CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, Oct. 19,-The' most notable
change in the wheat market today was an
advance of " cent per bushel in May. while
December declined Il cent That repre-
sents the style of the days operations of
the bull clique
liverpool sent very discouraging quota
ticns at the opening here more especially
for spot wheat. California was reported
I'D per Genital lower; red winter I'D. lower.
and No. 1 spring I'd. lower. Futures were
less radiclly weak, showing only 2s@1ad.
declines A private telegram said the.mar-
ket at Liverpool was depressed by exces-
sive supplies and lack of demand. This
weakness abroad was sufficient to cause
an easy feeling at the opening, December
starting at 90A m90M, as compared with yes
terday's closing price of 9l@911s cents. An
impression prevailed that the death of G..
M. Pullman would cause the selling out
of some wheat when 1t was rumored that
he was "long' at the tin.e of his death.
This helped in the opening weakness. and
the subsequent slight decline. Trading all
the morning was scattered and inconse-
quential and this fact made it easy for
news of a very ordinary character to in
t1uence prices one way or the other.
Chicago receipts were 2Q3 cars, against
PIT last year. Atlantic port exports were
equal in wheat and flour to 535. 900 bushels
A renewal of drought damage complaints
rally about an hour from the opening. and
December. which had been selling at 907s
advanced to 9lA. Then prices slowly sagged
Oft again. The bull clique in. that month
had been steadily disposng of its holdings
lately. and was a seller of December again
every time that month showed signs OF
life and uyer of May. The consequence
was a material lessening of the spread be-
tween these two options. One bulish fac
tor which was apparently overlooked was
the small increase in contract stocks for
the week. only $4,000 bushels being added
to the 3S3 900 bushels on hand. After the
advance to 91A, December eased off to
9O1a. This was followed by another ad-
vance to 91ss but liberal selling pounded
prices down again to 9OB. December closed
at 9OBd91.
Corn displayed more weakness than at
any time since the present decline began
December ranged from 26ls@251k, closing
1a@ss cent lower, at 255s.
Oats were weak with corn, selling off
81, and closing at the bottom.
Yellow fever again resumed its sway
over the provision market, and caused it
to resume the weakness 1t appeared to be
emerging from yesterday.
