CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, 111., December 6.—Thore was a
break In prices on the board of trade today.
It started at at out 10 o'clock. May corn,
which sold up to 56Jic, dropped to 545<c; May
wheat, which touched high at 85J£c, dropped
to84Kc; and May pork, which sold up to
515 70, went back to $15 57>i—all before 10 30.
It was attributed to the heavy selling of yes-
terday. May wheat did not go below 84,sc and
a reaction fj om tho break carried It back to
£6c. It was found that there were a good
many buying orders around this figure and It
held pretty close to 86c for sometime. Trad-
ing was cautious after the break and the ag-
gregate from 10.50 to close of session was not
as large as for the first hour. At 12.30 M ay was
StCoin sales'were very few at 54Kc for May,
and this proved Its bottom price. There was
enough demand for stuff at 55c to keep It
pretty close around that figure for practically
the balance of the session.
Provisions furnished a very uncertain field
foi the speculator. May pora went down to
$lB35be(ore the break was checked. From
this figure it advanced to $15 60. an d at 12 30
was back to $15 47},'. Jauuary option followed

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.
New York. December 6.-The stock market
was less active to-day, with a material decline
In values throughout the entire list. Heavy
sales In London caused the decline there,
which was tat en advantage of by tho bears
and tracers, who are ranged on that side at
present, to hammer the market here, and
though there was a good cemandforall ac-
tive specialties, and the general temper ef the
room was conservatively bullish, the pressure
In the afternoon became too great for the
limited demand. There wasa good borrowing
demand for stocks of all kinds, and tho short
interest le again be level to be very large.
The banner weak stocks were Ualon Pacific
and Jersey Central, thongs all London favor-
ites were prominent In the deelloe. St. l\iui
was also pressed for sale, an I It was tlio lead
Itg active stock throughout the day. Closely
followed by Union Paclllc and Reading and
Lackawanna, though the latter was very well
held considering Its late marked weakness
The only exceptions to the rule were Quick
sliver stocks, wheeling and Lake Erie and
San Francisco preferred, all of which succeed-
ed in closing with a small advance. Tho mar-
ket opened heavy to weal 011 moderate bnsl
nets, with prices generally off from X'&.i pur
cent from the final figures of last evening, but
the good demand causcd a Pactional reaction
In the. general ll.%t, whl!e Wheeling and Lake.
Eiie rose l.V per cent, This demand soon
slacked eff, however, and the steady pressure
sagged the-list off again, though the trania;
tions *ei e after tho nrst houron a very limited
scale. Vigorous dashei were made at the list
Just after noon,'and again at 2 p. m., which
brought the list down to the lowest figures at
about the delivery hour. Union Pacific and
Jersey Central were most conspicuous lu
leids, though tho latter was very quiet. A
s ight recovery was made I11 the last few mln
utes, tut the close was heavy at or near the
lowestpiices reached, Railroad bonds were
dull, and as a rule firm, though a feature win
wtnkness in Kaisasand TexasIssues.and tort
W01 til and Denver firsts Sales, $il69,060. G >v
eminent bonds were dull and heavy to weas.
