WAL/F.R United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. Dec. 4.—The stock market rose rapidly on short covering in the early trading, reacted to within a fraction of the previous close, turned dull and held steady through the remainder of the morning. As the noon hour approached tickers were barely moving. Longs were disappointed over failure of the list to maintain its advance so successfully started, but shorts were reticent about further selling pending indication of a definite trend. When the market was rising word went around that a group of opera- | tors had agreed to help bolster up the list in the hope of driving out the shorts. They anticipated a favorable Hoover message when congress opens next week and favorable railroad news would help j spread buying power. Sell for Tax Losses Against the market today, however, was the belief that the list had not yet met a real selling climax. This theory prevented many from participating. There also was considerable selling to establish tax losses and traders were not convinced the railroad situation warranted buying fttilro.d shares. They field the belief a iy relief in the form of higher revenue or wage cuts would go towara aiding bonds to the detriment of common stocks. New York Central was carried up to 33 !i in the early trading following word the company had applied to the interstate commerce commission for permission to issue SIOO,000,000 bonds. fhis was taken to mean the road had bolstered its credit position to take care of bank loan maturities and to provide working capital. Central Moves Down Central, however, did not hold its gain and soon sold off to 31%. Pennsylvania railroad held around the previous close of 22%. Other rails slid back. Chicago &; Northwestern preferred made a record low at 15 U, off ■%. Steel common touched 54 " in the early trading, slipped back to 53 1 2, and then rallied to 54, up % from the previous close. Other industrials behaved in about the same way. Radio preferred B broke to anew low at 12’i, off 2, following omission of the dividend after the close Thursday. International Harvester preferred broke to anew low at 110, off 6 and then rallied a few points. NEW YORK COFFEE RANGE —Dec. 3 High. Low. Close.

In the Cotton Markets
(Bv Thomson A McKinnon) NEW YORK, Dec. 3.—The story of the cotton market for this morning is nothing more than’’ a repetition of that. of Wednesday. Prices were virtually the same. The only feature worthy of comment was the absence of heavy concentrated selling which has featured almost all of the season for the past six weeks. In volume the market was far less than that of Wednesday and even Wednesday was anything but conspicuous for public participation. As it stands, spots are too high or contracts too low. We feel that the parity must be restored and lean to the opinion that New York is more apt to go up than Memphis go down. It is generally believed that the government cotton estimate is to be increased on the Bth instant. We do not consider it of great importance. The trade knows all about the crop now'.

SLACK DEMAND CAUSES DIP IN PORKERPRICES No Improvement Noted in Cattle Trade, Action at Standstill. Slackening in demand after j Thursday's firm trade caused a 15cent drop in hog prices this morning at the city yards. The bulk, 100 to 300 pounds, sold for $4.20 to $4.35; early top holding at $4.35. Receipts 1 were estimated at 8,000; holdovers! were 163. No improvement in local cattle conditions was apparent, the market remaining practically at a standstill. Receipts were 400. Vealers were steady in good and choice classes, others tending lower. The bulk price ranged from $7 to $7.50. Calf receipts were 500.

STRONG TREND , MARKS TRADE IN GRAIN MART; % Strength in Securities Is Factor in Upturn: News Bullish. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 4.—Strength in the stock market and strong foreign cables gave wheat a moderate rise on the Board of Trade at the opening today. Very unsettled and unfavorable weather in the south- j ern hemisphere caused an advancing Liverpool market. The advance was of small proportions at Chicago, with the deferred months leading. Corn was fractionally higher, with wheat, and on the unfavorable weather for movement. Oats held dull and steady. Milling Demand Good At the opening wheat was % cent to % cent higher, corn was un- j changed to V< cent higher and oats . unchanged. Provisions were about ' steady. Liverpool _made a fair gain during the change and was % pence ! to % pence higher at mid-after- j noon, equal to unchanged to % cent j up. The lower sterling had some j effect on the rise. A good milling demand and advancing premiums on cash wheat i is creating a stronger futures mar-! ket with a disposition to buy on all breaks.. Advances run into selling with the result that sharp recessions are frequent. Offerings Are Light Although country offerings of corn are light and western sections are paying premiums for the cash article, there is not sufficient of a shipping demand from day to day to absorb the moderate arrivals at Chicago. This has a depressing effect on the futures, although the disposition is to refrain from pressing sales on declines. Deliveries have been large, with more than 1.000,000 bushels delivered Thursdays. The weather is unsettled today with rain or snow. bats was slightly unsettled toward the close Thursday, but rallied on renewed talk of export demand at the coast. This has not materialized into actual booking as yet. The feeding and industrial demand is well maintained.
