DULL AND FEATURELESS
CHICAGO GRAINS SAGGED FROM
LACK OF DECISIVE STATISTICS.
Wheat, Corn and Oats Closed a Shade
ket, Being strong and Higher.

CHICAGO, Dec. 9.-The grain and provi-
sion markets were dull to-day. Wheat was
firm early but eased off on profit taking
and rather free selling against weekly
calls, closing &c under yesterday for May.
May corn and oats closed a shade lower
and provisions 21zG5c better.
The wheat market was steady at the
opening. with the initial figures for May
unchanged from 7o1s@7OAc. Cables were
steady and receipts light. but the support
failed in the face of the selling against
weekly calls and some profit taking. The
Argentine news was confusing by reason
of the conflict in the reports-a private
wire declaring the weather unsettled while
Liverpool asserted that climatic conditions
were favorable and that the Argentine
would have q. O0O,O 900 bushels exportable sur
plus. shade more credence was given to
the English advices. May ranged from
697sq70hc, closing nc down. at 697s970c.
Primary receipts were $4,000 Blu, against
1.1s4,500 bu last year. Minneapolis and Du-
luth reported 469 cars, against S31 last week
and 934 a year ago. Local receipts were
sixty-six cars. eleven of contract grade.
Clearances were $4,000 bu. Primary re-
ceipts for the week showed a falling off of
dDOut dS compared Win the
previous week and 100000 bu under the
corresponding week last year. Toward the
close the market felt some uneasiness over
the money situation in New York. The in
animation of business was due largely to
the scarcity of decisive statistics and part
~ to the fact that it was Saturday.
Corn steady but very dull, but held
on the wet weather, prospects of rain and
the good all-rail demand. Local profess
cars. Liverpool was 1c higher on spot,
which was something of a support. Stocks
here expected to- increase 100000 bu.
Clearances were $4,000 blu. May opened a
shade up, ranged from 325s4331sc, closing a
shade under yesterday at 327s033c.
Oats held their own, in spite of the dull
ness, but trade was quiet and the range
very narrow. Light receipts, together with
the supporting factor in corn, was a

shade down. at 24n241sc. Clearances were
1900 bu. Stocks are expected to show a
moderate increase.
Provisions opened strong, and, though the
marKet met considerable commission house
liquidation, continued steady throughout.
Hogs were up trifie at the yards and Liv-
erpool was better for bacon, conditions
which supported the price. Trade was not
narrow May pork sold from $9971kd10 to
S10-O5. closing sc over yesterday. at $1005-
May lard from $5.521595.55 to $5.571z and

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
A Good Weeks Trade, with Very Few
Changes in Values.

The wholesale merchants speak of trade as be-
ing unusually satisfactory and the remark will
apply to every line of business, especially to
what is termed holiday trade-never better,
in fact, say the dealers in fancy notions, con-
dictionaries, etc. The dry goods houses are hav-
ing the best December business in their history.
and trade with the wholesale grocery houses is
largely in excess of any former year. On COM
mission row business is good, but no better than
for time past. Prices continue unusually
steady fruits and vegetables and the produce
houses are doing good business. AS to prices
in all lines there is a steady tone. and when any
changes made they are in the nature of an
advance. In the hardware trade there is a little
slowing down, while the iron merchants are
doing unprecedentedly good business.
The local grain market presents few new fea-
lures. Since the freeze more corn has been
coming in off Western lines. and the cereal line
industries are taking many thousand bushels
daily to keep them running. Receipts of wheat
and oats exceedingly light Track bids Sat-

Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-There was no change Of
any Importance in the dry goods market to-day.
The demand for staple cottons is of ordinary
character and supplies of brown bleached and
coarse colored goods continued insufficient.
Prints are in good request at the new prices
made last week No change in ginghams. High
grade woven patterned fabrics advanced 5 to 10
per cent Print cloths quiet for regulars but
good demand for narrow odds; prices firm. Cot
ton. worsted and wooden yarns are all strong and
difficult to buy.

Hogs-Receipts, $500; shipments, 1000.
Nearly 1900 more hogs arrived than
week ago and not quite many as a year
ago. The supply was apparently ample,
but the market opened with statesmen ask
ing rather higher prices. Shipping orders
were less urgent. and local packers, taking
advantage of the situation, refused to pay
any better prices. Finally on a basis OF
about yesterdays prices, the trading was
fairly active and a good clearance had
been made at the close. The receipts this
week were over 1900 larger than last
week and over 1900 smaller than the same
week a year ago. For the week ending
yesterday local packers bought over q, 0OO
and the shipments We're little less than
$1,000. There has been some fuctuation I'm
values this week. there being an upward
tendency the first half of the week, when
the average was fully 1Oc above the close
of last week. Continued liberal supplies
here and elsewhere brought about the
natural result reaction in prices. and
the average at the close Of the week was
probably not to exceed sc higher than the
close of last week. The quality of the arri-
walls generally has been more satisfactory
than recently. and quite a number OF prime
hogs were represented. Quotations.:

as last week and little larger than the
same week year ago. Thus Tar this year
