ALL SALES AND PRICES ON NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE MI

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-A good
uart of the, ground gained IN
the sharp rally of industrial and
utility stocks in the first tnree
sessions of the week was loSt as
the result of concerted bear
attack" on the market near the
weekend. 1t was the old story
of the hobgoblin appearing with
flaming ewes to devour the help
less orphans left stranded with
stocks purchased at the peak
prices Of the move, with bor
rowed money, as evidenced by the
$33, 100000 increase in brokers
loans.
THE passing. Of the first flush
Of enthusiasm over the promised
results of the Presidents confer
ence with industrial and business
leaders was followed by realiza-
tion that the most OF the bene-
fits of industrial expansion, ETC.,
cannot reach the average man
until early next year. Mean
while business leaders have be-
come reconciled to a season of
poor business in December and
a Hnlping rather than a leaping
recovery in the early part OF
1880. Thus far the big mercan'
tile stores have been quite salts
fled with the Christmas shop
ping volume, Which has been sus-
tanned by the maintenance of
wage scales and industrial en-
ployment.
The market was upset in the
last day or two by the confirmed
reports of the resumption OF gold,
shipments from the, New York
banks to London, the reaction TO
which was the lowering sof the
Bank of England's rate from 5a
to S per cent. Except to make

ate outward movement of gold

The banks are in strong position.
with brokers' loans the smallest

Under the lead of United States
Steel. which forged ahead bril-
liantly to l89, the high level of
the recovery, and a few OF the
best actors" in the utility and
speciality groups, the markets re-
covery continued without inter
| ruption in the first three sessions
of the week. The bankers were
suspected of having boosted q
number of the high grade indus
trials a little too fast for comfort,
in an effort to iquidate their
holdings at the best prices OBJ
tainable since the break.
T11e out-of town banks which
have been Carrying" numerous
customers and depositors in the
form of loans against listed stocks
have also been anxious to nqui-
date and thousands of shares of
the better grade of industTials

ket this week have come from
this source. This selling was wen
absorbed and the market prob

count of itself but for a we'll

WORLD WHE: 1T
CROP SHR|NKS
BY Universal Service

Sharp drops in the wheat crops
OF Australia and the Argentine,
chief American competitors, was
reported yesterday by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture here.
Weather and present crop con.
ditions indicate that the total
production of the two countries
will be less than 100000, 900
bushels, as compared with 50O,-
100000 bushels last year and an
average yearly production for the
last S years of $50 900 900 bushels.
It is likely that the two coun-
tries will ship less than 125, ,OO0,-
900 bushels for the year, as COM
pared with twice that figure
last year.
Argentine conditions have been
highly unfayorable to wheat, with
severe and long susta in d
droughts. Less than four inches
Of rain fell from February to
May, as compared with mean
average rainfall of 11.3 inches,
and the temperature has been
too high for good yields.
