If y y 1 , S-l THE STOCK iOKEI, : E a r l y s t r e n g t h a n d a G o o d B a n k S t a t e m e n t F o l l o w e d by R e a l i z i n g . Speculation to-day was dull, professional and lacking In conspicuous features. Pro- icssional sentim e n t early was confident on the- prospects of a good bank statement, and which was la t e r realized by au increase m the surplus reserv e of over $12,000,000 oHd a cash gain of slightly over $15,000,000. Gains were for the most p a n confined to fractions, and this was particularly true in regard to the usually prom i u c n i rails, al- ‘though gains of a point or over were made in a few issues, and notably Texas and ^ J ’acific and Baltim o r e and Ohio. Colorado Fuel was strong and was helped by the reports th a t railroad in t e r e s t s had bought •*a large block of the stock. L a t e r profit .-taking, however, caused this issue to close ^ 'a t ' a ' loss. There was no London m a r k e t and no in- »-fiuence was exerted from th a t quarter. After ^;/the bank statem e n t aj^peared there wa.s '•general profit taking; This cut down the gains in. all issues, and m a n y issues closed . ab o u t unchanged, and quite a number \vith small, decline. T h e close was rather heavy compared to the early bouyancy, and it • w a s i-ppareiit th a t the larger interests took ; advantage of favorable opportunities to re- ’ fndT (luce th e i r holt’.ings. This selling was re- ; ported as coming m a i n l y from the Gates interests. , There was a continuation of the (lull and listless professional dealings at the opening and with Initial price changes limited. In spile of this narrow n e s s , however, there . was an apparent change for t h e better in t h e . speculative tone and this was-indicated by ; the' f a c t that, t h e buying orders were l a r g e l y ! In excess of the offerings and with a fair i volume of the sm a l l volume from commis- 1 Sion houses. The outlook for a good bank ■ ? sta t e m e n t and the prospect of i b e continued 1 ease of the money m a r k e t not being dis- ■ t u r b e d by any Im m e d i a t e gold exports were ! ’th e main factors. A favorable effect was i produce(l by the announcem e n t th a t all the ‘ anthra(;ite roads., would follow the advance i m a d e in that product by the Reading sys- ; tern. No Influence was exerted from J abroad, owing t o th e holiday at London. T h e r e was l i t t l e feature to the early mar- ; ket. although m o s t of the im p o r t a n t issues ; BCore(J small gains, including Reading, SI. Paul, Baltimore and Ohio common, .Atclii.son, ; Norfolk and W e s t e r n , Southern Pacific, i Union Pacific and Copper. Texas and Pa- ! ;X!ifle also gained early . a small fraction, as ; did a num b e r ,of the specialties, including ■ Colorado' Fuel and Pressed Steel Car. To- \ ward the end of th e first hour there was fu r t h e r strength developed in Texas and P a cific, and Its gain extended to about a point. By this , time Colorado Fuel also increased Its gain to about a point and there were r u m o r s of favorable developments regarding th i s property. C o t t o n Oil continued etrong a t ' ^ n advance of t h e increased dividend out look for next m o n t h . Other strong issues were Consolidated Gas, General Electric, New York Air Brake and Sugar Refining. The railroad list de veloped firmness In sym p a t h y but the rallies In this section were confined to moderate fractions. W a b a s h developed firmness. V-rRoom t r a d e r s were buying on the continued |0,,O p r e d i c t i o n s of. a very favorable bank state- g/' m e n t ’ a n d also on the theory th a t the good \ . outstanding short interest would be forced .;to do some covering If the m a r k e t welcomed a favorable bank exhibit with any bullish L demonstration. . T h e bank statem e n t figures, while-extreme- \‘■ly favorable, did not come up to the expec tations of the m o r e optimistic. The gain In cash was nearly as great as expected, am o u n t i n g to ?17,000,000. There was an u n expected Increase in loans of .$5,500,000 and deposits were swelled by $10,500,000. The surplus reserve was increased by $12,173,000 and now stands at $17,781,000. The surplus reserve “ex\ the am o u n t held for govern m e n t deposits would be $27,831,000. Circu lation was increased by $2,272,800 or the larges}. Increase in,,on.eweel^.mad.e in over two years. Up to. the appearan c e of the bank state- -ment th e m a r k e t held very firm and in spite of t h e dullne.ss. 'Texas and Pacific and Bal tim o r e and .Ohio w e r e -the active leaders and w i t h a gain in the former of well on to 2 p e r ' c e n t , an(i of a point in . the latter. New York (Sentral, I l li n o i s Central and Rock Island' also showed g a i n s of a point and .stout fraotionaf gains were held ,in Missouri ; Pabiftc,. Southern Paciflo, Atchison, Union Pacific, P e n n s y l v a n i a Railroad, Louisville and Canadian Pacific. The gain in Colorado Fuel am o u n t e d to over a point, as did the advances in Consolidated Gas, General E l e c tric and Cotton Oil. , ' A general selling movem e n t followed the ' bank statem e n t and th e r e was some com m e n t aroused ^ y th e good increase in loans which was unexpected, although held to he ,?, due to syndicate operations. Prices melted In practically all issues. Much of the sell ing was by room trad e r s , who did not care to go home long of stocks. Large opera to r s were also said to be active in the sell- Ing, although- the lack of buying orders caused the w i t h d r a w a l of s o me of the llqui- dating.orders. Texas’ and Pacific was about the only Con spicuous issue- th a t retained its firmness, and It .clo’scd n e a r the top. Baltimore and Ohio reacted sm a r t l y and lost all but a sm a l l fraction, while the gains in' Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific, ‘ Missouri Pacific, Atchison, St. Paul. Pennsylvania Railroad, R e a d i n g and-Erie were all %vlped out or r e duced to very sm a l l fractions.

Colorado Fuel also Bold off sm a r t l y and closed with a slight nMB as compared to Its early gain. Cotton Oil also closed off from the highest.

A l ist of .questions is said to have been sent out to t h e sm a l l e r finishing m i l l s , shipbuild ing companies, railroad m e n and large con tractors. It is understood th a t the questions are concerning business for th e last three months, ana w h a t the prospects are for the next, t h r e e .

F r a n c s ............ Reichsmarks. G u i l d e r s ......... Sterling ciui.t The conditions prevailing in the wheat market became a little m ixed at the close of the n'cek. The movemoni of prices this month showed an advance of between 5 and 6 cents, then a moderate reaction, a recovery to about t o p prices and on Friday aflrrnooii a sudden slump. ' This slump wa.s accom panied by reports of inercusiug interior stocks and increasing nioveint-Tit of winter wheat, particularly at St. LouLs. The out look for the growing crop Is favorable, and spot demand reported at the seaboard is extremely ilat.^' With these conditions pre vailing it has made a local m a r k e t rather ir responsive. On the other hand, foreign mar kets are very steady, notw i i h s t a n d l u g the enorm o u s outward movement of .-Vinerlcan wheat. B r a d s t r e e t ’s .figures for tlie past week being record breakers for fourteen months, and the total for the season is rapidly catch ing up with last year's enorm o u s aggregate. Production of flour is enormous all over the country, taking enormous q u a m i i i c s of wheat, and the Pacific coast m a r k e t s are very strong. Between such conditions op erato r s have been mixed, although there Is a growing fear that the great number of holes which needed to be filled with the lirst crop movement this year have been preuy well ev(?ned up. The news to-day was of easier cables and quiet foreign Iniorosi. but there wa.s a decrease of 200.000 bushels for the week in deliveries of English what, while Danubian exports were only a million bush els Broom h a l l estim a t e d world’s exports at 12,000.000, on account of the enormous ••Vmerlcan exports. Northwest receipts were 902 cars and Minneapolis and Duluth stocks have increased about 1.300.000 bushels for the week, against 300,000 bushels gain last week, while estim a t e s of a good increase in the visible at 2 to 2H millions were cur rent. Pacific coast reports were again very bullish. The m a r k e t was quiet aucl very steady during the morning, improving a l i t tle at the close. Exporters took ten loads wheat and ten of rye. •The trad e In corn has been very irregular and alm o s t entirely speculative in character. The m o v e m e n t s in the Chicago m a r k e t have been th e resu l t of heavy sales reported by the .‘Vrmour interest, followed by decided recovery, with claims th a t a new bull party was in control. Speculation is large and, with th e small stocks, prlcc.s are very nerv ous, a s It is still uncertain what is likely to be th e volume of contract supplies at the West du r i n g the m o n t h of December. Re ceipts arc fair, but. a r e in no sense oppres sive. and stocks are very .small at all points. The w o a i h e r ha.s been very fine for nearly three weeks and, if such conditions con tinue, the effect on the m o v e ment and on the g r a d i n g is likely t o bo quite important. The foreign m a r k e t s were -quiet to-day. Danubian exports wore 23S.000 bushels for the week. Liverpool to-day received large quantities of . \ r g e n t i n e corn. Receipts AVest were good, w i t h th e ' i n s p e c t i o n quite satis factory. There is Increasing movement of new corn in the Southwe.st, and yesterday K a n s a s City received flftj’-three carloads of new corn, oi which fifteen were reported contract. The m a r k e t was quite active dur ing the m o r n i n g and, Influenced by soft w e a t h e r West, very firm, reacted, but closed nervous. E x p o r t e r s took eighteen loads. The m a r k e t has been dull and indifferent this week in oats, prices showing small movement, and it has been overshadowed by the large crop reports and continued fair movement. The m a r k e t to-day was quiet and ab o u t steady, showing very limited .spec ulative interest. Hog products have been moving Irregular ly, with futures Influenced by t h e fluctuations in live hog prices. To-day t h e live hog m a r ket was lower on good receipts, with fair trade. A Chicago au t h o r i t y estim a t e s the lard stock at 8,000 tierces, a decrease for the m o n t h of 27.000 t i e r c e s : t h e ribs at 4,500,- 000 pounds, a decrease of 6,500,000 pounds, and po r k at 29,500 barrels, a decrease for the m o n t h of 5.000 barrel.s.
