CHICAGO, Dec. sO.-Trading on Change to-
day was light in all the speculative pits. but
the tone WAS hrmer for all cereals, and there
was a slight advance recorded in values all
round. The aggregate trading In wheat was
only moderate and fluctuations we're confined
to a range OF nc, closing 10 the latest trading
at nearly outside figures; foreign news was
not encouraging, and what little strength that
was accorded the market was owing 10 the
fear Of freeze In the korthwest. There was
a slightly stronger feeling In corn and oat.,
due 10 an improved demand and light receipts.
Provisions we're little steadler aud closed a
shade higher. There will be no session Of the
board Friday.
Flour unchanged. wheat a little nrmer,
closing y 0sfc higher than yesterday; regular,
