Chicago Grain Market.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-Speculation on the Board
OF Trade to-day was such as to recall the
great transactions of Hutchinson. Cudahy.
Kent, Ream and the other giants who ruled
the pits and swung prices for fortunes every
session Bull enthusiasm such as has not been
seen often in late years had possession OF the
markets, and in spite of heavy selling for
pronts, every pit closed strong.
transactions in wheat were on scale that
indicated the Western country was thoroughly
aroused to the situation. The slight sag at
yesterdays close following the early buoyancy
attracted buyers everywhere. Both primary
ana northwestern receipts were reported rap
idly decreasing. The cable list did not re-
spond to yesterdays sag and later cables
to take profits induced many holders to real
ize, but with the enthusiasm that seemed to
prevail on all hands early sellers soon became
the best buyers. The countryman was prac-
ticaly in control of the market. Outside mar
kets responded rapidly to every bullish incen-
tive, and this strength was again reflected
here. Flour at Minneapolis advanced 10 cents.
Dry weather in the Southwest was reported
damaging to the winter crop and news was
to stock WITTY ihat waea esng lee
showed Steady advance. December opened
Ac to nc up. sold to 751A@755sc and closed
strong, .1%91hc higher at 75A@75sc. May
opened h@Ac to ss01sc up and sold to 79%c,
closing strong, 1as@11kc higher at 79kc.
Corn lent its share of activity to the general
strength. The buying was of general charac-
ter. with shorts covering and a good demand
present from the outside. Wheat activity in
nuenceo tnls PIT greatly and light receipts and
unsettled weather brought on bull campaign.
Trade was not heavy but the market was un-
der q constant nervous strain. December
