NEW YORK STOCKS
Market Undergoes It's Third
and Most Severe Test of
The Week.
WAR SHARES ATTACKED

New York Dec. l3.-The stock market
underwent It's third and most severe test
of the week today, further serious inroads
being made upon prices during the first
half Of the session Of another enormous SELL

remedied in the later dealings. particularly

in part by hurried short covering, wiping
out many losses and substituting notable
gains
The status of the domestic situation in
Its relation to the Teutonic peace over
lures was again made the weapon with
which TO depress prices In the forenoon. In
well informed quarters, however, this was
regarded as secondary in actual importance
to the congested and over-extended bull
position denoted In the dealings of the
pending week.
War shares and affiliated issues again
were the center OF attack, while the lioui-
dalton was at its height, with extreme losses

United States Steel bore the brunt of the
early pressure in the extent of its offerings
at an extreme concession of Az to 1O9h.
Steels' contribution of the days transac-

cent of the total of 100000 shares.

traders minds but that declines would be
In order. Packers early bids were a big

day.

Draws Gun by Muzzle
And is Instantly Killed

Rapid City, s. D., Dec. 15.-(Spe-
cial. AS James Brodsky pulled a
shotgun, muzzle first, from a wagon
on which he was loading corn fodder
in a field near Owanka something
caught the trigger, exploding the shell
in the gun. The muzzle of the gun was
but few inches from the young mans
abdomen and he received the full
charge, tearing his body almost in
two. He was killed instantly.
Deceased was a young man, having
just passed his twenty-first birthday.
He lived with his father on a ranch
near where the accident happened.

BEEF STEERS.

Hogs--Early wires from Cf.cago quoted
that market opening slow at n nickel adj
vance. Here the trade got of to fairly
early start, shipping demand being, II any
thing, broader than on the last couple OF
days, movement starting at prices that
were anyway q nickel TO In many cases a.
much d 1oc higher. and later settling down
on a largely 5@i0c higher basis. The mar
ket was fairly active all through and
pretty good clearance had been made by
10 o'clock. Az usual, though, packers left
out some OF the light and plain mixed stun
when they bought their early drcves. and
with quite = sprinkling OF these less de-
sirabie kinds left for the close, late rounds
were draggy. No change was noted In
prices while the good Logs lasted. and while
some traders were calling last rounds
weaker, II was hare to say just how prices
on the finish compared with early. As offer
inEs Mt that time were Of a class that Is
always hard to sell at any time Of the day.
while more than one seller said his hogs
were no more than &c higher. It was the
opinion Of the majority that the general
market showed gain of mostly b@ioc,
Tho bulk sold at ss55@ss5. and best
weighty hogs reached 1900. As compared
with last weeks close. prices are In no case
less than steady, while an advance of a
nickel or SO 10 quotable on q good many
sales. and the average Is shade better
than last Saturday.

Increasing Caution the Outstanding
Feature.

New York, Dec. 15.-Duns Review to-
morrow will say:
The outstanding and most reassuring fea-
ture of the business situation as 1t has been
for some time. Is the increased caution
manifested in banking. producing. and dis
tributing channels. Foreign developments
have accentuated the tendency toward
wholesome conservatism without affecting
the progress Of finance, or lessening the
volume of transactions in trade and in
dustry, and recent speculative readjust-
ments have made the general outlook dis
tinctly clearer Strength continues pro-
nounced In many quarters and buyers. while
operating with sustained confidence, give
more consideration to the element of cost
in making commitments for the future.
Activity in some branches has subsidized as
1t invariably does at this season, with sales
men coming in from the road for the holi-
days and annual inventories under way, or

Omaha Futures.
The government crop report shows big
decrease in the supply Of wheat and corn
and under ordinary conditions this would
be bullish factor In the market, but the
peace rumors and the lack of shipping facili-
ties, have placed the bears In control. and
the close on May wheat was Sl.51, a drop
OF 1ihc from the close Thursday. The
market opened from 2hc, to &c lower and
the decline started heavy selling by shorts
and covering by longs.
The corn market was affected In some
degree by the loss In wheat, but the strong
cash situation and the decrease In elevator
stocks served to keep up corn values.
Considering the decline in wheat, oats also
held up well. but the trade In this market
was very light, and closing prices were un.
changed on December and / nc lower on
May.
