bid on the curb this morning tor December
wheat, but the moment the bell tapped for reg
uar trading it became evident there was no ne
cessity of keeping it at this figure, for if the

houses filled orders that not only supported the
market, but advanced it, irregularly, to 91!c.

withdrawn. the market became little heavy,
and ran back to 90ac. Later it responded to a
sharp bulge in pork and recovered 3c.
