Dec. 10 Wheat suffered a material decline in price today largely a3 a result of the British victory vic-tory in the south Atlantic, removing most, if not all danger of German interference with expected big Argentine Argen-tine shipments to Liverpool Com-jaratively Com-jaratively steady cable quotations, lowever, and reports that frost had caused serious crop damage in Argentina Ar-gentina led to some hesitancy here at the start. There were also advices that Emperor William's condition had improved. After opening l-81-4c lower to 18c higher, the market rallied ral-lied a little, but then slid downgrade. Con. developed strength owing to-rough to-rough weather that diminished re- J ceipts. Demand though was not of an urgent character.

A rebound followed that wiped out all tho decline. The close was unsettled l-8l-4 to 3-8o above last night. Inquiry from exporters tended later to harden corn quotations. The close was steady at l-43-8 to 3-8c net advance. ad-vance. Chicago, Dec. 1. Wheat, 2 red, ?1.151.15 2-4; 2 hard. $1.15 1-4(1? 1 1.10.
