Factor of Primary I'm

New York. Dec. Monetary conditions In
their relation to the stock market were again
a factor Of primary Importance today,
though superseded for time by the interest

Call loans did not rise above 10 per cent
and fell as low as g. but money was not
especially free until most pressing needs had
been met, Speculative shares suffered Sc

Another significant feature arising from
the local money market was the pronounced
falling off in trading, transaction barely
amounting to $50 600 shares. This Is the
first full session IN several weeks in which
the total has nstexceeded 1000, 900 shares by
liberal margin
Price movements were accompanied by a
mixture Of advances and declines. Low
grade rails were again in high favor. espe-
cially the new and old issues of Wheeling &
Lake Erie at gains Of to over points. with
as much more for Toledo, St Louis &

GRAIN AND PRODUCE
Trade on Cash Wheat Market
is Brisk, Although Some
Prices Drop.
CORN SALES ARE GOOD


Omaha, December 5, 1916.
There was a good cash inquiry for wheat
today. and while the market sold from IN
changed to &c lower, the trade was pretty
brisk. and . good percentage of the sam
pies were disposed OF before noon. There
was not much durum wheat On the tables,
but there was a good milling demand for
the better grades of hard winter wheat ana
these grades sold quite readily. No. hard
brought around Si.es; No. hard sold gen
orally at Sl.63 to t1.65. and few sales Of
No. hard were made around s1.60 and
sl.6l while fine sample grade ranged In
price from s1.35 to usS.
Corn was quoted from unchanged to lc
higher, and the demand was pretty active
but the sellers generally were inclined to
hold out for better prices and, as result
the trade In corn was rather slow. The
sellers let go OF their yellow corp little
more freely than they did the white. and
the commercial grades Of yellow sold around
sac and sihc. while mixed corn Of the same
grade sold at SAVE.
The oats market was very quiet. mainly
on account Of the light receipts, and buy
ers were taking the samples at prices rang
ing from unchanged to Nc higher, the No.
white selling at 51hc, while the bulk yes
terday went at sic.
only one car of rye was received today
and that brought $40; while about seven
cars Of barley were reported, most OF which
sold at unchanged prices.
CIearances were: Wheat and -four equal
to Az, 900 bushels; corn, 7les0 bushels; oats,
SIS, 600 bushels.
Liverpool closed with wheat unchanged to
Id up and corn unchanged to Nd of.
Primary wheat receipts were l,254.ooo bu.
and shipments OF 1,122.o0o bu,. against re-
ceipts Of 2,645.o00 bu. and shipments OF
2,1s1, 900 bu. last year.
Primary corn receipts were 100000 bu.
and shipments Of 43s,000 bu.. against re-
