LOCAL FINANCE AND TRADE Collections Slow; Deposits in Pank Increasing and Money in Iletter Demand. Wheat and Corn Firm on 'Chance tatter Cereal Not Afff cted lUrt by the Advance in the East Turkej ilarket Improving. MONET AND STOCKS. Local Clearances and lUltucei Still Large Deposits Lan Collections Slow. Among the local banks the situation as regards finances is reported to bo abont the tamo as for last week. There has been some increase in deposits. Wholesalers report collections not so good as tbey should be at this tirao in the year, and, ia consequence there is a bettor demand for loaus. The increase in deposits is considered to bo largely da to larger transactions in cattle and pork products. Hank clearances yesterday were fSSO.teC'Jt: balance. $141,7fc$.2tt. On a corresponding date last year they were: Clearances, STlO.teS.W; balances, $121,450.40. MCW YOliX QUOTATION. At yew York, yesterday, money on call was easy, ranging Xrora 21 to 3 per cent, the last loan being made at 3, closing offered at 3 per cent. I'rimo mercantile paper, 5 and C per cent. Sterling exchange was quiet but firm at HfclU for sixty-day bills and ii.li lor demand. Tho total sales of stocks were 03,805 shares, inclnding the following: Atchison, 11.4C8; Canada Southern. 5.SC8; ChicagoGas. 0,?0; Delaware. Lackawanna & Western, 7.CHO. Erie, 15.010: Lake Shore. S,G00; LouisTille fc Nashville. 14,010; Missouri Pacitic, ll.C',5; Northwestern, 3,310; New York Central. f..lC0; Northern Pacitic. 6.370; Northern Paciiic preferred. 43,045; Heading. 7.000; St. Paul. 14.530; St. Paul &. Omaha. 3.300; Union racilic, 5JSO. The stock market was a little more animated than usual for the last two weeks, and, while displaying on tho whole a tirm tone in the general list, the pressure brought to bear by the professionals on o few stocks gave a rather weak character to tho market. The movements in most of the list, however, were, like thoso for the past month, smaller and insignificant, and while there was good buying of many of the prominent shares, notably the Vanderbilts. the industrials and Louisville, there was a special pressure madenponthoNortbern Pacific stocks, and later on Missouri Pacific. At the name time. Union Pacitic sympathized with the weakness in these chares. Pacitic Mail was sold down on the loss of its new steamer. There was during the day undoubted evidence that a buying power is in the market, and the purchases of commissionhouses pave a strong temper to the forenoon's dealings, which even the vigorous selling of the Villards failed to impair to nny great extent. In addition to this the trading in the coal stocks looked gTeatly like coverings, ami those shares were firm throughout the day on very light transactions. Thero was a lack of news of a character to bare much influence upon the course of prices. Northern Pacitic preferred was under the hammer throughout the entire day, and its early loss was significant, the common following closely, but it was not until late in the afternoon, when Missouri Paciiic was attacked with such vigor, that the general list gave evidence of being affected by tho pressure. The opening was generally at small advances over Saturday's prices. Notwithstanding the weakness in the Villards the general list, led by the Omaha stocks, the preferred rising m per cent., rose fractionally. The tirm. strong tone developed lasted until well into tho afternoon. More activity than any previous time of the day was then developed and prices tumbled quickly in the stocks attacked, the rest of the list following reluctantly and slowly. The final dealing gave additional evidence that covering was tho object of tho attack and a slight rally closed the market iirm with most of the list at opening figures. The linal changes for the day were generally insignificant and abont equally divided between gains and losses, but while Chicago (iaa is up 1 and Omaha preferred 1U; Missouri Pacific is down and Northern Pacific preferrtd 13. L'ailroad bonds were more active than usual of late, and while in the list tho temper was somewhat mixed, the rise of 7 per cent, in the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago consols, to 1014, gave the key to the market for the day. Other changes, however, were generally of no importance. The Atchison incomes contributed 111.000 and the Wabash seconds SlliMXK) to the day's total of $1.4'J5,U0t. Tho number of issues traded in was even larger than usual for the past week, and the tone was generally firm. Government bonds were dnll and steady. State bonds were dull and without feature.

No Local Eflect 1'roduced by the New York Murket Good Corn Ulns Held I'.ack. On 'Change yesterday the cereal situation showed wheat and corn to be firm and oats quiet. There were inspected in nine cars of wheat, thirty-onoof corn, one of oats and three of hay. Payers for export have as yet felt no cfiect oi the advance in corn in Eastern markets. Western markets are all dull on account of large receipts of poor corn. The better corn is not coming in freely, the weather being scarcely cold and dry enough to put the corn in good condition. The result has been an urgent demand for spot corn in the East to nil contracts. This resulted in an advance yesterday of 4 cents in .New York, but it did not allect the market for the lower grades.

Vhere farmers have gone intelligently into the handling of small liocks of sheep they have usually procured such results that it has been an object lesson to their neighbors and induced tbem to do like wise. This is why so many more small nocks are to be seen uow ail over the couutry than was the case a few years ago. To carry a small Hock in connection with the diversified industries of the farm, and in order to still further di versify them, is a wise policy, and we hope to see it even more generally adonted. No branch of tho live-stock business can be made more prolitablo in a Biuall way. nor will return more for tho capital and labor invested. One reason for this is that there are so many channels through which the revenue comes. There is the rapid natural increase ul the Hock, the annual proceeds from the sale of woo, the food value, the enrichment of the land and their services in cleaning laud, which is always worth considering, because they are the best weed exterminators in the world. Another reason why sheep are more profitable than tbey were in the past is becauso the average weight of the ileeces produced in the I'nitcd Mates now is double what it was thirty-fouryears ago, nnd along with this gain in the tJeoce has been almost a proportionate increase in the size of the carcass and the quality of the meat. It is these high-class features that have made the business more profitable and more attractive than it was in the past, and development along tho sumo lines will do as much for any branch of agriculture. Coyer your rhubarb and asparagus with plenty of manure, which will show its good eflect in the spring. Salt tho asparagus beds slightly, and rake oil' all dead grass before applying the manure.

'BULLS'' GREATLY ELATED.

Generally Believed tho Government Crop lieport Will Advance Wheat. The Chicago Article Shows Dullness, but Holds Firm Corn Causing Disappointment bj Its Failure to Come Cp to Grade. TRADING AT CHICAGO. Many Futures Fluctuated Somewhat, Finally Closing at a Gain of a Cent. CHICAGO. Dec. T.-Wheat. whilo de cidedly dull, was, nevertheless, quite firm. Cables reported somo advance in the English markets, with New York and other domestic markets inclined to firmness. Shorts'7 were disposed to cover, and tho "bears" were less aggressive. There were pretty good buying orders here from New York and St Louis, but the selling was slow and cautious. The active local trade was bullish, with Mitchell. Lindblom and Uaxter the leaders, but in the absence of decisive bulr' news during tho forenoon it was hard to advance prices much. One of tho strong factors was the report that the government would embrace the condition of winter wheat iu its roport, which is exnected next Thursday, and there is a general feeling that it will be quite unfavorable and liable to start prices upward, bence the desire on the part of the "shorts" to cover. Uncertainty hs to what the visible supply report would show had a tendency to restrict trade during the morning. The generous fall of snow over the winter-wheat belt is regarded as a much-needed protection to the plant, which is less able to stand the rigors of adverse climatic conditions than usual. The receipts at Duluth and Minneapolis were much smaller than they had been estimated, giving testimony to tho severity of tho storm in the Northwest. The export clearances were moderate, and late cables were steady, without material change. The market remained tirm. with a slowly advancing tendency till the visible supply lignres wre posted, and then there was a sudden and sharp advance, because a decrease of nuarly 1.000.000 bushels was shown, whereas au increaho, estimated by some as high as 'J.OOO.eoO, was looked for. May opened at UTMj'S'JT against 9T5sc at the close on Saturday, sold slowly up to I'SHc, held steady for a time and then jumped to 1'JW, sagged oil and closed at Corn was strong early, then sagged ofif, but reacted later. The receipts were over 250 cars iu excess of tho estimate of the inspectors working on Sunday. The grading, however, continues poor. Out of Gil cars inspected only twenty-one cars graded contract. The clear, crisp weather was looked upon as indicating an improvement in this regard. The clique was not doing anything to sustain values, and was rather on the other side and sold freely on all the bard snots. It is for its interest to keep prices down for tho time 'being to about shipping margin so that it will have less corn to take care of, and if there is any squeeze it is for the clique's interest to have it develop near the close of the month. The market developed more strength after the noon hour, inainlv on a sharp advance in New York, which started good buying here, led by Carter Martin. December and year opened unchanged at 473bC, advanced to 47a4c; broke, to ilHc, reacted to 477fcc, and closed at 47 c. May opened at 43c, advanced to and closed at 431ac. Oats wvro quiet and steady, with very little change in prices. Hog products were dnll, but inclined to tirmuess on account of the decreased re ceipts of hogs. January pork sold at Sll.l2M'311.0,. closing at $11.23. against $11. 15 at the close on Soturday. Lard and ribs followed pork. Tho leading futures ranged as follows:

MINNEAPOLIS. Dec. 7.-The markets generally were very dull. The longs declined at first to put their wheat out, but when they did oiler a morsel it was grabbed by the shorts with suttlcient relish to tndicato that somo one would like to cover when opportunity ottered. Near the closo of the session the bull feeling was more strongly developed, and the pit was filled with excited traders. There was an advance of o within fifteen minutes just before tho close. It was evident that there was quite a short interest to care for, for May opened at 02 4 0. and set out at an advance at once. It took but a few moments to reach 92c, and thero it held for an hour. Some predicted a break when the next move was made, but the advance was held, and when shortly, 12:0 o'clock, it passed 03c there was a hustle along the line a hustle to sell Vc above the board, and a hustle to buy at the advance if nothing less was ottered. In this way May soon reached 03c. December was lost sight of, and trading was very light on this option. The cash market was fairly active, with an advance in prico over last week.
