ELcN CROP REPORTS MAKES
MARKET NERVOUS.
NO SHORTAGE IN NORTHWEST,
As TRADERS HAD EXPECTED
Wheat Market Opened Higher But Re-
esdsd-corn Started Firmer With
Wheat But Eased Baek-Oats Weak
On Leading Elevator Concerns Sell
ino-Fss6is Support in Provisions.

Chicago, Dec. lit was a nervous
uncertain market today in wheat Al
the outset prices were higher on ac-
count Of a disposition to discount re-
cent optimistic estimates of the Ar
gentine crop. Reports that heavy rains
had made the prospects less favorable
in the South American belt and har-
vesting had been somewhat interfered
with attracted considerable attention
On the other hand, receipts at points
northwest Of Chicago showed none OF
the falling off which many Of the trad
'ers were watching for so eagerly. De-
lfveries here on December contracts
were large but went into strong hands
and had little effect on prices. The
opening was Il to g higher. May
started at 1915 @ssA to s9A q IS and
advanced "a to g, but fell to ss%4 a
ssh.
A big decrease IN northwest stocks
caused q sudden advance. Heavy re-
tduction in the estimate Of the world S
crop counted also against the bears.
The close was steady, May s94s and
s9ss. net gain of a.
Corn.
Corn started frrner with wheat. Of
ferings increased, however, on the
bulges and as a result the market cas-
ed back May opened Il to Il up at
64% @644. and dropped to 64A.
Shorts recovering brought about a
rally. The close was steady !. up at
SAY for May.
Oats.
Selling on the part Of leading ele-
vator concern made oats weak. May
started unchanged to a shade lower, at
4sh to 4sN to 1875. and sagged to
49h.
Provisions.
Only feeble support developed for
provisions. Initial sales were 21a low
or to 21a higher, with May deliveries at
1850 for pork, s9.52hs for lard, and
ss72k @S.7S1a for ribs.

PROGRESS ON
 THE P0RGUPINE

Daniel Cadzow, who for the past 2 years has conducted trading post at Rampant House on the Porcupine river. returned on the last trip Of the Princess May enroute to his home. He went outside to purchase a stock of goods which was brought along on the same boat.
 The boundary survey parties make Cadzow's place their headquarters getting some of their supplies from him. Mr. Cadzow says that these parties have a hard task before them and he thinks it will require a much Iongre time to complete the work than has been contemplated, owing to the difficulties with which they must contend The country to the north is largely a succession Of bald hills. bare of timber and intensely cold in the winter time
 There are at the present time only five permanent white settlers, Of which he is one, in the entire coun- try Most of his trade has heretofore been with the natives who get great quantities of furs in that section.
 That section of the country he says has had but very little done to it in the way of prospecting but there are splendid indications where work has been done that it win be a producer of gold some time The prospects found so far are on streams flowing into the Arctic and in tribu- taries of the old Crow river
 The formation is mica-schist and slate with plenty of quartz in cvi- deuce. The territory on the Ameri can side is just as favorable for pros pecting as across the line where he is located according to his views.
 He thinks that if there were a regular steamboat service up there that the country would long ago have developed mining on a successful scale but that the lack of trausporta- ,ion has held the country back.
