CHICAGO, Dec. 9.-wheat-A range of &c
in the active trading future, about much
above below yesterdays closing levels,
tells the volume of trade in wheat today.
Trade was almost as narrow the tiuctua-
uons, but stubbornness was disclosed on
either side. Conditions not materially dt-
ferent from yesterday. harvest is under way
and favorable conditions in Argentina and
cargoes are being offered freely In Europe at
easier prices. Dry weather conditions in the
winter wheat belt in this country, with the
result that cash wheat is firmly held every
where although the demand keeps very poor.
Primary receipts larger than year ago. part
OF increase aue to strike northwest and part
due to larger marketings southwest, where
arrivals are over three times large as a
year ago and were stimulated by the recent
SHOWS While the buying today was quietly
done, it was persistent and on a scale down
by brokers ANA commission houses who usu-
ally act for la ger elevator interests.
Corn ruled generally higher, December gain
ing materially on the deferred months, but
none of the futures holding their entire early
gains There was further selling by intiu-
entail interests good part of the day. Some
of the local longs took advantage of the
early scWeu to unload. December tightness

oats t,ade not large. There was some COW
ering early by shorts who were influenced by
strength in corn. Moderate selling pressure
caused a reaction later from high prices,
most of early fractional advance being lost.
Liberal trade in provisions. January shorts
did a lively dance, longs proddei the shorts
in all months and supplied them with product
leisurely on the swells and there was ma
terial progress in the way of upward ad-
justment of product to hog prices.

including linters. published at o'clock,

jumped half cent. establishing new high rec
ords for the season. 1t will be relief to the
trade to have report Of so much importance
out of the way, as now the spinners and all
others concerned in cotton cotton goods can
adjust their Ideas as to what crop OF less
than 2,O00 900 bales Is worth per pound and
act accordingly in their operations, either spec
ulatively or for their milling purposes The
large short interest was most likely, covered

The action of the Rock Island is the

of their type, the sensational sue

now comedy mad. Every one wants
to laugh, and the big serious dramas

The scenes of The Money and the
Grip are laid in America at the pres

wholesome. exuberant, likable young
fellow. and a pretty young American
girl. There are humorous complica-
tons, situations so funny that it is i'm
possible to adequately picture them
without their actually happening be-

is plot whose development is so
original and unique that its outcome
is in doubt until the curtain is actual
