STILL ON THE TOBOGGAN
WHEAT GOES OFF ANOTHER FULL
HALF CENT.
Corn and Oats Make Substantial
Gains on Individual Strength
Provisions Close Higher.

CHICAGO. Jan. 1.-THE decline i'm wheat
was continued to-day under influences
which have held sway recently. but the
ciose was with some of the loss regained
on the export engagements. May closed
&c lower, corn and oats closed iRQssci high
er. provisions unchanged to l5c up.
That Liverpool did not reflect the decline
here yesterday was the cause for mo-
ment's firmness in wheat at the opening,
which was &c higher for May at 95ss4'5S4c
The same old stone-lberal receipts and
slack outside support-was still fastened
about the markets neck. and the first half
hour saw drop TO 74ssa74lsc under fairly
liberal selling. The selling pressure was
weakened long enough for recovery TO
747sc. but trade was dull and this attempt
at recovery was soon abandoned and re-
lapse to 7iAc occurred. During the last
fifteen minutes, May rallied sharply to 75c,
at which the market closed. The rally was
due mostly to the report of exporters that
LOG loads had been taken for foreign ship
ment, and partly ON desire to take profits.
as it was believed the foreign sales had
been made at reduced prices and that much
of the grain was of inefrior quality. Sea-
board clearances in wheat and flour were
equal to $4,000 bu. Primary receipts ag-
gregated 46S, 900 blu, compared with 36S0O
year ago Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported 3lS cars against 265 cars last week
and 2S5 cars a year ago. Local receipts
were 2S5 cars.
Corn was independently strong the great
er part of the session, although prices did
bend a little early in sympathy with the
wheat weakness. The high price of hogs.
coupled with buying by provision interests,
the light country movement and the con-
tinued poor grading of receipts were the
ruling factors There was little or no ele-
vator selling and a good cash demand. al
though business was as usaul hampered by
lack of cars Receipts were $40 cars. none
| of contract grade. May sold between 37A
/ Q377sc and 3SssQ3Ss4c and closed l2q9sc
| higher at 3S1zGt3S5sc-
| oats also exhibited individual strength,
at no time showing more than the slight
| est attention to the wheat weakness. The
excel mt cash demand. light movement and
| report that big interests were long 15O00,-
| 600 bu were supporting influences. The corn
strength also a help. Receipts were
| 262 cars. May sold between 2issc and 25ssc
and closed 1aQSsc higher at 25l4c
