CHICAGO, Dee. 20 The aggregate trading
IN wheat, to day, was unusually large, but the
feeling was unsettled and prices generally ruled

wheat came from New York, and as the offerings
were free on this account, they tended to lower
prices. May delivery opened at $3.50, or

opening in corn was a shade better; the price
advanced &c, fell back &c. but rallied and
closed at about the best prices of the day, Oats
ruled steady. and closed at about the same fig

bought freely at the opening and advanced

coded 10 020c, rallied 10@15c, but fell back To-
l2aac, and closed at inside figures. Lard was %
05c lower per 100 lbs. and short-ribs receded
l00129c per 100 lbs. The leading futures ranged
