$119 which is al most 10c above the closing figures of a week ago The tremendous strength of wheat was in sufficient to offset in the corn market the effect of the cold wave now prevailing in this country As a esult prices were in clined to sag the greater part of he day A continued alack demand for the cash grain helped to depress prices During the final hour the market displayed a little

truthfully re flects the real situation Indicated a decrease 08 $3048350 In reserve bringing the surplus down to $6909826 This change was brought about through an Increase of $19217100 in loans and a corre sponding increase of $20577000 in 'deposits The grain reported in cash was $2095900 which was about half the amount indicated by the preliminary estimate The heavy in crease in deposits necessitated over $5000 000 In Increased reserve very much than offset the small gain In cash The aummAry of state banks and trust companies outside the clearingu house as re ported Saturday a decrease of $5 370200 in loans a decrease of a little less than $1000000 in cash and a shrinkage of about $7500000 In net deposits The ap proaching end of the year with its dividend requirements will

the Pennsylvania with Its engineers was a helpful influence in view of the importance attached to demands by railroad employes known to be formulating Attention was directed again to the Rock Island's sale of the St Louis San ran cisco by the report that the Chicago Rock Island Pacific Railroad had sold treasury bonds to the railway to the amount of $7500000 the proceeds to go for the re demption of the company's 5 per cent col lateral bonds to release St Louis San rancisco stock The inference would follow that thp price realized for the stock had come that far short of providing the amount required for the redemption of the bonds That fact was taken in connection with the terms of the original purchase by the Rock Island of the St Louis San rarfclsco stock whichbe sides the $60 per

grain men of the Northwest ars extremely bullish on wheat In fact it would be hard to find an exception among the lead ing factors in the trade of that section Grain men everywhere who handle any material quantity of the actual product appear to bs rapidly coming around to the belief that the 1909 wheat crop especially the winter grain was vastly overestimated by the govern ment Comparatively few still hold the be lief that the recent light marketings are due to a holding disposition on the part of the farmers Nevertheless the Society of Equity the farmers Is a rec ognized factor in the wheat situation in ths Northwest It is not believed that the winter wheat farmers are as well organized as the Northwestern Society of Equity was reported today as having advanced Its selling prices The grain trade was very much mixed by the various cables and quotations that came tn from Argentina' The Board of Trade pasted the quotations but before doing so cabled Broomhall for a confirmation This was promptly forthcoming The Dreyfus house at Buenos Aires cabled a confirmation of exciting wheat and flax seed markets strangely enough there were no other cable advices from Argentina

par Secretary MacVeagh today issued an order eliminating state city and railroad bonds from the list of securities which may be accepted for the deposits of public moneys In national bank depositaries There are 'now held by the government S10Q21500 of these classes of bonds as se curity for such deposits and the expectation of the treasury officials is that they will be promptly replaced by other bonds as It is not the intention of the treasury to reduce the amount of money In national bank de positaries The theory is that by this change the Panama bonds will be mdre at tractive to the banks

The report from Argentina which started wheat prices here on their long upward stride tvas an official dispatch claiming that the closing price at Buenos Aires yesterday showed a gain of ll011c compared with the final figures of the previous day The Inference generally derived from this unusual advance was that the wheat crop of the South American country had been in jured by unfavorable weather to a greater extent than at first realized The fact how ever that European markets failed to re spond to the bulge at Buenos Aires tended to discredit the report Shorts however were mad' extremely uneasy by the situa tion which combined with the Increasing congestion in the December delivery caused them to cover freely ail day The market was rather weak at the start mg cause oi me rauner ngni run ui receipts owing to a neciine or at xaverpooi at Chicago is because of the movement in December being at $116 and May at other directions A great deal of the corn $1120'113 Within the first fifteen mln in central and southern Illinois is going lutes however the price of the December oouki tu uh previous saiea ne present cold weather is quite favorable for filling of Southern contracts GRAIN PRICES CURRENT LOUISVILLE Ky Dec 18 No red 1126 No 3 red 6121 white 66c No 3 mixed 66c white 4Tl4c No 3 mixed 47c Northern S4c MINNEAPOLIS Minn Dee tXTVAa naAAmhar 1114 Mav 113 Cash: No 1 hard 115 No 1 Northern 15 No 2 Northern No 3 112 TOLEDO Dec 18 Cash and December $126 May $129: July $106 Corn Cash and December 63c May 66c July 66c Cash and Decem ber 46c May 47c July 45c Rye No 2 78c No 3 74c DULUTH Minn Dec 18 Close: No 1 hard $115 No 1 Northern $114 No 2 Northern $112 December $112 bld May $113 On track $201 to arrive $197 December $201 May $107 Track 43c LIVERPOOL Dec Closing: Wheat Spot firm No 2 red Western winter 8s 2d futures quiet December 8s 2d March 8s May 7s lOd Corn Spot steady new Ameri can mixed via Galveston 5s 9d American mixed old 5s 10d futures quiet January mixed 5s 5d January plate 5s 6d CHICAGO Dec Cash: No 2 red $1280129 No 3 red 26 No 2 hard $1190120 No 3 hard $1100117 No 1 Northern $1180120 No 2 Northern $1160118 No 3 spring $1100117 Corn No 3 yellow 5960c No 4 yellow 58c Oats No 3 white 44 No 4 white ST LOUIS Mo Dec Close: Wheat Higher track No 2 red cash $1810132 No 2 hard $1150120 December $117 May $114 Com Steady track No 2 cash 62c December 62c May 65c No 2 white 63c Oats Weak track No 2 cash 44c December 43c May 44c No 2 white 46c CINCINNATI Dec Quiet receipts 18000 No 2 red $1290131 Corn Steady receipts 27000 new No 3 whit yellow 61062c mixed 61061c Quiet receipts 13500 No 2 white 48c mixed Steady re UtUpiB DfVU'l JN i receipts 730 tons clover $1501625 KANSAS CITY December hid: Julv cember 61c May 64c bld July bid Cash: Wheat No 2 hard $1090115: No 2 13 No 2 red $1250128 No 3 $1200125 Corn No 2 mixed 62c No 3 No 2 white No 3 Oats No 2 white 2 mixed 43044c BUALO Dec 18 Close: Wheat No 1 white $129 No 2 white $1 28' No 3 white $126 No 4 white 11 21U: INDIANAPOLIS ROpUCK BUTTER Elgin prints 37c Elgin tubs 36c State tubs State prints 33c Country 21c CHEESE full cream new 17c Cheddars 17c Wisconsin full cream 17c Phil cream doztlA10 1BVUUB4U 0W13B new Imported Swiss CLOTH MARKET IS QUIET MANCHESTER Dec 18 During the week a few orders for light cloths of special qualities have been executed for China and India at fractional declines but merchants are still adopting a cautious attitude while manufacturers continue firm in view of the dearness' of cotton The turnover therefore has been small In yarns the business was again disappointing The United States Department or report on the cotton crop made spinners firm in their terms early in the week but the demand was purely of a retail char acter and barely sufficient to absorb the production of the curtailed week and values closed unchanged 4 red $122 No 2 mixed $129 No mixed 9124(3127 thrnnrh 4 No 2 yellow 65c No 3 yellow 64c No 3 yellow 64c No 4 yellow 63c No 2 mixed 65c No 3 mixed 63c No i 4 mixed 61c No 2 white 5c No 3 white 64c No 4 white 63c throurh billed No 2 yellow (old) in store 68c car loads No 2 white 48c No 3 white' 47c No 4 white standard 47c No 8 mixed 45e through billed: No white in store 46c NEW YORK Dec Rye Steady No 2 Western 84c nominal fob New York nomlnai I New York Spot eay No 2 red 127 elevator domestic and 1 36 tob afloat nominal No 1 Northern Di?
