Chicago, Nov. 2-With bull news that
ordinarily should have raised prices Of
wheat considerably higher, there was q
decline to-day. The Russian minister of
agriculture yesterday approXimatcd a
smaller yield for that country than last
year by 100000 bushels, but the informa-
tion was not received until after the mar
kets had closed, an advance on the curb
/ resulting from the communication. how
ever This gain was still in evidence at
the opening to-day, further confidence
being impaired by the Cincinnati Price
Current summary that the invisible sup
ply of this country on Nov. l was -, ,1000 900
bushels less than on the corresponding
date a year ago, and that the total stocks
were less by 100000 bushels than in
1893 All of the encouragement coming
from these items disappeared when the
closing Liverpool cable reporting a dc
cline Of I'd was received. The continental
markets were likewise without exception
lower. As on yesterday the December
liquidation was the feature of the trade
against which the demand was impotent.
Wheat feeding, according to the CinCin-
natl Price Current, continues, but shows
no tendency TO enlarge. May wheat opened
from 59lac to $3.50, declined 10 58Ac, clos
ing at $3.50 to 5SA-%sc under yesterday.
Cash wheat was &c lower.

The temporary strength was soon dis
solved when wheat turned weak. There
is "a belief current that with the expiration
of November and the filling Of those con-
tracts there will be a dropping of IN the
arrivals. May corn opened at 49Nc sold
between 4si4c and 4S4ac, closing al 367sc,
unchanged from yesterday Sales Of cash
corn were generally made at steady prices.
