CHICAGO, Nov. 27.-There was a sharp break in
the wheat market to-day, and, naturally, strong ex-
cItement in the pit. An increase of l.3OO,OOO
bushels in the grain ocean passage and Liverpool
cables reporting prices six pence lower formed the
occasion for large break at the opening. but the
bears contend that the large bulls had finally grown
tired holding the market up and were throwing their
holdings. The suddenness with which the market
declined brought out large lots of wheat on stop
orders from exhausted margins. The result was a
carnival for the bears The December option started
in at $3.50, l9c lower than at the close Wednes
day and kept declining, with Slight reactions until
the price touched "a 2c which the bottom for the
day The receipts continued free and with
a light export movement, and the shutting
down of the -four mills another large increase in the
visible supply was counted upon, all of which tended
TO increase the nervousness of holders. Trading
tered mostly in January and May deliveries In the
afternoon there a rebound from inside prices,
December advancing to 54c and closing at that fig
ure There was fair speculative trade in corn, and
the market ruled weak and lower, sympathizing in
great part with the decline in wheat and provisions
Ihe estimated receipts for tomorrow quite large.
