roDAY's CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. T.ecember -1s.--Wheat un-
derwent a decline in price. today dAr-
ing the. early. dealings. the chief fac
tor being the bearish showing of the
government crop report. Besides,
! Liverpool quotations were relatively
weak and with less favorable talk
about loan to Germany buyers lack
ed encouragement. Assertions In some
quarters that the exceptionally low
other parts Of the government report
failed to stir up any special en-
! thusiasm. The opening. which varied
from y to Y. lower. with May.-1.2&1s
70 l.2S, and July, 1.15A to 1.1oes. was
followed BY material setback all
around. o..
Corn and oats saEeed with wheat,
Alter opening i to y lower. May.
14rs to 75is. the corn market rallied
a little. but then descended lower
than before.
Oats started unchanged to ssah off.
May. AN. and later showed moderate
losses throughout all deliveries.
indications Of delay for farm credit
bills at Washington counted as an
additional bearish influence, but per-
sistent buying on declines led to
rally in wheat near the end Of the
day. The close was unsettled. y
net lower to 4 advance. with May
l25h to l.25k and July 1.l5ki to
1.15S.
