CHICAGO, Dec. 10.—Wheat was a moderately active market. Speculators were swayed by contlicting emotions and in consequence prices | cut a somewhat irregular path. May, in which the best trade now centers, opened l4c under Q.lurdny at 73%@78c, and dunn' the first half | hour declined to T2%c. The crowd was in a majority of cases short, but not worrylng about | it, ‘although Liverpool ‘showed great steadiness | 15 the face of Saturday's slump here. World's | shipments last week were 6,024,000 bushels, about what had been expected. The amount on paseage decreased 206,000 bushels. The bear- ishness, however, was due largely to the ex- pectation that the visible supply would show no particular decrease amd possibly an in- crease to ltberal Northwest reports and to the leck of outslde support, which has depressed prices here recently. Later in the day when it was shown that the visible had decreased 685, 000 shels, the previous confident shorts br gan covering and May was bid up sharpl; 3%%c.
