action wheat closed 3s61zc lower than
yesterday. There was great strength ex-
hibited at times. whilst at others the
feeling approached close to weakness pri-
ces in the end having given way to puts"
where the buying against those priv
leges alone supported the market. Holders
who knew good thing when they saw it
took their profits, the selling of Tong"
stuff continuing all day. Partridge was
thought to be covering through one Of the
large commission houses, and very likely
did buy something during the session
May wheat opened from 611Ac to sac sold
between 611sc and 60&sc, closing at the in
side with the loss above mentioned. Cash
wheat was nc per bushel higher, closing
nominally easy
The corn market was firm, generally
speaking, to-day An easier tone marked
the close, however, but prices at that
time were just a shade below where they
were at the corresponding time yesterday.
"A
Election In the corn trade and some buy
ing was induced by gossip touching a pos
sibe machination in the current opinion.
There was no ground for the talk There
is but small short" interest i'm Novem-
Der, and 1T is confined principally to re-
ceiVers who have the corn already
bought in the country May corn opened
from 50Mc to J0hc, sold between Sic and
50hc, closing at 5j15M5558c. Cash corn was
steady and unchanged.
oats were firm. with no change from
yesterday i'm the closing quotations What
ever of strength was seen In the market
was an offshOot of the other grains MAY
closed at 32AC. Cash oats were strong
and nc per bushel higher.
PrOVisiOns--Thc hogs were IN enormous
supply at the stock yards to-day, and the
market was weak for most grades. but
strange TO say product was bullying and
booming most of the time. The shorts
started In to cover early, without thought
Of causing an advance. but Armour and
several other large packers had large
buying orders In the pit and offerings
suddenly became scarce, with tho natural
result OF quickly carrying prices upward
The activity attracted scalDers and pro-
fessiouals, who also took the long side
and the consequence WAS that the market
assumed a bulllHh character. Before the
close the weakness Ga wheat and realiz-
ing sales caused rcceaaiOns, but the close
was 2Dc higher Cor January pork and i0c
higher each for January lard and January
ribs.
Leading futures ranged al foIiows.
