GRAIN

CHICAGO, Dec. 27--Let up in foreign
demand had decided bearish effect on
to-day's wheat market Notwithstanding
reduction of vessel rates to Europe. The
market closed heavy at l " to 3N net
lower. with March $1.63A to s1.63h
and May s1.5SM to $3.50. Corn finished
at 1h decline to a advance, and oats
off ]; TO q cent and provisions down
90 to 40.
Unusual interest attached to develop
ping Board had reduced ocean rates to
Europe from 10 shillings hundred
weight to shllings. That cut was
expected to place United States wheat
again below that of Argentina in price
because OF the freight differental. An
nouncement of the cut, however, was
without any immediate apparent in
fluence as a stimulus to foreign buying
in this country. The fact that it was
holiday abroad and that foreigners sell
dom take hold at this season was re-
garded in some quarters as the reason.
On the other hand, bears contended that
world supplies were ample and that
chances were against any lasting ad-
vance based on emergency tariff duties
or on revival of food credits to Europe.
Indications Of an increase of the crop
movement acted as handicap against
the bulls i'm the corn trade and in oats
as we'll Besides Eastern demand for
corn and oats was very slow.
Provisions gave way with cereals
after a temporary upturn due to
strength In the market.

COTTON.

The cotton market was featured yes
terday by a decline OF nearly half
cent a pound late In the day, when a
renewal OF Southern selling and profess
sional pressure appeared rather sud-
denly. on the whole the day was with
out particular feature and new business
limited 10 a few scattered evening UP
orders. There was a marked indisposi-
ton on the part of local operators to
withhold new commitments prior to
the first of the year. which, with lack
OF new factors. made general trading
tame. The only early feature was the
covering of January shorts. which
