CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and CIosinR
Prices on hon I'd of Trade.


CHICAGO. Dec. 49, American wheat
caused strength tn the wheat market here
today, the May option closing with gain
OF lHlhc. Corn and oats were each up
Ssnhc Provisions were 1On35c higher
Influenced by a decline of Id n bushel
IN the price OF wheat at Liverpool. the
market here at the opening was inclined TO
be weak. with the May option lknitc lower
TO shade higher at S1i4c to Slac. The de-
mand, however, was active ana with only
moderate offerings prices soon rose. I'm
settled weather In the northwest threat
ened to curtail the movement of the new
crop and this caused shorts to cover freely.
Late In the session the market acquired
additional strength from general buying
caused by reports of an improved demand
Tor export. For May the highest point OF
the day was reached at &Ssc The market
closed strong with prices almost at the top,
hnal quotations on May being at SSl3c;
Clearances of wheat ana -four were equal
TO 1000 bushels. Primary receipts were
sZIW bushels, compared with i53OVO
bushels one year ago. The worlds visible
supply as shown by Bradstreets increased
10000 bushels. Minneapolis. Duluth and
Chicago reported receipts of $50 cars
against $50 cars last week and 500 cars one
year ago.
Interest in the corn pit conferred in the
December option. Shorts who were made
uneasy by the marked decrease In local
stocks bought freely. The result was AN
advance of a4c In the price of December.
Other deliveries showed strength on &C
count of the tirmness exhibited by the De
cember option. The market closed strong
with prices at the highest point of the day.
May opened unchanged to shade higher
at 4q44isc to 44hc, advanced to 4511c and
closed at the top Local receipts were Ilj
cars with ten cars of contract grade.
Trading in oats was duh. but the mar
ket was firm In sympathy with the
strength Of other grains There was some
selling by elevators early in the day, but
shorts and commission houses absorbed all
offerings. May opened a shade lower to a
shade higher at 3lTsc to 32c, advanced to
S24sc and closed at S2ac. Local receipts
were 304 cars.
Provisions were strong and trading was
active. Heavy shipments of meats and lard
were responsible for the upward tendency
of prices. Local packers took large por-
ton of all offerings. At the close May
pork was up 35c at S136I11. Lard was up
at S27h.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat
cars; corn, 2H cars; oats l02 cars; hogs

HOGS-There was a liberal run OF hogs
on the market today, lbe cars about II 90
head, being reported in. with nine cars
shipped direct to the packers. The re-
ceipts today were larger than last Tues
day by about 5000 head, hut practically
the same ds the corresponding Tuesday
last Year.
Trading on hogs opened rather slow with
not much doing, owing to the large receipts
here, and also the large run reported at
Chicago. The opening prices were gener-
ally steady to strong. Later I'm the morn
ing the early estimate OF the receipts at
Chicago was reduced by several thousa nd
head. This had bracihg effect on the
sellers and served to firm UP the mar
ket considerably Then the fact that there
was bulge in the provision market helped
the sellers out some. Trading closed brisk
and active. with prices a nickel higher in
most cases The bulk Of the hogs brought
AS2lS0iSIif. Toppy loads were selling at
$3.50. Good choice heavy weights were
given the preference.
