CHICAGO , Dec. 8. ( Special Telegram to
( ho IlKK.1 The grain markets havu reached
ilcbntikblo ground and opinion ? ns to their
future course uro varied enough , The bears
hud thu best of It to-day and managed , as n
result of the morning's trading , to lower the
price for both corn and wheat for May
delivery about J4'c from lest night's close and
KC from fils morning's ' opening. Country
buying orders seemed to be bunched and
t-anio In all together early , and afterwards
local tulcnt had the markets pretty much to
themselves. That the country Is in and still
interested , however , was apparent from the
largo number of btrangcrs on the floor and
their close attention to the fluctuations.
May wheat opened nt 8. > ' c and under the In-
tluencu of an aggregation of small buying
orders from the country , immediately ad
vanced to Sfijtfe. Then short sellers begun
their work. The wants of the country
Hccmcd to be satisfied and the price dropped
to 84 % . Good buying by a local bull house
started the market up again and news came
Which awakened apprehensions of quick
turning local traders , who wanted their grain
buck again and bid for it until thu price
touched 85j > jfo nguin. A warlike dis
patch came from New York to the effect
that war risks on shipments of petroleum
were demanded ; also from the same place
that twenty-two carloads of wheat had been
taken there for export ; also that ono of the
heaviest .shorts in Now York was covering.
These were items of news which served to
tcniK | > rurlly strengthen the market. When
the closing time cumo there appeared to bo
HV.ch an ancient ilnvor about the war news
which hud been the most potential factor of
all , that a revulsion of sentiment followed
and down dropped the price again. May de
livery dropped to 84J < c again , but thure were
very few transactions at thatllguro. There
appeared to bo n persistent effort to break
prices toward the close , un occasional noy !
offer of iv "Fivu" at Si ; < e being made , while
there were a fair number of buyers at S4J < @
85e. The effort was unsuccessful , and at thu
1 o'clock close May wheat stood at Ssie. .Ian-
nary whc.lt opened at "ijc , sold down to
77Xc and closed at 77X077SC The nominal
high | > oiiit WHS T8i , < fo.
The corn market followed the fluctuations
in the neighboring pit very closely all the.
morning. In both corn and outs there was a
rush of buying orders at , the start , which
made the opening prices almost momentary ,
with but few transactions. May corn ,
which opened at 55c , nil advance
of } c over lust night's close ,
jumped to 5Go In a very brief time , and then ,
with the immediate country buying orders
filled , and ono of the heaviest local holders
hulling freely , dropped to 54J < c , again ad
vanced to f > 5 > fc , slowly sagged off to 54Jfu
again , and finally closed nt 1 o'clock at 54J < @
KM. January corn opened nt 50fo , which
was the highest poitit touched by that de
livery , sold down to and closed nt iji u.
There was fairly active trading in May
oats ut from 33u at the opening up to 34i (
on the split. The break In wheat ami
corn carried the price down to 33jjc , and at 1
o'clock X\yti'\G \ \ was the niarlcet. Janu
ary was nominally 3o ; e all through the regu
lar session , which was n snndo easier , am
oilier futures were notmentioned. - . The net
gain In May oats was lgo.
Provisions suffered a severe break. The
opening was reasonably strong , but before
business had progressed far the markc
weakened under the lead of a prominent
packer , who became an unexpected seller ,
and assumed n downward turn. In addition
to the selling of the pucker alluded to , trade
was also depressed by the unloading
of small holders and the comparatively
fair receipts of hogs at the leading packing
points. The weakness developed was also
continued throughout the day , and at , 1
o'clock pork showed a decline of 27Jsfg30c ( ,
lard of 10@12 > . c. and short ribs of 17jg20c (
as compared with last night's closings.

CHICAGO , Dec. S. [ Special' Telegram to
the liiiR.l CATTi.n The market was quiet
and steady as compared with yesterday
There were a largo number of outside orders
ami outside buyers , so that the chances wcro
that the ordinary run of fat cattle would bo
worked off at about ycsterdey's prices , if not
n shade stronger. Hig , heavy cattle , good
enough for Christmas stock , were selling at
the highest prices for the season. Nice ,
handy steers uru also selling ns well as last
week , b"t such do not form the bulk , of stock
on sulo. The pinch Is on plain , undesirable
stock of 1250 to 1350 Ibs , half fat and un-

NEW Yoitu , Dec. 8. [ Special Telegram
to the DEI : . ] STOCKS There was less scnsa
tlonal news from the continent and a more
confident feeling in London. From the lat-
tcr fair buying orders wcro received foi
Heading , St. Paul , Kric , Lnko Shore , Louis
vlllo & Nashvlllo and Union Pacific. Uoon ;
trailer * wcro generally bearish and arousing
every possible factor to scare holders intc
partliiKwith their securities. While then
was no increase in the volume of offering * * ! '
was noticed that whenever bids for blocks
were made they wore readily supplied. Thi
market dragged all .lht > morning and tin
early depressed fooling was augmented by i
reported dissolution of the cable pools. Tin
rumor was denied by President , Do Castro , o
the Commercial Cable company , and Hussul
Page says ; "There Is a discussion res pect
ing the division of business and the rear
rangcir.cr.t of percentages. Dissolution nni
n war is unlikely. The Western Union wanti
n better .division , " Prices dropped l } { poi
cunt on the report , and weakened the rest o
the list. Grangers were heavy and dropped
IdiUf per cent. Lucknwunnu also tihowci
increased wcaltneas and broke 1Y per cent
Richmond Terminal developed the t'rcutcb
weakness and dropped 1-Y per cent , The
stock was recently bid up before the books
cloicd , but more was seourod than wanted
nnd is being sold out. The Vanderbllts went
off a point on the report that the much talked
of extra dividends would not bo declared ,
the officers deeming It best to keep the money
In the treasury. Rending , although bought
more freely than any other stock , declined 1
jKilnl In sympathy with the general list. Dry
rot has got Into ( he market and It continues
to sag without any apparent effort cm the part
of the bears. The bulls are demoralized nnd
many unloaded during the last hours , The
closing sale on the majority of the securities
were nt inside figures , and recorded declines
extending to 2 % per cent , Hlchmond Termi
nal having the lead. Chicago stock houses
transacted a light business and the bulk of
that was on the short side.
