CHICAGO, Dec. Tho Letter bull party In
wheat has the market for December In its con-
troll, and the shorts who have not the cash
property TO deliver by the end of this month
are in a bad way. Tho largest shorts arc said
TO DO Armour, Weare. and Peevey of Minneapo.
lis. Armour has nearly 1000, 900 bushels In his
elevators, and Weare TOO, 900 bushels. They
have also 100000 bushels on the way from
Duluth. Peevey is preparing to ship SOC. 900
bushels by rail to Chicgao to make his sales
good.
From 10000. 900 to IL, 900, 600 bushels have
boon sold short by the elevator men and apeou-
lators, and only 1855, 900 bushels are In store
that can be delivered. In tho private elevators
there-are probably 100000 bushels moro that

Tho Letter party has arranged to pay for
considerable wheat. IL has within q few days
contracted with ocean steamers TO chip 1900
900 bushels from Boston during january and
February, and will send part of the wheat East
