CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, December 3.-Wheat made
an upturn today after early weakness,
due to lower cables. The advance chiefly
resulted from scantiness of offerings, a
majority of pit traders having switched to
the bull side. Falling off of 20 per cent
was reported in the Australian crop, as
compared with year ago. Opening
prices were unchanged to Ac down. May
started at 1915 to 80, the same as last
night, to Is off. touched S9aaS9% and
then rose to 9014 a9Oas.
Unsettled weather and Illinois reports
of yields less than expected put strength
into corn. May opened rs lower at 4SA
and advanced to 4SBa4SA.
Oats sympathized with the firmness
that developed in other grain. May,
which started unchanged to 70 easier at
:325s to 32$4. hardened to SO.
Provisions weakened. owing to heavy
run of hogs here and west. First sales
were a shade to 1Oc lower. with May
1S.621to 1855 for pork. 1O.2211A for lard
and $50 to 1921 for ribs.

opening today. Union Pacific rose 13s
and the preferred IL. Southern Pacific
opened with slight gain, but on sub
sequent sales relaxed 11a under yester-
days close. Southern Pacific collateral
As rose two points. The general list was
firm.
Bear operat tors sold Southern Pacific
freely on the theory that the carrying
out of the dissolution order would serious
Iy affect the status of the property. The
price sagged rs to 101, and Union Pacific
also reacted a point. Partial recoverieS

1fested considerable strength.
Weakness Follows Firmness.
Opinions as to the ultimate effect of
the Hartman dissolution decree on the
properties involved varied widely, and
there were feverish fluctuations in the
securities of these roads. Early firmness
was succeeded by pronounced weakness
In Southern Pacific and increasing heavi-
ness in the other securities affected.
Professional operators took the view
that separation of Central Pacific from
Southern Pacific would hinder the de-
velopment and operation of the latter
road. and they sold that stock heavily
until it ruled 5 points under yesterdays
close. Conspicuous strength was shown
by Reading. The general movement of
prices was downward Steel fell below
its recent low level Money rates were
maintained at high figures. with renewals
at o per cent. Bonds were irregular.
Can Drops Three Points.
Liquidation of a large amount of Can
depressed it 3 points and hampered re-
cOveries in other quarters where the
pressure was abating.
Continuous drives against the market
