TRE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Big Trade in Wheat at a Lower Range of Values. LITTLE DEMAND FOR CORN. Oats Quict and Basy—Nothing Start. & In Provisions—-Cattle Slower and Prices Abont the Same as torday —Hogs, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cuieaao, Dec. Special Telegram to Tur Bre.|~There was a big trade in wheat futures. today at a lower rango of values. Rouna 1ots of 100,000 bushels and upwards were tossed about as freely and as frequently a8 “little blocks of fives' usually are, Liqui- dation on a large scale and covering of good sizod Iines us well as rencwed speculative solling for local and New York accounts were the main features, Old tine bo following up their time honored tac ting down the tired and cowardly markot ems to be statistically and legitina in a strong position. The local market may yesterday because of *the unloading of 1y hold whneat and the extension of short. but lweral realizing of protits on wheat 1sly sold may leave it more evenly adjusted thun is generally suoposed, in which event the bulging force looked for from the oversold wmarket may be lacking. In t ageregate the volume of trade was very large, but it WS not a misc s or wildly scattered trade. Heavy ntrated lines were bought and sold in big chunks, nearly all large commission houses and brokers usually identified with heavy individual operators being kept busy. May opened at 83, sales boing made Jater at $3@siige. A lively bat- tle began at 88c, and there was big trading atand around 828 @s2ie, William Young, Brosseau, Millm and Bodman, Schwartz & Dupce, Linn, Baker and others had wheat 1o sell, and the support, though strong, was unequal 1o the task of maintaining values, The market gave away with a crash and went 1o $¥ie. For an hour or moro it held steady at and near 82, but shortly beforo 10'clock there was’ renewed selling ¢ a large scale by Dunham and others, and the market again went to pot. This time the price got to 82¢, amid the greatest excite- ment. Further covering on an extensive scale was a feature of this latest break. The last quotation was 82';¢ or bolow yesterday. A fair degree of actiyity was discoverable in the nearer months, January opened at TN$@787¢e, ranged from 8756 down to 7iZgo and closed at llm inside. December opened at 783ge sold off to 77e, and the last quotation was i7'ge. As loIVI]PflI‘Ll with yesterday this shows a 10ss of 135@1* in December” and e in January. The Toreign markets came in from quiet and to wealr. Yesterday there were a good many open orders for foreign account close to the market but these orders must have been very generally withdrawn, for little ‘im- portant business was reported from any quarter, Minneapolis wired early that 40,000 bushels of wheat had been worked there for direct export shipment. Today’s table of clearanees from Atlantic ports shows that an amount in wheat and flour equal to 815,616 bushels went out. Of this quantity 25,000 bushels was in the shape of flour, The movement of spring ‘Wwheat is about steaay and the southwestern move- ment of grain of all kinds is on the increase Noither the speculative or shipping inquiry for wheat seems to be very active at any centers and all American markets refloct weakness, though perhaps in a mwor key. ‘There was a very small amount of business done by the corn speculators and that showed weakness to {vrn(mnderx\la. Buyers for the present month were few aund they knew where to apply when they wanted any. A prominent operator stood ready to supply all demanas for December corn, but he did not press sales upon an unwilling market. There was oue sale made today, 1800 delivery, at 8le, Towards the end a firmer feeling pre- vailed and closing prices were just a shade hieber than at the correspondiug time on Thursday. Receipts wore slightly in ex- cess of yesterday's cstimates and the gra ing was still notfoeably poor, only 24 cars being inspected as No. 2 out of 22 received. The clearances from “lE Allnn'.h) seaboard were liberal and the foreign markets firm with gooa demand for shipment on both do- mestic and foreign account. The closing prices show very little change since yester- day. ‘They were: December 31%{c, January 81(@B12y0, Moy Onts were quiet and easy. Pair selling orders appeared and with depression els where and the lack of uuy-pmm support, May sold off }ic to ¥23{c, while near months were practically ged. The receipts exceeded the estimate 45 cars and the out- ward movement according to the inspection sheet was unimportant, No. 2 regular was saluble ut 203ge with trading confined Lo sam- ples. It was estimated thut most of the sell- ng on future account was by operators who have recently supported the New York bull movement. Proyisions were quict, arly in the ses- sion there was a little stir resulting from an effort by the Avglo-American _company to boom lard, but 1t speedily subsided. No out- side interest to speak of was exbibited, and with local traders un_evideat disinclination existed to branch out. The day's market, however, was controlled by a comparatively strong tone, It was quite well supported, and the fluctuations reported covered only a swall range. Compared with yesterday clos- ings were unchanged for January povk, De- cember ana May lurd and future short ribs. May pork and January lard sustained an ad- vance of 2go. CHIVAGO LIVE STOUK, Cnmiorgo, Dec. 13.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee]—Carrie—The cattle business was rather slow and prices abgut the sume for the past three days.

New Yors, Dec, 18.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bre |—Stocks—The really active stocks for the first hour were Sugar Refin- eries aud Lackawanna, while the rest of the list was quiet to dull and rule devoud of features. First prices were steady as com- pared with last ovening's Hiures, a large wumber being unchanged, while others were but slight fractions different. In the won- eral list there was a slight drooping teu- dency, though Sugar developed considerable streugth aud moved up over 1 per cent and Lackewauna advanced fractionally. Chi- cago and Eastern Ilinois sold down to 81, #gainst 831 last evening, and the pre- ferred to S19{, against 831, Tennessee Coal aiso dropped from 7710 73, The hour which followed was marked by a broader market with some sharp changes and irreg- ular prices at uoon. Sugar aftor selling at B63¢ went off to 5514, the opening price, from ‘which there was a strong upward move of nearly 4 points to 50. Chicago Gas dropped to 89 and rallied with sugar to 403. Tho ©0ai slocks becawe strong also. Lackawanua { and Reading moved up 3¢ to 89%. Missouri Pacific also gained 1 or better 10 67%.

Friday, Dec, 18, It is no easy matter to convey a correct idea of the state of the market on the ordi- pary kinds of half fat beeves. Chicago was reporting the market the worst of the season on that class of cattle whicn helped to make the market worse here. It is a very mild way of expressiug it Lo say that the more un. desirable grades were a drag aud the next thing to unsalable, or as & buyer expressed it, the market on such cattle was ‘‘rotten.’ A very cousiderable provortion of the cattle of that kind that are coming bave to sell at Dealers generally do not look or any decided lwprovement until there is & heavy deerease iu the receipts and the war- keta of the country are given an onportunity 10 recover. There was a demand for the bet- tor grades of beeves and anything coming under that head sold quite readily. There beeves good enough to loce of n load of fancy stoers sold . The feeder trade was light as both the cattic and demand was hmited. Drices, but anything common was slow salo. Ho The mdrket opened easier but the buyers wanted the hogs too badly to hold off very long for a o . Thiey picked up a few loads early at o prices, They did not seom disposed to be vory bearish and the market closed strong. On secount of the carly trading a larger pronc will'be found at £3.40 and & tho general market could hard otherwise than steady. The hogs sold more freely and salesmen appeared moro roady to sell at the vrices than yestorday. The yardis were cleared before the middle of the fore- noon, r be l[unlml Sheep. There was a heavy runof sheep again to- day, but the demand was limited. N Cattle. Hogs, Sheep Horses .
