Chicago Grain.

Chicago, Dec. 20.-Strength de- veloped in tha wheat market today as a result of firm cables and of buy ing on the part of the houses with seaboard connections. Action of British authorities in virtually com mandeering vessels so as 10 facilitate the movement of grain from this side of the Atlantic appeared to give con- fidence to the bulls. Current esti- mates that as much as 70 per cent of the crop in the Northwest had left the farms tended also to lift prices. The opening, which ranged from IS c 1c higher. with December at s1.1S and May at s1.19m1.2O was followed by moderate further gains.
 Corn was easier despite the strength of wheat. Cold weather ac'sed as depressing influence. After opaning shade to 3Sc lower, the market rallied but again under went a sag.

STYLES IN PROSPECT
ALREADY THERE IS DISCUSSION
 OF SPRING FASHIONS.
Serge FouIard Will Be One of the Most Popular Fabrics-New Cotton VoiIe That Makes Most Dainty
 House Gowns.

There are no longer merely two fashion seasons of the year. Each of the two seasons has midseason. This Is well.
 Even now there is much talk con- corning the fabrics of spring. It seems like an absurdity, with winter here and the long months to wait be- fore the crocus blooms again. Yet it is not SO absurd, either, for in a very short time the holidays will be upon us and the northern fashion birds will wing their way southward with trunks well packed with, sum- mer togs. .o,-,
 Serge foulard is one of the new lightweight fabrics, and it is excel lent, too, for little frocks to be worn under the heavy coats of fur or velour. The new serve "Trykho" is serge of much grandeur, having a soft, velvety feel that makes it most attractive and rich. Barbeline is a new wool voile, heavier than the or dinary voile, and of stunning shades.
 A new cotton voile has little picked up threads here and there, giving to the fabric 8 design like scattered ladder rungs. For dainty house gowns it is quite adorable. Two colors com bine in many of the new patterns rose and white, white and mauve and white and black.
 A novelty known as "raiebruges" is made of alternating stripes of voile and lace cloth, the cloth formed by leno weave. The effect in two colors is very attractive. Pikella is a new pique, but more supple than the old fashioned fabric that we know. Sa- tella is another piQue. ~
