CHICAGO.
CHICAGO. October 30.-To-day marked the
| elimination OF the big deal IN ribs OF the Board
OF Trade, and when the gong sounded the hour
| for closing ribs were still sinR and Wright was
| still prophet. The pit was damned during tho
| last quarter of an hour the general expectation
being that the shorts wold come in ami attempt
| to fix price by "wash y sales. General expec-
tation was wrong, however, as the shorts dill
nothing OF the sort. and the great deal culmi-
mated without ripple of excitement. Tho
| dicatlons were that the shorts had practically
| all settled, netting Messrs Cudnhy and Wright
| about 81, 900, 900. The deal was the outgrowtn
| OF an attempt by the packers to break Wright,
| who was long" at the time OF the cholera
! scare. Wheat cloeed sac. higher, notwithstand-
| ing big receipts and very close approach 10
! the heaviest visible supply ON record. Corn
| gained from Sc. to re. over Saturdays closing
| rates. Outside Of October ribs provisions were
| weak and lower.
