CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. I5-The bears were on
top in the grain pits this morning The news
was all in their favor, and they improved their
opportunities to slug prices, and especially in
corn. with the result OF decided slump in the
value of that article though there was u par
tiai recovery later, while wheat reacted and
closed higher. a: one time during the session
wheat was as weak as corn but later on was
stubbornly contested. The most surprising
thing is that with the lead the bears were in
early trading there was not 4 more marked de-
CliEe.
Fog products were strong and higher. The
recent heavy reduction in prices has created
very considerable short interest which looks
for . reaction and is inclined to cover. The
close shows an advance of ~ cents in pork, 10
cents in lard and 10l12ls cents in ribs.
