CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET
CHICAGO. ILL, November 27.-Nothing
presenting the least appearance OF weak
ness was noticeable in the wheat market
to-day. Those who were unable TO concur
in the bullish sentiment declared their
inability 10 sell in the face Of the bullish
temper privilege but at the same time
were unwilling to espouse the buying side.
The opening was, perhaps, the easier pc
Rod Of the session, when prices showed a
temporary decline in response TO u SINH
lar tone at Liverpool The loss was quick
ly recovered, however. and during the bal
ance Of the session there was an almost
uninterrupted rise. May wheat opened at
from ~ 5-S to Sc, advanced TO Sc and
closed at 81 S-4c--l l-2c. higher than We'd
nesday. Cash wheat was strong and l-2c.
higher.
corn Was neither very SlfbHSs UpT yet
weak. but it was unquestionably dull. The
rising qualities of wheat held prices in
corn fairly steady, but the appalling pro-
portions OF stocks prevented any material
advance. May corn opened at q lac, sold
between q Is and q lie, and closed at
n 3-40H l-2c.-i-Sc. higher than Wednes-
day. Cash corn was firm and 1-4Gl-2c
higher.
oats were quiet and and steady. Wheat
conveyed a portion Of It's strength TO this,
as well as to the other grains. May oats
closed unchanged from Wednesday Cash
oats were firm, some sales being made at
an advance of lac.
Provlsions.-What firnmess appeared in
product was extended by hogs. The pack
ing for tho week, as given by the Cfncin-
natl Price Current. was 10000, against
4S) 600 for the corresponding week year
ago This was an aid to the tone OF the
product market. The close was firm. but
at a recession from the outside January
pork closed i5Gl7 l-2c. higher. January
lard l-2Ql0c. higher, and January ribs
l-2c higher.
