Chicago, Dec. 17.-Whsat--The trade

port appeared there e very little
change in the market The entire
range for the day was only IS cent, and
at the close prices were unchanged

port is undoubtedly bearish fcx the
time being.
weather over a part OF the belt and i'm
p-ovemenr in the cash markets corn
was steady all DAY, closing IS to q
higher. The demand for cash corn,
however, continues largely from eleva-
tor people who today bought No. 8
corn, ordering it direct TO store. Altho
there were reports Of damage by in
sects to Argentina crop, further re-
ceipts Of Argentina corn are reported
arriving at the seaboard and more is
offered at lowest prices on the crop.
About the only feature in the market
today was apparent uneas;ness OF
shorts in December wheat furnished all
the buying in that delivery.
Oats-The oats market showed no
new features, closing practically I'M
changed, the range for the day being
only about Is cents. Canadian oats
are being offered, all rail shipment, TO
the eastern seabcard at prices under
Chicago.

pected and closes steady at slightly
higher prices. Besides the scattered
investment demand which has been
apparent from day to day, it has also
been noticed that packing interest
appeared TO support the market at

chieaao Horse Market.

Chicago, Dec. 17.-Only scattering
orders were filed for horses this fore
noon, the trend Of the trade generally
being slow. A few bargain hunters
were moderately active n there was
quite a demand for horses good other
wise, but with some out about them
that lowered the selling value without
detracting materially from their useful
ness. At that there was no well dehn-
ed. broad demand for any class. There
is nothing strange about the demand
during his particular week OF the year
bing slow. and It would be
strange indeed If. with all
other commercial interests marking
time, as it were. the horse trade should
be booming. Fortunately the run Is
by no means burdensome n quite a
