CHICAHO , Dec. 2.1. [ Si > cclnl Telegram to the
UF.R. ] CablcB came In stronger on wheat
this morning and there was enough of yes-
cnlay afternoon's boom leftover night to in
duce a Rood mnny traders to believe prices
were going right up. Accordingly May
wheat opened at STtc. There wu heavy trad
ing and plenty of grain for snlo. The buying
was scattered and buyers were soon full and
running over. The price dropped under In
equality of parties until May stood ut 84e ,
nnd even at this figure there seemed plenty
of wheat for sale , but the break stopped
there. The result was a reaction , which
reached its culmination with May wheat at
WX 1 , although for a long time prices ruled
about Vcrf'fe ' below that figure and the 1
o'clock close was 84J c. January wheat
opened at " " - ( ( tTTJjO asked , sold up to
nnd closed ut 77 * < < - ' - After lively trading
about the opening the pit was generally dull ,
with occasional spasms of activity. There
was undoubtedly considerable evening
up by traders who do not care
to risk the possible events of a three days
holiday. The first board cable quoted sK > t
praln firm in Liverpool and an upward ten
dency for futures , and a late cable quoted
nn advance of Jjd in the price of red winter
nnd sprinir , with all futures higher.
The speculative corn market was very
dull and lluctuatlons In May , the most active
future , but > ' „ ' > In January delivery the
range was only ' < c. There was no news
of importance calculated to influence the
course of prices and the trnde was chiefly
local. May corn opened nt 5-l' c , which wa
yesterday's close , and solifup early to 54 Vc ,
but during all the latter part of the sessloii
the only fluctuations were between We anil
M ) iand the 1 o'clock close was at .Me ,
January corn opened atIBJ c , sold down to
and closed nt 4Se asked. The Liverpool
cable quoted s | > ot corn firm and } d higher ,
and March futures higher and nearer futures
unchanged.
There was unusual activity in the specula
tive oats market nt times to-day and fluctua
tions were frequent , though amounting to
only , ' e altogether. All of the trading wus
in May delivery and much of the life of the
market was attributed to the scheme of one
heavy local trader , who is nctlug upon the
oft-repeated assertion that the difference in
the priceof oats and corn is unnatural and
cannot last. May oats opened at : Mc , which
was ' /c higher than yesterday's close , fluctu
ated between that price anil SSfo and closed
at 1 o'clock at ttlJii/ZIHo.
The provision market was quiet. Trading
was largely of a spasmodic order and mainly
local , and the day passed without special
feature , save a brief boar movement Just be
fore 1 o'clock , The closings were at easier
than last night's final quotations , though the
decline actually suffered was only 2) ) QJI21J'c
on pork , 2J.jur ( > c on lard and 2 c on short
ribs. Of the light trading witnessed May

doned flvo minutes after the opening and the
crowd devoted the balance of the session to
foolishness. Pork and corn were lower.

CHICAGO tlVK STOCK.
CHICAGO , Dec. 23. [ Special Telegram to
the llei : . ] CATTI.C Trade was not ns wild
its yesterday. Hotli salesmen and buyers
steadied down to the ordinary routine. A
few easy sales were made at the advance
noted yesterday , but later on the urgency of
the buyers seemed satisfied und inter sales
were a good lOo lower. Values nro yet 40(7 ( ? !
fiOo higher than last week. Receivers are
rather anxious over the arrivals for tomorrow
row , many looking for 7,000 to 8,000. Then
there Is considerable speculation as to next
week's supplies , most people reasoning from
the fact that the big and sudden ad
vance of Thursday und Friday will
bring a rush of cattle to the
market , with a sudden and sharp down turn.
However , bo that as it may , about every
thing was sold out when the market closed
to-day. Common nutlva stock , such ns thin
bulls , old cows , etc. , wore about as low as at
any time. But few Toxuns were on the mar
ket to-day. Stockcrs nnd feeders were
steady. Shipping steers , ISM to 1500 Ibs. ,

IlfltiH Business was rather slow. The big
packing firms are employing all their well-
known tactics to get prices down , but so long
us they have to compete with the present lib
eral shipping demand , the "hammering"
process must necessarily bo slow. The
strength in the provision trade and shopping
demand nro obstacles packers may meet in
their effort to lower prices on hogs. To-day
best heavy sold nt $5.7XS5.75 , or a good 5o
lower than yesterday. Puckingsorts , $5.350 ] )

for improvement in the near future. Light
