Chicago, Dec. 14.-Wheat-The strength displayed by wheat was the surprising fea- ture of the market for that grain today The start was inauspicious, owing to de- cline Of l4d at Liverpool, but the loss was quickly recovered and the advance which was met with a reverse until the close, that being at the best figures quotable. The crowd, recolecting the unexpectedly large decrease in the visible suply on last Mon day, worked on the theory that the falling off today would be almost as great and doing so made no mistake, 2c2S,o COD bushels disappearing. All the other statistics ratn- CT favored lower prices, but they met with no response. May wheat opened from SOSsD S05s, advanced to S21s. closing at the outside 1hG12sc higher than Saturday. Cash wheat was firm and 1Ac higher
 The corn market was almost a nominal one. a small attendance and few orders giving the pit forsaken appearance. May corn opened at 25S4I257sc, advanced to and closed at 26kd 26Ae higher than Saturday Cash corn was steady to Hc lower.
 Oats-The first trading in oats was at easy figures, but the startling jump in wheat helped the feeling later. May oats closed Ac higher than Saturday. Cash oats were weak, prices declining AQoAc.
 Provsions-A light run of hogs and bet ter prices at the yards conveyed firm tone to product at the opening. Business was fair. The strength of wheat had a good effect on the provision market later. May pork closed 712c higher; May lard and ribs each 215c higher.
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Cottnn Letter.

New York, Dec. 14.-cotton had disas- trous break today. The continuance of the heavy receipts and break in Liverpool were too much for the longs and an enormous liquidation took place. March, which closed at 7.19 on Saturday, opened at 7.01, declined to 697, rallied to 7.o3, then declined to 69O and closed at 69596.95, with the tone steady. The last hour the feeling was a little more cheerful. There may be slight rallies, but we fear that there is no hope for any last Ing and substantial advance until January has been liquidated and the receipts dimin- ished materially. The chief buyers of the vast quantities of cotton thrown overheard today were Liverpool and New Orleans.
