CONTEST IS CLOSE
OVER WHEAT PRICE.
Bears on Top at ClOse-Oats
Quiet-Go0d Demand
for Flour

Chicago, January THE contest over
the price of wheat on the board of trade
today looked like draw most of the
day, but the bears were on top at the
close with prices 4 to 1ac under yester-
day. 1t took considerable unloading by
longs with profits In sight and much
pressure from short sellers to check a
further advance in corn. Final prices
were practically unchanged. Oats were
quiet and closed irregular while provis-
ions declined from 10 to 271Ac
Wheath started higher on an advance
at Liverpool and the political situation
in the Balkans. A good demand for -four
considering the season, was an additional
bullish factor. Longs, with profits in
sight, started realizing because of the
liberal snowfall and May dropped to sligo
Friends of the price rallied and ran the
price back to 92ssG9219c. On this rise
would-be sellers discovered that the de-
mand had been pretty we'll supplied and
the price sagged to the lowest of the
day. The close was only slightly above
this.
The aggressive corn buyers who sent
prices up yesterday continued their tao
tics at the opening today and stampeded
a considerable short interest who bid
the price of May up to 5olsc. The ad-
vance was well held but toward the
close longs who thought 1t time to Sc
cure profits found demand had been sat
tisfied on the way up and prices slunped.
At the bottom there was renewed sup
port and the close was steady.

the end of the first half hour of business
prices were to points under yester-

Considerable pressure was put on tho
trade AT intervals during the early sss-
sion. Commentaries of the exchange was
that leading spot interests and traders
who have been prominently identified with
recent bull movements were heavy sellers
stop loss orders were reached on the long
side In rather large volume. Bulls point
ad ont that spot interests were not fol-

contracts. but this had little effect In the
absence Of substantial support from the
long side. In the trading up to noon
prices went 10 to Is points under the level
of Yesterdays last prices.

EARLY DECLINE IS
PARTLY RECOVERED
Cotton Closes Steady With
Market 5 TO 3 Points
Higher

New York, January 7.-There vas ie-
newed liquidation in the cotton market
today but an early decline was partly
recovered with the market closing steady,
net points to points higher, new crop
proportions being relatively steady.
The market opened steady at an ad-
vance of points on January but gener-
allv one point higher to one point there,
which was about as due on the cables.
After some little irregularity with the
market receiving considerable support
from undoing or straddes by houses with
Liverpool and New Orleans connection,
prices began to ease off under scattering
liquidation attributed partly to the un-
settling influences of yesterdays court
decision and local pressure.
A little trade buying, said to be against
calling by mills, absorbed offerings grad
ualiy on a scale down, but it was not
until prices showed a net loss of from
l3 to II points ON old crop delivered that
the demand became active enough to
materially help the tone of the market
Then there was covering by shorts as
we'll as trade buying and In the late
trading prices rallied some to 10 points
from the lowest. Private reports of
continued steadiness in the interior spot
markets probably helped the rally and it
was claimed that mills were trying to
buy spots in the south at the decline
but found houses unwilling to make con-
cessons.
Talk of bullish ginning returns next
Thursday may also have inspired some
of the covering after the market had
| sold through 12iac for the spring months,
but items bearing upon the size of the
old crop appear to have lost force for
the time being and local traders are
already beginning to study whether con
ditions as bearing upon probable new
| crop prospects.
! New crop deliveries ruled relatively
! steady all day, but 1t was claimed that
winter rains have put a good season
! into the ground and bearish arguments
are based largely upon predictions ef in
| creased acreage.

PRICES CREEP Up
|NSTOCK MARKET
Demand Not Large Enough
to Create an Active
Market

New York, January 7.-The level of
stock exchange prices crept upward
today and though the demand was not
large enough to create an active mar
|Set the tone was perceptibly better.
I'm spite of the mixed and often con-
Trajectory movements of stock recent
ly the shifting character of trading
|from day to day and the lack of sta
|bility of the market 1t has been ap-
parent that the supply of stocks at
prevailing quotations Is scanty and the
ordinary requirements of dull day
|are sufficient to result in an all around
of the standard railroad
land Industrial shares.
The effect of the setback received
yesterday in the supreme courts re-
fused to sanction the plan of Hartman
Interests for distributing Union Pa
|ciics holding of Southern Pacific were
|o<r over night and the Hartman is
|sues were strong features of the list
with Union Pacific for a time selling
II points above yesterdays close. Specu-
|lative interest was greatest in this
stock buying of which was said to be
largely for short covering.
Although the advance in prices was
|quite general there We're few weak
points in the list. Western Maryland
tissues, especially the preferred, which
broke 5 Y points, showed further heav-
mess. Beet sugar dropped points to
|35, its lowest price since 1910
The first sale of Lackawanna Tex
rights to the new stock issue was
|made TODAY at 444, a decline of 126
points. Deducting the rights which was
|sold as high as IL and also the last
dividend, the price of the stock showed
little change.
There was wider inquiry for bonds
to-day. An increasing demand for high
grade issues is looked for at this sea-
|son in consequence of reinvestment of
the heavy disbursements of interest
and dividend. Although the tone of the
bond market has been better for the
last few days the demand so far has
proved smaller than in former years.
