CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO. November 4-In the event
of McKinleys election a boom IN wheat
was predicted. and for weeks those VINO
were confident that the result would oe
as IL Is have been buying wheat on tne
assumption that the rise must necessarily
FOLLOW Az late as Monday several lines
were purchased with this IN view Liver
nool had the news before that market
opened and pushed the prices UP 10
on the information. The curD, or unoih-
cial. price here was 20 l-oc. over Moi
davis close. but a reaction or l-2dlc. oc-
Cured before the regular market opened
At the start, offerings We're very free'
and q further break OF about &c. fesulteu'
Afterwa rds the market was rather ner :
vOus advancing 70 the best hgures or

sold between II 5-S and 76 l-Sc, and closed
at rs 1-2c.-l l-2dl $50. higher than Mon
dav. Cash wheat was 1-2Q2c. higher.

light Scalpers We're on both sides or the
market. but commission men were doing
little. May corn opened at from y IL 70
29c. declined 10 IS 5Sc., and closed at
Is 3-Sc.-3-Sal-2c. under Monday Cash
corn was steady.
oats. ike corn, improved slightly at the
start. as a perfunct0ry recognition OF the
wheat bulge. but did not remain long IN a
firm condition The market was slow,
generally speaking May oats closed l-sc.
under Monday. Cash oats were steady at
Mondays prices.
Provisions. weakness in the hog
market. product opened with a slight gain
over Monday, and with fairly firm tone.
No support was accorded prices, however,
and they naturally receded. a late report
of a second decline IN hog prices exercised
a depressing effect and everything depre-
ciated. January pork closed y lie: lower,
January lard l-2c. lower, ana January
ribs l-2c lower.
