GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Dec. 90 tP)-Decided i'm
provement of European demand led to
higher prices today for most deliveries
of wheat. December wheat, though,
went lower, on account of the handing
over of $4,000 bushels in month-end
settlement of Chicago contracts.
The corn market was depressed,
largely as result of spreading opera
tions in which corn was sold and
simultaneously wheat or oats were
bought.
Wheat had an irregular finish, &c
net lower to &c to 7sc advance. Corn
closed 1Ac to 5sc to 7$c down, oats Ac
off to shade up, and provisions vary
ing from &c to sc setback to rise of
25 cents
AS much as 1,25O,OOO bushels of
North American wheat was estimated
as having been taken today for ship
ment to Europe. The greater part Of
this amount was Canadian wheat, but
considerable domestic wheat was in
cluded, both spring wheat and winter.

Stimulating effects of today's Euro
pean purchasing we're emphasized by
word of decreasing stocks at Liverpool,
and also by the fact that Argentine
wheat shipments during the last week
were shown to have been a good deal
smaller than for the week previous.
Impetus for the general upward
trend of wheat values was also found
in official confirmation that a large
part of the German wheat crop and
of the German potato crop as we'll, is
of inferior quality and that Germany S
rye production shows 100000 bushels
falling off as compared with prelim-
mary figures On the other hand, a
British authority was responsible for
predictions of liberal shipments of
wheat from Argentina and Australia
after the first of the year, owing to
heavy arrivals of new crop wheat at
ports.
Rather persistent selling pressure
pulled corn prices down after little
