CHICAGO. January 5.-General CON-
mission house selling, together with
lack Of support. led to material de-
clines today in the wheat market
Signs pointed to slowing down OF OK
port call, and 1t was contended on the
bear side that foreign buying OF
wheat in this country was about at an
end. Talk was also current that mill
ing demand had fallen off somewhat
Opening prices. which ranged from 1s
to 2 lower. with March 1.72 to 1.72 u
and May l.86 to 18TH, were followed
by a. decided further setback.

Firmer: spring patents. S.boal0.00;
spring clears, 7.75a8.50; winter
straights. s.26; Kansas straights. s.2s
as.75.
Lard-Steady: middle west, 13.35a
1915. other articles unchanged.
Elowness of eastern demands count
ed later as an additional bearish corn
influence. The close was unsettled,
y to INC net lower. with May. TAM
to TAN.
Subsequently further setbacks re-
suited from advices that Argentina was
offering wheat to Germany 15c to zoe
cheaper than United States wheat can
be obtained. The wheat market closed
nervous, 3h to Az net lower. with
March 1879 to 1.SsA and May 1854 to
1.64A.
