Chicago, Nov. 2O.-An unconfirmed ru-
NOR of the death of the Sultan Of Tur-
terday afternoon, was the means Of ad-
vancing wheat on the curb. and with the
gain which was then secured still adher-
ing to prices, the market opened this
morning. The scalpers and floor traders
were disposed to work for a further APP
precia ton in values at the start but were
soon convinced that efforts in that direc-
ton were futile, after which the trend OF
the market was downward. Wall street
was said to be good seller. but taking
the entire days business INTO considera-
ton, the trade was far below an ordi nary
days transactions. December wheat op-
ened from 57l2c to 57l2Q5l9sc, declined to
57lsc, closing at 51Ac-a shade lower thar
yesterday. Cash wheat was quiet and
steady.
Corn-The range showed nucua tions
covering re, but the bulk OF the trading
was at one quotation. Weakness was
the predominating tone, although the op-
ening was quite firm orders either to
buy or sell were something of curiosity
and a trader who had ono was quite an
important person. The feeling of wheat
extended to corn, and ruled the action Of
prices. May corn opened at 298sc, sold al;
29Ac, where it closed-1sc under yester-
day. Cash corn was quiet and uncha nged
Oats-About noon there was quite &
gathering in the oats pit, and from a dis
lance it looked like an excited market
but upon a near approach it was evident
that there was more noise than business
May was freely offered at 205hd2O5k T22lac
bid, but trades were few. The balance OF
the session was undisturbed by any incl
dent. May oats closed a shade under yes
terday.
Professionally way Of a change there
was rather a lively time during a portion
of the morning. A prominent scaIper en-
Iivened proceedings by selling and offer
ing freely. his efforts accomplishing q
decline although moderate one
throughout the list. Hogs were quoted
hrmer. but product derived no beneny
from that decision. At the close January
pork was TIC lower. January lard 2isc
lower. January ribs Sc lower.
Leading futures ranged as follows.
