why Cash wheat Is at Premium.

CHICAGO, Dec. 15.-William T. Baker,
president of the Board of Trade, says, with
reference to the unusual conditions in
wheat: Cash wheat is at a premium over
future delivery here, and in all parts of the
world, because more of it has been sold than
can be delivered. Wheat is scarce all over
the world Not enough was grown last year
to supply the demand. America now has
the opportunity to make its own price for
wheat. 1t has in the past been considered
by many to be a blessing for us TO supply
the world with cheap wheat, even though
our own farmers hardly could make BON
ends meet on the cost of production. Now
perhaps, in view of the prosperity which
has come to this Nation from higher prices,
there will be less sympathy for those OPP
Grating to depresS gram values below the
values normally adjusted by demand and
supply. In the past unlimited quantities of
wheat have been sold on the market and
resold, with no demand for its delivery.
Now, however, the wheat is wanted bad
ly by consumers that CONTRACTS calling for
delivery can stand for no 'wind wheat. We
shall probably see the same tight conditions
in May wheat, when May comes, as We now
see in December wheat. | think that this
country already has exported much of the
wheat which it will soon need for it's own
consumption and that the full scarcity is
not by any means yet appreciated.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade i'm Most Lines Fairly Good, with
Few Fluctuations.

Trade in the aggregate is considerably in excess
Of that of the corresponding period last year, but
in certain lines as holidays draw trade falls
off somewhat. This is true with dry goods. With
boot and shoe merchants, hat and cap dealers
and millinery houses trade is quiet. Wholesale
grocers, druggists and confectoners at high
tide. Business with produce men is becoming
quite active and poultry eggs and butter are all
firm at the advances of Monday. On Commission
row a healthy volume of business is in progress
The old established commission merchants have
had very good year taken whole, and the
prospects good for active holiday trade. In
other lines there are no new features
The local grain market is active than last
month, still receipts fall short of the active de-
mand for all cereals The Touring mills are still
running about e-thrd their capacity, but the
cerealine mills the hominy mills and starch works
large consumers of corn and the stock yards
and packing houses are now large buyers of corn.

BOSTON, Dec 15.-The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow of the wool
trade The market the past week has been char
acterized by the excessive dizziness which usually
been confined to limited number of sellers. The
wool market is now waiting on the dry goods
lures until that is opened Concessions on good
woods not in order. Last week the cable ad-
vices stated that 5000 bales have been bought for
America at the London sales. We are now ad-
vised that woods are put down for this country
which will not come this way and the figures Of
the last week will accordingly have to be modified
quite little. Foreign woods have absorbed most
Of the attention the last week. There have been
some fairly good-sized sales, one being at least
600 bales. So long as good Australian woods can
be bought at lower figures in Boston than in any
other part of the world the demand here is likely
to continue good. They will perhaps average &c
in the grease below the importing point The
sales of the week amount to 942, 900 lbs domestic
and 1572 500 foreign, making total of 2,514, 500.

goods shows improvement. Store trading and
Shipping are very light and judging from appear
ances in the dry goods district the market is a
very uninteresting one. Mail orders do not help
out much in any line. Spring buying has not set
in yet to any appreciable extent. Jobbers renort
an intermittent call for actual necessities and the
only department which shows anything like fair
degree of activity is that Of holiday goods which
are bought with considerable freedom although
it is a question whether they are selling as &C
lively as has been the case for several wears back
been the reduction of Hill "A bleached cottons and
