CHICAGO , Dee. 10. [ Special Telegram to the
HKC. ] After u rather serious hammering
this morning May wheat closed at 1 o'clock
t Xft u lower III-R-C than Saturday unil } {
{ 2'fc ' lower than the opening to-day. There
was strength shewn at the opening and
towards the close and weakness in the mid
dle of the session , but fluctuations were con
fined within a range of J < ( Sc. Trading np-
pearcd to bo largely local , but commission
houses were both buying and selling und ap
peared to buy rather more than they sold.
The tnoht interesting topic for the traders
was the visible supply statement , and Its
showing of 1,3.16,000 bushels increase was
rather n heavy load for the market. A more
imtent influence toward lowering prices was
the fact that Hutchlnson was selling wheat.
Tills was what local traders had been wait
ing for and they felt more like selling than at
liny time since that heavy speculator took on
his long line of wheat. There were also In
dications of a vigorous attempt on the part of
somebody to smash prices without particular
regaidtothe methods used. An evidence
was the circulation of a rumor that a promt
nent bank was in trouble. As an offret there
was good buying for New York and for for
eign account , and at the close for two of the
heaviest local traders. May opened at Si > 'Be '
and during the early trading-sold down to
fca fSbUj e and up to WMiiWMc , then broke
to WJJfo , then gradually Improved and hung
within aliout } { G of bile. until Just at , the 1
o'clock close , when it advanced to KJJjf
( JiWlJ.iC and rested there. January wheat
opened ut 7i'OijC , sold up to 7l'4i,7tifo ( ' ( ( and
closed lit 1 o'clock at 7li ( 7ic. The low
point was nominally at 75Jfe.
Heavier receipts than expected and an in
crease in the visible supply of 4iOXK : , ( ) bushels
were too much for the speculative corn mar
ket. May , the active delivery , fell from
D4fe ( , which was Saturday's close and this
morning's opening , to 53K ( 53.5 < c. The llrst
downward turn carried the price to
MITf Mc , from which there was u
slight reaction to .Mjft'c. Then , with
other slight occasional reactions , the
break continued until Kcvns readied.
Then followed an improvement to F > 3Miti3Hl v.
Another drop to 532/te / and the 1 o'clock clo.se
was ut fty4diM % . Junuury corn opened at
4 } ? < c. sold down to 47e und closed at 4So
asked.
Speculative trading In oats was dull and
prices followed thedownward course of other
grain , but to a less degree. Increased re
ceipts arc talked about us u probable weaken
ing influence. May oats , in which there was
the- principal und utmost the only trading ,
opened nt Il-'ijfc and sold down us lowastUJ c
but closed ut 335 c. .tunuury oats opened at (
30Jc und closed nt . " ( ) < o asked.
The provision trade possessed n strong un
dertone. No inarKcd activity clmrnctcrircd
trading at any time during the day. yet the
market was closely watched , and the day's
prices , except for liird , were pretty much the
same us Saturday. Lard wus iirmer and at
1 o'clock stood ut an advance of 5Ki ( ! c.
Short ribs mid pork closed practically un-
chnngcd.

CHICAGO liivTTsTOCK.
CitiCAno , Dec. 10. [ Special Telegram
to the BEE. ] CATTLE Receipts show a , sen
sational reduction as compared with it week
ago , hence buyers who had imperative or
urgent orders were in the saddle early , which
incident in itself is equal to a slight advance
any time. Salesmen generally , unless they
had nice handy steers or something that ex
actly suited a particular buyer , did not report
liny essential advance. As compared with
Friday , sales could bo made more freely and
here and there n few nice , tidy steers may
huvo been sold at tin advance of lOc or there
abouts. Buyers declared that nil dcscrip-
> tlons sold higher , but these declarations in
these times must bo taken with a good deal
of allowance. The run of Tcxans was. light ,
nnd Komo of the best steers sold mnn advance
of 10@15c. Native butchers' stock was un
changed. The stacker and feeder trade was
quiet , as is usual on Monday , with little or no
change in prices as compared with last week.

Hoes Were 60 higher , yet at the close the
feeling was rather weak , both speculators
nnd commission men having stock on hand
that they could not sell ut the morning's
prices. Best heavy sold at $5.SO < < ifi > 2K , ono
lot of very heavy at $5.7K. Packing sorts ,
$5.50@5.75 for the best and $5 30 ( < i5.45 for

( Kfi.fl.1. Shippers should bear in mind that n
holiday is approaching that is generally ob
served by that class of labor employed obout
packing-houses , und that the said houses will
run very short-handed , perhaps some closing
down entirely.
