GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT, Dec 2S-Close. \ smart
advance in the Liverpool price OF
wheat on Wednesday was something OF
"A surprise to the trade. when In otn-
er respects. had bearish news In the
| rain and snow received by the winter
wheat fields of the southwest.
Those who had been building hopes
| on the southwestern dry weather felt
the foundation giving away on w ed
| nesday when they noted the moisture
| that had fallen and was still conlhs
\ down in that section of the country
| Kansas and oklahoma nd good rains
| This tkes awy the chief hope or the
! bulls. but they still figure on de-
| crease in farm sales poth nortnWest
and southwest and a revival or mill
| ing after the holidays, which is expect
ed to cause reduction In the visible
supply II was noted in Chicago on
Tuesday that May wheat was abundant
| about 96c but offerings disappeared
around 951ac. Many dealers think the
| mrket would be benefited by good
! break, as it needs loosening up.
The strength in Liverpool came from
| bullish Argentine news and less raw
orable crop news from England, Ger
many and France. 1t Is also reported
| that the parts OF Kansas that needed
the rain most did not get any.
An early advance in wheat was
TO "a higher. New corn was unchang
ed oats lost lc and the cloverseed
market WAS firm. ~
