CHICAGO MARnEr LETTER
Furnished by Topeka Grain and stock Ex-
change. 526 Kansas Avenue.
CHICAGO, Dec. Wheat-At the start
this morning there was little strength
left over from last night May selling az
613s, however. Thereafter weakness de-
veloped over disappointing cables, and
a renewal of deliveries, which were
quite free especially of No l northern,
which was sent around on De-
cember contracts. This superinduced
weakness and az the crowd went homo
last night loaded with wheat aud pre-
pared for an advance, they were some
what disgruntled over the situation and
sold out, leaving the market without
much support, with perhaps the excep-
ton of purchases made against puts.
which sold rather close last night.
The fact that Minneapolis and Du-
luth combined had 1,343 cars,
compared with 1879 for the same
day year ago, initiated
against any enthusiasm that might have
been engendered An utterance by
Cudahy that May would lose its present
premium was considered as significant.
Exports were light at 1000 wheat and
$4,000 bbls -four Late cables were
little higher and after selling down to
602s Bradstreeps report was re-
ceived and an increase in the
available stocks of only 1872
100000 bu, stocks on Pacific coast de-
creased $4,000 bu, while the total
worlds visible supply made a decrease
of so, 1000 This group of statistics ar
rested the break and the price was
given little upturn. The receipts here
were 39S cars. Shipments from store
10000. Cash demand good mostly for
milling purposes. Final Liverpool
cable reported good milling demand on
that side of the water, but some way or
another all the news was favorable as d
whole to lower the prices, the market is
slow in responding The trade had very
little in the way of war news to go on.
Outside of the northwest receipts the
home situation is undeniably bullish, but
the outside does not take hold.
Corn-Another low mark was made in
the price of corn, May selling to 2S5sc
and the market closing at 55c bid. Cash
demand is very good aud exports fair.
Provisions-Quiet and feaLureless with
out material change in prices.
Closing on Popular Stocks.

Sugar, 1O3: @, S37s; r L 1928; ST. Paul
