Chicago Change,

Chicago, IL, Nov. 6-The bull temper of the wheat market was uncomfortable to- day. Strong at the start, it was stronger in the middle and it was trongest at the close. Yesterdays weakness was forgot ten and the sentiment underwent complete and radical transformation. Everything in the way of news was called bullish and if it was not so literally it became so by argument anyway. All the professionals, prominent recently were buyers today. Gu advanced from 57c to 79Ac was again at the head of the bull forces and the recognized tailers were with him. At 1 o'clock the climax was reached, December touching 7Sssc, an advance of 41ac from yesterdays close. December wheat opened from 75c to 75Ac, sold between 747sc and 7Sasc, closing at !SG7S1sc-37sQ4c higher than yesterday. Cash wheat was up co.
 Corn was urged upwards by the strength of the speculative tone of the larger mar ket. May corn opened from 2812c to 2S2sc, sold between 2SAc and 291sc, closing at 29GD 291sc-s447sc higher than yesterday. Cash corn was teady to Ac higher
 Oats partook of the firmness of wheat, but were lacking in activity so that prices moved in a sluggish manner. May oats closed 12@5sc higher than yesterday. Cash oats were firm to Ac higher. The best that could be said of provisions was that they were steady. The run of hogs was light and that market was strong. This, with the rising quality of wheat, su1sced Dc higher, January lard unchanged and Jam uary ribs 21ac higher.
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Cotton Letter.

 New York, Nov. 6.-(SpeeiaL) 1.-The market today closed quiet and steady at an improye> ment of a few points as compared with yesterdays closing. Liverpool opened at a sharp decline, in consequence, it is said of cables from New Orleans claiming that the crop will exceed 9,000,G00 bales. It may be noted that some heavy wagers have been offered here on behalf of New Or> leans parties that the crop will be over GOO bales
 The heavy receipts, together with these offers, have somewhat shaken the faith of the bulls in small crop, but the inte- rior receipts today rather disappointed the bears and January, which had opjened upon the depressing Liverpool advices at 7.92, rallied to sos and reacted on realizing sales, closing at 7.9SQ799. It is the simple truth that nobody here knows whether the mar ket will go up or down, but it would be very easy for anybody to tell who could foresee how the receipts will run.
