Chicago Nov. S0.-There being but one
session of the wheat market prior to de-
livery day. the trade in that grain was
rather OF hating sort. The bulls we're
not prepared to push the advance further.
whilst the bears were equally averse TO
making any aggressive movement The
business was light all day and there was
little else besides evening up. After noon
weakness obtained control Of the market,
and until within few minutes of the close,
the course was downward, but on covering
there was a rally in the final moments
May wheat opened from So to S5ssc. sold
between S5A9 and S33lc, closing at Sisi-ss@
~ H4SHeI IMAM saturday. CdSl wheat
was irregular closing firm.
Corn exhibited a disposition to remain
IN a stationary position. The early strength
and later weakness Of wheat naturally
produced an impression on the feeling in
corn, but not enough to materially affect
prices. There was no trade to speak of.
local scalpers being the only people taking
any interest. May corn opened at 27ise-
sold between 263s and 26s4c, and 27isd27lkc,
closing at 267sc-i4c under yesterday Cash
corn was weak and l5c lower
oats moved indiQerently. but always in
the same course as the more important
grains. Business was slack and devoid OF
feature. May oats closed lac lower Cash
oats were firm for good, but easy and 14c
lower for poor.
ProVislons-1ogs were up 5a1Oc this
morning. Logically provisions opened
higher on the face. The early strength of
grain was material agent for causing
