CHICAGO, Nov. "A somewhat better
feeling was noticeable ON 'change to-day,
all tie markets being stronger than at the
close of yesterdays business. At the be-
ginning of the day q general weakness
prevailed, but, influenced more or less by
the weather, there was rally all along
the line, the loss of the early hours was re-
covered and slight advance made and
sustained. At the close cereals and pro-
visions were tolerably firm at full closing
prices. On the board wheat showed the
least strength. The trading
in this cereal was only moderate. At
times speculation was fair, but
the interest developed was short lived, and
the days business was on the whole slow
and somewhat dragging in its character.
Operators seemed to be reluctant to
branch out, and while the feeling was
stronger than on yesterday prices averaged
easier. The days decline, however, was
confined to 1s@1c on the futures traded
in. January and May. the quarter being
lost by the latter; month and December
held unchanged. These prices are shade
stronger than the closing figures yes
terday afternoon, and this afternoon,
under somewhat better demand, the
wheat market gained some additional
strength. Spring was in good request and
winter quiet at &c advance.
Flour shows very little change. To-day
the market was quiet and trading light,
with little call from the home trade to 60
ing out reasonably we'll for shipping and
export stock. The home trade have quite
good supply of the better family brands,
and were not caring to purchase,
while shipping stock was in
light supply and going off
quite fairly. Bran and all nillstuffs were
selling to larger quantity but at lower
prices.
Corn alternated upward and downward
to-day. In this market trading was spas
modic, though the volume of business
transacted in both cash and future prop
erty was in the aggregate quite fair. The
movement, however, was irregular, and
although fluctuations were confined to
small range, price changes were more than
commonly frequent. Early the
feeling was rather weak, but the
moderate receipts returned, coupled
with the unsettled weather, subsequently
developed good start demand, which oc
casioned decided improvement in the
tone of the market. At the close prices
we're &c higher for November than at the
close of change yesterday, 1sc for year,
and shade lower for January and May.
No. and high mixed closed at &c bid, an
advance of 1c over yesterday. In the after
noon there was a brisk demand, nearly
two million bushels finding purchasers on
the call board, the bulk of which amount
was year corn. Prices were irregular,
November selling 4@3sc higher,and some
futures a shade lower than on the regular
board.
The receipts of oats were smaller and
A sew shipping and moderate speculative
demand existed. On call there was me-
dunn activity, and prices were a triae
higher. Rye was steady at the decline es-
tablished yesterday, with some little in
quiry. Barley was a shade frmer To-Day,
No. selling up 1zc. The strength acquired
is attributable to decreased receipts, the
demand being only moderate.
The offerings of hog products were quite
liberal during the early part of the day,
while the demand was not. particularly
active and prices declined materially on
all the leading articles. During the mid
die of the session the feeling was stronger,
and prices rallied again, with fair de-
mand, especially for November delivery.
Shipping demand rather light. Foreign
advices were rather unfavorable:. and lard
was quoted Sd lower. Eastern markets
were reported without material change.
The receipts of product
were fair and the shipments only moderate
The offerings of mess pork we're free early
in the day, and prices 100000 lower on the
whole range. Later the feeling was frmer
and prices rallied 15@2Oc and ruled com
paratively steady to the close. Cash quiet
