CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Dec. 49, F The
light business in grain futures
straddled the market in a dull ses-
sion today and prices dragged out
about where they started, with
fractional gains and losses.
Trading generally was in the ma
ture of evening up commitments
on December deliveries in which
no transactions may be made after
the close of business tomorrow. A
few commission houses bought De-
cember rye somewhat actively in
early dealings to cover short COM
mitments and the price climbed
as much as 3 VI cents a bushel
before more general liquidation
came in, forcing decline.
With the closing Of trading in
December contracts, the activity
began shifting in larger volume
to May and the new crop deliver
les but the buying was well spread.
Wheat closed unchanged from

ceilings; oats Is cent lower to g
higher, December 1875; rye UNI
changed to 81 lower, December
$1.81A1s; barley unchanged to %
lower, December $1.22h.
The government estimate yester-
day of the 1915 corn crop was
noted with general surprise. One
trade authority commented:
although it (the report( shows
reduction of only Sc million bu-
shells in corn as compared with a
month ago, the trade will not gen.
orally accept it at its face value
because Of the wide spread and
general reports Of disappointing
yields, light weight and damp
corn. Taken as a whole, the re-
port has slightly bearish appear
ance, in view of private reports. !"
Some traders were reported to
have expected a reduc ed corn esti-
mate Of as much as 500, 900, 900 bu-
shells.
