The Wichita daily eagle., 1897-11-27

Chicago, Nov %-Cables opened this
nnrn-rg NC higher, causing US 20 open
ket ruled barely steady during the early
part OF the day, but the December options
soon became strong and advanced sharply
10 N.00 bushel, or about 4 cents above
the opening. The strength in December
naturally created good buying of the May
Option, which advanced TO 9Siac closing
with &c of tire advance lost only. We are
confronted with peculiar conditions. EX-
ports arc fairly liberal, $1,000 bushels. Re-
ceipts In the northwest for two days were
about 1,500 oars, against 500 for one day
year ago. Minneapolis reports a big de-
mand for December. Second cables were
Slightly lower, but this had no effect on
our market. The general trade for fiouer
hse been duiler this week than usual. The
closing tonight however. has the ear
marks OF q strong market, and while we
feel that the advance is fought for the time
being, we may get higher prices tomorrow.
The situation abroad certainly seems
strong. yet the interior receipts are keeping
pace with the demands and the price is
by no means low. Corn barely ruled
steady and seemed to gather no strength
ly to the long side OF corn on weak places.
Provisions were only q shade higher. Bro
kers who usually buy provisions for pa ck-
ers seemed TO be the buyers today This
confirms our feeling that the packers are
friendly TO the product around these prices.
Barrett was heavy buyer Of wheat all
day.
