CHICAGO GRAIN.
by JOSEPH F. PRITCHARD.

Chicago. Dec s.-Thers were further sensa-
tional declines in the price Of cash corn today.
These rec -ssUns were much as 20c for certain
descriptions Of the new com and only &c for
other kinds. There is little or no old corn
available. and manufacturers and others In the
trade must be content with the new corn to
meet their demands There were cash sales
Of round lots with the exception Of 1000 bush
els. and more would have been placed had 1t
been available.
Generally speaking tho corn market was dull
and the busness N futures practically
without feature. Prices held within a narrow
range. and resting spots for the day were nc
higher for the Decomber and Nc to lc for the
defsrred mouths.
There was considerable pressure In the oats
market. and final prices showed declines Of lc
to nc Early in the session the offerings were
quickly absorbed. but they increased as the day
wore away. The decline showed the lowest fig
ures for the week. and those in the cash market
predicted further rrice losses the coming week.
There was an easier market for provisions and
the volue OF trade was small The big business
done in cash meats and lard 4 few days ago
was still fresh in the minds of the speculative
world. and this helped values more than any
thing else.
