RUM0RS OF WAR lMPART
MORE STRENGTH TO GRAINS
REALIZING THEN WIPES
OUT GAINS IN WHEAT.
Corn, However, Closes Higher,
Stimulated by Steady Cables
Provisions Are Firm.

Chicago, Dec. 30-Alarming reports i'll
regard to the crisis in the Orient impaired
strength to both grain and provisions to-
day. Liberal proit-taking, however,
caused loss of all of the gain in the
leading option in wheat, May closing at
precisely the final figures of yesterday.
May corn finished asc UP. oats &c and pro-
visions 12;@c to 37lac.
WHEAT.
An easier feeling was manifested in the
wheat pit at the start. owing to easier
cables. large receipts in the Northwest
and Southwest and a general disposition
on the part Of local traders to take profits.
Considerable wheat came out the first
hour and the market became quite weak,
May declining to S3ssc after opening &c
up TO 14c lower at SIC to SsiSc.
On Tumors that the leading long was
buying freely many of the early sellers
turned buyers and there were additional
purchases to even UP over the holidays.
Sensational war rumors were circulated
and prices advanced rapidly. May sold UP
TO Siesc. A reaction occurred during the
was firm. with May at SAGE. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 431.20O bu.
Primary receipts were 1.0l6,3D0 bu., against
SO. 100 bu. year ago. Minneapolis. Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts or SD cars,
against 557 cars last week and 3i7 cars
year ago.
CORN.
War news furnished the lever for bulls
in hhe corn pit to boost prices little
higher. Additional factors. however, were
found in the steady cables. small receipts
and continued light movement in the coun-
try. The feature in trading was the SELL
Ing OF about a quarter-million bu. of May
by a prominent provision house. The offer
ings were taken by commission houses.
Closing prices were strong. MAY opened
unchanged to 1Sc higher at 44;sd45c, sold
between 44%c and 4ossc. closing at 45kc.
Local receipts were 1870 cars, none of con-
tract grade.
OATS.
Oats wero easier carly in sympathy with
wheat, but later became strong under ac
tive buying by commission houses. The
market was affected by the same in
fiuences. that governed wheat and corn.
Closing prices were near the top. with May
at 3Sq3Sisc, after opening a shade lower at
SIlzc and ranging between 375sc and
GSi4c. Local receipts were 10o cars.
