Future Grain and Provisions. CHICAGO, Dec. 20.—The wheat market was etrong throughout the entire day.

The principal bullish factor was @ cablegram from Argentina, saying that harvest operations were delayed by wet weather, The market c\ofd strong, with prices practically at the hifhest point of the day. May opened e to %@%c higher at 87Q STige to 87%c, advanced to 87%c and closed B @%ec higher at 875%@87%c. Lively bidding by shorts caused & sharp bulge in the price of December corn early to- day. The price of old December was advanced from b0c, the opening quotation, to Bic, with scarcely a_trade recorded between those fig- Profit_taking caused a severe setback, the old December closing Jc up at 60c. The May option was little affected by the erratio actions of December, but held firm throughout the day, closing Jic up at $4%@ddlec. The oat market heid firm the entire day. May' closed % @%e up at 32%e. Provisions were strong because of an active demand by shorts and local bulls. At the close May pork was up 16@17%c, lard was up 10¢ and ribs were 7T14@10c higher.
