The Mark Lane Express In Its weekly lovl'jw of the British grain trade during tno past Woc ! s.iys : English whotits have fallen Is. The supplies are large.

Counselmnn ft Day to Cockrell Bros. : The speculative muikuls were dull todav and rulefi easier couorally but closed without material change. In the visible supply statement there appearo to bo 1,750,000 bushels of wheat ulloat on tbo lakes. This with the visible Increase caused some local selling. A iio decline was recovered ut the close on buying , partly to cover local shorts und moderately on out side investment orders. Private detailed advices continue to show u larger outgo of wheat und Hour than the aggregates posted In the dally public statements. Even the lower tlgurcs show an enormous rash demand and the reports of French and Itusslan shorts today save an lin- ptilso lospocnlutlvo miylng of Into futures. The market may remain normal for a few davs or oven weeks longer , butwobollovo that u largo amount of bull energy may break loose and assort Itself any day. Corn and oats were quiet and firm , except January corn , which was active , erratic und hard to trade In. Sales covered u l ! c range and closed ? > o higher. Other futures about steady , Provisions opened easy under sales by a prominent pauker and speculator. Tbo largo run of lion's made prices lower and brought out some scattered liquidation of long Janu ary pork , bold In commission houses. The majority of the packers weru buyers and they absorbed tlio offer ngs gradually und tlio mu. - ket rallied slightly , but closed tame. No im provement is likely until receipts slacken. OlllCAdo , 111. , Dec. 14. F. U. Logan & Co. to J. Bunds Commission company : Wheat Opened weak at USe for May , with very llttlu dolnir. On the visible Increase of 5fiO,003 bu. there wns come selling , causing a decline to UT'je. On this decline tllero was some good buying nnd prlcos at once returned to 08lao and closed at VSo. Foreign advices are dull and In some cases lower. This market for the present will not bo inllucnced much by them , Seaboard clearances , Interior receipts and unfavorable weather will have more Inllucnco than uny- tblng e ! < > . Opinions on the mat ket are di vided. The believers lu higher prices ate ex treme In their views , and tnoho who look for a decline do not talk anything lower than about 95u for May. Wo think the- buying Hide on weak markets safe , Corn rather moro aetlvo than It was Saturday. The feature wag the buying of January by commission houses. It sold us high us48o. The wet weather caused thostroncth. In oats llttlo doing. Piovlsjons fairly aetlvo and sternly. Hog tcuolpls heavy , puckers meeting the demand. ( JitiUAoo. in , , Duo. 14. Kunuett , Hopkins fc Co. , to 8. A. MuWliorlor : Foreicn advices Imvo bail a more ilUvauruglng tone today than for home tlmo. Prices are generally lowerund cMiort business lifeless , wlillo clearances wuro below expectations. The wheat Holds are bare everywhere und It Is conceded that u cold wave , without snow , would bo likely to turn the market upward , but tlieiu Is no Immediate prospect of one. At this season , however , a cold wave Is a certainty , but the Shorts evidently bollnvo there will bo tlmo enough to tuke action when It comes In ilght. The IncreaseIn the visible supply Is small when It Is conildorcd that a large do- oreino last week WUH not satisfactorily ac counted for , anil It wan believed that It would show a very liberal Increase this week ns an off-sot , Thu market has been largely looal and price changes few , The situation warrants u rally , tint much will depend on the tone of the foreign markets. There wore good receipts ot cum , moderate demand and depressed cables , and a largo In crease In the visible supply , but the market allowed llttlo weakness. Tlio weather was wot. Interfering with grading , and thu specu lative sentiment U so bullish that prices nro held with compar.itlvu eueo. ( Juts were slightly onalor , with rather less de mand , Tlio continued rush of liogs to market U n depressing Inllu cnco In tlio provision market , but the demand for Investment account absorbs tlio offerings , on soft spots , and bean do not make much hcadw.ty ut raiding the market from tlmo to tlmu. They look to us cheap onoiiu'li to buy. s rouKa AXII .UOA nn. NBW YOHK , Doc. 14.
