Chicago, Nov. 2S.-Like the business of
all sessions Immediately preceding a holt
day, to-day's trade in wheat bore the
mark of unimportance. The transactions
were for the most part for the purpose
of closing up deals, in anticipation of
any new developments before Friday The
buying was more pronounced than the sell
ing. May wheat opened from 59Ac to
$3.50, sold between 594c and 603sc and
closed at 597sa50c. Cash wheat was steady
and unchanged.
Holders of corn took a little consolation
in the fact that to-day's receipts fell be-
low the estimate. The advantage they
gained from that was further strength
ened by the improvement in wheat. Priv
ilegeS held the market within the limits
defined by them for some time, but in the
end it broke through calls and advanced
moderately. May corn opened at 4Sl2c,
ranged between 4S3sc and 49c and closed
at 4S5sc-2s@lsc higher than yesterday.
Cash corn was slow. Nothing at all was
done in the old and the new was barely
steady.
Oats-But little little variation from yes
terday's quotations on oats took place to-
day. The trade was exceedingly quiet
and entirely bare of feature. The tone
was traceable to the action of wheat and
corn. May closed &c higher than yester-
day. Cash oats were duh and steady
PrOVisiOns-BetWeen the strength of
wheat and that of live hogs at the yards
product found no available excuse for
anything but firmness. Neither the pack
ers nor the professionals were notably ac-
tive, prices holding within moderate
bounds and closing firm at a slight de-
cline from the outside January pork
showed gain of 1212c over yesterdays
and January ribs &c. Liverpool was quiet
and easy.
