CHICAGO GRAIW A.U PROVISIONS
Femtarra f tha Tradlaa- ssd Closing
Prlcea Board of Trade,
CHICAGO, bee. 111. Despite the bullish
nature of the government report the
wheat market today closed weak. Mis
leading reports as to a break in prlcea
at Uurnos Ayres had much to do with
the setback. Latest trading here varied
from o higher to V4'So down, as com
pared with twenty-four hours before.
Corn ftnlihed HQc lower; oats off
iic and hog products at an advance of
1 here was an early advance In wheat
owing to the shrinkage In the Washington
figures on the yield In the United Htates
for lfl I and also because of a frceh drop
In receipts northwest. The sdvance, how
ever, proved to be disappointing to dealers
who had attached large importance to
the government estimates. Accordingly
selling set In on a heavy scale and hung
like a weight on the market for the rest
of the dev.
Argentina advices seemed badly con
flicting and an alleged break of 4o on
the curb at Buenos Ayres was magnified
Into a serious affair, whereas the reg
ular market at the Mouth American cen
ter showed Inter only a fraction decline,
Another Influence that counted against
values was a good stxed Increase of the
' world's avullahle supply total. I'nder
such odds, prices displayed hut little
power to rally, between the opanlngiaiid
the close Mar ranged from Wa to
SI.OoN, with last salea Vd'tc net lower at
The corn market was weak. May fluc
tuated from to fe'fcc, closing steady,
tut 'AftViO down at 6ic. Cash grades
were in fair demand. No. I yellow was
-not Quoted.
Oats acted heavy fiom the first. Top
and bottom prices touched for May
turned out to be 4Mo and 4Me. with
the close 45c, a loss of Ho from last
night.
Provialons were steady. Pork had risen
17VM to Wo at the last gong, Willi lard
nd ribs chalked up liltaliVsC higher in
cost.

CHEESE Firm, New York full erearaa.
NEW YORK, Deo. 19. Stubborn reslst-
ance was offered in the stock market to
day o the renewal of the attack which
depressed prices yesterday. Tha bears
naa the Wabash receivership to lien
them.
But the market Dosaessed a degree of
underlying strength which put to naught
the efforts cf the bears. Prlcea fell off
after the opening, but declines among the
standard issues were ems 1 1,
Interest centered In the Wahash ae-
curltlea at the opening, although no vio
lent oecllnee were expected, since Wall
street was too well acquainted with the
road's financial condition to be taken
off its guard. The declines of the com
mon and preferred stock and the 4 per
cent bonds ranged between 1 nnd 2 points.
The common stock touched 64, the lowest
price since 1907. and the preferred 14U.
the lowest In three years. The bonds fell
to CO.
The state iirnt that arranaementa had
been mode for tiayment of the Interest
on the bnnda on January 1 led to heavy
buying of these securities, which rose
to w, a gain or 2' 4 on the day. Both
classes of the stock made partial recoveries.
United Htates Pteel touched 69'i. an
overnight gtln of 14 and the highest
price since Heptemher. I-ehlgh Valley's
recent advance to the accompaniment of
reports of a possible extra distribution
to stockholders was halted. Specialties,
Including the fertilizer shares, Interna
tional Harvester, National Biscuit, Amer
ce n Meet Hugar and name of the In-
deMndenl steel companies, made good
gains.
Business was active and broad In the
bond market. Total sales, par value, 14,-
52&,ooo. United States bonds (were un
changed on call.

ter 01 Ia.i'1, nowever, there was a tew
sales of cattle that looked even higher
than that. Practically everything in
aignt changed hanaa in a very short
time alter tne market opened.
What has been said regarding beef
steere would apply equally as well to
cows and heifers. They, too. were active
sellers at prices that were loc higher
man yesteroay, to say the least, ana ev
erything Moid In a very snort time.
'the country demand tor Blockers and
feuders thus far tnis week has proven
very light. Speculators had cattle on
hand today for winch there were few
buyers, and they In their turn were very
8iow about talking on hand more stock.
Aa a result tne demand lor what few
stuck cuttie and teeners were In today
was light and the market Blow to lower.
It must be remembered, however, that
stock catue and feeders did not decline
to the same extent as killers last weea,
o that tney were still hign after taking
into account any weakness that may have
been developed today.

HOOS The main phase of hog trade
appeared In the an ol supply as related
to breadth ft Ooiiuiiid. Kooeipta were
large and orders heavy and pienliful, es
pecially toward the close of the session.
Prices opened steady to sirong and
quickly became strong to a nickel blgner
under the stimulus of free buying, late
business usually allowing the full ad
vance. Klgbt around U.utv head of stuck
arrived, au estimate tnat cleared com
pletely before lw:8o o'clock.
Oifeiinga afforded a free choice of
weights and duality, the same aa recently,
but averages under 33a pounds proved tne
rule, and really heavy hogs maue up leas
than one-fourth ot the total. Km p pare
lavored. good butcher animals and bougnt
only an odd dosen loads in all. not enough
to have any influence upon the general
trade.
If anything the range In values closed
up a trifle, the best heavies on sale land

SH REP Two separate markets ..i .1
for good and medium classes of sheep
and lambs, attractive corn-feds ruling
active, steady to stronger In spots, while
me common armies proved rather slow,
with trend to values earlier. Discrimina
tion In packing circles was more plainly
iiuwn man rerenny ana tne spreads be
tween fair and well conditioned stuff
widened more or less. One of the reasons
lor-tnis pnase or the trade was found In
the character of sunrilv. The Hiimniad
total of 6.&H) head consisted largely of
e....i i-i.iiioiieu eiocn.
In fat lambs a 36.00 top was 'made on
some strictly choice nutlve.t, the best fed
westerns selling tip to 85.80. Fair to good
fat lambs landed below 35.60 in most
Instances, 85.25 buying offerings that had
left the strong weight feeder class several
weeks ago.
Matured muttons moved within spreads
almost as wide as those apparent In the
lamb market, but the inquiry for bulk of
wethers, ewes, etc., seemed to be more
responsive than the demand for lambs.
Extra good lUO-pound fed western wethers
reacnea 4.w ana a dozen head of 197
pound natives also landed at the even
money. The natives were show sheep,
pure-bred Cotswolds. Fat ewes sold all
the way from 33.65 down to less than
3X00, but anything moving under 83.28
lacked finish. There were not many
yearlings on sale, 84.50tf4.75 helng quota
ble for something hlnh-irrRrte in this linn
Nothing happened in the feeder market
early for the reason that supplies were
very scanty. Firm prices were paid for
the few bunches that moved on country
orders late in the session and the situa
tion as a whole remained unchanged.
Yesterday's entire feeder buy amounted
to 4.0U0 head.
Quotations on sheep and lambs: Lambs,
