LOCAL WHOLESALE MARKET.
Dealers have not been advised that
any unusually large shipments of tur-
keys are on their way to this city to
overstock the Christmas market
Fairly liberal supplies have been re-
ceived. however. and choicest stock is
expected to bring not moro than Is
cents q pound.
There has been a decrease In re-
ceipts Of chickens and ducks. raisers
probably holding back their supplies
Tor the New Year market. when there
is not great demand for turkeys and
when chickens are in demand.
Butter and eggs continue high. with
small receipts. while receipts OF fruits
and vegetables are more than enough
to supply demands.

ToDAY's CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. December Wheat
turned downward in price today dur
ing the early dealings. after a little
| show of strength at the start. Con-
| tinuation of yesterdays selling on the

bearish influence. Initial upturns
were ascribed to firmness Of Liver

| price on this side of the Atlantic. The
opening here. which ranged from y
decline to y advance. with May 1.24h
to 1.24k and July l.l3H to la. was
followed by slight gains and then by
a setback all around to below yester-
| days finish.
Liberal receipts OF corn here tende ed
| to pull down prices Of corn and oats
| After opening u to y higher. May
1871 to 73H. the corn market under.
