hour, but It looked as If the upward move

the year were made on pork, while ribs and

TRADE RATHER SLOW.
A Light Demand and Gloomy Weather
Make Monday Unusually Blue-Grain
Firm and Higher and Other Staples
About Unchanged.
MONDAY, Nov. %.

MONDAY, Nov. 28
Business was dull and featureless in
wholesale mercantile lines to-day, the usual
Monday quietude being intensified by the
gloomy, threatening weather. Grain con-
tinued to show strength, but other staples
were unchanged.
The butter market continues in a very
active condition, receipts of choice quality
for some time past not being up to require
ments. Especially is this the case with
creamery, which has a steady demand at
improvieg prices. Fancy country and dairy
goods also wanted, with present indications
tavoring higher range ere long.
Live chickens are good stock now and so
are ducks, but there is little or no call for
turkeys and geese. The market last week
was overstocked with dressed poultry. Con-
siderable was left over. and at present there
Is no demand.
Cabbage continues to come in pretty
freely. but good solid stock finds ready buy
ers on arrival; large quantities are still
wanted, and liberal shipments should be
made now while weather is favorable
Onions in good supply; demand not so active
being done and prices holding steady.
Fancy, well bleached celery has q good
movement, receipts liberal, but prices
unchanged Winter vegetables OF all
kinds-carrots. turnips parsnips etc.-have
a good movement at prices noted when of
choice quality.
Game in pretty good supply to-day, but
choice lines of all descriptions is finding a
good sale at prices quoted. Demand will con-
tinue good for all desirable lines that reach
here in attractive shape and for such full
prices may be relied upon.
An excellent demand for good sound hay
of all varieties prevails No. l timothy,
clover. timothy and clover mixed and upland
prairie is quite active, and good No. sells
better than in previous years. but the low
grades are hard to dispose of, as heretofore.
Dealers are not looking for any advance at
Elgin, but the market is strong and a slight
advance would not surprise them very
much.

BIG ADVANCES
In Wheat and Provisions-Corn and Oats
Also Higher.
sEx-dividend.

Also Higher.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2s.-Wheat advanced nearly
q cent to-day. The impression seemed to be
that prominent traders in provisions had
paid more attention to wheat of late than to
hog product and that there might be an
effort to give "shorts" squeeze. Realizing
sales reduced the gain in prices to &c at the
close. Corn closed 3z67ac higher than on
Saturday. Provisions were buoyant Com
pared with Saturday night, pork is up acc
lard 25c and ribs zoe.
Wheat was strong almost from the start,
Notwithstanding the receipts in the North.
the corresponding day last year-and cables
were easier. Receipts at all primary points
were large, and though the increase in the
visible supply was not SO large as for some
weeks past, it still showed a gain OF nearly
l,250 600 bushels, bringing the stocks up to
IL 600 600 bushels, larger than ever known
before. In the face or this the market sold
steadily up. The firmness seemed to be due
to the sharp advance in the provision mar
ket and to reports most industtiousy circu-
lated that Cudahy. Wright and other pro-
vision operators had turned to the bullish
side of wheat and were heavy buyers. Late
in the day Linn sent bullish news from
Southern Illinois regarding wheat. Champ
Northeast dispatches reported a sudden
drop in receipts at couu try elevators, though
other dispatches were of a different tenor.
Corn was influenced by the strength in
wheat and provisions. There was not much
for sale and as shorts were nervous and dis
posed to cover sellers had the advantage
Another strengthening factor was the de-
crease in the visible supply, and the rains
over the Southwest were expected to check
the shipments of new corn.
fair business was conducted in oats with
options closing fraction higher.
Provisions scored good advance the first

advanced from 413s@421f, and the remain
der of the list improved 1s@3s per cent
The rise was due, as much as to anything
else, to the fact that bankers who usually
ship gold expressed themselves as being in
doubt as to whether any large amount OF

previous to the close prices reacted 1s@H

The industrial group was strong, espe-
cially Sugar, Distilling and Cattle Feeding
