CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISION!
Feateres ef the Trading; and Closing
Prices on BmN of Trad.
CHICAGO, Deo. 1L Big receipts In tha
northwest on both aides of the Inter
national line exerted pressure today on
the market for wheat. Largely as a re
suit the close waa S?o under Saturday
night. Corn ahowed a net loss of So to
H'tfo and oats mjjWo. At the end of tha
day hog; products war down from 6o to
lfrl2Vto.
From tha outset bears In the wheat
pit had the advantage, being aided by
the fact that taea serious oases than
expected were shown In today's crop
svdvloea from the Argentine. A more Im
mediate and potent influence, however,
developed la reports that Minneapolis and
luluth had arrivals totaling MM cars, aa
ea-aliurt Til a year ago. Moreover. Winni
peg seat word of 1.421 car there, aa
compared with Xei the corresponding day
last year. In this connection the United
Ktatea visible supply Increase, although
' smaller than had been looked for, made
a rather forcible contrast with a falling
off twelve months back. May fluctuated
between ty.fj c and KHc, with tha
final tone firm, but o down, at
There was good commission buying.
Which kept com strong when other grains
were weak. May ranged from A2Hhtt'SC
to (3d, closing firm. So net higher, at
fcc. Cash grades were steady. No. I
yellow was quoted at WriTle for carlota.
Hhorts did most of the buylmc In the
eats crowd. Top and bottom prices
touched for the May delivery turned out
to be 4Hc and 4eic, with the close Vo
tip at 4S'iiS,tKSc.
Some of the larger packers sold provi
sions through speculators and broker.
"When the pit was cleared pork was 10c
to lOffll'o less expensive and other prod
ucts off from 6a to 7Hi-I0o.

NEW TURK, Dec. 11 -Wall street
heard more good news today than for
many a week. The stock market, which
has been very heavy of late, responded
with generous gHlns. Union Pacific was
raised 3 points above Saturday's clore.
United States Steel and several other
gained 2 or more points. It was assumed
at the outset that the markeet would re
flect the favoiable bank statement for
last week and the large train In unfilled
orders for November reported by the
nuea mates jjteel corporation. Uienlng
nalns. however, were small and were not
long maintained.
Before noon the character nf th mar
ket changed again and during the re
mainder of the session prices were on a
higher plane.
An ndtled market factor was the an
nouncement of an advance In the price of
copper, sales of which were quoted at
MSc, the highest of the movement, of
greater Importance as a market fa:tor
was me announcement that United States
Steel had raised Its prc:e for wire and
nails.
I'he especial strength of Union Pacific
may be traced In part to the action of
the supreme court In restraining the In
terstate Commerce commimlon from mak
ing effective the proposed reductions In
intermountaln frelKht rates. All of the
northwestern toads which are Hlrwlv
affected mnde good gains after announce
ment or tnis decision.
1 he tenor of the report of the Hadlev

CA'i'l'LK Receipts of cattle were quite
liberal this morning, being the largest
lor a Monday smre three wee ago
There was, however, a good buying de
mand, but still advices from other selling
points were not especially reassuring and
buyers were a little Inclined to go slow
and feul their way.
Beef steurs were about steady with th
closo last Friday, but It will be remem
bered that cattle closed a little lower
last week, so that today's market might
be described as weak to lotjglDO lower
than the high point on ThurBuay of last
week.
What has been said regarding beef
steers would apply In large psrt to the
market on cows and heifers. They were
In faot-steady with the extreme close
last week, but lower than the high point
on Thursday.
The supply of strictly good feeders, was
fair and the demand very good. As a re
sult the trade was active, with prices
generally a little stronger than last
week's close. Oood western feeders sold
as high as 26.IW. The medium grades of
both stockers and feeders were at least
steady.

HOUS Tone to demand for lions was
more or leas backward In direct contrast
to free buying on Saturday. Packers
pointed toward lower advlcea from other
points as an argument for cheaper cost
and Ignored a limited supply locally.
Trade ruled fully a nickel lower under
the pressure of combined bearish efforts
and the bulk of a 8u-car estimate sold on
tills basis.
Business proved very, uneven at the de
cline noted and there Were periods In the
session when tVolOu breaks were plalmy
shown. Movement lacked activity from
start to finish and In a general way the
market was little more tnan a series of
lulls and quiet buying rounds. Shippers
and speculator furnished fair support,
total orders not In the handa of packers
calling for something like a dozen loads,
mostly good butcher weights. The yards
were practically cleared before 11 o'clock.
Lard, butcher and bacon varieltlvs sold
at the high, middle and low spreads, ru
spectlvely, but margins between the
three grades appealed to bu a little
.alter than usual. The beet heavies
landed at 20.10, a dime less than Satur
day a lone top, and good butchers sold
around 2o- Bulk of llgnt offerings range!

SHEEP Packers needed a good supply
tt sheep Itvmbs VO keep killing guia
t work, but were Inclined to delay pus
chafe until the last moment, aa most of
the other market center were pretty
well filled, lending more or lee promise)
to a lower scale of values. This attitude
failed to get them very mucb stock, and
with the rank and file of seller holdm
out for steady figures, early buyer wet
forced to settle on a firm basis.
Supplies amounted to fully 11,000 head
nd consisted largely ol corn fed and
warmed-up classes. Only a handful of
ranee stuff was Included In the run, and
about half of the offerings that cam
under western billing carried wheat stub
ble finish, suitable for slaughter.
Despite the alse and character of sup
ply, the market opened In quiet shape at
well sustained prices, choice cornfed
lambs bringing aa much as 16.01), An
extra good kind of fed westerns moved at
2.1.75, and some stubble feds found a pack
inn outlet at 2o. 65. There were pleMy of
heavy sheep on sale, but good handy
ewes or yearlings proved the exreptlOJi,
ewes being quotable up to 23.75 and yeaf
linKs of prime quality claiming a limit of
24.75. Toppy fat wethers landed at 23.80.
Feeder business had a scattered, uncer
tain appearance, but the situation as a
whole showed no changes worth mention
ing. The country demand has dwindled
lo extremely small volume, snd even
though feeder orders were plentiful, cur
rent receipts do not offer a very ' good
selection for finishers having shed or
barn protection. Warmed up western
ewes are going back for a final flnlBh at
and near 83.00. while strong weight feeder
lambs are in fair demand at 24.6U&4.66.-
