CHICAGO, Jan. At was one OF those mar
kets again which operators In wheat could not
decipher. The action OF some large operators
was mysterious and misleading, and while fiuctu-
tons were not wide, the feeling nevertheless was
unsettled Most Of the trading was on local ac-
count, outside business being reported light.
The opening was about the same as yester-
days closing, and under free speculative offer
ings prices declined 1c. The selling was
attributed to prominent local trader, but at the
decline or at about$ 4ls for May there appeared
TO be an active demand. and although that figure
was touched nearly half dozen times and once
went just barely below, the demand as suffi-
cient to prevent any further shrinkage. The buy
ing appeared to be quite scattered. and under
steady demand, just before O'Clock, prices again
touched outside figures, closing steady and about
ssc lower than yesterday. Corn ruled exceed

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
Trade Quiet and Prices Generally Firm-An
Improvement Looked for Next Week.

Trade Quiet and Prices Generally Firm-An
Improvement Looked for Next Week.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 4.
As is usually the case the first week in the year
trade carries a very quiet tone. Travelling men
arc at home, but all are arranging to start out
next week for business, and seldom do they COM
mence a year under more favorable circum-
stances. Prices ruled steady to-day in the prod
uce markets. The supply of eggs and butter is
increasing with the mild weather, and weaker
prices are indicated, shippers paying bulls cents
for eggs to-day. Sugars and coffees are in a very
strong position, and a further advance in the
latter article next week is indicated. Canned
goods are firmer in tone, packers having sue
ceeded in convincing dealers that stocks are
light: Dry goods men are having quiet week,
and a considerable per cent. of their wooden
goods will be on hand with the opening of spring,
unless cold weather soon strikes this territory.
Other goods are moving out more freely.
GRAIN.
There was a fair attendance on Change to-
day. Offerings were small, and the trading on
one side, all being buyers if they could get cere
ais at the prices they offered. The remarks below
show the feeling of the local market and the
fluctuations In values:
Wheat-The receipts are very small and little
prospects of improvement. Prices are compare

The Ups and Downs of Wheat.

CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-The wheat market was
seemingly narrow to-day. The aggregate vol
ume of the trade was considerably above an
average, though the session was punctuated by
periods of distressing dizziness. The main range
at which May wheat was dealt in was $1.04l20
LOS, though the price several times went beyond
these extremes, the tendency being rather above
the limit named instead of below. The course of
the market for the past three days has en-
couraged "short' selling, and it is probably
through this that now the "short' interest is the
larger of the two. A big short interest is
usually, but not always, source of strength,
for 1t sometimes happens that market is liter
Whether such is to be the outcome at this time,
is point on which radical difference OF Opin-
ion exists. Nothing has occurred as yet, to show
that the strongest holders have lost confidence
in the correctness of their position, but the
"tailers' are subject to frequent fits of nervous
"afoot or on horseback" They are strong when
the market gets strong, and weak when the
market gets weak. Every time values dip they
ing, and run. The situation is not luminous with
that clear light which operators delight to see
Locally Hutchinson was counted as the heaviest
seller of wheat and the largest buying was sup
posed to be for Kent * Fairbanks. The big COM
mission houses were on both sides of the market
with distinguished impartiality. AS rule they
were free sellers early and buyers later on. but
some of them appeared to have selling orders on
all the hard spots throughout the session.
The news from the Northwest was statistically
bullish and speculatively bearish. Many strong
''bulls" In the spring districts have changed
their mind and are now sending forth sOrrowful
messages. From seaboard points the burden of
news was somewhat encouraging. A little ex-
port business at New York and Philadelphia is
reported, and San Francisco dispatches make
mention of large shipments by steamer to Ant
werp and other European points. The closing
range here and at other points show no particu-
day Initial trading in MAY wheat was at 81 .O5l IL
