LATE PROFIT TAKING

CHICAGO, Dec. Notwithstanding
that cold wave predictions for the winter
crop belt and lack Of moisture in the
Southwest gave considerable strength to
wheat to-day, profit taking at the last
led 10 declines. The close was weak. Il C.

Corn lost hc. TO &c. and oats y a. hc

changed figures to cents lower.
With forecast out for zero tempera-
lures as far south as northern Kansas
and with complaints current that the
western half of Kansas had received no
rain or snow. and that the western half
of Oklahoma was also excessively dry
the wheat market averaged somewhat
higher until the final half hour Re
vised estimates Of world import require

stimulating influence. Setbacks in VIM

tory progress of the harvest i'm Argen-

Holiday curtailment of the volume Of
trading, too. tended to deprive the mar
ket Of sustained support. Near the end
sellers clearly outnumbered buyers, and
the finish was az the lowest level.
Corn and oats were easy.
Prospective cold weather was con-
strued as bearish.
Action of the hog market governed
provisions.

simply more profittaking than could be

dieted.
During most OF the session 1t looked
as though spinning interests were trans

July. Shorts evened up during the first
two hours and their buying furnished at
times the markets chief support. Liver
pool brokers traded both ways. The
English market opened very nearly az
expected, but sagged. That factor how
ever, was offset by early betterment in
securities and more optimistic reports
from the cotton goods trade.
