The piece notes December’s stock vagaries tied to Congress and the 1890s market mood. It highlights panicky conditions in 1893 and 1897, a cautious current despite a tepid treasury proposal, and a mixed week with prices mostly lower except for a Wednesday rally. Wheat and cotton gains are seen as hopeful for exports and offset January Europe disbursements.
