prices remain stationary at 1l012c for hens and from 15c tO lie for fryers
