DULL AND FEATURELESS
CHICAGO GRAINS SAGGED FROM
LACK OF DECISIVE STATISTICS.
Wheat, Corn and Oats Closed q 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 shade lower
and provisions 21kG5c better.
The wheat market was steady at the
opening. with the initial figures for May
unchanged from 7Oisq7OAc. 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 100000 bushels exportable sur
plus. A shade more credence was given to
the English advices. May ranged from
6s7s470Ac. closing nc down, at 6s%G70c
Primary receipts were $751; 600 blu, against
1,lS4,5O0 bu last year. Minneapolis and Du-
luth reported 469 cars, against S31 last week
and 9A year ago. Local receipts were
sixty-six cars, eleven OF contract grade
Clearances were 2SOO00 bu. Primary re-
ceipts for the week showed a falling off of
about 100000 bu as compared with 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
ly to the fact that it was Saturday.
Corn was steady but very dull, but held
on the wet weather. prospects of rain and
the good all-rail demand. Local profess
sionai bulls bought May. Receipts were DIS
cars. Liverpool was &c higher on spot,
which was something of a support. Stocks
here are expected to increase 250, 900 blu.
Clearances were 10000 blu. May opened a
shade up. ranged from 327s933sc, closing a
shade under yesterday at 327sQ33c.
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
steadying influence. Receipts here were 149
cars. May sold from 24q24lsQ2iAc, closing
a shade down. at 240241sc. Clearances were
% 600 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
active and fluctuations were accordingly
narrow May pork sold from S9971sGi10 to
1905, closing &c over yesterday. at Sl0.05.
May lard from $552lzd5.55 to s5.57h and
closed nc better, at $5-5712; May ribs from
$53565.37l1, closing 21zQ5c up. at $5S7i2.
Estimated receipts Monday-Wheat 50
cars; corn, 80 cars; oats, l15 cars: hogs,
$4,000 head.
Iaad,pV futures ranged as follows.

Hogs-Receipts, $500: shipments, 1000
Nearly 1900 more hogs arrived than a
week ago and not quite as 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 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 5000 larger than last
week and over 1900 smaller than the same
week a year ago. For the week ending
yesterday local packers bought over 1900.
and the shipments were little less than
10000 There has been some fiuctuation in
values this week, there being an upward
tendency the first half of the week. when
the average was fully 10c above the close
of last week. Continued liberal supplies
here and elsewhere brought about the
natural result. a 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 number of prime
hogs were represented. Quotations:

Sheep-Receipts light: shipments none.
There were no fresh arrivals OF sheep and
lambs, consequently no transactions were
reported, and there is no quotable change
or improvement to note in the market COM
pared with yesterday. The receipts for the
week have been small. but about the same
as last week and little larger than the
same week a year ago. Thus far this year
the receipts show a decrease of over 1900
compared with the same period last year.
There has been rather a good demand all
week. and no doubt a very much larger
supply Of stock could have been sold to
better advantage than the few were.
There were only about enough to supply
the local butcher trade. and for the class
OF stock on sale prices were strong. There
was quite an active request 1T the close
