Wheat was dull and 1@134c lower, but very
steady at the decline, offerings not being LIBERAL
real cause for the easier feeling. Naw York was
lower, with larger receipts there and in Liver
pool, and our receipts look as it they are going
to average $4,000 bu per day; which is, perhaps,
more than our market can bear with a light ship
ping movement and tight money market. But
the knowledge Of the fact that our stocks are
very light at present. and that even those receipts
could be handled through next month by a
strong party who might take fancy to corner
the MARKET was sufficient to prevent more
decided drop. The fact is, that the great ma
jority Of operators are undecided how to steer
between the Scyl1a aud Charybdis above noted,
and arc, therefore, disposed to lie back on their
oars and do nothing. The car lot assemblage
money to operate there, and Of that material
there is q plentiful lack just now, very
many having been badly skinned in
some one Of the numerous corners in produce
during the past year. Seller December opened

Corn was dull and averaged 4c lower than yes
terdny, in sympathy with wheat here, and weak
ness IN New York. Added to this was the o. evan
ishnent" Of the fear that the market will be
cornered for this month, as some Of those popu-
1arly believed to be among the largest longs
have sold out--one Of them un1oaded to-day.
This fear dispelled, the corn men we're the bet
ter able to take square look countryWagd, and
try to form an idea Of the magnitude of the flood
that is supposed to be rolling this way,
with the extent of the depression that
will follow its arrival. Tho receipts Of old
and new corn, especially the latter, are expected
to be very liberal next month, and the new is in
spects rejected meets with liberal sales at re1a-
lively good prices-chiehy at 30c. Seller Decem-
ber was the leading option; it sold at 310D31h

Oats were rather more active, and averaged
X@Ao higher, under better demand, which
was brought out by continued reports Of greater
strength IN Now York, which led to some buying
to fill out q cargo for shipment. Cash oats sold
