CHICAGO, Nov. THE wheat market devel-
oped unexpected strength to-day. The opening
was easy and the feeling was one of heaviness
during the first hour, with prices huctuatlng be-
tween Sic and S7sc for December. The offer
ings were light however, and on the announce
ment that receipts at primary points showed
b,
good buying set in. which carried December up
to 884c, closing in the latest trading
at 8Ss 0884c. The foreign advices con,
tanned very little of an encouraging nature
for holders, but the home9 situation was consid-
cred stronger and encouraged good buying both
on local and Eastern account. The receipts
here were again small, with only small pro-
portion of the cars grading regular. The mar
ket closed for the week Il 0l4c higher for cash
wheat than one week ago. There was a very
urgent demand for cash corn, and the price ad-
vanced at one time BIC over yesterday,
but reacted, and finally closed for
the day 1ac higher than yesterday.
The receipts continue light. The market for
No 2, cash, opened at 43c against 424c at the
closing yesterday, and advanced briskly to 45Ac,
with possibly few sales at 45ca, but fell back
and closed in the latest trading at 44c The
trading in futures was also more active, with
prices / a &c higher The speculative demand
for oats was also good, prices ruling firm but
making no particular advance Mess pork was
strong and active, advancing 15c, due in part to
