CHICAGO, Oct. 24-The wheat market closed
for the week at the lowest prices current during
the month of October, and 54c lower for the
leading options than at the close one week ago.
The market opened steady, with good buying,
under which December advanced to $3.50 and re-
dht'AS0 EIDoAN ob tAoV hSoLO " LdC ALoU AONA.
Several estimates were then made as to the
probable increase which would be shown in the
next visible supply report, one house estimating
that the increase would be nearly 5000, 600
bushels. This produced an immediate feeling
of weakness, and to the close of the session the
offerings were very large, under which
the price for December declined to $500,
and closed in the latest trading at
pressure to sell was very sharp throughout the
entire session, and the decline was almost steady,
with very few reactions. The receipts showed
a falling off at all except points,
but were reported large at Minneapolis. In
spite of the large arrivals at the latter point. it
was reported that the millers had advanced their
bids one cent for wheat, which occasioned a
temporary feeling of frmness, but it stayed the
period. The cables reported quiet foreign
markets, with no appreciable change
in prices. Corn was in fair
demand, and prices early were frmer, but weak
ness followed toward the close and the market
closed generally a shade lower. Oats ruled firm,
owing to light receipts and a good shipping de-
mand, and the latest prices were generally well
up to those of yesterday. Provisions were weak
er, and both pork and lard closed fractionally
lower.
Flour was quiet and unchanged.
Wheat opened steady, but the feeling soon
became weak and the market fell off 25c from
outside figures, closing &c under yesterday.
