DECLINE IN WHEAT
 LIN HEAVY SUPPLY
Australian Crop Is Said to Be
 Biggest on Record
RECEIPTS ARE LIBERAL
Over Shipments nnd the Close Is Lower-Oats Close Lower
 and Provisions Higher

Chicago, December 17.-With the Aus tralian supply of wheat the largest on record, and with primary receipts in this country greatly in excess of year ago, the market here eased off a little today The close was at a net decline of shade to 5sc Corn and oats both finished 1sQAc to A@ssc under last night. In provis- ions the latest figures were unchanged to 10c up.
 At no time during the day was there any aggressive buying to lift values in the wheat pit. The apparent reason was the official report of the crop in New South Wales, bearing out assertions from merchandising quarters that the Aus tralian yield is large one and with 15,- o00,OOO bushels carried over from the pre- vious year makes the supply there the heaviest on record Liverpool dispatches. however, spoke of fear of manipulation in Chicago offsetting the effect of cheaper offerings from Australia.
 On the other hand primary receipts in the United States were extremely liberal compared with 12 months back, so much so as almost to equal the volume of corn. Nevertheless there seemed to be no dis position for the time being to put out any new short lines. The tone of the mar ket, therefore, as the day wore on was in the main fairly steady.
 May ranged from 951sc to 95sc and closed 1kc off at 95ssc.
 Corn weakened because the weeks re- ceipts here were nearly 100000 bushels more than were shipped out. May sold from 4714c to 475sc and finished 1sQ14c off a 47AG473sc. Cash demand was decidedly slack. No. yellow closed at 5011q51c.
 The northwest sold good deal of cash oats to local December shorts today and predicted large arrivals here next week. Primary receipts for the last seven days were the largest in five years. May Auctuated between 3S%c and 341s@34Ac c with final sales 1k@a4c down at BAG.
 Provisions became strong and weak by turns. Business though was almost en- tirely local In the end traders who had been bearish all week were on the bull side and there was a net rise of 21ec to 10c In pork. lard was unchanged to Dc higher and ribs were up 21kc to 5c.
 E'uture .olIotations were as follows.

SMALL GAINS MADE IN COTTON MARKET
Bullish Figures on Consump-
 tion Bring Steadiness
BUYERS ARE WAITING
While the Closing Figures of the Mar ket Are the Highest Bulls Are Waiting for Next Weeks
 Census Report

New York, December 17.-A generally steady tone was imparted to the cotton market today by bullish estimates of European consumption, and while there was continued realizing, which caused some irregularity, the close was steady at a net advance of.2 to points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 1 to 6 points in response to higher cables than expected and during the first few minutes sold to points net higher on the publication of an esti- mate by one of the leading English trade authorities placing the weekly consump- tion of Great Britain and the continent at 175,0O0 bales during November, against 10000 bales during the same period last year. The same authority estimated the mill stocks of Great Britain and the continent as of December 1 at 1,385, 900, against 1,562, 900 last year. This showing was considered bullish but failed to stim- ulate fresh outside buying, probably ow- ing to uncertainty as to the showing of the census report next Tuesday and the market during the middle of the morning eased off 1 or 5 points from the best under selling.
 Later, however, there was renewal of bull support and the market reached the highest point of the day in the late trading, with the close only a little off from the best. The weekend figures received a bullish interpretation, but re- views of the week from Fall River con- tinue to indicate an unsuccessful busi- ness, the total sales being estimated at only 5000 pieces
 Receipts at the ports today 42,oS7 bales, against 6S,753 last week and 36,501 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans lO,612 bales, against 3125 last year.

Sings Wares to Throngs

From the NeW OTK SuH
 As in former seasons Metropolitan opera house spectators bedevil pedes- trains, but this year they have struck a note of originality that robs their In sistence of half its terrors One man with a voice which in its better days might have been good eonugh for the variety stage has memorized snatchcs of the operas popular airs and sings them softly to a libretto whose theme Is the location and price of the seats he has to sell. Tickets! Tickets! Nothing inside <for less than $5. Get 'em here for $1.50." and so on with variations to'tne tune of Celeste Aida and "Elizabeth's Prayer" Another has taken a leaf from the note book of a Coney Island barker and gets off a monologue calculated to make the mad dest man on Broadway stop and listen even if he doesn't buy.

Hubbard Bros. N Co.'S Letter

New York December 1z.-(Special )-The trade is still in doubt over the meaning of the estimate of the India crop as given yesterday by the English government, but as Liverpool advanced slightly it was ac- cepted that the current belief in a smaller crop than last season was correct MT. Ellison increased his estimate of the con- sumption by English spinners 10000 a week for November over october, so the total consumption of Europe Is now estimated at 175,C00, as against 170,000 last year. Our market was>a steady one, with firm un- dertone on these advices and advanced slowly to the close. In the last few min utes there was a large selling order to take profits. which checked the improve raent but the traders expect a higher market in Liverpool on Monday and a small ginners report on Tuesday.

 You look tired, dear" said the young wife and mother. 'I'll bring your eggs to you in a moment" ffsf :
 She went into the kitchen and he ru- minated. The mere thought of eggs was irconceivably wrong to him. And he looked over at his young son, not able to talk yet. and 8 happy thought struck him.
 The eggs were brought. N
 "Dearie," said husband, most sweetly. "f brought home with me last night a Chopin nocturne. You might try 1t over while eat my eggs. I want to see how it goes before I go to the office."
 She knew her husbands fad was music, so she went into the next room of the apartment and played the nocturne.
 And meanwhile husband called over his young son and fed him the eggs.
