Chicago. Doc There was good business
transacted in wheat today. and the feeling
alternated between strength and weakness.
The news was about evenly divided between
an encouraging ana depressing nature. Prices
at the opening were lsGl14c lower than
Wednesday. The closing figures fluctuated
which was &c lOwcrfOr December and M6Nl5C
lower for May than last prices OF wednesday.
Corn was quiet with tho trade confined prin-
cipaly to the local crowd. There was
very little news to affect prices and the
range was most narrow covering only IGhhc.
The close was fractlonally below that of
Wednesday. oats were without feature.
Weakness was manifested when other grains
declined and prices receded ANhc closing iac
under Wednesday, December closed weaker
than the far deliveries. Provisions opened
steady and slightly higher on the improve
mCnt in values OF live hogs at the Yards. but
there was scarcity of orders. Later there
was an easier feeling prevalent. Toward the
close prices we're some hrm9r, and the last
figures showed gain OF 3ac for January pork
and lard and 2I3c for January ribs Every
thing considered, the market was an extreme
~ narrow and featuTeless one.
