CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, November 3O.-wheat was duh and
weak during most Of the session. The bulls we're
timid, while the bears were having the best Of II
on the news. They were confident and inclined
10 DO aggressive. Cables were weak and lower,
with 90 nestle markets also tending downward.
Indications pointed 10 a largo Increase In the
visible supply, while the local receipts were
largely In excess Of the estimates, and the North
western deliveries we're also liberal Consider
able long wheat came on the market, and this
with the short sales caused lower range IN
prices during the forenoon. May started at
DS}zc. and December at eI9lc., but there we're
free sellers, and there was gradual decline 10
gS3sc. for May aad 9lMc. for December. Later
there was a moderate reaction and May sold
back To 9SS4c. and December 10 9l4sc. Near the
close there was renewed weakness, Decem Der
selling 20 0l4sc. ald May - 9sssc. Corn Was
something OF a surprise TO those who had OK
pected collapse Ia the November squeeze, Tor
the weakness which was such n ntnent fea-
sure Saturday had entirely disappeared. Trans
actions in that month, however, continued very
limited, The closing price Of Saturday
was CSC. The irBt sale to-day was at zoe. Then
there was a iOlg wait without any trade, and
cnally 74c. Was paid. Then Toe was secured
tor some. and that was the closing price. The
identity Of the leading shorts, II there we're any,
was not disclosed. December opened at 1910,
against 1850. at the close ON Saturday, sold NJ
1850, touched 1910, and closed q. 1880. May
fuctuated within range Of 9c. Oats were quiet
and featureless till late In the session, wnen COW
ering by the shorts sent November from 32h %
349sc., closing at 34a34I6c. May was steady az
323zc. 20 329sc There was very heavy run Of
hogs at the stOok-yards this morning, and prices
ere lower. Hog products were consequently
lower, IN sympathy. at the opening, but shorts
covered rather freely, causing q recovery, aud
tl,s close was at HnimpOrtant changes from the
last prices OF Saturday.
