Chicago Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO. Dec 2o.-Firmness of foreign markets. dropping off In domestic receipts, scarcity of red Winter wheat and the general effect of the extreme cold weather, made grain traders forget all about the holiday de- precision today and May wheat closed 7sc high CT. May corn 1fc up and May oats hQke higher. Provisions closed unchanged to l2h9 5c higher.
 Conditions in wheat were bullish all around at the opening. Trade was inclined to con tinue in its dull rut but with such argu- ments for better prices traders who did wish to get into deals had to bid up for every thing they bought. Cables were firm London reported no cargoes arriving or waiting on coast. and local houses with cable connections claimed better acceptances by the continent. Receipts were exaspeTatingly small and the cold weather promised still smaller for to- morrow. The car shortage at Minneapolis rs. tarded movement there of both wheat and flour and threatened to be the cau>e of clos ing up more mills. Tn the West and Southwest severe drops in temperature were recorded, in some places snow was falling and in others the thermometer registered below zero with no protection by snow Commission houses be- gan to buy on these fears and prices steadily advanced. May opened A9x ug at z9%97s% ceipts were S7 cars. none of contract grade Minenapolis and Duluth reported 3So cars. making a total for the three points of 393 cars. against 5l4- last week and 5l last year.

R. N. Scale 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 2o.-Liverpool pre- sented steady front today with deliveries a shade better and 5000 bales sold on the spot at unchanged prices While yesterdays cables stated that there was disposition abroad to elevate crop ideas 1t is evident from the lib- eral tAkings of actual cotton recently that confidence has not been established in that di- recton. On this side the process of nquida- tion continued. but 1t was accomplished at a few points improvement that was occasioned by the amount of cotton in sight for the week falling considerably below general expecta- tions as only 3el GOO bales were added to the crop In sight as compared with 3s7 900 bales the same week of last year. 32l 900 year before and 4ee.oo in Isse when the total yield amounted to l. 200 900 bales.
 The visible supply figures showing gain for the week of l97 ,ooo against I3o, 900 the same week of last year were practically disre- garded in the trading as a steady tono was maintained to the close Final prices are about points above yesterday.
 Liquidation for both accounts has proceeded on an extensive scale. but sentiment continues decidedly in favor of the market and is great iy encouraged by the course of the movement which Is accepted by many as pointing to the corhectness of the bureaus estimate
 It appears that extended activity in busi- ness in this country has resulted in a bet CT inquiry for cotton from domestic splnners and should developments in the near future be of a nature to convince foreigners that the crop Is short, pronounced upward tendency in the market will doubtless be observed.

So far as the foreign market was concerned. there was nothing to stimulate either buying or selling The movement Of the crop was rather in excess of expectations but as an offset to this unfavorabie factor was . batch of very bad weather advices from the crop country. Public and private advices reported very low temperatures over pretty much all the belt. Southern spot markets were firm at well sustained prices with demand brisk. Near midday the shorts given bed scare by . report that the In sight figures would show but little over 380. 900. whereas estimates have indicated 4io.ooo. From 8. l6 March stiffen- ed to 9.22, while May rose to @ 26 before profit taking set in and caused q reaction. Wall Street and Southern buying orders helped to advance the market though covering was the chief feature. The focal exchange later reported the 'in sight. to be 3s6. 900 bales as compared with 3e2. 900 by Hester. All the afternoon the market was steady with prices holding well up to the top on demand from shorts and light Southern buying.
