NEW YORK December 9.-The sersa-
tional advance of December wheat III chi
cago to-day from 81 Coz to 81 % was re-
Elected locally by q net Improvement OF
11sG3sc a bushel. Speculation, while act
i've at times. did not approach the excite
merit reached in the west, as wheat trad,
ers here were pretty well eVened up and
tco shrewd in the present unsettled state
of the market affairs to branch out into
fresh deals Accordingly only a scalpins
business was accomplished, save for a lit
tie foreign buying in the early day. The
December option sold from CSC to 9Sa4c,
and closed at CSC to 9S7sc. while May clos
ed at 9iS4c, after sales at $3.50 and Soc.
The advance effectively checked export
ers. who were only able to secure ~ loads.
