GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, December 3l.-Realizng
sales in the December delivery caused
moderate weakness in the wheat market
during early trading today. Some Of the
leading commission houses were the prin-
ctpal sellers. Demand was slack and
trading was inclined to drag the first
hour Cables were firm, but liberal re-
ceipts in the northwest offset this factor.
Prices at the opening were Il cent high
er to 1 cent lower. December being at
1.171s to 1.1s and May at Lips to 112Hs.
Later May touched Lis. December for
a time held within the opening range.
Selling Of the December option was also
the feature Of early trading in the corn
pit. AS result of this selling, which
was chiefly of profit taking nature.
prices sold off trifle from the opening
figures, which were Is higher to lsaA
lower compared with the previous close.
Liquidation of small quantities of the
December wheat delivery caused the
price of that option to decline by wide
leaps all day. The bottom was reached
at liz The low point for May was
1.11& The May option closed weak at
almost the bottom, December being down
