trade only in the settlement prevented any OF
the wild excitement that would have been seen
10 an open market, restricted operations mate
rally and undoubtedly saved serious financial
troubles, but it did not prevent violent and
wide fluctuations in prices December opened
1hc higher and Jumped TO &c higher at once, q I'D
the feeling was nervous and apprehensive TO a
degree. Several leading commission houses
gave public notice that they would not execute
fresh orders and after some CONFUSION at the
opening matters settled down to a comparative
condition OF quietude. 1t was the lofty tumb-
ing OF Chicago's early market that caused tie
wide range and violent fluctuations here. Pri-
vate cable saying that Berlin had declined Sc
for wheat and &c for rye had weakening
eHect that the heavy exports of wheat and
flour did not counteract. The market gradually
sank down or its own weight and lack of trad
ing, finally selling &c below the top, The close
