CHICAGO, december lS.-Inere was a
decided improvement in business done in
the wheat pit to-day in comparison with
that of the past few days, though it was

early advices from across the water this
morning were conflicting. Liverpool
quoted higher while London noted de-
cline in values. The later cables showed
that foreign markets were really stronger
Corn was weak and lower. Oats were
steady and without feature. Hog products
were lower. Flour unchanged. Wheat,
