Talbot q PaImers Grain Letter
By Private Wire to Talbot & Palmer)
Chicago, November N-Wheat: Liver
pool closed about Id lower for December;
London cargoes were weak and declining;
Paris, 10 lower; Berlin, II lower. We hear
of no business for export. but there are in
dications of a better cash demand at inte-
rior points both for shipment and milling
worlds shipments are lighter, and range
from 100000 ITO 6SS0,ooo. Wheat on ocean
oassage decreased $4,000. Liquidation con-
timed in the December future, but fluctua-
tions were confined within a narrow scale
and there was a slight recovery at the
close. The declines In foreign markets and
tho near approach of delivery day were
responsible for THE weakness. Receipts at
winter wheat points still continue very
light. and there are reports of insect dam
age from scattered portions of the winter
wheat hept. The sentiment is bearish-in-
tensely SOFAS is generally the case after
10-cent decline, when the eleventh-hour
bears are largely in evidence. Purchases
ON a scale down from the present range
should prove profitable
Corn was very dull, and declined slightly.
visible Increase $4,000; shipping demand
slack There was some fairly good selling
on lower foreign markets and an expecta-
tion of Increased receipts. The grading Is
not good. There maybe slight recession
in values on which we think should be pur-
chased
provisions were quiet, but steady. Gu
daby Bros were fair buyers. Liverpool
bacon was Cd higher; hams, Is cd higher.
