CHICAGO, Oct GIN wheat moderate busi
ness was reported. There was nothing new in
the general situation and market a local one
with outside influences apparently having little
with sales from Nc below to M@1ac above yes
terday's closing figures, then advanced with
some fluctuations 102c above early inside
figures, with May taking the lead and at times
ruled 1c over December. The closing was about
NC higher for December and 134c higher for
May than yesterday. Corn was traded in mod
eratey at lower range of prices, the feeling
prevailing being one of easiness. Opening sales
were about Nc under the closing prices of yes
terday, when offerings became quite heavy and
the market gradually declined &c, reacted sc,
ruled easy and closed ss034c lower than yester-
day. Oats were neglected, aside from small
business in May. Prices were about The same
as yesterday, with no fluctuations Mess pork
attracted little attention early in the day and
January delivery was advanced 15020c: later
the market ruled quiet and prices declined 2l6
M5c. Lard was only moderately active and the
feeling was somewhat unsettled. The early
market was stronger and prices ruled 2lk@5c
higher, but soon settled back again and ruled
quiet to the close. In short rib sides trading
was moderate, with the bulk of purchases by a
prominent local operator. Prices ruled 21505c
higher and closed rather steady.
