Grain and Provisions.

Gram and PROVISIONS. l Chicago, Dec. 14.-Opinions that
 with a retur nof normal weather the
 arrivals of corn would increase tended
 today to- ease the corn. market. The
 fact, however, that reJGpts yet con
 tinued meager prevented any radical
 decline. Trading, nevertheless, showed more activity than has been the rule of late. Opening prices, which ranged from 3-8c off to 1-aa advance, with January at $1.21 IA and May at $1.19 3-8@1.19 1-2, were followed by a moderate setback all Leading houses put considerable selling pressure on oats and brought about a decided sag in quotations. The favorite theory was that four days advance in prices was more than enough.
 Reports that ideal conditions to .im- prove the quality of the cro :pexisted were of somesa advantage to the bears. Prices closed steady at the same as yesterdays finish to 3-8c lower, with January eat $1.21 IA and May at s1.19.
