OPINIONS ON WHEAT
GENERALLY MIXED

CHICAGO. Jan. 3.-The Inter- Ocean
says:
Gossip on wheat last night was more
mixed than usual with a good percentage
Of IL Bearsh. Bears are looking for stocks
to pile up more rapidly. Bulls. however,
for all the wheat that comes into sight.
Il was noticeable that traders who have
been bullish on corn Of late were bear
ish yesteday. There are q number Of the
local traders who are bullish and long,
and who appear to be working on the
basis that prices are low enough, rather
than on the actual conditions, according
to the bear view Of it."

for the past "a hours. There has been
some business done at retail. single
horses and pairs. but there is no likli-
hood Of any larger trading being done
until next week Even then the re-
ceipts will be very light, as there is
hardly ever any demand at all during
the closing ten days of the year. No
one buys horses then except those who
see their way to save a bit Of money
by buying at the very least active time
Of the season and providing of course,
that they can find what they want. AS
already noted. most mercantile con-
Germs which require horses IN this bus
mess prefer to postpone purchasing un-
til after taking their balance rom their
books for the past year. They would
rather show the cash in the bank than
the horses IN the stable, even tho they
know that the horses win probably cost
a trif1e more after the break Of the
season.
There win be some sales at auction
next week. probably on Monday and
Tuesday. but there Is no prospect Of
any great run or any great amount OF
business. Bargain hunters who care
nothing about their financial state
ments as 1t Dec. 81 will most likely
get horses cheaper here next week
than for many months to come.
