CHICAGO, Oct. l3.--ln the wheat market to-day
the general situation continues about the same,
though business was much lighter than for sew
eral days past. There is a general disposition
to get out of December and trading conferred
principally in May future, especially by opera
tors who favored the short selling. A dull feel
ing prevailed. The tendency evidently was
bearish, but operators feared selling December
future. The opening did not vary much from
the closing of yesterday, with prices declining
quickly &c for December and &c for May, then
rallied INC for December. but only &c for May,
again eased off, declining NC for the former
and 4c for the latter, rallied within a moderate
range and closed &c higher for December and
3lc lower for May than yesterday Trading in
corn was confined almost entirely to local op-
orators very little outside business beng trans
acted, and the market ruled quiet most of the
session. The feeling developed early was steady
and closed a shade better than yesterday, after
fluctuating within asGp1ac range. There were
no new features, and the market was governed
entirely by. local influences. Trading in oats
was ra her less than yesterday, but a steady
feeling prevailing, with changes in value con-
fined to an unimportant range. Mess p rk was
slow and without important features. January
was offered with fair degree of freedom and
declined 71sc, rallied sc. but closed steady at
about inside figures. A light business was
transacted in lard within narrow range of
prices. Short lbs received moderate attention
and sold at a lower range of prices.
