CHICAGO. December 21.--Wheat
showed some depression today in
sympathy with the New York stock
market. Bears. however. were not
aggressive, and rally ensued, due
more to lack of selling than to any
special demand. Much Of the interest
of traders continued to center on de-
tariff on farm products. Opening quo
tations. which varied from unchanged
figures to 9. lower. with March 1.63%
:" 1,Gih and May 1.60 to 81. were
followed by material setback all
around. and then q rally that in some
cases went above yesterdays finish.
Corn was firm. owing to export bids
on full working basis by way of the
Gulf Of Mexico. After opening UNI
changed to u OF. including May at
1874 to "A, the market sagged a little
more. but then scored decided ad-
vance.
Oats hardened with corn. starting u
lower to II higher. May, 4sh to 49ss.
and later gaining generally.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
strength to provisions.
