Chicago, Dec ga decline Of Id in the
price OF Wheat In Liverpool to-day started
the market here downward. Later in the
session the sentiment, from being radically
bearlsh, changed to one Of a decidedly bullish
nature, and good buying prices were very
materially advanced. AT the outside point
the advance was checked by liberal selling on
the part OF commission houses, May opening
&c lower than yesterdays close, advanced
&c, sold off &c, advanced A0Bc, eased
slightly and closed &c higher Than yesterday.
Corn was only moderately active. The tone
was derived mainly from wheat. The opening
was easy. Later in the session firmness
succeeded the early easy feeling and prices re-
acted, advancing and closing 5014c over
yesterdays final figures. Oats were ex-
cited at the opening. Several long lines came
on the market. Trading for time was very
active and attracted considerable attention.
The heavy offerings carried prices off &c
After the excitement subsidized the market
became steady, and firm later with wheat
and corn. The close was unchanged from yes
terday. Provisions were extremely dull
The opening was about easy, due to the lower
price quoted for live hogs at the yards. The
feeling became firm later with a similar tone
in grain and, although the business was alb.
normally light, yet values were we'll sus-
tanned. At the close January pork was sc
higher than yesterday January lard un-
changed and January ribs 2Hc higher.
