Chicago, Dec 27.-Another bull disap-
pointment was recorded in wheat to-day.
Starting in with a fractional gain over
portion of the session, the business still
wearing holiday appearance with out
siders sending very few orders on either
side. Everything seemed encouraging to
holders, but the difhdence exhibited by
spectators, I'm taking hold of the buying
side, was disappointing, and when, within
ten minutes of the close, a prominent
New Yorker sent in liberal selling orders,
the market was found to have no support
whatever. and prices fell away fun cent
in twinkling. Long wheat came out
freely in the last half hour. final quota
side for the day. May opening from 5SiaM
IS to 5SIzc, sold at $3.50, declined to 57iac,
closing at 575sc-s4c under yesterday. Cash
wheat sold &c per bushel higher, hut
closed nominally weak with the futures.
Prices OF corn were nrm and higher
on their conditions, but lost what they
had gained early simply from sympathy
with wheat in the final minutes of trad
ing. May corn opened from 4S9sc to 4SAc,
sold at 48is049c, declined to 4Slsc, closing
at 4Sl4--lsql4c under yesterday. Cash
corn sold i2a2%c per bushel better than
yesterday, but after trading in that branch
of the market went where prices reflected
the weakness of the futures.
oats advanced with wheat and corn
early and declined with the latter. Trade
yesterday. Cash oats sold l4c per bushel
higher than yesterday.
Provisions-Stronge grain markets and
a. firm hog market were the features In
product early and the packers against
them. A slight appreciation was noted in
prices at the opening, but IL soon disap-
peared under the weight of offerings.
n portion of what was lost was recovered
before the session ended. May pork closed
7iRc under yesterday, May lard 2l5c higher
and May ribs slight fraction higher.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
