CHICAGO, December 8.-Rains IN
Argentina and news from indianapons
about plans to finance exports gave con.
siderable strength to the wheat market
today, but a reaction soon took place.
Selling, in which houses with eastern
connection were conspicuous, proved
soon to be more than counteroalance
for the bulffsh factors which had ae,
veloped overnight. Bears contended
that urgent foreign buying of wheat in
the United States was nearing an end
and was likely to be followed by re-
selling. Initial quotations. which ranged
from Y to IN higher. with December
were succeeded by breaks ito well be-
low yesterdays finish. a.. ~;
In corn as wen as in wheat their was
persistent eastern selling. After open
ing unchanged to y higher. fncludjng
May at 7sz to TN. underwent q gen
eral sag. ;.
Oats were governed chiefly by the ac-
ton Of other grain, starting " off to
" higher, May SIX to 52h,. and then
tending downward. .s'.sr''t
i Provisions showed firmEess, in line
with the hog market.
