Green q Co. In their report on futures SAYS:
business was OF fair proportions, with slight
| irregularity on value, but the general average
| is somewhat better, and the close 8(l4 points
| above last evening. Trading was to large
| extent on local account, ana the general ten
| dency appeared to favor unfolding January,
with considerable buving back of later
months. Thisl last feature was the principal
stimulus. 1t Is thought some shorts have

CHICAGO. Dec. 29.-The aggregate trading
in wheat to-day was unusually large, bat the
feeling was unsettled and prices generally
ruled lower. Cables came in strong and eX-
lort clearings were large, but the amount Of
wheat on the ocean passage disclosed an in
crease OF 100000 bushels. which had an ap-
parent tendency TO depress values. IL was
also known that several large orders TO sell
long wheat came from New York. and as
offerings were free on this account they tended
TO lower prices. May delivery opened at S65zc,
fell on steadily TO 85lzc, but began TO rally
towards the close and closed at bBIzc. Corn
