Stockers and feeders were the first cat

cattle were moderate, while there was
some little inquiry on the part OF yard

Such cows' and heIfers as buyers seemed
to want were fully steady and the mar

The only business in the cash arucie

The longs in December corn weres given
more or less trouble by the ffee 'ue-

cember 81 There were 4, 4S9,0OO bushels OF
corn received at Chicago last week, we en-
while the shipments were only eSiVVV
bushels. These facts show that a great
deal of corn has been made TO grace
either No. or No, 2, and that while the
amount already sent out has been no

even up their position by sending out
the actual grain There were n,26l,OO
bushels of corn received at primary mar
kets during last week, which compares
with S,2000OO mushels last year.
The trend of oats was downward dur
ing last week, and there rs likely to be no
encouragement to speak of for holders
for some time to come. or until there Is
a better demand for the cash grain.
Provision market presents an over
bought appearance. Many of those who
had an idea that the run of hogs at the
western markets would show big falling
off before now and who loaded up with
products In the belief that we are to
have sharp advances, have been left with
the bag to hold. There is little specula-

MILWAUKEE ROAD Is
LAYING OFF SOME MEN

While II is pushing the construction of
its double track work across Iowa and
rebuilding the line, at the same time the
Milwaukee Is laying off large number
OF men at various points on the system.
The lay-off is on account OF slack bust
ness. following the heavy movement Of
freight during November and December
The reduction in forces is thought to be
only temporary and that soon after the
first of the year II Is believed that the
men will b. put back at work. Up to
this time the reduction has not struck

CHICAGO GRAIN AND rhovrsIoNs
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices ON Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2S.--Sudden shrinkage
OF offerings from the country made the
corn market today the speculative leader
both in activity and strength. Prices
closed firm at an advance of "a to 2sc
net. Other staples, too, all showed a
gain-wheat, " to 18sc; oats, % to lsc, and
provisions, 5@71s to 121Rc.
From the outset trade in corn was on
a large scale. At first commission houses
were almost unanimous in taking to the
bear side, influenced apparently by con-
tinuance of liberal receipts Sentiment,
however, began TO change when the gov
eminent forecast hinted that a touch of
Arctic weather was at hand. 1t was not
long afterward that rural advices APP
peared conclusive as to quick ending
OF heavy shipments to Chicago and other
shorts In corn abruptly found them
selves competing with longs. The result
was a sharp upturn in prices all around
and especially so I'm the December de-
livery. No apparent reaction occurred and
the market closed at the top figures OF
the day.
Wheat. like corn. developed a firm tone
after an easy start. The transient weak
ness was a reflection of lower cables, and
seemed to be little II at all the result of
announcement that Argentine wheat
could now enter the United states duty
free. On the other hand, Buenos Ayres
dispatches telling of a further reduction
in the estimated export surplus had a
noticeable effect in favor OF the bulls
Winnipeg strength, which also counted
against the bear side, was attributed to
the Canadian railroads having made lower
rates TO the seaboafd. Failing off in
Minneapolis and Duluth receipts with
cut in Chicago stocks formed additional
helps in turning prices upwards.
oats simply followed the course of
other grain. There was fairly good buy
ing on resting orders.
Hog receipts. fewer than expected, put
backbone into provisions. Much OF the
investment was by traders who sold out
