too. This left the market devoid OF specu-
lative support and the feeling was weak From
s6 cents November wheat fell to 1858 and then reSaned
all its loss.
There was decided stffen1ng Of prices in the pro
vision pit and this helped grain some. IL was said this
morning that outsiders selling pork the little
