CHICAGO, December 19.-Buying by
/ shorts caused by the low price and dimin-
/ ished receipts resulted in gain for wheat
| to-day and May closed &c higher than yes
I terdav. The market sull felt the depreSs-
/ ing influence Of yesterdays increase in the
visible supply There was news in which
I the bulls found some consolation, however
/ The Baltic and other shipping ports, eS-
elusive OF Indian aud American, exported
/ s. 80. 900 bushels Of wheat last week, which
! indicates considerable falling on in Rus
sian shipments. Indian exports were 456,
600. The Northwestern receipts here also
were light in comparison both with those
Of the week before and Of year ago. Corn
ard oats averaged weak an each lost q
| fraction Of their yes erday's closing values.
