rfFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH-1
t Xetv York, Dec. 30. To-day's stock
market was of the usual holiday character.
A few stocks received attention irom the
professional element, but the great majority
were neglected. .The traders made efforts
to advance prices until it was announced
that ?500,000 gold would be exported
.to-morrow. It was explained by the
bankers making the shipment that
the specie goes forward against bills
sold a week ago, which means that they
have been unable to cover their drawings
with commercial or other bills. A selling
movement followed this announcement,
bnt as prices did not yield very much the
stocks sold were bought back in the
afternoon. The strong features of
the speculation were Manhattan Kailway,
Sugar Eefining. Ghicago Gas and Northern
Pacific preferred. The market for Manhat
tan reflected sales to realize profits until
shortly before the close, when the street
learned that the rapid transit commission,
having failed to dispose of its franchise,
had granted an audience to the special com
mittee of the Manhattan Kailway Company,
annotated a short time ago to take up the
subject of additions to the company's facili
ties. In Sujar Kefining and Northern
Pacific, proterred, higher prices appeared to
result chiefly from the coveting of shorts.
Effective buving of Chicago Gas was gener
ally attributed to interests identified with
tne company.
Keadmg was exceptionally weat and
closed lower than yesteraav, suffering tho
only noteworthy net decline. It is cur
rently lepoited that tho company has suc
ceeded iu raising, through the Finance Com
pany or Philadelphia, sufficient funds to
pay the interest on at least its first
and second preference bonds. The fact
that the company is compelled to borrow
money for the purpose is not favorably con
strued. Tho market for Heading was also
unfavorably anected by inlormation from
trustworthy sources, that is gradually be
coming public, that lioth the Lackawanna
and Delaware and Hudson companies will
xhovv in their annual statements that they
have profited largely by the efforts of the
Reading and allied companies to advance
and maintain the price of anthracite coal.
iloliej- on call was luirly active and rates
were higher than yesterday, owing to the
sailing of Joans incidental to preparations
lor Interest disbursements next Tuesday.
Resides, accommodations secured to-day
weie for three days. Tho market for
sterling exchange was very quiet,
bnt a brisk demand is expected eaily
next week from bankers who will have t re
mit collections on account of coupons re
ceived Horn Euiope, and also Irom im
porters, who as a rule come into the market
soon alter tno llf.-t ot tho yeir. These tran
sactions will be offset to an extent in the
money market by heavy disbursements lor
interest.
tSPECIAL FnOM row. JOKES ACO.J
'rwJYoEE, Dec. 31 There was a strong
bullislt leelins before the onening this morn
Ing and a momentary ,d-vtin ve innde,
hut the shipment of $500,000 gold by-Kutin.
Loch & Co. gave everyone's nerves a severe
shock, especially as shortly afterward it
was found tuat the lecent veakne&s in ster
ling had disappeared, some people going so
lar as to say that it was an artificial woak
nes.E, the tupply of bilU being very poor.
Tho check to tho market was quite
lasting in certain stocks, especially so
In the coalers, and even nlien it
was known that the shipment was made on
an old order and could not be made at ex
isting rates for sterling the market as a
whole did not show much rallying poer.
The advance in money to lOpercentin tho
iftcrnoon served to remind people that
hero was still danger in the situation, al
though it was known that the high rate was
duo to the shifting ot loans over the first of
the year. Speculation in the active list
under the influence of these two lactors be
came contracted nnd traders were inclined
to adopt a cautions policy.
The sl.aip advance in Manhattan and
Sugar in the last hour rather tended to
ievle a bullish sentiment, but at the close
tne temper of the room was considerably
less conncent than yesterday, and the sil
ver situation nas more generally canvassed
than or late.
Apart irom the gold shipments and the
continued lirnine-.f of sterling the news was
.enerally t-ivorablo. Radical railroad leg
islation, however.against the Western roads
is threatened in Nebraska, and causes some
limitation in the granger stocks.
Lehigh Yalley's October statement means
a surplus lor the jear of $000,000, nalt of
which goes to Reading. Reading will
probably dispose some collateral trust bonds
early in the year, and the rumors that an
issue of thira incomes is pending are re
peated. The Northern Pacific Investigation Com
mittee say they have discovered nothing in
the company's affairs to ju-tify prevailing
apprehensions. They will issue a report
early next year. The lumber traffic, it is
ald, will result In enormous profits to
Northern Pacific
Union Pacific has now $16,010,000 guarantee
trust notes outstanding.
. The Rapid Tratisit Commission met this
afternoon and leceived a full committee
Horn Sianhattan. Picrpont Morgan an
nounced zhat Manhattan would act on any
suggestions the commission might make for
improving the service. It was understood
after the adjournment of the commission
tha; the underground plan had been given
up and that the commission would consider
otqer pians.
sterling dull but firm. The non-arrival of
the Umbria with a large quantity or cou-
ons is one reason for the dullness in the
ia:ke'.
The most striking Incident of the day was
an announcement irom Sir. S. V. White
that he has paid the lust of his outstandin
obligations with interest to date. Jlr. White
failed a little over a year ago as u result of
an effort to corner corn, although It bus
been supposed that untaltnrnluess on the
part oi certain brokers had something to do
with the result. His liabilities exceeded

tBV ASSOCIATED TEESS,
Nmv York, Dec. 30. At tho opening or
business Manhattan and Lackawanna ad
vanced IU to 152 and 155, 1 espectively.
hilo the general list improved to the ex
tent or Hl per cent. The upward move
ment received a temporary check when It
became known that $500,000 gold had been
engaged for shipment to Europe by the
steamship La .Norinandie to-morrow, this
having served as an excuse for an advance
for the rate for call loans from 6 to 10 per
cent. Manhattan gave way 36, and Lacka
wanna 2J per cent, but the general list whs
not materially affected, as it soon trans
pired that the gold shipment was made on a
special order and that the banks and trust
companies were willing lender of money,
the rate lor which declined to S5 per cent.
The extreme decline outside 01 tho stocks
named was ljf per cent in Beading, which

WHEAT A SHADE LOWER,
Corn and Oats Somewhat Higher and Hog
Products Buoyant.
Chicago, Dec. SO. The annual jubilee in
terfered with business to-day. Outside or
ders were scarce in the wheat pit, There
was some talk about what the visible sup
ply statement would be likely fo show, and
it was expected there would be an increase
or about 1,500,000 Dusbels. The receipts in
tho Northwest weie smaller, thus confirm
ing reports that the heavy movement in
that section had ceased. Farmers' deliv
eries in the Northwest were very light, and
it is claimed that recent accumlations cm
side tracks are about cleaned up. Fluctua
tions weie confined within c range, and
the closing was about Je lower than the
closing prices or yesterday.
In corn the feeling developed was steadier
and values ruled somewhat higher. Initial
trades were at the final quotations of yester
day, the market was easy and sold off a
traction, hen the demand improvod, and
on buyiug by parlies supposed to be acting
for the country the price advanced e,
eased off slightly, ruled steady and closcu a
shade higher. The buying was supposed to
cover "short" sales made some time bacK
against crio corn, holders now taking their
protits and Btandiug "long" against the
same. There was some buying or May and
selling ui j -o Bfc uuuui 1.11B same ugure.
The demand lor oats was sufficient to ab
sorb the supply and cause an advance otc
Arter a slight reaction the market closed
steady at about the top figures.
The provision market was strong and
from lOo to SSc higher for port, 2c to 5c
higher for lard and from 7o to 15c higher
4or ribs. Tbe improvement was attributed
to the statistics of the har movement.

FBTDAiyDec 30.
"With the exception of a sale of 1,000
shares of Duquesne traction at 27, the
market for local securities to-day was quiet
and rather uninteresting, the sales being
for small, odd lots and the bids and offers
about the same as those made the previous
day, Philadelphia Company was fraction
ally firmer, presumably on expectations
that the statement ior the current quarter
will be a very bullish one and
Central traction gained a fraction,
but there was no noteworthy
change, in anything else on the list. A
thousand-share transaction is rather an
unusual occurrence on the local board, but
the transaction in Duquesne excited but
little comment, and may therefore be con
sidered as of no special significance. It
was whispered, however, that the stoct
went into strong hands.
The unlisted 'street railway shares closed
as follows: P. & B. traction, 24Ji25;
Duquesne traotion, 27J27Ki .. A. & il.
traction, 443.
Generally speaking bi okers are very san
guine with icgard to the near future of the
market. There are few things on the
usually active list that are cousldered high,
and it Is accounted certain that the rein
vestment of the January disburenients
will result In mateiially higher prices for
many of the favorites.

J. S. Bactie & Co. to Oakley & Co.: Bead
ing was the only weak-stock On tho list, and
was influenced by the story of a new bond
issue: the great troublo with this, system is
that the president of tho company is too en
terprising a man, and ir spreading ont at
such a quick rate that conservative men are
becorainir nervous. The general market
ces strong, as money was quite easy, con
sidering it was the last day of the month,
while the sentiment throughout the country
is of a bullish character. Still, the situation
of the silver question Is such as to make a
irreat advance impossible. Tho bulls say
that the law will be repealed but the smart
est politicians are or the opinion that nuth
lnsr can be done this session.
From Sprout & Co.'s market letter: Money
was firmer in the morning and the rate ad
vanced to 78 per cent, beine quite firm at
S6 per cent ut the close. The tact, how
over, that no real stringency was apparent
and that the supply at the quoted rates was
talr seemed to have some influence, so that
in tho last hour of tbodava goneral cover
ing movement set in. "The list reflected
these influences and seems desirous or clos
idg the year with a bullish tendency, though
the general conditions have not changed to
an extent which would Jnstify expectations
of a decidedly bettor market.

Friday, Dec. 30.
Operations on the part of the city and
nearby retailers were fairly liberal to-day,
as they usually are on Friday, especially
among the produce commission men, but
the markets as a rule were barren of note
worthy features, the 'movements being only
in ' response to immediate requirements.
There is nothing doing in the way of stock-lng-up
and In a general way the year is clos
iair up -quietly.
The leading feature of the grocery market
at the moment is the activity and strength
of canned goods.
The northwestern Miller in its last issue dis
cusses cue congestion of tbe flour market on
both sides of tbe ocean by xiverproduction,
and urges millers of spring wheat to unite
in measures calculated to produoe a parity
In prices of flour and wheat.' It.is u very
Important question and ennuerns wheat
dealers as well as flour manufacturers. It Is
claimed that at present prices fioUr cannot
be mado without loss, and thia-la a depress
ing element. Cannot winter whoartmlllers
also unite upon similar purposes?
A report irosi Jamestown, N, D., says th
outlook for tho coming year is favorable as
far as spring wheat larmlng Is concerned.
Considerable rain and snow fell at the open
ing of winter, and the soil has absorbed con
siderable moisture. The roads are lu fine
condition and stimulate the marketing or
bin sweepings of wheat.
It is estimated that the quantity of wheat
in farmers' hands in the Northwest January
1 wi 1 be 37,000,000 to 10,000.000 bushels, against
80,000,000 to 85,000,000 bushels a year ago. This
estimate Is given by tho elevator people in
the Northwest.

A DULL CLOSE IN IRON.
Prices Irregular, With Ressemer and
Gray Forge Weaker.
SOFT BILLETS BARELY STEADY.
A Few Indications of an Improvement
Iarly rxt Tear.
A FAIF.LT GOOD VOLUME OP SALES
Friday, Dec. 30.
There has been a large falling off in tbe
demand for leading descriptions of raw iron
and steel. As most of the mills are under
going repairs, "they will be in no hurry to
start up until there is a better demand.
While some fix the date for an improve
ment in trade at tbe middle of January,
others say it will be the first of February
before there will be a revival of business.
Soft steel is making such inroads on iron as
to promise that in a very short period it will
have usurped the place of the latter alto
gether. It is more economically manufact
ured and yields more profit than muck bar.
Eeports recently published show that
many pnddlmg furnaces have been
closed down for lack of orders,
evidencing the fact that the uumber in
operation was in excess of requirements.
"While the leading furnaces are not forcing
the market by ofiering concessions, a num
ber of transactions are reported at prices a
shado below the quoted rates a short time
ago. Certain dealers appear anxious 10
realize, but there are others who are con
tent towuit and take the chances or tbe
market. At the same time the shading sys
tem is hy no means general, but the knowl
edge that orders for the small lots taken
have been placed at a slight reduction on
previous quotations causes the market to
exhibit a uepressedand unsettled condition.
In the present staie of tbe pig iron trade
there is little in the situation to
wairant the belief that prices will
shortly improve, although, statistically,
the market is in very satisfac
tory shape. Consumers' yards, uenerally.are
bare or stocR; purchases cannot, therefore,
be postponed'iudeiiiiitely and as deliveries
are being taken freely there U a possibility
that the resumption or active buying after
the opening ot the new year may enable
holders to maintain prices, or even secure a
slight advance.
A Few Words Prom the East.
An Eastern dealor says of the situation:
"Sellers are beginning to recognize the fact
that buyers have hold ou so long that they
must of necessity be In the mark of early in
the new year, so that it is hardly worth
while trying to persnadu them that delays
may be dangerous. Kailler in the month
there was considerable pressure to realize,
and while holders are still anxious for busi
ness they begin to feel that .bey have about
reached the extreme limit as regards prices,
lor which reason it is not uuliKcly that a
period or reaction may be near at hand.
Everything Uepends on developments dur
ing the next 20 days, ir consumers really
need material to the extent that is
supposed it will soon show iiself,
and that is precisely what both sides are
trying to And oui. Taking everything Into
consideration it is not unlikely that just a
tiiflbol improvement will be the next turn
in the market. There are too many sellers
to permit anything very decided, but al
most any kind of demand will be sufficient
to counteract further weakness, and, al
though the closing week of the year suows
prices to average the lowest on record, and
the outlook not specially encouragiug.there
is, at least, the satis.'act.on o knowing that
under any circumstances anj tiling beyond
a mere fractional decline iu prices is simply
impossible."
Closing Temper and .-ales of tho "Week.
The market closed weak for leading de
scriptions of iron; gray forge declined 10
15c; Bessemer dull and unchanged; soft steel
billets quiet. Dealers are indifferent about
Dusiness, preferring to await the develop
ments of the new year. Tno week's transac

No Features at Cincinnati.
CraciKKATi, O., Dec 30. SDec aU
Rogers. Brown & Co. say: There is no
feature connected with the iron mar
ket for the closing week of the year that is
worth especial mention. Manufacturing
concerns generally are addiesslng them
selves to the work incident to closing tip
the business year. Furnaces are satisfied to
keen up with deliveries on running con
tracts. There is a somewhat better supply
of cars and less complaint Is heard of de
layed shipments. Iron Is going forward on
old orders at an unusually rapid rate, but
the now business is nearly all lifcarload or
100-ton lots. Only one or two large con
tracts wero heard or during tho week.
