SNOW PROTECTS
WINTER WHEAT
Also Acts as Check on
the Bullish Senti-
ment

Chicago. December ao-Snow west and
southwest. giving needed protection to the
winter crop, acted as a check today on
bullish sentiment regarding wheat from
the tap of the bell. Wheat closed weak.
B914c under yesterday. Corn showed a
ret loss of 1-l6@1sc; oats finished 1sc off
to like advance. and provisions varying
fl ON 10c decline to gain of a shade
Some of the larger wheat longs were
evidently willing to repress a rising ten
dency in the trade as they were selling
on the hard spots, but there was also
substantial support in the form of resting
orders that commission houses brought
into play on the declines. In addition to
the snowfall news regarding the Canadian
wheat tariff made caution seem necessary
on the part of the bull side. Dispatches
from Winnipeg asserted fatty that the
grain would be made duly free in Janu-
ary.
Reduced estimates on Argentine's ex-
portable surplus put some strength into
the market early in the session. Sellers
here were also restrained at first by
Buenos Ayres cables telling of general
rains in the harvest region, and by an
expected decrease in the United States WIS.,
ible supply.
More than 100000 bushels excess this
week in receipts here over shipments
pulled down the corn market notwith-
standing temporary strength due to the
forecast OF a cold wave. Prospects of a
record breaking crop in Argentina cut
figure also in easing prices.
Oats merely reflected the action of corn.
Elevator interests supplied the wants of
shorts.
Provisions averaged weaker as the sup
ply of hogs at the leading western points
showed an increase of IS per cent COM
pared~with one year before.
Liquidating sales were noticeable in jan
uary pork.

CENSUS REPORT
CAUSES SELLING
The Report Shows Total
Bales Ginned to Be
12,923,6O6

New Orleans, December eo.--New Iow
levels for the week and season were
reached in the cotton market today as
The result OF a selling wave following
the census bureau report showing a total
OF 12,92S6o6 bales of cotton ginned up
to December 1S.
This report was more than 10000 bales
larger than generally expected and caused
heavy offerings from both sides, which
resulted In a decline of nearly s. a bale
from the level Of yesterdays close. Only
small reactions from the decline took
place, although the market was generally
called oversold The chief reason for the
persistence Of the decline seemed to be
the selling out of holders of lines of long
cotton.
The market opened steady at loss OF
Il to II points. The bureau figures were
issued five minutes before the opening,
and heavy selling was experienced as
soon as trading commenced. The decline
was quickly widened to 81 bale. and by
the end of the first hour of business
amounted to 81 to 81 points From that
on the decline was checked by the profit
taking of sellers of the earlier sessions
of the week. The close was steady at
the decline at a net loss for the day OF
% to So points.
The census figures indicated that some-
tEihg over 100000 bales of cotton were
ginned In the period between December l
and 1s. Bears claimed earlier in the
week that If 100000 bales were gnned dur
ing tho period their expectations would
be met, and that it would be certain the
government again had underestimate the
crop IN its recent figures of 1S.S77.ooo
bales.

Dissolution Agreement of
Telephone Companies
Excites Market

New York, December 2o-An emphatic
response was made by the stock market
today to the news from Washington
of the American Telephone dissolution
agreement and the passage by the SEN
ate of the currency bill Dealings were
on much larger scale, and prices moved
up vigorously. 1t was felt that the disso-
luton agreement besides removing from
American Telephone the menace of a
suit under the Sherman law, would prob
ably lessen talk of government owner
ship of telephone and telegraph COM
panies, which recently has been an ac-
tive factor in depressing American Tele-
phone and Western Union to the lowest
President Theodore N. Vail of the tele-
phone company that neither the Bell
system nor the Western Union will suf-
fer helped on the upturn.
OF more influence than the dissolution
agreement itself was the statement of
President Wilson in that connection. ex-
pressing the administrators hope of
helping ito build up the business of the
country upon sound and permanent lines"
1t was felt that The American Tee-
phone agreement indicated what might
be done in cases of other corporations
under scrutiny or attack, and that in
view of the Attorney Generals expressed
hope of avoiding antitrust suits, stock
market disturbances incidental to such
proceedings might be minimized.
American Telephone was the center of
excited trading at the opening. The first
transaction was given as a block of 1000
shares at 120is to 124 sales, S1s points
apart being made at the same time. The
top price was 12414, a gain of points.
which compared with the weeks low fig
ure of no. Subsequently there was re-
action and the close was at 1929. other
securities of wire companies also were
strong. American Telephone convertibles
were bid up points, as was Pacific Tele-
phone. Stocks of the Mackay companies
which control the Postal Telegraph, rose
ga to points Western Union started
with gain of points. but later reacted
s. closing with a net loss of 21h points
The whole market was strong and ac-
tive Sugar, National Biscuit and Cana
dian Pacific gained 8 to AZ points. Ad-
vances in general ranged from 1 to IL
points.
