CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Dec. 4-Tightening up Of inter
est rates on call loans led to decided
bearish reaction in wheat today. As con-
sequence the market closed nervous. at a
range varying from . nc decline to SC ad
vance, with May at s1,72h to $1.72% and
July at s14l%. Corn gained &c to &c,
oats lost Bc\to &c and provisions finished
at NC off 70 a rise of 2hc.
High ratesffor money did not make them
selves felt In the wheat market until the
last half hour Of trading. Then, however,
some thing of stampede took place on the
selling side, and there was nearly COM
plete eclipse Of bulish influence during the
rest OF the day. Lack Of export demand
wss coupled with the unsettlement of the
money market as having much to do with
the late depression In the value Of wheat.
Previously a sharp falling off In the total
United States visible supply had led to a
bulge in prices. especially estimates were
current that the amount Of wheat in re-
serve on forms less than half the ag-
gregate a year ago. The temporary upturn
had heavy handicap in bearish conditions
which gave the market a weak tone at the
beginning
Absence of any sign of immediate relief
from the scarcity Of ocean vessels and from
the congestion of railway facilities was
among the leading factors at the outset In
weakening the confidence of wheat holders.
It was pointed out that exports of wheat of
late from the United States and Canada
were only about half as large as during
the corresponding period last year. EN-
barge moves at Washington counted also
against the bulls.
Shorts who wished to even up trades In
corn found that offerings 635, were I'M
usually light The consequent bulge in
prices, however, was not all held rains in
Argentina having a noticeable bearish eff
feet. Oats were governed chiefly by the &C
tbn Of wheat Nevertheless price changes
kept within narrow limits
Packers buying lard steadies the provision
market in late dealings. Earlier There had
been declines owing TO big receipts of hogs
and TO an increase OF socks of meats at
western points.

sheep--A run OF Sheep and lambs some
thing similar to last Mondays was on hand
this morning. prospects for a fairly liberal
supply being fulfilled when eighty Ave cars,
or some 1880 head. were reported In. This
slightly smaller than last week, but 5000
larger than either two weeks ago, or the
corresponding Monday last year.
What the fat lamb trade was a little
slow In starting. the feeling was firm from
the very outset. and as a general thing
sellers asked somewhat higher prices.
Only few odd loads sold up to mid.
forenoon. but about 10 o'clock things began
70 pick up little, and by IL practically
everything had been cleaned up. AS q
dime higher. On paper the market
showed even more advance than that. but
choice lambs seemed to be more pientif,,l
Than at last weeks close. Quite a number
OF sales were made as high as sl2.4o, which
price breaks all yard records. the best pre
vious price having been sl2.35. Buzz Of
the offerings sold upwards from 81 100.
Clipped lambs reached sl0.75, a new high
mark for the season, with one little pack
age clipped so long ago that they carried
good fleeces at $685.
liberal run OF ewes found prioe. sho,,
me same as last week Nothing real choice
was offered, several bands Of a decent sort
selling at $3.50, with the best here at "a 90
Feeders were very scare. One load of
real good lambs. which was about the univ
load Of real feeders here, lust suited a
buyer and brought sl1.5o. This sets a new
record. beating last weeks high mark by

Monday since three weeks ago. Early es-
Inmates placed the supply at 136 cars, or
10, 200 head, which Is 1000 short of last
week. ami over 1000 smaller than two weeks
ago. though It u . few hundred heavier
than year ago.
Chicago reported Just q steady trade, but
the local market opened q little better than
that. There was . tolerabiy broad outlet
for anything that was on the weighty or
der and packers bought rather freely Of
the heavies and good butchers as long as
they lasted. paying prices that were fully
steady to In spots a. much as be higher.
Some of the best lights also found an out
let on this basis, especially where they
were able to sell along with q string Of
weightier stuff.
As general thing, however. the light
hog trade was In much the same shape ~
at the close Of last week. Buyers passed
up everythingsthst lacked weight whenever
they could. In many stances refusing TO even
! leave bids, and seller who could cash q
drove Of light stuff at anything like steady
prices considered himself mighty lucky. As
II was there were at least twenty five loads
OF the lighter hogs left after practically all
the desirable hogs had been cleaned up.
Most OF these had gone without bids all
morning and some were carried from last
week.
To put 1t plainly there was no definite
market for lights on the close. As several
sellers put 1t. they had to take what they
could get, and even then there were some
thing like fifteen or twenty loads unsold ut
noon. Bulk Of the hogs sold at s9.40@9
with lights scattered on down. Tops landed

Omaha Future Market.
The export demand was somewhat i'm
proved today and this fact. together with
stronger Liverpool cables. forced an early
rise in the market
This rise In May and July wheat was
only temporary and while July wheat closed
strong the May article dropped back to
Sl.6sh and closed at $1,6s&.
Corn advanced about IN cents on the
May article as a result OF covering by
shorts who had oversold on the last break.
December oatsNw very quiet, but there
was fairly active trade in the May article,
which closed about iic lower.
Local range of options.
