THE COPPER STOCKS. BOSTON, Dec, 27.—Money at 60 per cent in New York was the cause of the weakness in coppers at the close.. The buying this morning was strong and confident all through the list | and refiected the feeling of the public toward coppers. In the afternoon, however, the high rates for money prevented any further buying end stocks sold off freely. Atlantic was weil bought and showed a sharp advance, North Butte opened with small sales at 80, but quickly sold off to 85 at the close.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.—The wheat market was weak at all times during tne day. A decrease of 711,000 bushels in the world's visible supply was the only encouraging feature of the day's news for the bulls. At the opening the market was depressed by the heavy movement of the new crop in the Northwest, arrivals at Minne- apolis to-day being reported at 695 cars. Stocks of wheat at that puint showed an in- crease of 1,100,000 bushels and this weakened values here. Then came reports of a weak market in Liverpool, caused by that the movement of wheat from Argentina will commence January 15, wnich s two weeks earlier than last year. Primary in this country were to-day almost double of last year, being 1,005,000 bushels, against 537,000 bushels for the corresponding day one year ago. Deepito the heavy preponderance of bear news, bull leaders slipported the market lhrnugnnu( the session by llberal purchases of May. “Tor this ‘option. the lowest point of thé day was reached at 86%@S6%c. The close was easy and %@ic lower at STR@8T4e. Despite iiberal local receipts the corn market was firm throughout. Trading was not heavy. May closed 3¢ up at 443c. The oats pit was deserted mearly all the time. May closed at ¥c lower at 31%@32c. Proyisions were weaker because of an easfer market for live hogs. The feature of the trading was sales of lard and ribs by packers. At the close May pork was off 10G12%o0, lard Was down 7lc and ribs were 234@bc lower.

Poultry and Game. The Poultry market was in good shape for gellers, there being a brisk demand for ail kinds of fowls and close clearances of desir- able offerings in the Chicken line were readily eftected at stiff prices. No Western came in and the receipts from domestic points were only 65 coops. Four cases of dressed Turkeys arrived, all _but one of which went direct to retaflers.
