Chicago, Oct IA multiplicity of bear
items on wheat enabled advocates Of low
er prices for that grain to secure an adj
vance to-day. The opening was at a loss,
/ prices at no time during the session SELL
ing up to the close Saturday. December
/ wheat opened from 59Ac to SOC, sold be-
tween 595sc and 5Sa4c, closing at 5S3sM59c-
9sc under Saturday. Cash wheat was 1c
/ per bushel lower.
Corn-The limits within which corn
/ prices ranged to-day was as narrow as
/ ever, and there was no indication that a
/ broadening was in prospect Within the
/ close boundaries, the tone displayed con-
slant sympathy with wheat May corn
opened at 29kc, declined to and closed at
2Shc-14c under Saturday. Cash corn was
| PC per bushel lower.
Oats-It was as duh in oats as on any
day since the present period of inactivity
set in. Prices tended lower, because Of
the general trend in that direction, but
/ fluctuations were very narrow. May oats
closed NC lower Cash oats were re lower
ProVisions-Trade was without strength
or activity early. At about the time of the
| cali there appeared a better demand
and as offerings showed no enlargement
prices improved to a slight extent. The
gain failed to be fully sustained, however
the close being at recessions from the
outside The weakness of wheat and also
of hogs were discouraging influences. The
close was SC higher for January pork,
shade lower for January lard and 21zc
higher for January ribs.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
