CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Dec. MISUNDERSTANDING
the bearish character of the govern
ment report published yesterday the
wheat market opened strong today be-
cause of an advance of IS to e pence
in the price of wheat al Liverpool.
Initial quotations showed gains of "a
to q compared with the previous close,
May being at 1.10Ss to 110Hs, and De-
cember al 1.13A.
The opening bulge brought out liberal
offerings from prominent commission
houses and this selling oon caused a
| reaction. all of the opening gains be-
ing lost. May declined to 1.10H@A, and
| December to 1.12Z. Likelihood that re-
ceipts in the Northwest will increase
greatly within a few days was a bear
ish factor.
Corn prices declined still further. ow-
ing the renewed liquidation based on the
liberal yield in tins country. as indi-
Gated by the government report. Prices
at the start were 4 lower to q higher,
with May ct 65k@ss to $50. After
touching 651s. May dropped to 65h.
Oats were also weak because of sell
ing inspired by the government report.
which showed the new crop to be the
largest one on record. The May deliv-
cry opened a shade lower to IS higher,
at 44la@ss to 444. and sold off TO l4lz.
Provisions were strong on active de-
mand by shorts based on smaller re-
ceipts of live hogs here than generally
expected. Prices at the opening were
unchanged to 20 cents higher.

WALL STREET NOTES.

Some disa ppointment is expressed
that the Bank of England rate was not
lowered today in view of the high cash
reserve held. 1t is considered all the
more significant in view of the high
price of sterling exchange on London.
which yesterday reached a point at
which gold exports TO Europe We're
freely discussed. The unfortunate part
of this situation is hat the United
States is not making credits abroad
by the sale of commodities, and gov
statistics issued yesterday
showed a miserably small balance of
trade f~avoring us. Should gold begin
to be exported. brokers look for a check
in the upward movement of prices. and
IA short sales. On the other hand,
the effect of the increase in the Read
ing dividend will be favorable. Brokers
expect increases in the Pan Handle
dividend, and Southern Pacific common
win receive a larger cash dividend.
The latter stock can be bought with
profit at these figures. An improvement
in Coppers Is also expected.
