"a FOR THE BEARS
CHICAGO DEALERS AFRAID OF BIG
INCREASE IN VISIBLE WHEAT.
Leading Cereal 3-Sc Lower Than ON
Friday and Other Grains, To-
gether with Provisions, Down.

CHICAGO, Dec. S.-The grain markets
were very weak. Wheat closed with a
loss of 3sc and corn for May is also sc
lower. Oats weakened to a similar extent
and provisions are unchanged. A majority
of the traders looked for over 100000 bu
increase in the visible, and that was large
ly responsible for the decline in wheat, the
other markets following.
Wheat was very weak at the opening at
Ac under yesterdays closing price. The ca
bic news was against il, the Northwest re-
ceipts maintained their previous proper
tionate increase over those of the year be-
fore and the aggregate of the primary mar
ket receipts was as large as last year. and
compared with shipments from the same
were not suggestive OF any tendency to-
ward the reduction of the visible. The
damage to the Argentine wheat crop was
again stoutly disputed, and the fact that
offers of Argentine wheat for forward
shipment were reported to be getting quite
urgent in Liverpool and London was taken
as confirmation of the report that many Of
the recent statements of damage to the
crop had been greatly exaggerated. The
bullish items in the days news were
neither few nor unimportant, but a still
growing visible and the bearish items al
ready enumerated were too much for the
sorely-tried bulls. Among other matters to
be added to the list on the bear side was
the statement that sales for English ac-
count made to-day in New York and Chi
cago were undoubtedly against purchases
of Argentine wheat to arrive. May wheat
opened at 5SSsQ59l2c, sold of to $3.50, with
a sale at 69AQ593sc. 1t recovered to $3.50,
and closed witt sellers at 5919c.
Corn receipts were over the estimates and
Withdrawals from store were only 81, 900 bu.
That, and predictions Of colder, fair wealth
err caused a pressure of sales for December
and January delivery, which weakened
those months and also May to a lesser ex-
tent Compared with yesterdays closing
prices December is 1c lower, January sc
and May &c lower.
oats market as regards activity. Fluctu-
atoms were governed entirely by corn. May
closed at 321ac bid. The range during the
day was from 32a4c to the closing price.
A very dull day in the provision pit re-
suited in the closing prices to-day being
practically the same as on the day before.
Hog. receipts were $1,000, and for Monday
Al, 900 are estimated.
Freights dull, with charters to Buffalo at
SC TO unload, and 31ac to hold until April
i. and &c to Port Huron to hold until
spring.
Estimates for Monday: Wheat, no cars;
corn, 400 cars; oats, 200 cars; hogs, $4,000
head.

Local. GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade of the Week Satisfactory and
Collections Easy.

In most departments OF trade the volume
of business last week has been very salts
factory and considerably i'm excess of that
of early December last year. Especially is
this true with the grocers who have, for
some weeks, been doing the largest bust
ness in their history. Prices OF all staple
groceries have been steady and firm. the
anticipated breaks on sugar and coffee not
yet materializing. Dry goods houses have
had good trade and with the articles which
come under the holiday list all are doing a
fine business. On Commission row there Is
not so much room to talk Improvement in
business. Comparisons with last year show
more business done. but there are so many
more commission houses in business than
last year that the smaller affairs help 10 d.
vide the trade so that no true basis can be
reached Fruits AMI vegetables are in large
supply and selling lower than In any De-
cember for many years. The poultry mar
ket is fiat and eggs will decline sharply
next week should the present mild weather
continue. In other lines there is little new
to note.

week. The market has been Ac easier for
River Platte wheat. which is now offered at

The quality was generally fair. Some good
extra heavy were on sale. which sold early
at $4.60Q470. but later the market weak
ened and packers refused to make offers.
Some sold later to shippers as good in quail
ity and weight at $3.50 and A.55 as sold at
at the opening. This looks like
packers are throwing out a bait for the
future. as the prices were evidently paid for
the purpose of getting a run next week.
Shippers will do well to keep a sharp look
out, as cne of the buyers for a big packing
concern was heard to remark that there
would be plenty of hogs here Tuesday and
Wednesday. If such should be the case,
prices will evidently be lower. Near the
close of the market shippers had orders
which would have taken most Of the hogs.
