Chicago, Dec. 13.-Wheat was moder-
ately active and declined on liberal re-
ceIpts and anticipation Of a bearizh gov

WHEAT.
In the wheat pit considerable stuff re-
Gently acquired was turned adrift on a
moderately active market May opened
unchanged at 1875 70 74c, being for the
moment supported by the steadiness OF
the Liverpool and Antwerp markets, ard
vague rumors of export business done
yesterday. Thereafter the tendency was
downward. Receipts were liberal and
headers feared the usual bearishness Of
the government report due Monday. A
prospect that Northwest stocks foBA the
week would show an increase Of 1,20,OJ0
bushels was not encouraging. May dur
ing the forenoon dropped to 1903 Sc,
steadied for a while and then continued
the decline to 7314c. The close was weak,
May u to sc lower, at 739sc. New York
reported IS loads taken for export. Sea-
board clearances in wheat and -four were
equal to $4,000 bushels Primary re-
ceipts aggregated SIS, 900 bushels, com
pared with $4,000 bushels last year.

cars, against $50 last week and $50 year
ago. Local receipts were 81 cars, none
of contract grade
CORN AND OATS.
Corn was quiet and the price de-
pressed by freer country offerings and
excellent weather. The wheat weakness,
also, exerted an influence against the
maintenance of prices. The market was
rather firm at the start, but the buying
which helped the price at that time asst
ed for a moment only. May sold be
tween 961zQS6$sc and $3.50, closing CSC
lower at 35z4 d357sc. December sold be-
tween 371a and 365sc and closed pc down
at 36$4c Receipts were 201 cars, none
of contract grade.
Oats were a quiet market, prices ruling
lower in sympathy with wheat and corn.
While there was some improvement in
the volume Of trade, the quantity which
changed hands was still too small to
attract any attention. Receipts were 1)2
cars May sold between 1873 and 235sQ
23$4c and closed a shade lower at 23$4c.
PROVISIONS.
Provisions were dull but firm. because
hog receipts were under the estimate
