Prices advanced very decidedly, but it was
on small bulges, followed in each case by
lowering of prices. when the bidding ceased
for time, Early in the day May was at
premium of about &c over December. The
tailers have let go of the latter. believing
there is no chance for q corner. The OPEN
ing price in December was the lowest Of the
day, nd the range up to p M. was $1.03ss
@1.04l2. May was unsettled and the range
was wider. The price started at S1.09l2, ssc
over last night, sold at 81 O9s4, back to
ISL .09A, and up to 81 .095s, showing l2c ad-
vance for The forenoon. 1t was about noon
that the best buying set in, and the price OF
May went mp 1c further 10 S1.10a8, reacted
o VI. IOlsc. and at l p. m. bulged up to
Sill. an advance Of nearly &c over last
night and bulge of about 4c since Tuesday
morning. Receipts have helped buyers.
Only SO cars ali told, and but 8 ears of No. 2
on the st. Paul, aside from the cars on spe-
eial track. The strength in wheat continued
to the end. May touched $l.l114 and closed
at Sl.11l5, just 2 cents over yesterday. There
was fair amount of business in corn, which
was confined to the selling out by tired longs
the covering by some shorts, who in many
eases sold again. The receipts were large and
the tendency of prices downward. Receipts
were 56S cars. November sold at 36lac
early down to SEC. and closed at 361Sc. The
furry in oats appears to be over for the pres
ent. Prices did not get beyond lac range to-
day, and the close was but little different
from yesterdays receipts, 1O3 cars. There
was good deal of interest in provisions at
the opening, and the days market was much
like that Of yesterday. Pork opened 1Oc
lower for January, and sold down to SIS. 90
CLOSING T
raid largely, though not great deal of long
pork came out around $l4. January lard
closed at $8.O2l2, and ribs at S7.17la. The
decline for the day was l7lac to zoe in Jan
uary and May pork, 55c in seller the month,
10c to lie in lard and 7l2c in ribs.
