Chicago, Nov. H.-There was more bus
mess in the wheat market to-day than
has been seen in long time. The senti-
ment was unanimously bearish and the
spectacle of time-honOred bulls selling
short was witnessed. There was heavy
liquidation in December and considerable
changing from that month into May To-
ward the end of the session it was learned
that Wall street was selling out its wheat
holdings on the New York Produce Elk
change, and that the northwest was offer
ing freely on May and July at that place
This gave the close here more pronounc-
ed weakness than had even been noted
earlier. December wheat opened at SIC
declined to 56bG56Ac, closing at 56h-1c
under yesterday. Cash wheat sold at 1ac
decline from yesterday. The close being
nominally a full cent lower.
There was a decline in corn. 1t was not
great but nevertheless, it indicated the
cereal. The weakness was naturally the
result of the decline in wheat, but the pop-
ular belief is that the crop of 1895, when
1t begins to move. VIII exercise such a
ent quotations will seem high by compar-
ison. There are contingencies which may
prevent the expected drop, but the crowd
considers them remote. May corn open
ed at 29Ac, declined to 29u29lsc, where it
closed, 1s0114c under yesterday. Cash corn
was Nc lower for No. 2 but steady for
other grades.
Oats-As was the case with the other
grains, lower quotations were established
in oats. The trade presented no new fea-
lures, and prices moved slowly but in
downward direction Nav closed de
under yesterday. Cash oats were steady
ProVisons-Like grain, provisions de-
clined. The weakness of wheat affected
product with just as much force as it did
the other grain markets. Added to this
there was a declining tendency to the hog
market, which was not overlooked by
the trade. January pork closed 10 cents
lower; January lard, 5Gl7l2c lower and
January ribs, sc lower
Leading futures ranged as follows:
Opening Highest. Lowest Closing
