CHICAGO GRAIN.
Chicago. Dec 1O-Profts have come to
the bulls in wheat so seldom of late that |
nearly everyone who had returned with |
long wheat yesterday sold it out today.
The government report was looked upon
as a menace to the bulls. The foreign mar
kets were a disappointment, the north
western receipts were liberal and the
trade was disposed to question visible
supply figures
Close-May wheat &c, corn 29Ac, oats
1910.
Receipts-wheat 10000, corn $4,000. oats
S25OO0.
New York, Dec 1O-The industrial
shares again absorbed speculative atten-
ton, despite several favorable influences
upon the other markets. Trading on
change for the first 10 minutes was prac-
tically confined to industrial shares. To-
bacco opened with sales of $500 shares at
Il to TO- The price soon receded to 6S,
against 71A yesterdays final sale. Leath-
er preferred yielded 1%, to 09i5 Sugar
made a fractional loss.
The pressure to sell abated directly after
1918. and on the covering of short con-
tracts a general rally ensued. Tobacco
regained q per cent of the earlier de-
cline. Sugar and Chicago Gas recovered
to last nights closing figures. Leather
preferred made small gains.
The appearance of heavy purchasing or
ders in high priced industrial shares the
next hour put the shorts to rout. Their
efforts to cover sent the price of Tobacco
up IL per cent, to M. Consolidated Gas
made a net gain of per cent The rail-
way list was neglected and prices gener-
ally were unchanged at midday, as COM
pared with final sales yesterday
