fed to moderate range the trading was
very brisk. Had it not been for favorable
markets elsewhere and the strength shown
in wheat there would have been q further
decline, the opening was frmer, but under
liberal offerings there was quick decline
of 30 20, followed by rally of Ac, more
weakness and close 15@56c under Satur-
day. On the call offerings were increased
and the near futures declined I &c further,
the feture deliveries losing 1ac. Novem-
Der ends the day at 1850 bid; year 1890.
A million and quarter bushels sold on
the call at this reduction. There has
been good demand for cash corn, es-
pecially for the rejected grade. The ship
ments out were nearly 100000 bushels, and
to charters $4,000 bushels.
Oats have rested firm. There was q
good shipping demand, and on the sample
market trade was brisk. On the regular
or speculative market only moderate
business was done, for operators were in
light attundan ce. The offerings were no.
ticed to be light, and a steady feeling was
manifested. There was no afternoon weak
ening with ocru. Receipt were heavy
over $50 cars, bat the shipments Offset this
being $4,000 bushels and $4,000 bushels
chartered.
Rye was firm and slightly better. A fair
speculative demand existed, but shipping
orders were light. There were liberal offer
ings of cash rye, 113 cars arriving to-day,
but future offerings we're only moderate.
The near option show little change, but
the longer deliueries rrnged higher.
Better grades of barley in good demand
and firmer, with shade better prices.
The season for mailing is very near at
hand, and show outside orders increasing.
Buyers are very particular, however, and
only want good heavy and bright barley,
leaving the lower grades or light and
stained very dull. No. 2 was 1@2c higher
to-day, and No also better.
Trading in provisions was mainly on
speculative account. Offerings were not
particularly large, and the demand not
particularly active. Foreign advices in
dicated no particular change in that
quarter, and the eastern markets we're
comparatively steady. The receipts of
product were moderate and shipments
of all kinds quite liberal.
Fluctuations in prices ruled within
wide range, and on the whole
higher, particularly for the more de-
ferred deliveries. The shipping demand
was moderate. At the close the market
was quiet and prices ruled easier again.
Pork was rather quiet early and showed
little change. Later there was a short ex
hibition of strength, and prices advanced
10@15c ruling comparatively easy to the
close. On the call half the advance was
lost. Lard was steadier, with great active
trading. During the latter part of the
session prices advanced 5@10c, but reced-
ed 215@5c on the call. The shipping in
quiry was moderate.
At the stock yards the receipts of cattle
were liberal, and with moderately active
demand by local buyers, and also by ship
pers, prices ruled steady and without
quotable change from Saturday for COWS,
butchering steers and shipping steers.
There was moderately active demand for
hogs by spectators and packers at the
opening of the market, and prices ruled
firm. at trife higher than Saturdays
figures. Shippers from Boston and other
points were purchasing.
